Poems From The Lab Future Focus Vitamin C Serum

this months new favorites. I have a new favorite Vitamin C serum. It is Poems From The Lab Future Focus. It uses 15% Ascorbic Acid and Ferulic Acid as well as Glutathione related Amino Acids. It feels amazing upon application.  It comes with a cool squeezy tube to make sure you get every drop. 

Elizabeth Arden Hyaluronic Acid Ceramide Capsules Hydra-Plumping Serum #1

I have also found an outstanding Hyaluronic Acid. Elizabeth Arden’s Hyaluronic Acid Ceramide Capsules Hydra-Plumping Serum.This is HA on acid. Like adding velvet to your skin.

Laura Mercier - Long-Wear Tinted Moisturizer Natural Dewy SPF 30 with Hyaluronic Acid 1W Blonde 1.52 oz / 45 mL Laura Mercier Long-Wear Tinted Moisturizer Natural Dewy SPF 30 with Hyaluronic Acid

Lastly the world’s best BB Cream. Laura Mercier’s Long Wear Tinted Moisturizer Natural Dewy SPF 30 with Hyaluronic Acid. This gives coverage, hydration, and a natural-luminous glow.

Clarifique Exfoliating & Hydrating Face Essence with Glycolic Acid. This product brings the best of both worlds together. They hydration and blancing of an essence, with the exfoliation of Glycolic Acid. It will exfoliate and nourish skin. I use it as part of my night time routine. It will help your skin better absorb the products you use on top of it. It has a water like consistency that immediately penetrates the skin.

I am happy to report their Bio-Cellulose 4-piece Radiant & Rejuvenating Sheet Mask set does not disappoint. The box comes with two sheet masks for hydration and two vitamin c infused masks to Energize. It is important when you open the mask packet that you remove the top layer they call a “netting”. If I hadn’t read the directions I would have just put it on my skin thinking it was the mask itself. You let it sit on your face for fifteen minutes. I was able to walk around the house and do whatever I wanted. You don’t need to lay down, it sticks to your face very well. I like to go over the mask with my rose quartz roller to really make sure every bit of skin is covered and work the product in even further. I loved that when I removed the mask my skin felt like it had a serum on it, but not like a slime that needed to be wiped off as some masks will do


Body moisturizer is so last year. That’s why I’ve been using B. Fresh’s line of body serums. These are perfect for the summer because they are lightweight and sink into your skin fast. I live in Miami so I’ll definitely be using them year round. The range covers the needs of hydration, exfoliation, brightening, and firming. The line is clean and cruelty free. I love how soft my skin feels with this product. No grease, just smooth skin.

because they look amazing and are soft and shiny. My new favorite lip products is Locked & Lit from Smith & Cult. It’s a CBD lip balm gives the most perfect, natural, shine and look. It uses hemp derived CBD to soothe and protect. Coconut derived MCT oil provides intense hydration. I have the clear, which is green in the jar, and it gives the most perfect natural lip color boost. I love how long it lasts, as apposed to many balms that seem to dissipate in minutes. So pucker up for Smith & Cult and make your lips luscious…

and approved. Not all cbd/hemp products are created equal. Kiskanu is family owned and operated. The family has worked in the cannabis industry for over 20 years. All their products are small batch, sustainable, and hand crafted. They use premium organic whole plant extracts in a base of cold pressed, virgin, organic oils. The line is lab tested and all hemp CBD is sourced within the US. “Rather than isolates or concentrates, we believe in the effectiveness of whole plant medicine to imbue healing qualities into our products that are palpable.” I love the Hemp CBD Face Oil. I use it as a serum, but it can also be used as a makeup remover or body oil. It offers major hydration, and absorbs quickly. Rose Geranium is used to soothe inflammation. The oil is anti-bacterial, antifungal, and loaded with antioxidants. So get with Kiskanu for your face, and while you’re there check out their Hemp CBD Intimacy Oil, because omg….

hydration and purification. I love trying new toners for my skincare routine. Recently I’ve been interested in getting into the Essence game. So the perfect bridge for me was Algenist’s Hydrating Essence Toner. It uses their patented Alguronic Acid (from Algae), plus Witch Hazel and Chamomile. The toner/essence smoothes, hydrated, and purifies skin. I have been impressed with many products from this line. So get with Algenist and have that certain essence about you ;)….

Lucky Chick Cosmetics. This line is designed to give ultimate coverage in one swipe to lips and eyes. They believe in creamy textures, hydration, cruelty free, clean beauty. The products are infused with good for you ingredients like coffee, rose, jojoba oil, and cucumber extracts. I have been using their Lip lacquer in Desire. Desire is a stunning red with blue undertones. It has major color and shine, while lasting for hours. It does not feather, and does not dry out your lips. So get Lucky Chick for major color and noticeable lips, because there’s nothing wrong with a little attention ;)…..
