Body Merry Stretch Marks & Scars Defense Cream

Image
Body Merry Stretch Marks & Scars Defense Cream This cream is comprised of natural ingredients such as organic cocoa & Shea butter (to mention a few)  and it is a hydrating and nourishing cream that will reduce the appearance of stretch marks and scars. It heals, hydrates, and nourishes the skin. This cream increases the moisture in your skin and helps improve the texture as well.  To apply,  you massage the cream on the problem area until completely absorbed. It is to be applied two times a day. It is a thick cream with a light coco and Shea butter scent. It comes in a 4 fl oz orange and white jar. I began using this product a few weeks ago to try to get rid of some old scars and stretchmarks that I had. I began applying this product to the desired area at morning time and at night. But I decided after a couple of applications that I would use this as a moisturizer for my entire body to help alleviate some of my dry and itchy skin issues. 

Body Merry Retinol Surge Moisturizer

Body Merry Retinol Surge Moisturizer The  Body Merry Retinol Surge Moisturizer is used to address age spots, wrinkles, fine lines,  and other signs of aging. The product was also designed to provide even tone and texture and to help with other problem issues such as  acne and other marks. It is designed to work well on all skin types. It also can be used under makeup.  The reason why I was interested in this product was to address my dry skin issues. So after hearing great things about this product I decided to give it a try. I ordered this product through Amazon and I received it within a couple of days. I made the decision that I would apply this product at night. So right before bed,  I would clean and rinse my face and then apply a small amount of the moisturizer to my face (avoiding the eye area). I have been using this product at bed time for the last few weeks and have seen improvement. My skin feels and looks softer and my skin tone appears more even. After

Body Merry Age Defense Eye Cream is a natural organic anti aging formula that is made in the US. This product is not tested o animals and comes with 100 % satisfaction guarantee of refund for up to 90 days. It is used to fight off dark circles, fine lines, wrinkles, and puffiness. I decided to use this product to help alleviate some of the dark circles that I have under my eyes. I ordered this product from Amazon and it arrived at my house within a couple of days. It comes in a blue/green and white bottle and is 1 fl oz. The product is a light white cream that is to be applied under the eyes and under makeup. It has a soft/light pleasant scent. I have been using this product for a couple of weeks each night before going to bed and I have to say that it does work. I have seen a vast improvement in the appearance of my eyes. My eyes look and feel nice and rested and the dark circles are no longer prevalent. A little of this product definitely goes a long way. I do recomm

#Vaseline Voxbox

Image
I was able to participate in the Influenster Vaseline Voxbox. What was included in the box was a free sample of the Vaseline Intensive Care Advanced Repair Fragrance Free lotion.  I have been a big Vaseline fan ever since I was a child so I was very excited to try out this product. What I love about this particular lotion is that your skin immediately feels extremely smooth after each application. Living  in the North East, we experience a lot of cold and dry winter months where your skin feels the effects of the weather. In the winter, my skin becomes dry, cracked, and itchy.  After a week of applying this lotion, I have noticed that my skin looks better and feels smooth. The lotion provides a great deal of moisture and relief  to my skin. It no longer feels dry. My skin no longer appears scaling but looks and feels healthy. A little of this product goes a long way and that smooth feeling seems to last for hours on end. Vaseline is a great and respected company that

Valentia Skin Care-Even Glow Serum

Valentia's Even Glow Serum is used to help eliminate wrinkles, fine lines, dark spots, reduces pores, and helps in moisturizing the skin. It is comprised of all natural ingredients that include organic Rosehip Oil & Sea Buckthorn Oil, Green Tea Extract, and organic Vitamin C to mention a few. It comes in an elegant 1.18oz glass bottle. I decided to try this product because I have extremely dry skin and thought that based on its ingredients, that this would help alleviate some of my skin issues such as dry skin and uneven tones. I began using this product a couple of weeks ago as part of my skin care regimen.  It is recommended to shake the bottle for a couple of seconds prior to application. I decided that I would use this product at night. So what I did was every night before I went to bed I would wash my face and pat it dry. I would then apply a couple of drops with the dropper to my face and blend in. I applied the product to my face and neck. What I liked first

Clear, Clean, and Fresh/ Secret Outlast Completely Clean Clear Gel

Image
I was pleased to be able to try the Secret Outlast Completely Clean Clear Gel as part of a promotion for the brand. I am proud to say that I am a now a new fan and consumer and won’t be going back to my old brand! Previous to my new found love for this deodorant, I was using a popular white stick brand from a different company. I was not happy with my old brand for a number of reasons that Secret quickly corrected.  With Secret, there are no more of those nasty, embarrassing white streaks that appear on your clothes that makes you seem like you are incapable of dressing yourself.  Also, I love the packaging that it comes in not just because it is pretty, but because it is purposeful in that I can see how much product I have left before I run out. Most importantly, I feel secure when I wear it though out my day. First thing in the morning after a shower, I put it on and get dressed. I'm not worried about the visible lines that other products leave on your clothes

Ecotools Pure Complexion Facial Sponge Review

Image
        So I received the Ecotools Pure Complexion Facial Sponge in my latest Pinchme box and thought it looked interesting so I wanted to test it out.   My first impression of the sponge was mixed. It looked hard and I thought to myself...this is going to hurt my face lol. First things first, read the instructions. From my readings, I learned that the sponge was made from 100% natural ingredients. I also learned that it is to be used in the morning and night to help remove dirt, wash away any oil, makeup, and old skin cells. So before I went to bed I thought I would give it a try.   I used a facial cleanser and lathered my face. I then took the sponge and wet it in warm water. To my surprise, the sponge became extremely soft but was firm. I then began to apply the sponge to my face in a circular motion. I did this all around my face and then applied the cleanser to my neck and did the same thing. I then rinsed my face and neck. It felt really good!   What I l

Walmart Beauty Box-Fall

Image
The Walmart Beauty box is one of the new subscription boxes in the market. At $5.00 a box only four times a year (Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter) it is definitely a bargain. The $5.00 that you pay is for shipping but from the looks of what's inside, you get your money back and then some! When you sign up, you will be given a questionnaire. I believe that this is how they determine what box to send you (I believe by age as well). Below you can view the Fall box. I recently checked on their website and the Fall box is sold out! The next box which will be the winter box will be ready for shipping on the last week of November. My fall box included the following items: Secret Clinical Strength Clear Gel 1.6 OZ Olay Regenerist Advanced Anti Aging Moisturizer .5 OZ Loreal Paris Revitalift Triple Power Moisturizer .5 OZ CoverGirl Continuos Color Lipstick Iced Mauve Couture Couture by Juicy Couture Parfum Spray Sample .5 OZ Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Therapy Shampoo &am
