After retiring my Fenty Hydra Vizor and deciding not to use it until winter, I moved on to another moisturizing sunscreen. I’ve reviewed Medik8 as a brand before and I mentioned I would be interested to try a sunscreen next, particularly because they live by the CSA motto (vitamin C, sunscreen, vitamin A). This was the time to try their highest protection one.
Last year, when I was pregnant, I was barred from using retinol. Now I’m making up for lost time. That’s why I’m reviewing Verso, a brand that revolves around promoting the use of retinol in every skincare routine.
I haven’t been afflicted with pimples in a really long time (not all is bad with pregnancy hormones) so when three of them decided to show up at the same time, it was time to bring out the big guns. I had these patches stored for something like this and now was the time to try them.
‘Tis the season for sunscreen, they say (they wrong, because sunscreen is an year-round necessity, but summer seems to bring a peak in interest). I’m trying out some new moisturizing sunscreens and I plan to bring you on this journey by reviewing them all. Let’s start with Fenty’s Hydra Vizor.
Some reviews I write because there aren’t any out there on that particular product, some I write because the products are trendy, and some I write because they are either exceptionally good or bad, and I need to tell the world about them. The Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Sleepair Intensive Mask is a product that falls in the last category.
Between the 1st and 2nd Maskerade Ball posts, two years have passed. Between the 2nd and 3rd, just 2 weeks. Can you tell I’m going through my skincare stash? Another area in my life where I have too much stuff. The good thing about it is the amount of reviews I’m able to write.
Supergoop (not to be confused or assumed to be a spin-off of Goop, the vagina-smelling candle manufacturer) is a beauty brand dedicated to sunscreen, particularly by finding ways to get people to incorporate SPF in their routine. And dedicated they are. Sunscreen never looked so different.
It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these. I have too many masks and too little time. Since time is of the essence, let’s have 5 quick reviews.
I’m going to give spoilers right off the bat: this brand is fantastic. Whatever the product, you can always rely on Paula’s Choice. And I’m not saying this because this is a hidden sponsored post (honestly, I wish) or because I’m trying to grab the brand’s attention (I’m aware of my irrelevancy), I’m saying this because Paula’s Choice is that good.
People who visit me at my house must think there is something wrong with me because I keep a pile of trash in a Selfrigdes cloth bag for months without emptying it out. The thing is, I hold off on writing empties posts for far too long and end up accumulating way too many empty containers, yet I’m not bothered enough to explain to them that I’m not nuts, just lazy.
