Review: I like to use this at night. You wake up in the morning with a beautiful glow. Helps prevent and diminish breakouts. One of my favorites from the line. LOVE this product.

Phenomenal Gel
Daily moisturizer. Good underneath makeup, doesn’t clog my pores, but doesn’t do anything amazing for my skin either. Affordable product, and great for anyone between the ages of 16-25. Does not do anything for signs of aging. 

Vitamin C Cavier balm
Another great leave on mask, doesn’t clog pores. I’ve tried others like this that have. Leaves skin soft and glowing. Good for an at home spa day and in between trips to my esthecian that I see monthly. 

Vitamin C serum :

Helps exfoliate, leaves skin glowing. Love this product as well.  

Product Details

Vitamin C Juice Cleanser: Was not a fan. Reminds me of a micellular water which I don't love. They are ok for makeup removal, but. I prefer a balm or oil to remove my makeup and then I use a cleanser to wash my face after.

•Ferulic acid and probiotics help to preserve and protect skin

•150 ml / 5.1 fl.oz

Suun Ayerveda Haircare Review

My hair has been on such a journey since I graduated college. I have been blonde for almost
6 years now which is craaaazzzzyyyyyy to me lol. I love my hair, but it requires a ton of upkeep.

One thing I'm always looking at are my shampoo and conditioning products. My hair takes a beating so I invest in everything I put in it. Good hair care will keep you out of the salon longer, and make your breakage less. After the first wash my hair was so noticeably soft I was shocked. It also helped tame my frizz that has been happening with all this dry weather and heat. I love the Revlon conditioning shampoo and this is so similar/maybe better on my hair... I know shhhhhh

Suun Ayerveda was nice enough to send me their dry/damaged hair shampoo and conditioner

key benefits: Repairs and prevents breakage. Soft, manageable strands and beautiful shinning hair. Zero harsh chemicals into your body.

I love this shampoo and conditioner my hair feels and looks amazing. They also are Cruelty Free and free of sulfate, parabens, and some other items listed below. What shampoo and conditioner are you loving these days? Let me know I am always looking to try new things :).

New Tool In My Skincare Routine

If you've seen my instagram stories then you know I'm obsessed with skincare. Since moving to Arizona my skin has seen some dramatic changes in texture and I'm not just not here for it. Sooooooooo I have been doing anything and everything to help rejuvenate my skin and this tool has been amazing and I am hoping the results just get better the longer I use it. First off I am by NO MEANS A SKINCARE EXPERT. I am going to talk about my experience and everything I discuss you can find as well online. Just wanted that little disclaimer, because I am not an esthetician or dermatologist so I have no background in skincare. I just love using different products, and letting people know how they worked for me :).

Michael Todd Beauty was so freaking nice to send me this little gem call the Sonic ErasePro. If you have ever had a facial they first use steam to open your pores, and help products penetrate the skin. They also do different types of palpitations and massage on the face that helps promote collagen and elasticity in your skin. So this tool is basically an at home facial massage. It's a little strange at first, I'm not going to lie.... You apply product to the tool and then rub it on your face. The tool vibrates (palpitations like you would have with a facial), and it heats up (opening pores allowing products to penetrate the skin). I've used it for two weeks and I love it. I see a difference in my fine lines around my eyes, and I am so happy I cannot tell you. My skin is so luminous after and throughout the day. I am thrilled. My next stop is botox and filler so I am avoiding that as long as I possibly can :). 

I will try and do a post next month and see if I can show you a difference. I do not have a before photo. I forgot to take one. Buttttt I will let you know how it's going in a month :). I use it day and night. Below is a video on the product from Macys and can be purchased there or at Michael Todd Beauty. #gifted 

Henne Organics... My new favorite lip balm.

I think I may have found my holy grail lip balm. Lip balms in general aren't always the best for your lips. Leaving you reapplying all day long. Henne products are organic and cruelty free, and leaves my lips feeling soft and supple all day. I can apply this in the morning and no need to reapply till mid afternoon if at allllll people this stuff is AMAZING! 

 My lips feel hydrated and smoothe and the effects are even better if I leave it on over night. They also sent me a tinted balm and it is so nice for every day.  It reminds me of a nude shade from MAC, but I can't think of the name i think honey somethingggggg. Not sure tho sorry :(.  They also sent me a lip mask and this sucker is amazing. If i leave this on over night my lips are hydrate so nicely when I get up. I have severely chapped, dry lips from living in the desert and these have helped so much. I will definately be repurchasing!
