Facial Oil Database

I started an excel file with oil ingredients over  year ago in an effort to find something similar to Sunday Riley Artemis… which I LOVE but it is discontinued. I never found a perfect replacement, but I did find some other oils that I really loved. But in that journey to find the perfect facial […]

Review of SkinCeuticals Blemish + Age Defense

When I think about the different products I’ve tried over the past year or so, this one stands out as a clear favorite.  This was one of the first products in a long time that grabbed my attention and made me not want to do any other routine that didn’t include this. It is that good.  […]

Top 20 Favorite Amazon Finds

I love Amazon..specifically Amazon Prime. There is something about placing an order and having it arrive in 2 days that makes me incredibly happy. I was looking back through my orders over the past year and thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite purchases. Other than my number 1 pick, they […]

Part 1: Clear Skin Essentials — BHA Products

I’ve been thinking more about what I really NEED to have in my collection. So I thought I’d do some posts on what I consider my Skincare Staples. Keep in mind I am 35 and I have oily/combo skin, that is prone to dehydration, and acne-prone as well. And what works for me may not […]

The Granola Goat S.O.S. Sulfur Face Mask

When it comes to spot treating, I think everyone’s skin responds differently to different products. I like to use an AHA+BHA product (that has at least 2% BHA). My favorite is Peter Thomas Roth acne clearing gel. But on top of that I have always loved to use a dry sulfur powder. For me, sulfur gives […]

Mushrooms in Skincare

Recently, I have been a little obsessed with finding skincare products with mushroom extracts in them. This obsession started after using a number of products from Origins Dr. Andrew Wiel Mega Mushroom line. Origins sent a PR box with a couple products from that line (including the mask, treatment lotion, and micellar water) and I Loved every […]

The Glow Maker Vitamin C Serum

When I posted my Vitamin C Serum comparison a couple weeks ago I mentioned that I had recently been testing out a new Vitamin C Serum by Maelove (the product was gifted, but all opinions are my own). In fact, I started testing on Jan 12th and I have been using almost every day since. When […]

Antioxidant Serums Under $100 per oz

A month or so ago someone asked me for recommendations for antioxidant blend serums under $100. I soon realized that all of the products I used and loved were over $100 per ounce. So I went on a search to find some options under $100 per ounce. Then I compiled their ingredient lists. The problem […]

JKosmmune Beta-Glucan Serum Review

This serum was sent to me by JKossmmune and I was excited to try it after reading a review by @lathertolashes. But I had a hyaluronic acid (hydrating) serum that I already loved so I wasn’t expecting to really be impressed by this. But I was impressed. Big Time. Beta-glucan is  is a polysaccharide sugar derived from […]

Foot Peels!

Winter is doing a number on my dry, cracked heels. So recently I reached out on Instagram Stories to ask what foot peels, other than Baby Foot (which I was already aware of), people recommended. 8 different brands were recommended I ended up purchasing the Tony Moly one because it seemed like it was middle […]

Tula Multi-Spectrum Eye Renewal Serum

I hadn’t tried Tula products in the past, but I was intrigued by their use of probioitics. So when they reached out to see if they could send me some products to try, I happily said yes and I am very glad I did! Out of all of the products, the Tula Multi-Spectrum Eye Renewal […]
