Trying New Skincare From Yes To and H2O+ Beauty!

Hi all! It is almost fall, how’s your skin doing? My skin always needs a detox from summer. Great exfoliation and masks help clear up sun damage and clogged pore and get skin ready for cooler weather and more glam makeup for the fall and holidays!.

The masks are left to right Yes to Tomatoes Acne Fighting Bubbling Mask, Yes to Tomatoes Anti-Pollution Detoxifying Charcoal Bubbling Paper Mask, Yes to Coconut Energizing Coffee 3-in-1 Mask, Scrub and Cleanser, Yes to Cucumers Soothing 3-in-1 Mask, Scrub and Cleanser. Plus for the scalp and hair, the Yes to Superblueberries Smoothing Hair Clay Mask and the Yes to Tea Tree Soothing Hair Clay Mask.

My skin is combination and aging, so the acne mask isn’t for me, but the anti-pollution one is really nice. I do have large pores, so this helped. I love both of the 3-in-1 masks. I love a good scrub. I leave these on my skin for a few minutes, then add a bit of water, massage it in my skin and rinse. My skin is so soft!

The hair clay masks are really cool, too! They are a creamy clay. You can apply them before or after shampooing in the shower. You comb them through your hair then leave them on for 5 minutes. They both worked well for me. The soothing one did make my scalp feel better and the smoothing one helped with frizz!

The other three products in the photo above are the Yes to Tomatoes Anti-Pollution Detoxifying Charcoal Bubbling Wipes, Yes to Coconut Energizing Coffee 2-in-1 Scrub & Cleanser Stick, Yes to Grapefruit Vitamin C Glow Boosting SnapMask Stick.

I love the wipes! They do bubble up once you start using them. They clean so well, too! The Yes to Coconut coffee stick scrub is very gentle (and smells amazing)! It is hydrating as well as exfoliating. The grapefruit stick is a mask, just rub it on, let is set and rinse off! It really brightens the skin and leaves it glowing!

I also received these H2O+ Beauty products:

H2O+ Beauty Teak Rose On the Move Intensive Hand Cream, H2O+ Beauty Coconut Verbena Shimmering Body Moisturizer, H2O+ Beauty Sea Greens Body Scrub, H2O+ Beauty Rapids Soothing Probiotic Bubble Mask.

H20+ Beauty products always smell amazing! The Teak Rose hand cream is so hydrating! The scent is a soft floral. The shimmering body moisturizer is very fresh and citrusy and gives the skin a soft glow.

I love the fresh Sea Greens scent. The scrub is great for exfoliating the body. It’s not too abrasive. I have tried the soothing probiotic bubble mask before. It’s really eassy to used. Just apply a thick layer on the skin and it will bubble up! Once the bubbles dissipate, I rinse it off and my skin is calm and smooth. There’s at least two applications in the pouch, too!

New Hydrating Skincare For Fall!

Hi All! I love trying new skincare and have recently received some amazing products for my honest review. My skin is combination and aging. I do get some break outs in my t-zone, but I wouldn’t say my skin is oily. I have a few fine lines and enlarged pores.

These products are perfect for fall. They hydrate and keep skin looking fresh, even as it tuns colder. Also, I tend to wear more makeup in the cooler weather and the following products help keep skin soft and moisturized:

IT Cosmetics Miracle Water 3-in-1 Tonic

Use it after cleansing or in place of cleanser for powerful results immediately and over time.

I love micellar water, anything that cleanses well and is easy to use is awesome! This quickly removes my makeup. It feels light on and leaves my skin clean without stripping it of moisture. And I love all of the anti-aging benefits it has!

IT Cosmetics Secret Sauce ($68 USD) — Developed with plastic surgeons, Secret Sauce™ immediately hydrates and transforms skin!

Skinbetter Science Hydration Boosting Cream ($80 USD) — This award-winning moisturizer indulges your skin in hydrating botanical lipids and ceramides, providing a velvety finish. Reduces moisture loss while delivering immediate and long-lasting hydration.

