Ipsy July 2015 Unboxing
Hey Guys! Sorry for the lack of posts, time is in high demand lately, more so than usual it seems. I have a TON of posts planned (I’m literally on July 5 of my ‘blog schedule’ yikes), I am now waiting for the weather to be a bit better so I can get better quality photos with the natural sunlight, hopefully tomorrow! For now, I’d like to share with you what I got in my July Ipsy bag. This month’s theme was Summer Lovin’. I feel that the products I got really do embody the summer theme well. The bag is pretty cute as well, I love the bright…

Review | Boscia Balancing Facial Tonic
Hey guys, as promised here’s a review of the Boscia Balancing Facial Tonic which I showed in a previous haul, which you can read – here. After using this product daily, for over a month I think I have a pretty good feel for the product. I like to test out skincare items for much longer before I share my thoughts with you. This product contains beneficial ingredients for your skin, as you’d expect: Lavender water to calm and refresh Serine promotes softness and moisture balance Glycerin to hydrate The information about glycerin in skincare seems to be quite contradictory. I have read that it draws the moisture from the…

All I Needed Was a Toner… | Mini Sephora Haul
Recently ebates.com celebrated their birthday by offering special deals on their site. If you haven’t checked them out before – you definitely should! One of the deals was 16% cash back at Sephora.com – how could I resist? The only product I actually ‘needed’ was a hydrating toner but Sephora offers free shipping for orders over $75 so obviously I need a splurge item as well .. right? Boscia Balancing Facial Tonic – I have heard great reviews on this product and needed a hydrating toner, especially to use before applying my makeup. It contains lavender which calms and refreshes, and serine which promotes softness and moisture balance. So far…

Empties | Products I’ve Used Up
Today I thought I’d do my first empties/products I’ve used up post because I had a few items collected in my basket and I noticed this morning I’m about to run out of a ton of products in the coming weeks. The thought of my first empties post being even longer than this one seemed a bit too daunting to me for whatever reason. Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer for Fair to Medium Skin Tones. I’ve had this floating around my stash for almost 3 years. I never used it that consistently because I found that if you applied it a few days in a row, which is its intended…

The Body Shop Fuji Green Tea
(Source) I was quite intrigued by The Body Shop’s release of the Fuji Green Tea range, mostly because of the Bath Tea. It seemed like a strange concept, that as the bath lover I am, I just had to try it. The bath tea itself is essentially bath salts mixed with real green tea leaves. The scent is truly wonderful, I felt so relaxed. You have to buy the Fuji Green Tea bath infuser separately for $5, which is kind of annoying. You put a scoop of the bath tea in it and let it ‘brew’ in your warm bath. The infuser allows the bath salts to dissolve into your…
