the Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer from Fenty Beauty! This is my new go-to lip gloss. The color, texture, feel, and look are perfect. I have it in “Fussy”. It’s soft and light, and has good staying power for a gloss. It has no glitter but major reflective shine. It conditions with Shea Butter, it’s not sticky, and has a pretty scent. So pucker up with Fenty!
Kenra’s Design Spray 9 Light Hold Hairspray is my new favorite hairspray. It tames hair and gives a movable hold, while being soft and brushable. My favorite thing is the smell! It smells like strawberries and cream, and I can’t get enough of it. I’ve had people comment on the fragrance is passing. I got mine at Ulta.
Lip Gloss from Mally. This gloss is shiny and lightweight. There is no tackyness, and it lasts (for a gloss). I love the applicator. It grabs the perfect amount for application, and the pointed tip allows you to be exact with placement. I loved the color on me, and think it would work well with most skin tones. It is a nice in-between of a berry and a pink. There is a light tingle when applied. I did not notice any plumping, however I have big lips so it’s not always evident. Lips are left hydrated, soft, comfortable. The gloss has Vitamin E, Rice Bran oil, Jojoba Seed and Sweet Almond Oils to soften and moisturize. I will be using this flexible nude from Summer to Winter.
This incredible new skincare line Kadalys. Kadalys uses the power of Banana Bio actives as their power ingrediant in this amazing sustainable, natural, line. I love their Cleansing Pure Melt Gel In Oil. I have never tried an “oil cleanser” with this consistency. When you apply it to dry skin it feels less like an oil and more like a jellyish cleanser. When you rinse with water it quickly turns to a milky cleanser. My skin was left very soft, and it removed all the makeup I had on. There also wasn’t a film feeling left. So get Kadalys and feel fruity..
in this month’s skincare and makeup finds. This month I’ve switched things up with some fabulous finds. I have been using Ren’s Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic. It has a delicious cucumber smell. It uses Lactic Acid and Salicin(BHA) to exfoliate, brighten, tighten and hydrate. It’s gentle enough to use every day.
In the morning I follow that with Lancome’s amazing Renergie HCF Triple Serum. It’s and anti aging serum with Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin C, Niacinamide, and Ferulic Acid. This serum feels luxurious. It’s designed to improve volume loss, reduce wrinkles, and brighten dark spots. It has a unique triple chamber packaging to combine ingredients in the perfect balance.
My makeup find is Kosas’s Air Brow lifting treatment gel. I use this in the daytime for a natural yet enhanced look. It adds volume with a soft flexible hold. Kosas is a clean beauty brand, and this gel is boosted with hair care actives to help brows grow and thicken. It has biodegradable plant based microfibers for fullness and volume. Panthenol Provitamin B5, Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1, Trehalose, and Hyaluronic Acid for Brow health. It’s the perfect not too dry not too wet brow product.
your hair with Agadir’s Daily Moisturizing Shampoo. A lot of sulfate free shampoos do not lather well, and you need to use a lot of product. With Agadir Daily Moisturizing Shampoo the bubbles start right away, and I noticed I needed less than my usual amount of product to really get a good cleansing throughout my waist length hair. The smell is awesome. It left my hair to be soft, shiny, and frizz free. I don’t think you can have too much Argan Oil in your life, and there’s in 100% pure and certified.
It also uses Vitamin E, antioxidants and unsaturated essential fatty acids with Omega-6 & Omega-9. I also love their Spray Treatment and Mousse. It is not like the Mousse we used in the 80’s. It leaves your hair soft and controlled.
in my cup and now on my body. I’ve been using Juara Skincare’s Invigorating Coffee Scrub. What I love most about this scrub is not only does it exfoliate but it also cleanses. It has sulfate free cleansing agents that activate when working it in to your skin. The scrub is gentle and leaves skin soft. It boosts circulation and is said to tighten skin and fight cellulite. So wake up your skin with Juara, and get it on in the morning….
of hair oil. Typology, a brand I’ve written about a few times, has gotten into hair care. They have a variety of hair and scalp treatments to check out. My favorite of their haircare is the Nourishing Hair Oil, made with Argan and 5% Pequi. This rich oil is designed to “restructure the hair fibers and protect against heat. Hair is left soft, shiny, and controlled.” It can be used on both dry and wet hair. It is not greasy or heavy. It’s extremely hydrating, and I was able to let my hair airdry without frizz. So get with Typology and get into better hair…
This month I have discovered two cleansers that are instant favorites. I was impressed with both on first use, and will continue to buy them both. I am crazy about Indie Lee’s Brightening Cleanser. This gentle, foaming, cleanser completely removes makeup and dirt without drying out your skin. It is made with Strawberry Seed Oil, hydrolyzed wheat protein and Tomato extracts. You can leave it on for 5 minutes to use as an exfoliating mask. Skin is left brightened and softened. I am a huge fan of this brand in general. Every product is made from high quality ingredients that blend the best of nature and Science. The second cleanser I’ve gone crazy for is Bare Minerals Pure Plush Gentle Deep Cleansing Foam. Just a pea sized amount provides enough lather to deep clean your entire face. It uses mineral rich sea salts, rosemary, and elderflower to brighten and refine skin. This cleanser even removes my eyemakeup. Both of these brands deliver instant results. So get dirty, to get clean again…
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…