When I pat it into my under eye, it almost dissolves like a liquid. It’s very hydrating and smooths out fine lines under my eyes.

Get Great Skin With YourGoodSkin!

Hi all! I’m so excited to be reviewing YourGoodSkin! It is a fairly new skincare range developed by a team of leading dermatologists to restore skin’s natural balance. Powered by a unique antioxidant complex of Green Tea and Vitamin C, it gently works to visibly improve skin’s health in just 28 days. It claims to help with oiliness, dryness, texture, tone and radiance. YourGoodSkin is now at Ulta and www.yourgoodskin.com.

I was sent the following products for my honest review:

Anti-Oxidant Day Cream SPF 30 ($12.99 USD) — I like to use a day moisturizer that has SPF so I don’t have to use two products. I do have a hard time finding one that isn’t too heavy. This cream sinks into my skin quickly and is pretty light. I apply it over the Balancing Skin Concentrate in the morning. Primer and foundation layer nicely over it. This product will work well all year long.

Balancing Skin Concentrate ($19.99 USD) — This is YourGoodSkin’s hero product. The claim is that it restores and maintains skin’s natural balance for clinically proven visibly healthier skin in just 28 days. For all skin types. Designed to improve the 5 key signs of visibly healthy skin:

Skin texture
Moisture levels
Oiliness
Skin tone evenness
Radiance

I’ve tried this before and really like it! It’s a light cream serum that absorbs quickly and leaves my skin very soft! My skin is combination and this glides evenly over my oily and dry areas of my skin. I’ve notices that my skin texture and tone look more even with use.

Soothing Micellar Cleanser ($7.49 USD) — I love micellar cleanser if it isn’t oily or heavy. Luckily, this one is light and cleanses so well! Micelles gently trap & lift make-up, excess oil & daily impurities. This removes my makeup easily without leaving a residue.

Moisturizing Make-Up Remover Wipes ($7.49 USD) — super-soft and gently clear away make-up and daily impurities. Skin looks healthy and feels instantly fresh. For comforted radiant skin. I like to use this before the Micellar Cleanser. They are also nice to take on trips. The wipes are very hydrating, so this probably isn’t the best product for oily skin.

Comforting Gel Cleanser ($7.49 USD) — This transforming gel gently melts away make-up, excess oil & daily impurities. I like using this cleanser in the morning for a fresh face at the start of the day. It also works well for removing stubborn makeup.I like how it cleans without drying out my skin.

Have you heard of this brand or even tried YourGoodSkin? What do you think?

New (To Me) Anti-Aging Skincare

I have been testing new skin care products I was sent for my honest review. I love trying skincare to add to my daily routine. I think anti-aging skincare really helps my skin looks smoother and younger.

There are the current products I’m using:

Yes to Peel Off Masks Review

Hi all! July is almost over, can you believe it? I’ll be posting my July favorites soon, but today I am reviewing fun peel off masks from Yes to. I was sent these for my honest review.

I love peel masks. These help to target impurities, while helping hydrate, calm and brighten skin. Each mask is made with 95% or more natural ingredients, formulated without parabens, SLS and silicones and is Leaping Bunny Certified.

Each mask is $2.99 and you can purchase at yesto.com. Here is the info on the masks and what I thought:

Yes To Cucumbers Calming Peel-Off Mask
Cucumber: A soothing vegetable extract to calm skin

Yes To Coconut Energizing Coffee Peel-Off Mask
Coconut: A tropical moisturizer.
Coffee: Helps skin look tighter.

Yes To Tomatoes Detoxifying Charcoal Peel-Off Mask — Formulated with charcoal and tomato extract to help peel away impurities and excess oil, this LBM
(Little Black Mask) helps leave skin naturally clear.
Charcoal: A natural detoxifier and impurity remover to deep clean skin.

Yes To Grapefruit Vitamin C Glow-Boosting Peel-Off Mask
Grapefruit: Rich in vitamin C and lycopene (antioxidant heavy hitters), it naturally helps visibly even skin tone and enhances glow.

