Coming Soon: Skin-Peel.com Product Review!
I was sent this product to review from Skin-Peel.com and I’m going to do that soon so look out for it!!!! The product I chose to review is called Med Peel and it’s a Professional Facial Peel product. My skin has been through hell and back for the past year and is just now clearing up from over skin and cystic acne. Also, my hyper pigmentation is slowly going away, but I still have some annoying blemishes left. Let’s see if this peel will help and not harm my skincare progress. We shall see!!!
Product Review: L’Oreal Paris 360 Clean Deep Exfoliating Face Wash
Today’s review is on an exfoliating face wash called, “L’Oreal Paris Go 360 Clean Deep Exfoliating Face Wash“. I love it! Not only because it’s a very light gel and it has very small micro beads in that scrubs your skin, but it smells so good. I bought the one that said EXFOLIATING on it because that’s what my skin needs and it happened to only come in the Apricot scent.
The other Go 360 Clean face gels serve other purposes so I didn’t go for those. This particular gel gets rid of left over makeup that’s still on my face after using a makeup wipe. It doesn’t clean off heavy eye makeup (not many facial cleansars d0) so I still have to go in with my cotton ball and eye makeup remover. This gel is not creamy and I really love that. The consitency reminds me of Dial anti bacterial shower gel (which is my favorite), but it’s not as thick. My face feels very clean, soft and fresh with no build up or product left behind which I usually experience with cream cleansers. A little of this product goes a long way so don’t trip over the size of the container because it’s not large at all.
This cleanser is not harsh on the skin and the micro beads are rocky, but are very small so you will feel a tiny scrub as you massage it into your skin. It comes with this little plastic scrub brush called “The Scrublet” that pops into the container itself so there is a whole in the bottle. I have included an image below showing the consistency of the product and how small the micro beads are.
I believe I paid 5 bucks for this product and it came with a sample tube of this product I guess for travel or to take with you daily. I used a coupon that was on the product to get a $1.00 off and I got this from Target if you’re curious. I like this cleanser better than the Oil-Free Neutrogena cleansers and I’ve tried many of those. After I wash my face it feels refreshed.
This product gets two thumbs up and I will buy again when I run out.
Product Review: Chanel Precision Mousse Confort Rich Foaming Cream Cleanser
I received a sample of this product from Chanel when I purchased two nail polishes from them a few months back via Chanel.com. I ran out of my Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash and I was desperate for a face washing, it was late and so I gave this product a try. It’s called Mousse Confort…
From Last Week’s Sephora Haul
While waiting for the Cheesecake Factory to open last week, we ended up taking a stroll through the mall it’s located in to kill some time. We ended up killing 1.5 hours of time. We hit the Disney Store (my favorite store ever), the MAC store and then we ended up at…Sephora.
OK so I didn’t need anything from Sephora, but I always come out with at least one thing. Here is what I picked up:
1. Sephora by OPI nail polishes – This is my favorite brand for nail polish and I got them in the colors Domestic Goddess (a dark magenta purple color and I love this color) and Call Your Mother (a somewhat gray, but lilacy color that goes on semi shiney and looks flat). $9.00 each
2. a pack of OLEHENRIKSEN makeup wipes – I paid $15.00 for 30 – the sales rep said it’s a new brand they just brought in and I get my first Sephora skincare point if I buy it (if you buy 4 or 5 – I can’t remember right now – of any full sized skincare product you get the 5 or 6 full size for free) . These wipes smell like orange cremesicles literally. They are nothing special. When I use them they feel scratchy, but then again my face is sensitive because I am under a Dermatologists care at the moment. My dollar makeup wipes (30 pack as well) from Odd Lots works for me better than these in my case. These wipes do not clean any better than my dollar wipes – it’s basically the same. Also, these wipes are not as moist as MAC wipes or Neutrogena wipes. I will be returning these wipes.
3. Sephora nail file – I like this file a lot. I think it is made out of what seems to be glass which is sanded down so it doesn’t poke or cut anything. I had never seen one like it until I bought it, went to Target and saw that Revlon has one too! LOL! Both files cost $6.00. The difference between the two is that with the Revlon one you can use both sides to file whereas with the Sephora one you can only use one side (the other side is not textured). I opted to keep the Sephora file because it has the name “SEPHORA” on it.
