Empty Bottle Review: Serum Amniotique E.

July 8, 2019 1 Comment

I’m a sucker for an impulse purchase. Give me a good up-sell and I’ll probably bite. Within reason. For all my skin woes, I’m especially a sucker for a post-facial purchase. When my esthetician at Rescue Spa suggested Serum Amniotique E. from Biologique Recherche, I didn’t bat an eye at the $70 price tag (I […]

Empty Bottle Review: Environ Sebu-Wash

April 22, 2019 1 Comment

Happy Monday! This week, I’m sharing my review of Sebu-Wash from Environ. But before we get there, I have to say … it’s the best day of the year. Why? Because it’s the day after Easter and that means HALF OFF ALL CANDY. For us childless folks, this is our holiday. A gentleman at the […]

Another perk of working from home? Unlimited misting 😉.
Another way I combat breakouts is by pairing my @iloveskininc Optimizer Voyage Tri-Light with a hydrating gel mask. I tried this one from @skinceuticals recently, to give the device some glide while giving my skin a dose of blue LED.
Ready to go for a spin (or drive, or flight, or train ride, or boat ride).
The weekend is here! To combat a little breakout from a product that didn’t agree with my skin, I’m going back to another one of my favorite @biologique_recherche Quintessential Serums, Complexe Iribiol. The active ingredients in this serum are salicylic acid and iris, zinc and red poppy extracts.
TFW you tried a buzzy product — ignoring all past experiences and knowledge — and are pretty sure it’s doing the opposite of helping.
Trying to manifest warmer weather. I’m so ready to put on a cute dress and make my (very pale) limbs sparkle with this classic French pharmacy product. The smell just reminds me of summer and it’s so light, it absorbs in seconds without leaving me feeling greasy. I’ll also use it in my hair for extra shine and hydration. Favorite dry oil, hands down.
My favorite skincare brand of all time. Sharing some ❤️ for @biologique_recherche today. This brand has truly changed my skin. Their products simply work as promised and help me maintain my skin between facials, which I typically have once a season.
Raise your hand if all of your makeup is expired 🙋🏻‍♀️. While I don’t think I’ll go back to a daily face of makeup any time soon, there are still some essentials I like to back on hand for when I’m feeling less stellar about my skin or want to glam it up a bit.
“OMG how cute is this block?” — Me to my patient husband, after turning every single corner on every single walk we take 😂
TGIF! March #beautyempties are now up on the blog. My winner this month had to be this @renefurterer hair mask. Link in bio to learn all about it and how the rest of my empties ranked.
