Number 4 Jour d' automne Smoothing Balm Review

Hey everyone! Today's review is on the Number 4 Jour d' automne Smoothing Balm. So if you have been here any length of time you will probably know I am always looking for things to help out with frizz, I live in the south so it is always an issue for me, so anytime I get knew things like this I am happy to try them out. I would say I like the formula of this, it is kinda a lotion texture and it goes into my hair pretty well, the only issue is it can make my hair look wet, so that is something to be aware of if that bothers you. I would say this does help with frizz, it isn't perfect but it is better with this in than without and that is something at least because my hair gets VERY frizzy without. I would say it is on par with alot that I have tried, but I wouldn't get this full size because I have tried some cheaper ones that get the same job done just as well.

Pan Oxyl PM Overnight Spot Patch Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Pan Oxyl Overnight Spot Patches. So I have had these and been testing them for a while and I really wanted them to work because I have seen such positive things about spot patches.  I don't know if it is just this brand or they just don't work for me, but I really don't think these do much for me. If anything I feel like they make my spots look worse almost?  I really am not sure if it is just me or the patches but I am not a huge fan of these. I really want to try another brand to compare and see if they work any better but as for these I will not buy them again.  Just for reference I have tried them for various lengths of time at night (like I put them on earlier or later before bed) and they still just don't do very much for me. Do you guys have any brand recommendations that you find work really well? I would love to test them if you do!  

(MALIN+GOETZ) Revitalizing Eye Gel Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Malin+Goetz Revitalizing Eye Gel. I actually think this worked really well. It was very moisturizing and left my skin around that area super soft. I didn't notice that it did a lot for my dark circles but it did make the area seem a bit brighter and glowier. I can't speak for if it helps prevent wrinkles but the amount of moisture would lead me to say I think it would help a lot if used consistently. Now I will say I thought this was fairly expensive at around $40 USD but looking at some similar products I think maybe that must be about the upper end of average for eye creams/gels. Overall I really liked this one.

Earth Harbor Tidal Rose Crystal Hydration Mist Review

Hey guys!! So if you have been here for a little bit you might know I recently discovered I really love Earth Harbor products. This is a newer one I have tried and I really like this one as well. It is very refreshing on the skin and I feel like it just makes my skin feel better. I am not 100% exactly what it does but I can tell a difference. According to the website it helps with inflamation, is PH balancing, has antioxidents, vitimins, minerals and helps remove toxins and proctect against environmental stressors. Is it doing all of this? Maybe I am not sure how I would tell but I can tell you, my skin likes this product and it makes my skin look nicer. It is also supposed to be good for aging I believe which I am all for taking care of my skin now to try and avoid too many wrinkles and what not. I will absolutely get more of this as I run out (it lasts ages though!) and I totally recommend trying this and any other Earth Harbor product. I love all the ones I have tried so far!  

Essence What the Fake Mascara Review

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the Essence What the Fake Mascara. Since this brand has such a good price point I actually got a few mascaras to try from them, this one I like but not as much as the previous one ( I Love Extreme Mascara). This one I would say is pretty decent for the price (abt $5 USD) but not my favorite for winter. I say that because I personally like to have a thicker longer fuller mascara in the winter, but a lighter more natural one in the summer.  This for me falls into the latter, it looks nice but is a little light for me in the winter for the look I want to have. The primer from essence helps but I would still probably not use this in the cooler seasons. That being said it applies great and I have no issues with the application or the wear of it, it goes on well and stays put. It also isn't to clumpy. So I would still for sure recommend it for the price, but if you are like me I would try it in the warmer months.  

Burt's Bees Micellar Facial Towelettes Review

Hey guys! Today  I am reviewing the Burt's Bees Micellar Facial Towelettes. These were kind of an impulse purchase, I was at the store and just decided I wanted some makeup up remover wipes. These happened to be some of the only ones without aloe so I got these. These work pretty well, they aren't overly wet so I don't have to worry about needing to dry my face after using them and they do a decent job removing my makeup. I do not think they work as well as the micellar water I normally use but they work in a pinch or on a night I just am so tired I just don't want to do anything else. I don't really think they are very hydrating like they claim but they do not dry out my skin so that is good. I am not sure I will buy these again but they are fine, if I needed some and forgot my other makeup remover or just didn't want to take it because it is bulky I would buy it but not for just normal days.  

Dr. Jart+ Ceramidin Cream Review

Hey guys!! Today I am reviewing the Dr Jart+ Ceramidin Cream. I actually had 2 of these samples so I got to use this for a little while to test it out. I actually really liked this one, it was a very thick cream but it dried down pretty well and felt super moisturizing. My skin felt really nice after using it. It didn't have too strong of a scent either which was also really good. Now I will say I do not think I will be repurchasing the full size simply because it is $48 USD and there are cheaper ones I love that work for me, however it is a really good face cream.  If you have super dry skin and nothing seems to help I would give this a shot and see if it works for you!
