What's hidden under my Foundation!!

Hey Beauties,

 I have been very naughty. How you ask? Well I have been very bad with maintaining my skin care system. I give advice on what to use and how but yet I don’t take my own advice. I used to get home really late form night shifts and the first and last thing I wanted to do was sleep. My skin has suffered from this.

Foundation has been my god. Many people do say  I have nice skin. But Under my foundation lies some very nasty surprises including Black head, white heads, uneven pigmentation and dryness. When you see the picture it may look not that bad at all. But I used to have the clearest skin and just had trouble with sensitivity.

I have spilt my skin care into 2 parts as you will see why.

AM:

• Kiehl’s Cleansing Milk. (I always cleanse my face twice)
• Kiehl’s ultra Facial Toner.
• Kiehl’s Creamy Eye Treatment .
• Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream.

PM:
At night ill be using the same treatments but adding in

• Peter Thomas Roth Gentle Completion Correction pads.  

Helps with the management of acne and clears up acne blemishes and blackheads.

Every second day I’ll be using

AM:

• Kiehl’s Cleansing Milk. X2
• Kiehl’s ultra Facial Toner.
• Kiehl’s Creamy Eye Treatment .
• Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream.

PM:

• Kiehl’s Cleaning Milk. X2
• Kiehl’s Ultra facial Toner.
• Alpha H Lquid Gold Prep and Prime.

With the Alpha H liquid gold you don’t use a moisturizer other wise you will not get the true results. Also you must apply sunscreen everyday as this contains Glycolic acid.

Once a month I’ll get back to you on how my skin is doing J and if anything has changed.
Also if I have changed any products.

Kiehl's Eye Cream.

Hey Beauties,

                

                 I have never had a eye cream before I’m only 21 so I thought I would never need it until later down the track. But lately I have seen signs under my eyes like dehydration.

When I was in the city about a month ago. I decided to pick up the Kiehl’s Creamy eye treatment with avocado.

For my first ever eye treatment this is wonderful. It a very smooth creamy texture, Easy to work with and extremely hydrates the skin and sinks right into the skin.

On the jar it does state that the cream does not migrate into your eye. This is very true, as I have had no problems at all.

Skin Type:

Works for all Skin types.

Ratings:

4 out of 5 stars

 

Ingredients:

Aqua/Water, Butyrospermum, Shea Butter, Butulene Glycol, Tridecyl Sterate, Isodecyl, Salicylate, Avocado oil, Magnesium Sulphate, Sorbitan Sesquioleate, Phenoxyethanol.

SCRUB A DUB DUB

I had recently lost my MAC volcanic ash Scrub :(

At the Kiehl’s event I received the Pineapple papaya facial scrub made with real fruit extracts.  I love this scrub at the moment. I do have sensitive skin so some scrubs are way to harsh for my skin.

This scrub does not have too much scrub grains.  That’s the main reason it’s not harsh for my skin.  You only need a pea size of product to do your whole face. So it will last you a long time. Smell wise its not too strong and has a hint of pineapple.

My nose was extremely bad. It felt like sand paper after using the scrub it’s all nice a smooth just the way i like it.

Kiehl’s Pineapple papaya scrub is suitable for All skin types.

I love this scrub as it does what it says. To help exfoliate the skin gently and

naturally.

100ml RRP: $38.00.

Last for 12 Months once opened

TIP: Don’t over exfoliate once or twice a week it’s enough. If you do use a scrub to often you will strip your skin of all the natural oils.

 

Ingredients: Aqua/Water, Peopylene Glycol, Behenyl Betaine, PPG-5-Ceteth-10 Phosphare, PEG-100 Stearate, Glycery Stearate,  Phenoxyethanol, Luffa Cylundrica/luffa Cylindrical Fruit, Methylparabrn, PEG-32 Prunus Armeniaca/Apricot Seed Powder, Tocopherol, Allantoin Ascorbyl Palmitate, Sesaum Indicum/ Sesame Seed Oil, Aloe Barbadensis/Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Prunus Amygdalus Dulicis Oil/Sweet Almond Oil, Prunus Armeniaca/Apricot Kernel Oil, Anabas Sativus/Pineapple Fruiy Extract, Carica Papaya/Papaya Fruit Extract Fmla 

I give this scrub 4 out of 5 stars :D

Have a great weekend Beauties
