READY,SET, RADIANCE

I love Jason Wu Beauty’s Ready Set Radiance in Glow! This is my new favorite setting powder. I wasn’t sure I would like it because these days a lot of “illuminating” products are not for me. They are too shiny, greasy, or glittery. This powder gives you just a touch of glow, like you’re walking around during the golden hour permanently. It kept my makeup in place, and I did not get shiny throughout the night. It comes with a super soft powder puff that gives the perfect application. It allows you to press in the powder and be exact about where you want it. I love that it is infused with vitamin c and rosehip oil to give a bit of care as well perfection. I think all ages and skin types will love this product. I will definitely be buying this again.

EYE WANT IT…

May 24, 2023 //

I absolutely love COSMEDIX’s I Complex Advanced Eye Gel . This may be my new favorite eye cream out there. The packaging is fabulous. You can lock and unlock the top to preserve the product and not let any slip out. The tip has five metal rollerballs on it. It gives a lovely massage to the eye area and helps product penetrate. I like it much more than other “eye massage” tips I have tried with other brands. The gel itself is perfect for the eye area. It is light and instantly absorbs into skin. I found it worked perfectly under my eye makeup. I love that it uses Bakuchiol instead of Retinol. If you have sensitive eyes, or dry eye Retinol is not advised for the skin in that area. I felt an overall hydration and brightness.

MORE NUDES…

I love Nudebody’s Resurfacing Body Toner. This is an innovative product that brings skincare to body care. It works great with entire NudeBody line, however the product stands out by itself. It uses a variety of acids to chemically exfoliate skin, smooth texture, and brighten. Nudebody is a “clean” line you can feel good about. It is great for any area you get razor bumps, or issues from waxing. I use it on my underarms before deodorant to really clean an often neglected area. I like to use it on my chest where I often breakout from sweating during a workout. I think it’s a great product to use where self tanner goes on uneven like elbows and knees. It feels like water on the skin and easily layered with a moisturizer. I think a lot of brand will soon be copying this product.

GET NUDE

I love Nudebody’s Exfoliating Butter Body Wash. This stuff really foams, and yet it is clean. Most clean cleansers get a minimal lather, but not this one. The packaging is simple yet chic and looks great on my shower shelf. You do not need to use a loofah with it, but you can. It uses salt, salicylic acid, papaya enzymes and glycolic acid, to exfoliate and citrus butter to hydrate. I like a chemical exfoliation in the shower since I find a lot of scrubs use a material that is too weak or too strong. My skin feels soft and clean after use. It is scented but I found the scent to be light, and doesn’t stay on the skin. I think all skin types would like this product, and the packaging is somewhat gender neutral.

LIKE BUTTER BABY

I love Butter London’s P.D. Quick Dry Conditioning Drops. This innovative product is a game changer for my home manicures and pedicures. This is the type of product I will buy on repeat. What it does is quick dry your nails while providing conditioning ingredients and protecting from smudges. You simply use one drop from the included dropper on each nail. It quickly spreads to cover the surface. If it gets on your skin it is fine. It does not harden or need to be removed. I will never again use that horrible aerosol spray with the toxic smell that we all know. The finish is clear and shiny. It feels nice on the cuticle and gives an overall just polished look. The brand is clean and cruelty free. I tend to like most of Butter London’s products, but this might be my favorite one yet.

KEEPING UP WITH KOSAS

I love most things I try from Kosas. Recently I tried both their Concealer and Foundation. They do not disappoint. Kosas’s Revealer Concealer. For me I prefer to use it to lighten areas of my face as apposed to under eye concealer. It does work well under the eyes, but I prefer something a with a bit more coverage for that area. I love the applicator. It makes it really easy to apply directly to your face where you need it. It feels good on my skin and lasts. The Revealer Skin-Improving Foundation with Broad Spectrum SPF 25 is fantastic. It feels light on the skin and dries down fast. It lasts all day and night, and worked well with my other products. It gives a medium finish with a touch of glow. I think oily and dry skin would work well with it.

MULTITASKING….

I love PÜR Beauty’s Multitasking Essentials Best Sellers Kit. Each piece is great and includes the basics for a quick touch up, post beach, post gym, post work, whatever/whenever moment. It comes with a primer that I found to be lightweight and effective. There is a mascara that definitely gave length and definition to my lashes. There is a brush included for their star product- the 4 in 1 Pressed Mineral Makeup foundation that has Broad Spectrum Spf 15 coverage. I love the look this mineral powder gives. My skin looked flawless and Matte but not flat. There is a slight luminousity without any shine. I went a shade darker than my skin and it gave me a gorgeous, natural sun kissed look.

VACATION ALL I EVER NEEDED…

April 15, 2023 //

I love everything I have tried from Vacation Inc. Their new Vacation Inc Super Spritz SPF 50 Face Mist did not let me down. I love this product and plan to buy more when I run out. It is lightweight, leaves no residue, and has a barely there feel on the skin. The scent is very subtle,(I wish it was stronger because I love their signature scent) but I understand why they went light with a face product. I appreciate that the spf is at level 50, for me I will use nothing less when it comes to my face. I use this to layer over face sunscreen, and touch up throughout the day, or post ocean swim. It works great over my makeup since the mist is fine and gentle. It does not cause the makeup to move or run. I love that it’s packed with skincare ingredients. The bottle is lightweight so great to keep in your purse.

PUR LOVE

I was surprised by how much I liked PÜR Beauty’s Cloud Cream Gel-to-Water Hydrating Essence Moisturizer. I have tried many “gel to water” moisturizers and I haven’t noticed anything special about them. This is the first one that one that truly gave me an amazing experience. It’s lightweight, absorbs fast, and hydrates as promised. It worked fabulous under my makeup and sunscreen. I will continue to use this year round. I believe all skin types, sexes, and ages will benefit. The Gel to Water solution is extra great for oily skin since it leaves no residue. I would use sunscreen with this product since it has encapsulated retinol. I am a fan of the simple packaging. This line is clean beauty without the annoyingness that sometimes comes with clean brands.

LIKE BUTTER….

Butter London’s So Buff Jumbo Hand and Foot Polish with Glycolic Acid is my favorite hand product I have found in a long time. It is not just for your hands. It is designed for feet as well, and of course you could use it where you choose like elbows and any other rough spot that needs attention. You simply massage the product onto your skin for a few seconds and then rinse off. I immediately noticed a super softness once I dried my hands and feet. I follow this treatment with their Extra Whip Hand & Foot Treatment for a fully pampered experience. I love that this not only softens but exfoliates as well. It’s packed with antioxidants, and the physical exfoliants are gentle yet effective. It has a nice delicate smell. I think it would be good for most skin types. Sensitive skin may want to spot treat. I recommend using SPF on your hands in the daytime.
