  • It's time for a little #MondayMotivation ala skincare with @paulaschoice. If you can look at your skin and notice dullness, discoloration and premature aging (no, that fine line shouldn't be there), there's a chance you are suffering from a little environmental damage. We've talked about it before if you've booked a consultation with me. When you step outside, the air is not as clear as it appears and dont get me started on what the sun does to your skin (which is why I stress wearing SPF EVERYDAY) and that's where Paula's Choice Defense comes in. So without further ado, a mini review! ---------- Paula's Choice Defense Hydrating Gel-to-Cream Cleanser. The cleanser dispenses as a gel and ends as a milky emulsion, making it the top choice for a cleanser to use at the end of the day to remove makeup and all the other ickies of the world. Rinses clean has no scent, and it leaves my skin moisturized. ---------- Paula's Choice Defense Antioxidant Pore Purifier contains salicylic acid (acne buster) and white tea extract (reduces inflammation) to fight antioxidants and keep the skin cool, calm and collected all day. The texture is like a serum, even leaning more towards a thicker watery essence. It absorbs into the skin ASAP and does not leave a greasy finish. Excellent for every skintype. ---------- Essential Glow Moisturizer contains kiwi and licorice in a mineral SPF 30 formula to instantly illuminate and moisturize skin. Now I know what you're thinking- mineral sunscreen? It's gonna leave a white cast right? WRONG! No white cast on the skin, the formula is super light, it contains more than a few of my favorite ingredients like linoleic acid and reservatol --------- Paula's Choice Defense Nightly Reconditioning Moisturizer contains wild cherry and flaxseed to nourish and moisturize skin. I know it's for all skin types and while I agree, I must single out the oily skin types and make sure you guys know that you will LOVE this one. It's super light, hydrating and lightweight. --------- So what do you think about the collection? Have you tried any of the products? Did you pick up the moisturizers during the 2 for $50 sale? Got questions? Let's chat in the comments!
  • Ten years ago @letmegrillofficial and I welcomed a cute moose into the world. Happy Birthday Savannah! Pretty black girl 👧🏾, lover of the color purple 💜, unicorn 🦄 believer.
  • Got my first haul courtesy of @dermalogica. I’ve always been in love with the daily microfoliant, but I’ll admit, everything else is kinda new to me. What is your fave Dermalogica product? ———— #savingface #heyaprill #skincare #thursday #skincareroutine #skincaretips #dermalogicaskincare #dermalogica
  • Have you ever had a random, nasty thought about food? That’s me at 7am this morning thinking about the pesto at @themanshipjxn. ——————— #foodie #jxnfoodies #jacksonfoodies #themanship #yum #yummy #pesto #firespitter
  • #skincarereview: @origins Hello, Calm Relaxing & Hydrating Face Mask with Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil is Origins first ever mask infused with Cannabis Sativa seed oil from hemp. The mask claims to be lush and nourishing, calming and soothing. ---------- Hello, Calm is packaged in a 2.5 fl. oz. tube. The packaging makes it easy to dispense and since the dispenser in located on the bottom of the tube instead of the top, that makes it easier for the product to slide down, allowing you get every drop. ---------- The scent of the mask is herbal and calming and no, it does not smell like weed. Lots of rosemary and lavender notes. Apply a generous amount to clean skin. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then use tissue and remove mask. Massage the excess into your skin. ---------- I loved this mask from the moment it landed on my desk. I use it every Sunday after my @deciem AHA/BHA peel to keep my skin calm and infuse rich moisture into my skin. The moisture is real. It’s really rich and I love it. ----------- Have you tried Hello, Calm? Is there an #originsmask on your wishlist? What's going on your face this #selfcareSunday? ---------- #presssample #originstribe #facemask #hellocalm #skincare #skincareroutine #skincaretips #skinfood #cannabis #cannabiscommunity
  • For this week's #texturetuesday we will have a mini class on pumpkin enzymes and I will introduce you to the newest pumpkin mask to hit the #skincare scene. ---------- Pumpkin is rich in Vitamin A and Vitamin C, which can brighten the skin and provide it with antioxidant protection and boost collagen. I think it's sad that we only give pumpkins their things during the fall, when it comes to skincare, it's an ingredient that you can appreciate year round. ---------- Photographed is @delishcondish Everything But The Crust Pumpkin Enzyme Mask. My skin is a better person (softer, smoother, brighter), after just two uses. Don't play yourself, get a jar. Use HEYAPRILL at checkout for 10% off. ---------- Do you use products that contain pumpkin enzymes? Share with the class. Skincare questions? Ask away ---------- #skincareroutine #skincaretips #skincarejunkies #delishcondish #pumpkin #fall #presssample #beautyguru #pumpkinpatch #skinhealth #beautycommunity #october #skincareblogger #pumpkins #healthyskin #beautyaddict

  • Sunday is a great day to tie up those loose beauty ends to prepare for another week. One of the things I handle on Sundays is cleaning my brushes. According to Anisa International, 61% of women polled clean their brushes less than once a month. That’s a lot of bacteria, dirt, oil and old makeup residue that could potentially cause #acne. —————— So take a chance today and clean your makeup brushes. I cleanse my brushes once a week using #Dawn dishwashingliquid. It’s been my go to for years. I spot clean after every use with the three you see here. ————— Let’s talk! What do you use to clean your brushes? How often do you clean them? ————— #brushes #itcosmetics #michaeltoddbeauty #bareminerals #sephora #beauty #makeup #cleanse #skincare #skincareroutine #skincaretips