Directions: Smooth an even layer of the mask over clean forehead, cheeks, nose and chin, avoiding the eye area, eyebrows and hairline. Build up an edge around the mask. Relax until the mask is fully dry, at least 8 to 10 minutes, then lift edges and start peeling! Rinse off any remaining pieces and moisturize.

I tried all of these except for the charcoal one. My teenage daughter tried it and like it. It cleaned out her pores and left her skin smooth!

The three I tried all smelled amazing! Really fresh, natural scents. And they did what they claimed. I have sensitive skin and the cucumber mask calmed and hydrated my skin.

The coffee/coconut mask was also hydrating and my skin was smooth after I used it. The grapefruit mask did brighten my skin, but irritated it a bit. Which is fine, the redness went away a few minutes later.

I think that these are so nice and affordable. They were kind of hard to peel off, so building up an edge on the the outer part of the face is a good idea. And I try to do a thick layer, but it does take longer to dry.

If peel off masks aren’t your thing, Yes to has lots of other types of makes including sheet, bubble and mud masks. Check them out!

New Summer Products From H2O+ Beauty

Hi all! This is the second part of my recent H2O+ Beauty review on new products. I received these for my honest review.

I really like H2O+ Beauty because the brand is built on the philosophy that effective skincare doesn’t need to be complicated. And they have leveraged the hydrating power of pure water. I love that the products are natural and I have really enjoyed the skin care and body care products I have used.

Here are the products I received:

H2O+ Elements Jelly Cleanser ($20 USD) — This is such a fun cleanser! It contains Argan Oil and Pearl extract and transforms from a bouncy jelly texture into a foam. It has a clean scent and doesn’t dry out my skin.

H2O+ Oasis Smart Tint LipColor ($12 USD) — A self-adjusting lip color that complements all complexions with a custom shade. I use the darker side for a soft blush shade, and the lighter side for a layer of shimmer. This is so pretty! And it’s a perfect light look for summer.

H2O+ Waterbright Massaging Eye Roller ($28 USD) — A massaging rollerball that helps reduce dark circles and puffiness of the delicate under eye area. The gel is cooling and hydrating. It features Pomelo, Snowflake Flower extracts and caffeine to helps reduce dark circles and puffiness while illuminating pigments instantly brighten my skin.

H2O+ On The Move Rollerball Fragrance ($18 each) — This is a water based fragrance that hydrates skin and adds a hint of shimmer. The two scents are:

Teak Rose — The light yet exotic wood fragrance showcases bergamot and orange blossom highlighted by aromatic rose and finished with dry notes of golden amber.

Lemongrass Vetiver — The alluring sparkling lemongrass scent features clean citrus notes of lemon, heightened by a ginger freshness and tempered by fresh grass.

I think the Teak Rose is my favorite, it’s kind of a smokey-rose scent. It’s fresh and sultry. The Lemongrass Vetiver is okay, it is a fresher scent, but not my favorite. These are fun to wear, especially if you like shimmer in the summer. And it’s nice that you can take these on the go.

Have you tried any new H2O+ Beauty products? Which ones are you favorites?

New Summer Releases From Pixi Beauty

I was so lucky to receive some new Pixi by Petra Products for my honest review. I got a fun mix of skincare and makeup.

The first three products are some amazing Skintreats. The first one I want to talk about is the Retinol Tonic (now on the website, in the middle of the photo above).

This is not on the website yet, but I did get some PR materials about it. It will retail for $15 and is 3.4 fl. oz. It features a unique time-release Retinol to help rejuvenate the skin for a natural glow. Powerful antioxidants and botanicals replenish the skin for a smoother, softer appearance.

I have only been using this and the other two Skintreats for about a week, but I am enjoying it. It doesn’t have much of a scent, so if you are sensitive to scent, this is a good choice. I apply it every night before serum and moisturizer and I like how smooth my skin looks in the morning! I will keep using and report what results I see.

