Keys: Solar Rx Cosmetic Sunblock
You know how picky I am when it comes to sun protection. Thanks to my sister-in-law, I have found a new favorite everyday sunscreen (face). It not only has 18.5% nano zinc oxide 18.5%, but it also has shea butter and avocado oil, among other great ingredients. And best yet, it's clean, green, vegan and chemical-free. It is extremely hydrating (you can skip your moisturizer from Spring through Fall) yet provides a matte finish. I am in love. An A!
Noir: Holiday Liquid Liner
While it's not quite available, I was able to get my hands on the prototype of Noir's glimmery, sparkly liquid liner, perfect for evening events and holidays. Noir's awesome Lifeline Liquid Liner has spawned the perfect mate, in deep charcoal-y black with specks of glitter. Look for yours soon. A.
Moroccanoil: Oil Treatment for Hair
Another shout out to Cindy. She also turned me onto this awesome hair product. You can use it in a variety of ways, but my favorite is applying it to clean, damp hair then blow drying. It makes your hair incredibly shiny and soft. It even enhances your hair color. Another A.
Om Aroma & Co.: Luxe Face Collection
I was really excited to try this new organic, luxury skin care line that is chemical and preservative-free. The collection contains Champagne Facial Cleanser, White Truffle Age-Defy Face Cream and Caviar Eye Cream. The products feel and smell great. The cleanser can sting your eyes a little (be careful), but is extremely effective in cleansing while keeping skin hydrated. The face cream is amazing - it's like a serum and moisturizer in one. Very happy with the results - B+!
Lindi Skin: Body Wash
My new favorite body wash. Not only is it soap-free, it lathers great, is gentle and provides intense moisture. An A!
Tory Burch: Whitney Bootie
Not only is the bootie such a necessity for Fall, it's incredibly chic, versatile and fun. I have worn these with fancy skirts to events, with jeans for everyday life, as well as trousers and pencil skirts to show a little attitude. They are nothing less than perfect! Of course, an A!
Mario Russo: Olive Bath Line
This is a really nice line. I love the packaging. The Spa Soap is stone-shaped and gently exfoliates skin and smells great! The Looffah works well to rid of dead skin. Lend a Hand lotion is light, but effective. I actually use this all over my body, not just my hands. The SOS Bath Crystals smell great. The crystals are big chunks, made with calendula flower, yet dissolve easily. B+
Bella iL Fiore: Private Eye Mascara, Sugar Kisses lip scrub, and Keychain Lipglosses
The mascara is nice and the packaging is so fun! It applies easily and the color is rich and creamy. This gets a B. The lip scrub is minty fresh in Peppermint and does an excellent job of exfoliating but doesn't dry out lips like some scrubs can do. B+. The Keychain Lipglosses are great fun and convenient. Though I can't say I would add more to my already full key chain, the concept is great. B!
BeautyLash MD: Eyelash Conditioner
I have had the opportunity to test some great eyelash growth formulas, and this is another great one! I know it works on my lashes, but could it help my poor eyebrows thicken up? I am here to tell you, my eyebrows are fuller than they have ever been. I am so excited to report that in 4-5 weeks, I noticed a huge difference. Yeah! An A.
PerriconeMD: Face Finishing Moisturizer
This is a great hydrating formula with excellent ingredients such as Alpha Lipoic Acid, Vitamin C Ester and DMAE. Penetrates the skin nicely. B+
Avene: Hand Cream with Cold Cream
I cannot say enough about this hand cream. I now compare everything else to this. It does an amazing job at keeping hands soft and hydrated, and does not leave your hands greasy. I love it! An A!
