The Holy Grail: Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant
Dermalogica is one of the best skin care lines out, so when I received Dermalogica's daily microfoliant. I did a happy dance!, I love getting the opportunity to try products from such a beloved brand.
Dermalogica's Daily Microfoliant is a rice based powder exfoliant that activates upon contact with H20 for optimum efficiency and results. Salicylic acid, Papain and Rice enzymes lift dead skin cells gently and effectively leaving your skin brighter and smoother, instantly.
Review time..
I've been using this for over 2 weeks now, and i have to admit that I love it, at first i was a bit confused as to how to use it and how it works. (as simple as the directions are), I would get powder everywhere. :( , I started putting a little bit of water on my hand and then the powder, making a sorta thick paste.( I say sorta because the thickness depends on how much water you want to use).
I would start with what the instructions suggest then adjust it to your liking.
After the second time, I had no problem using the powder.
One of my favorite things about this product is that unlike other exfoliants this one is not rough, so its perfect for someone with sensitive skin. You can barely feel it when you use it but you can totally see the results, after the first use I could feel the difference, my skin felt sooo soft as soon as I rinsed this off. I use it in the morning and at night, one of the biggest difference I've noticed is that my skin doesn't get super oily like before and it just feels soo soo smooth.
I love a product that shows a difference in your skin right away. I strongly recommend adding this product to your beauty routine, trust me you will not regret it.

Review: Sobo skincare
Recently I was give. The opportunity to try SOBO ULTRA HGF Youth serum. I'm always excited to try new skin care products.
I tried this serum for over a month but before I get to the review here is a little background info on SOBO skin care.
SOBO
is an environmentally friendly brand, all of its products are organic
and made with all natural products. Free of GMOs, sulfates, artificial
additives and synthetic dyes.
Now time for the review...
The
first thing I noticed about this Serum is that unlike other serums this
doesn't feel sticky and oily, my skin absorbed this quickly, so it
didn't just sit on top of my skin ( I hate that) my skin felt very
moisturized.
After
3 weeks I was able to see some difference in the appearance of my skin,
it was brighter and my skin looked a bit tighter. I don't have a
problem with wrinkles ( thankfully) but I have a few fine lines, and
within 3 weeks I could see them diminishing.
I recommend adding this serum to your beauty routine if you're looking for a good serum!.

MUST HAVE: Apothecary Extracts tree tea oil
Tea tree oil is must have!, this is not just for your beauty routine.
I was given the opportunity to try Apothecary Extracts tea tree oil and pretty much used it on everything!.
added a couple drops to my laundry, sprayed some on the floor when cleaning, used it on my sunburn.
Tea tree oil is extracted from the leaves of the Melaleuca tree found in Australia and its usually bottled in small dark bottles, but Apothecary Extracts has a 4oz bottle which is amazing!, because this Tea tree oil can be used on so many different things, it kills bacteria, fungus and mold and also deodorizes.
You can purchase Apothecary Extracts Tea tree oil here --> APOTHECARY
when you purchase this you will also receive an E-Book with over 50 more uses!.

REVIEW: Valentia Even Glow Vitamin C serum
Our
skin is damaged each day due to environmental pollutants, oxidative
stress, and chemical laden cosmetic products. The amount of free
radicals waging war on the skin quickly depletes our natural protective
resources.
Our
premier formulation is backed by scientific research into the efficacy
of each of the natural ingredients we have carefully selected.
Our
proprietary blend of *skin super oils compliment our 20% Vitamin C
base, leading to a powerful antioxidant treatment. Each natural
ingredient was chosen to support and enhance Vitamin C’s efficacy on the
skin, leading to more well-rounded serum to add to your daily skin care
ritual.
Our
Even Glow Serum will repair, refresh, and renew your skin; restoring
evenness to your complexion, giving you an extra boost of confidence
each time you look in the mirror.
We know this all sounds too good to be true… but soon you’ll see. – Valentina Even Glow Serum
Vitamin C is amazing for your skin, so when I had the chance to review Valentina Vitamin C Serum, I was uber excited.
I’ve been using this serum for about 3 weeks now and I’m loving how great my skin feels and looks.
Here are some of the key ingredients in this amazing product.
ORGANIC ROSEHIP SEED OIL & ORGANIC SEA BUCKTHORN OIL -
These oils are full of antioxidants and help your skin lock in
moisture to protect your skin from signs of aging & improve its
beauty and youthfulness.
GREEN TEA EXTRACT-
green tea is full of antioxidants, and also has anti inflammatory and anti-irritant benefits.
Valentia Even Glow Vitamin C Serum has a lovely orange citrusy scent, it smells like freshly squeezed orange juice (yum!).
This
serum is a bit thicker than most serums, when you first apply this
serum it is a bit greasy but after a few minutes your skin absorbs this
serum.
After
the first night of using this my skin looked significantly brighter and
felt super smooth, and after three weeks I can see my skin tone is even
and my skin has a natural glow.
I've
also used this serum in a face mask, when you purchase Valentina even
glow serum, you get an e-book with amazing beauty recipes.

Hello September
Hello loves,
Can you believe its already September, it's crazy how quick the year has gone by and we are only a few days away from fall!.
As we get closer to the colder months, not only does our wardrobe change but so does our makeup and skin care routine.
Some of the things I change are my foundation to a lighter shade, moisturizer and adding a skin hydrating booster to the mix, since its a bit colder my skin needs some extra moisture.
what are some of the things you change in your makeup and skin care routine for the fall/ winter?.
XOXO,
Z

Review: #Exuviance
I love trying new products, specially something new and different.
This unique skin care kit includes an evening restorative complex cream and a Vitamin C+ anti-aging booster, this booster was something I've never tried before.
About the products:
![]() |
| Vitamin C+ Anti-aging Booster |
Vitamin C+ Anti-aging Booster:
This powder is formulated to restore firmness, smooth lines and it helps diminishes the look of age spots, and protects against future damage.
![]() |
| Evening Restorative Complex |
Evening Restorative Complex:
This intensive high- performing cream is designed to help repair dry, photo-damaged skin and fight the visinle signs of aging. Contains a bionic blend of gluconolactone and lactobionic acid (PHAs)
All of the ingredients are 100% active, this is very rare in the skincare market.
Most products have fillers such as water and/or colorings.
Review time!!..
So I started using this every night, after washing my face and drying it, I added the Vitamin C+ booster to the Evening Restorative Complex. I added one small scoop mixed it and applied it to my face, neck and back of my hands.
The cream doesn't feel heavy and sinks into your skin quickly, it does feel a little oily at first but come morning your face doesn't feel like that, I have combination skin so my T-Zone is usually super oily in the morning but with this cream I don't wake up with my feeling oily. I felt a bit of change with my skin, my skin feels fresh and renewed and my skin has a glow. I've only been using this for about a week and this claims to show signs after 4 weeks, I will continue to use this and give you ladies another update.
