My Skin Care Routine

Hey guys!!!
For a very long time I didn't care about my skin care whatsoever. The biggest reason why was because I was too lazy to do it! Last year I started watching beauty gurus on YouTube and not only were they talking about make up, but also about how important taking care of your skin is. That's when i decided to take care of my skin. I really wasn't liking the way mine was feeling at the time.

Sooooo.....in October I went to Target to purchase a couple of products to try out:

Clean & Clear Morning Burst Facial Cleanser ($4)

In the morning right after I wake up I get one pump of product and massage it all over my face till it foams up.  Then rinse it off and dry my face with a towel. My face feels very refreshed, clean, and awake. It also wakes me up a little bit especially since I am so not a morning person. 


St. Ives Blemish Control Green Tea Scrub ($6)

I only use this every couple of days while I'm taking a shower because I have Normal to Dry Skin and if I use it everyday I will get dry patches on my skin. I get a little bit of it and I massage it into my skin for 2 minutes then I rinse it off. My face feels clean and if I have a breakout it will help dry it out.

 

Clean & Clear Essentials Deep Cleaning Toner ($4)

Every night before bed I get a cotton round and put some product on it and I wipe it all over my face very gently. It helps to remove any dirt I have on my face or even any make up that didn't come off in the shower. 





Queen Helene The Original Mint Julep Masque ($4)

I only use this face mask once or twice a week. I apply the product all over my face and leave it on for 15 minutes then I rinse it off and dry my face with a towel. When you first apply the mask it smells minty and it burns a little bit. After a couple minutes you will feel it getting tight on your face. It helps with drying up any pimples and shrink enlarged pores.




Tips:

  • Anytime you dry your face with your towel make sure you pat your face dry. Especially around your eye area since it's a really sensitive area.
  • You should wash your face with your soap before you use any skin care products. I believe that with a clean face the products work better. At least for me it did. 
After a few months using these products my face has never felt better!! I'm so happy with the way my skin is feeling right now. I am definitely going to try other Clean & Clear products once I'm done with these.

Rose and Ben Beauty Brushes

 Hey guys!! I haven't done a beauty post in a while and I was in the mood to do one because I am very excited to talk about these! I started follow Rose on IG roseandben  thanks to my friend and I have been loving her content. You can see the passion she has for makeup. I love that she posts on IG stories almost everyday doing a tutorial or talking about her fav products.  I have actually purchased and few of her recommendations and 99% of the products I have bought have become staples in my collection.  When she announced she was coming out with a brand  Rose and Ben Beauty  I just knew it would be brushes because she would always be using prototypes in her tutorials. I trusted her judgment in products soooo I bought most of the collection.  Aren't these brushes beautiful?? When I first got the brushes I felt the bristles and they were so soft. The quality of the bristles and even the handles feels so luxurious. I love the color of the handles too. I ...

Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara

Hey guys!!! I saw a review on YouTube on a new mascara and after seeing that I really wanted to try it out. I went and bought the Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara in waterproof. I LOVE the Maybelline The Rocket mascara and it is my holy grail, but I always love trying other mascaras and see if it is as good or even better than The Rocket.  I really love the wand because I am able to reach the lashes in my inner corner. One important thing to me in a mascara is if the waterproof formula will keep my lashes curled all day without them falling. I am happy to say that my curl stay up all day with this mascara. This is my second Maybelline mascara that I have tried and I am noticing that if I didn't have a good makeup remover it would be really hard to remove.  This mascara gave me a little bit of length and good volume. I like to build up my mascaras and this will make my lashes clumpy after the second coat and I don't like the look.. Sometimes even if I am ...

Nails of the Week

Hey guys!!! I decided to talk about what is on my nails for the week. I will be doing this a couple times a month since I like to change my nail colors frequently! I used China Glaze polish in the color Frostbite and on top i used the Wet n Wild Wild Shine glitter polish. I am not too sure what the name of it is, but it is my favorite glitter polish to use. This was my first time using a China Glaze nail polish, but I was kinda disappointed. I had to apply the color about 3-4 times for it to be this pretty bright color. If you don't have time to sit there and apply this many coats and wait for it to dry I don't recommend this color.  The upside about this nail polish is that it lasts on your nails without chipping. Normally mine start chipping after 3 days because I wash my hands so many times a day since I work with kids. Right now its the 6th day and I only have minor chipping. Maybe I will try another color in this brand soon. You guys have any recommendatio...
