Beauty Product Reviews
Exfoliating + Fresh Scent + Au Naturale
Under your naked skin is a glowing skin goddess. Well, I still mean "you" .. BUT, you just have to unleash that goddess in you. Okay, are you ready?
After showering, rub this fresh smelling scrub on your skin focusing on the rough spots such as your elbows, knees, shoulders, feet or whatever part you want to focus on. Rub-a-dub-dub-scruba-dub-dub. Sing your favorite song while scrubbing. Then, rinse. Pat yourself with a dry towel. (I said pat, not rub!)
I promise you, you'll have smoother skin with continuous use!
4.5 stars because it should come in bigger tubs so it will really be worth the price. A little tub lasts me 2-3 weeks. Kinda expensive.
Tip: Wait for the semi-annual sale.
Smoothing + Moisturizing
I have 4 favorites: Olive, Shea, Coconut, Cocoa Butter.
After continuous usage of this product, my skin feels smoother, firmer and moisturized!
1.Texture: Creamy, not so sticky (even in the summertime)
2. Scent: Smells good, good, good. It has a light scent. It's not so overpowering.
3. Price: I say wait for the semi-annual sale (June & Dec) . . . Then go crazy with the mini-tubs! On a regular day, it would be about $10-$20 depending on the size.
Does it work? Yes, it does. It works as promised.
Gives you the Glimmer + Long-Lasting
This is one of the few reasons why I love Avon.
1. Long Lasting
2. Glides smoothly.
3. AFFORDABLE. Let me repeat that, AFFORDABLE. Sometimes, they would even do a big sale, isn't that lovely!?
4. Nice selections of striking colors, too. I usually get the emerald green and black ice.
Summer Glow + Extra Oomph of Sun Protection
I have a golden medium complexion; which is lovely because I don't need to go tanning during winter season (or any other season). However, that doesn't mean that I'm safe from the yucky UVA/UVB rays . . . thanks to BareMinerals Mineral Veil, a golden glow plus sun protection can now be achieved!
I always get the tinted one because I can use it as a light blush or an all-over face glow. It's non-comedogenic, doesn't clog your pores, works perfectly with the matte foundation.
Can be used alone or over BareMinerals foundation.
The only reason why I'm giving it 4.5 stars is because, it should be a little bit cheaper. Other than that, it's a product that works!
Stay radiant, all. Bling bling.
Juicy + Fruity
I am a glamarama juicy girl who loves fruity scents. DKNY Be Delicious reminds me of happy summer days OR cool, crisp,apple season autumn breeze (Choose one).
Smells yummy. Lasts all day. One spritz is all you need, seriously.
Mattifying + Oil-Absorbing + Good Coverage
I have oily/combination skin so my main goal is to choose a foundation that will help me absorb the oil while giving me that "mattified" look.
1. Good coverage: light scarring due to acne; uneven skin tone; blemishes; pimples
2. Doesn't leave you naked: BM is not just your ordinary make-up, it serves as your skin's umbrella too. Good, eh?
3. Naturally Nature Friendly: This product doesn't contain yucky chemicals. Well, you might protest a little bit about Zinc Oxide and Titanium Oxide. I did too. But, after doing some research I learned that Zinc Oxide and Titanium Oxide are compounds that are also used in anti-dandruff shampoos, calamine lotion (relieves itchy skin), UV sunscreens, and it also has antibacterial properties. Also, it stays on the surface of the skin. Thus, making the product hypo-allergenic and non-irritating.
Dirt on your face: It contains Kaolin Clay which is amazing for oil absorption.
Will not rob your wallet: Unlike other expensive foundations (hint,hint MAC), BareMInerals is actually affordable. It's only $28 dollars per jar and it lasts me about 2-3 months. Swirl. Tap. Buff. Dance. Somersault.
