I love the way my skin looks after using this cleanser but I am unable to use it more than once a day. I believe it has lactic acid which works as an exfoliant. I found the La Roche-Posay Toleraine moisturizing cleanser to be very similar and more gentle but leaves my skin looking less bright and fresh. Alternating between the two is the perfect balance.
This is a very gentle cleanser which I alternate between the cervave moisturizing cleanser and the Lacure moisturizing cleanser. Of the three it is the most gentle and causes no irritation however it does not exfoliate as well as the Cervave. If I use the Cervave too many days in a row I get irritation so the La Roche-Posay is perfect to alternate it with. It is very unpleasant to get this in the …Read more
I thought I would love this product because I typically enjoy the scent of roses. The fragrance is the aspect that I enjoy least. It is overpowering and lasts for well over a hour. That said, there are many reasons to love this, if you can get past the fragrance. The texture on application is wonderful. It is light and not greasy, yet still moisturizing.The finish is dewy, not matte as suggested …Read more
I’m very pleased with this product. I bought three colors: the red, neon purple, and auburn because I wanted to create a custom neutral auburn shade and they were buy 2 get one free. I knew the red would be less natural than what I really wanted and was afraid the auburn wouldn’t be red enough. The purple was to soften the shade a bit. I mixed equal parts red and auburn with a conditioner and a …Read more
I loved this cream from the first moment I tried it. I use it day and night because the day cream is super heavy and has a weird smell. I started using this cream as a base by adding some essential oils that benefit my skin. I use 1 drop of blue tansy oil, 3 drops geranium oil, and 1 drop sweet orange. My skin is kind of sensitive so I cannot go too crazy with the oils but this cream is the …Read more
These are my favorite Colourpop shadows. I bought the Zingara set which consists of four shades. The lightest are Jinxie a pale golden shimmering formula and Elixir, which is a medium terracotta shade. The other two shades are deep and dramatic, one is rich cranberry called Paradox and the other is a dark reddish brown called Seeker. I like to wear these with more sheer coverage and build upon …Read more
I love the colors in this palette, especially shooting star, magical, moony, and elfish. The other colors are great but I need to use a light hand with them. I think they will last forever because a little goes a long way. I feel that they really settle in every single line on my lid if I don’t go very light, even with primer. For this reason I prefer the Super Shock Shadows which do not settle …Read more
I love the lilting curl I get with this mascara. A little goes a long way and the brush is wonderful because it gives each lash a nice coat and defines. It also adds a nice amount of volume without the tarantula look. I like my makeup to look more natural but this could go in any direction depending on number of coats. Flaking is probably dependent on number of coats because when I go heavier I …Read more
I received this product in a Birch Box, and it has grown on me after a time. My lashes have been already fairly long since I've been following a high nutrition diet but they still could use a lift and darkening. This is just right for my needs. The brush is odd for using in the conventional manner so I only use it that way on my lash tips then I use the round brush tip to flare my lashes …Read more
This is a beautiful lipgloss. I got "Lion Tamer", which is a shimmery sort of tawny shade. It's very subtle and looks beautiful over a stain, but still nice alone. It smells delicious and has a nice tingle, but I don't see much plumping action to be perfectly honest. However, it is my current favorite lipgloss. It's not greasy or overly sticky and lasts longer than many I …Read more
