Tula Instant De-Puff Eye Renewal Serum
You’ve probably heard a lot of people, especially bloggers, rave about Tula online for the past few years. I finally tried the brand in the fall when I got the Brightening Eye Balm. I’ve been using another Tula product the past few weeks and it just so happens to be another eye product. I have been wanting to try the Instant De-Puff Eye Renewal Serum for a while because I love eye products and the idea of the cooling tip seemed so refreshing. Here’s how the product is described: TULA’s Multi-Spectrum Eye Renewal Serum is like a cup of coffee for your dark circles. Refresh the look of tired eyes…

December 2019 Favorites
Every month seems to fly by and I pretty much always say that, but I can’t believe we’re at the last day of 2019! Not just the last day of December, but the last day of the year and decade. It’s so crazy to think about. A lot has changed in the past 10 years and some things have stayed the same. The way 2019 started is really different from the way 2019 is ending. This year I moved out of my townhouse that I had bought with my brother and bought a condo of my own. Spent almost 3 months getting it renovated and just recently moved in. It’s…

VBeam Session 5
On Wednesday I had my 5th and final VBeam laser session! For those of you who don’t know, I started getting VBeam laser treatments on my face back in August. Over the past few years whenever I would get a pimple it would leave a scar/dark mark on my face. This has never happened to me before when I was younger and while I never get horrible breakouts with a lot of acne, I do get 1-2 at a time every now and then. But all those pimples add up when you take in to account that each time it would leave a mark on my face. So last year…

VBeam Laser Session 4
I had my 4th VBeam laser treatment session on Wednesday and like my previous posts on the treatment I wanted to do a post on it. Not much to report this time so it will be a quick post! If you’re new around here, I started doing VBeam laser treatments at Reflections Center for Skin & Body in August after a consultation. I wanted to get rid of some scars/dark marks on my face from pimples. The procedure is extremely quick. You clean your face, the nurse put the goggles on you, the doctor zaps your face with the laser which stings/burns a little but isn’t too painful, and then you’re…

VBeam Laser Session 3
I had my 3rd VBeam laser session last week and I wanted to give you a brief update! So after my 2nd session I had some swelling and a very dark bruise. My doctor said she had increased the setting of the laser, so knowing this when I went for the 3rd session I told the nurse about what had happened last time. She said it was good that I let them know so they can adjust accordingly. She told me that a lot of times they do the 1st session on the standard setting and if that goes well they sometimes increase the power for the 2nd session, but…

Tula Brightening Eye Balm
For months and months I’ve seen people on social media rave about Tula’s Brightening Eye Balm. Maybe you have too. So I really wanted to see if it was worth the hype especially because my eyes are always tired looking when I’m back at work for the school year. However, this eye balm stick is so popular that it is often out of stock! So I waited for a while to get it. Of course, right when I got it Tula launched their new Rose Glow version of the eye balm! So is it worth all the fuss? I like the balm and I enjoy the feeling of it, but I…

Skinfix Barrier+ Lipid Boost Jelly
I love trying out all kinds of face serums. I may or may not stockpile them and enjoy finishing one so I can break open a new one that I’ve either bought or have been generously sent. Skinfix’s Barrier+ Lipid + Hyaluronate Serum or Lipid Boost Jelly as it’s also called on the bottle is one that I was sent. First off, I love the sturdy packaging and bright blue color of this line. The top comes off and I just do one pump to apply all over my face. Here is how it is described: A super-concentrated cream-jelly that delivers potent actives in a surge of moisture to hydrate,…

Estée Lauder -Revitalizing Supreme Global Anti-Aging Créme
Yes, this moisturizer is called “créme” because we’re fancy. Just kidding, I’m not that fancy, but Estée Lauder is a high end brand so let’s pretend! Plus, the price tag on this créme will make you feel fancy. I was lucky enough to be sent a sample size to try out and I’ve been using it for a week now to see if I thought it was worth the price of a full size ($55 for 1 oz. and $85 for 1.7 oz). Keep reading for my thoughts! First, let’s go over the facts. Here is how the brand describes the moisturizer: “Featuring an exclusive RevitaKeyâ„¢ technology with exclusive moringa…

Laser Session 1
A few days ago I underwent my first laser treatment. If you follow my Instagram Stories then you may have heard me talk about it both before and after the session. Due to a few annoying breakouts over the years, I have slowly accumulated a few acne scars on my cheeks. They are decently covered up by makeup, but unless I really want to pile it on they’re still faintly visible. If I’m not wearing makeup they’re noticeable. So after a year of thinking about it I decided to go for a consultation at a medical spa – Reflections Center for Skin & Body – recommended to me by my dermatologist.…

Skinfix: Calm & Rejuvenate Eye Cream
If you’ve been following me for a while then you know I love trying new skincare products. I’ve written about a number of products from Skinfix over the years and they were kind enough to send me an eye cream. They sent this to me a while ago but I’ve been trying to use up some other eye creams I had open. But now I’ve been using the Calm & Rejuvenate Eye Cream for the past few weeks and I love how creamy it is. Well, it’s creamy, but doesn’t feel oily or greasy under my eyes and sinks in pretty quickly so you don’t need to worry about how it will…
