Juara Avocado Banana Moisture Mask









I read great reviews on this mask and I thought I should give it try. The only one problem with this mask, well it turns out I am allergic to avocado. Although, it didn’t stop me from using the mask. The creamy mask goes on smoothly and washes off fairly easy. It doesn’t have a strong scent which is okay because I mostly like only floral scents [ I am spoiled :) ] The mask is infused with nourishing avocados that hydrates and bananas that soften skin.  Upon application, my face started burning and stingy but after washing it off my face; it was a bit sensitive and felt a bit tight. I followed up with some moisturizer and my face felt amazing smooth and soft. Even couple of days afterwards my face still had a dewy look and felt soft like butter [I am so hungry now]. I love this mask, I am just a bit sad my dumb self had to be allergic to avocados. Perhaps, I can build up a resistance?

Dove Hair Therapy Nutritive Solutions Daily Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner






This new shampoo and conditioner goes to the hair’s cellular level to promote healthy hair with the Pro-Moisture Complex. With just one wash, the duo promises to moisturize for 5X smoother hair without excess residue or weighing down hair. The creamy shampoo provides a generous lather and washed out clean. The conditioner left my hair silky smooth and soft. I did notice though when I used a lot of product my hair looked greasy. So, use a little and you still notice some results.

Sephora Collection Ultra Vinyl Lip Pencil - Fuchsia Fever



This creamy lip pencil goes on smoothly and lasts. It leaves my lip feeling soft and moisturized. I love the hot pink color and it is packed with glitter. Although, I might say it might have more glitter than some people might like but I like looking like a disco ball. I would recommend making sure to exfoliate your lips and apply a bit of lip balm before using this lip pencil so the glitter doesn’t stick to any flakes [trust me it is not pretty]. I also like when the color fades away there is a slight stain and glitter left over and it looks great when you apply a little clear lip gloss over it. 

**I lost the photos with my swatches but I think I have a little nub of this left to re-swatch it...just have to find it!**

I finally did  get to retake the photos, but I am not going to lie -- it felt a bit weird to take close up of my lips.

I was trying to get a better shot but it looks like I am just making out with the camera

Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint SPF 20 in Bronze

After my friend kept telling me how great this tinted moisturizer is. I decided to give it a whirl.  The creamy tint is packed with ginseng and gingko biloba leaf extracts.  I applied it to my face after cleansing and it left a soft glow. I didn’t notice any coverage or evening out my many imperfections such as my dark spots [and acne scars] or wrinkles. I like this tint because it makes my skin soft, smooth and glowy and as a added benefit it provides sun protection. This moisture tint is good for people with sensitive skin because  it is oil free, hypoallergenic and fragrance free. Overall, I will save this moisturizer on special occasions when I need to feel extra glow.

Sephora Collection - Age Defy Moisture Cream SPF 15

This is one of my favorite moisturizers by Sephora. It softens, moisturizes and provides SPF protection.  I was in love with the old formula but the new formula is even better.  The creamy formula is light and is not greasy or leaves a sticky residue behind. It is packed with HydroSenn+ and  lipoamino acid. I like how it kept my face moisturized for the entire day without having to worry about my skin looking dry.