There are also two new products in the Rose Skintreats line — Rose Ceramide Cream and Rose Glow Mist:

Rose Ceramide Cream ($24 USD) — This ultra-rich cream is infused with Ceramides and Rose Oil to deeply hydrate the skin for a healthier, more supple appearance and feel. Antioxidant-rich botanicals help to improve skin’s elasticity while protecting against environmental aggressors.

This is a very hydrating cream. A little goes a long way. I over did it the first time I used it and it felt a little heavy. For me, this is a night cream. In the morning, my skin is well hydrated. It has a soft floral scent and smells really nice.

Rose Glow Mist ($15 USD) — Infused with 7 types of Rose Flower extracts and antioxidants, this lightweight mist helps soothe and strengthen the skin. Helping to moisturize, improve elasticity and provide free radical protection, skin’s complexion is left with a naturally enhanced glow.

I’m in love with this mist! I use this after cleansing and before serums and moisturizer. I also use it over makeup for a little hydration and glow. It smells like fresh roses and gives my skin a healthy glow. LOVE!

These are the stunning PixiGlow Cakes ($28 each) –This light-diffusing palette helps to achieve a naturally healthy, radiant complexion with flushed apples of the cheeks, subtle contouring and glowing highlights. The shades in the gradient make it easy to create a sheer wash of luminous colour that enhances your PixiGlow!

This comes in two shades, GildedBare Glow on the left in the photo above and the PinkChampagne Glow on the right.

Here is a swatch of the GildedBare Glow. It’s kind of hard to see, but I swatched the lightest end, in the middle and the darker end.

This is very shimmery/glittery, but when applied it gives a glow and the glitter doesn’t show on my face. I tried it two ways: swirling a big fluffy brush in it and applying it all over my cheek, and applying the lightest end as highlighter, the middle as blush and the darkest end as bronzer. Both ways are so pretty, but I think I like applying it all together. It gives a gorgeous flush! The more bronze end doesn’t work well bronzing the rest of my face, though. It’s way too shimmery!

I have to say, though, I really recommend this. It can be built up easily and gives my face the perfect summer glow!

This is the LashLift 188 Mascara in Beyond Black ($15 USD) — This unique 2-in-1 dual chamber contains a larger wand for volume and a finer precision wand to coat every one of your +188 lashes. Together, the brushes create volume, length and curl for an eye-opening effect and the ultimate false-lash look!

Here is how it looks with both of the wands. I use it this way first and it gives great volume.

Here is what the smaller wand looks like when removed from the larger one. I have never seen anything like this before!

I use the skinny wand to define my lashes and on my lower lashes. It works really well! All in all, this is a great mascara. It doesn’t smudge or flake. I really like this and will continue to use it.

I am really liking all of these products. I will continue testing out the skincare, but so far are enjoying using them — especially the mist. The GlowCakes are perfect for the summer and I will be using both of them. The mascara is really fun to use and gives a dramatic look.

What do you think of these products? Will you be picking any of them up?

Brand Review — Studio Selection line at Dollar General

Hi all! I am reviewing a new line of beauty products at Dollar General called Studio Selection. It is a range of products that includes skincare, body care and hair care. The products are dupes of other brand name products, and let you know on the package what products they claim to be like.

I received a gift card to purchase a few products for my honest review. I got all of the Studio Selection products that were in stock at my local store at the time, but there are a lot more to choose from online. Here is what I picked up:

Studio Selection Makeup Remover And Cleanser Micellar Cleansing Water ($4 USD for 13.5 Oz) — this claims to gently refresh and hydrate skin while removing makeup. Won’t clog pores and is dermatologically & clinically tested. Formula is free from: Alcohol, parabens, sulfates, and phthalates. Compare to Garnier SKINACTIVE Micellar Cleansing Water All-in-1 Makeup Remover & Cleanser.

I really like this. I haven’t used the original Garnier, but I have used the Garnier waterproof makeup micellar cleanser with the blue cap and hated it. It was so greasy. This one cleans without leaving a greasy residue. I think for the price point, it’s a good buy.

