Acne Day & Night Duo patches need to be in your beauty arsenal. I love these patches for when I have a pimple or feel one coming in. This day and night pack allow you to treat overnight and in the daytime while wearing makeup. They use Salicylic Acid, Retinol, and Aloe Vera to vanish those pesky pimples. They reduce the look of redness and promote healing. I have tried a variety of brands and Peace Out is one of the best.
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.
Skinbetter’s AlphaRet Clearing Serum is a retinoid based serum that doesn’t mess around. It is designed for oilier, blemish prone skin. AlphaRet is a patented technology that combines retinoid and an AHA. It will improve the overall clarity, tone and texture. It’s made with salicylic acid, BHA’s, and hydrating & soothing ingrediants.
Tatcha’s The Essence Skincare Boosting Treatment wil soften and plump your skin. It uses a trio of fermented Japanese superfoods. I love every product from this line, and this product does not disappoint. It is designed to boost the effects of your skincare while resurfacing and hydrating the skin.
Australian Gold’s Plant Based Lotion & Sunscreen with SPF 50 is my favorite new sunblock. It smells amazing. It is part of their new Plant Based line, and formulated with Aloe Vera and Coconut Oil.
Givenchy’s Le Rouge Universal Hydrating Lip Balm is my go to balm for under my lipstick or gloss. It’s a clear moisturizing balm that is designed to hydrate up to 24hrs. It has hyaluronic acid and jojoba seed extract to soothe and nourish lips all day.
for Moon Juice’s Acid Potion. This resurfacing exfoliator is strong and effective. I found it because I was looking for a less expensive more natural substitute for my P50 addiction. Many people have said it’s comparable if not better. I had to see for myself. The owner created the company becuase she had an auto immune disorder that she was driven to put in remission. “Moon Juice bridges the world of alchemy and biology for functional benefits.” The Acid Potion is designed to be used like a toner. It actively resurfaces skin with 5 acids and many botanicals. It is 25% AHA+BHA. It also has Niacinamide, Tocotrienols, Lactic Acid,Salicylic Acid, and adaptogenic Reishi. I definitely noticed smaller pores and fresher skin. So get with Moon Juice, and get over ineffective products…
March picks;
I always like a gentle face wash for the morning, especially in the winter. I am loving Le Mieux Phyto Marine Cleansing Lotion. It is a Cream-based, marine-vegetable formulation. Features marine collagen and 7 exotic botanical oils including kukui nut and macadamia nut. It makes my skin feels soft and calm.
After a workout or before bed I am Cleansing with Clear Clinic Laboratories T2 face wash. This clarifying cleanser is formulated with salicylic acid, sulfur and a blend of botanical ingredients, including tea tree oil and peppermint, designed to enhance complexion. It will unclog your pores and destroy bacteria.
I have fallen in love with Pur minerals Big Look Mascara. It is fortified with Argan oil. It never clumps, always lengthens, and reaches every lash. It is nourishing and glamorizing!
I’ve discovered a future go to product. Senté Post-Procedure Recovery Cream. It “powers-up natural healing with enhanced growth factor binding and enablement, reduced redness and irritation, and a reduction in trans-epidermal water loss. Patients recover from in-office procedures more rapidly with greater overall outcome.”
I’m storing my products in this cute Soho Beauty Love Fest double zip organizer.
I’m rocking Black Orchid Black Jewel Mid Rise Jegging. They make your butt look fiiiine.
I’m fitting in those jeans by working out with the Transformer with Disq at Crunch. “It is a mobile fitness device designed to add resistance to functional movements.” It’s like a Pilates reformer on crack.
I’m snacking healthy on Hi I’m Skinny sweet potato sticks. They are non gmo, gluten free, vegan, and addicting.
I just finished Yes Please by Amy Poehler. I highly recommend it. Go for the audio book to hear people like Seth Meyers, and her parents read chapters.
These are my latest March finds, stay tuned for April
to clear up my skin. That’s why I have been using Sarah Chapman London Skinesis Spot Stickers. These premedicated stickers are designed to quickly calm breakouts, reduce redness and speed up blemish recovery. They form an invisible protective shield, so you don’t touch or pick at a blemish. They infuse the skin with high performing active ingredients, like salicylic acid, P-Refinyl, vitamin c, grape seed oil, soy oil and systenol. The stickers release these ingredients over time for optimal results. So get with this sticker, and get out of the house….