Studio Selection Age Daring Body Wash ($2.80 for 18 oz) — Studio Selection Age Daring Body Wash cleans and moisturizes aging skin. This formula contains Vitamin E and with daily use, helps to revitalize and soften skin over time. Use this rich body wash to fight dryness due to aging skin. This compares to an Olay body wash.

I like the value of this. You get a lot of product for $2.50. It does cleanse well, but I didn’t notice any extra moisturization. Plus, the scent was very soapy, and I wasn’t a fan of the fragrance.

Studio Selection Daily Moisturizing Lotion ($2.95 12 Oz) — helps moisturize your skin for up to 24 hours. This formula also helps to prevent and protect dry skin, providing temporary relief of scaling and chapping that can accompany dry skin. *Compare to Aveeno Active Naturals Daily Moisturizing Lotion.

I gave this to my daughter who has eczema. It does help her dry skin and she has been enjoying it. It does not have a fragrance. Like the other products, the value is great!

Studio Selection Oil-Free Pink Grapefruit Makeup Removing Facial Towelettes ($3.50 USD 25 Ct) — With skin conditioning agents to help moisturize and soothe, suitable for blemish-prone skin, leaves skin feeling smooth and refreshed. They compare to the Neutrogena grapefruit towelettes.

These are my favorite items from this haul. They smell really nice and are so refreshing. They remove my makeup and clean my skin. I think they are definitely worth the $3.50 and I will purchase them again.

So, I think the prices on all of these are great. When I go back to purchase more wipes (and the micellar water), I will check out some of the other wipes and products they have.

Visit www.dollargeneral.com to learn more about the products available and to purchase them.

Pixi Beauty Minis and Lip Balm — Perfect for Travel!

I love Pixi Beauty. It’s luxe beauty at an affordable price. I didn’t know that they offered mini sizes of some of their hero skincare. I was excited to receive the following for my honest review!

Glow Tonic (15 ml/.5 fl. oz. $4 USD) — This mini miracle-working toner helps to brighten the complexion resulting in a healthy glow. Glow Tonic is so refreshing and I really see a difference in my skin when I use this. I especially love this in the summer. My skin gets oily with the heat and stressed with the sun. This brightens my skin without drying it out.

Mini Glow Mud Cleanser (15 ml/.5 fl. oz. $6 USD) — Travel-size version of our deep pore cleansing mud that gently exfoliates while purifying for radiant skin. I like to use this once or twice a week. I have combination skin and this really cleanses it while keeping it soft and smooth.

Shea Butter Lip Balm ($8.00 USD) –Treat lips while giving them gorgeous colour with this multi-tasking miracle lip balm!

The shades I have are Sweet Peach and Honey Nectar. They are pretty on, just a light wash of color. And they are hydrating without being greasy. They contain Shea butter and Vitamin E. They are great to take on vacation because you get the double benefit of color and hydration.

These can be purchased at www.pixibeauty.com.

What products are you taking with you on vacation this year?

Project Pan April-June 2018 — Second Update

I hope everyone has had a great weekend! This is the second Project Pan update for my April to June pan. Just one more month to go! It has been going really well. I started out with 12 products, but as you can see from my photo above, I only have 5 left! I panned two in the first month and 5 more the second. The first two products I panned were IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye concealer and Bye Bye Lines foundation. You can check out my original post here and my second post here.

Of the products left, I am almost finished with the Philosophy Eye Hope eye cream and the the H2O+ day cream. I have only used the face mask a few times, so it’s still half full. I really like it, but I always forget to use it. So we’ll see! The powder still has a lot in it and I have made a dent in the eye shadow.

Here’s what I used up:

I used up my Ofra Cleanser, Neocutis night cream, Oscar Blandi Glossing Cream, Reclaim Botanical neck cream, and the Philosophy Snow Angel body lotion. I am really happy with that!

One more month to go! I should use up almost everything. I’m learning so far that like I thought, skincare is much easier to use up than makeup! I am trying to decide if I’ll do two more pans this year. It’s a lot of work, but it is really satisfying using products up.

Are you doing a project pan? How’s it going?
