I am excited to provide a review of a couple of Erno Laszlo products today! They kindly gifted* these for my honest review.

Pore Refining Detox Double Cleanse* $55 – I’ve been trying this out for a while now and I keep reaching and reaching for it!  It takes off makeup, including eye makeup, using black charcoal, a fruit enzyme complex, and a kale protein blend.  I use it in the mornings and night – very nice well-rounded cleanser.  It wasn’t drying at all, which I am always afraid of when trying new cleansers.  I’m definitely going to purchase this after I am out!

White Marble Dual Phase Vitamin C Peel* $100 – I really enjoy this brightening scrub/peel…  it definitely polishes without being too harsh.  I love a good physical exfoliator.  It makes my skin so smooth and it smells incredible.  This has Vitamin C, Carrot Seed Oil (diminishes spots!!!), and Lactic acid (exfoliates).  The only thing I don’t really like about this is that it is in a tub, but it is so thick, that it really needs to be in the tub.

Antioxidant Complex for Eyes – Brightening Eye Gel – $80 – This has Vitamin C – (my favorite!!!), Mulberry Extract (lightens), and Aloe Vera (plumps)… WOW.  I really love how this hydrates underneath my eyes.  It’s so cooling.  I wear this mostly at night and it has been such a soothing gel. A little goes a long ways.

My favorite? The cleanser.  It’s really nice, easy to use, and I continue to reach for it without even thinking about it!

A big thank you to Erno Laszlo for providing these products for review.  I am so grateful!

Lots of love!

Pestle and Mortar does it AGAIN, y’all! Their Balance spritz* is an amazing hydrating mist to clarify and calm the skin!

Made with deep sea Irish magnesium, this mist helps to protect your skin from environmental stressors. It also balances sebum production!

How do I use this?

After cleansing, I spray with my eyes and mouth closed about 8-10 inches away from my face. It’s so refreshing. I let it dry down before going in with my serums and moisturizer.

I’ve also used this over makeup as well as a pick-me-up. It really is nice and hydrating during a hot, Summer day!

About

Happy Thursday friends! I hope you have had an amazing week! Today, I am excited to bring you a review of the Silk Therapeutics C Advance Anti-Aging Intensive Serum and The Eye Revive Brightening and Firming Eye Cream!

Let’s first start by saying that I was gifted these products in exchange for my honest review.

The product I was most excited to try was the Vitamin C serum. I am a BIG fan of Vitamin C, so this just popped out to me as something I would like to try. It is innovative in the fact that it uses Activated Silk, 10% Vitamin C, and hyaluronic acid. Sounds like a dream!

A little more info about Activated Silk (from website):

“Made from pure silk protein and water, Activated Silk is a scientific breakthrough born from nature, and it can only be found in our skincare.

Activated Silk:

• Partners with your skin’s collagen to promote a firm, smooth appearance
• Replaces entire classes of chemicals commonly found in skincare products
• Enables clinical-grade performance with just 12 ingredients or fewer”
• Activated Silk Website

Silk Therapeutics doesn’t use parabens, phthalates, or sulfates. They are cruelty and fragrance free. Their founder battled a rare form of Ovarian cancer at 27 and had a difficult time finding products to use for her sensitive skin that were free from harsh chemicals. Thus, Silk Therapeutics was born.

On initial application, this felt so nice. I really felt it tightening the skin, but it didn’t feel like it sunk in. I had trouble with this feeling every time I used it. I was disappointed that it provided a film like feeling. I know it is supposed to tightening, but I also really hoped it would feel like it was in my skin and not on top.

I was reading reviewsabout this just now and many love this! One lady said she was putting it under her eyes, and I thought that was a great idea! I may try that as it has some great ingredients that I would love to see work. I just can’t get past the filmy feeling. Please remember my skin type is on the dry side, so that may have something to do with it as well.

The eye revive brightening and firming cream is soooo interesting. At first I didn’t know what to think, because I opened the jar and it almost reminded me of this gritty texture, but it wasn’t gritty, it was so whipped that it looked that way. It becomes super hydrating once you rub it underneath the eye. I LOVE the way this cream feels. I don’t have terrible undereye problems, but this is perfect for someone who wants to plump and hydrate.

Overall, if I were to recommend one to try, I would try the eye cream. I’ve made a pretty big dent in it, so I am pleased that I have been able to give it an appropriate wear test.

Have y’all tried Silk Therapeutics? I think their ingredients are pretty innovative.

Wishing you all the bright fireflies,

Jnnifer

Collab mascara – it’s supposed to be AMAZING. Is it true? Can it be?

I am very excited to share my first impressions for you today! At $12.99 from Sally’s Beauty, I’m thrilled that this is super affordable. It is paraben free, which is a plus, too!

Onto the best part – how does it apply, wear, and remove?

At first application, I was amazed by how many less coats of mascara I needed! I usually pile it on, so for me, just a couple of coats is a major time-savor!

The picture below is my expression after I applied this! WHOA! This stuff is SO nice! It’s easy to apply, very black, and super lengthening. I love the volume it gives too without being clumpy. You don’t need a ton of coats.

I saved my Instagram stories on my profile so that you can go back to see how crazy good this is. I mean, WOW.

Did it come off? YES! It isn’t waterproof, which I prefer. I can’t stand when I can’t get my mascara off… drives me nuts!

A regular old cleanser will do the trick. It is super black, so it may take a wash or two.

Can I also say that I usually do NOT like wands like this? I always poke myself in the eyeball and surprisingly, I DIDN’T! It worked like a charm!

Ok – have y’all tried this? I saw Tati Westbrook try this and I had to see what it was all about. I can say, it does live up to the hype!

OH MY GOODNESS. This palette was calling my name and I couldn’t say no.

It was whispering… “Jenn, Jenn… you need me…” haha! No, not really, but it was so pretty and too good to pass up.

This is the BRAND NEW Nude on Nude “Haute Nudes Edition” eyeshadow palette by Bobbi Brown Cosmetics. These are the most beautiful rosy brown shades!

I started playing with it today! I filmed an unboxing last night on IGTV and started swatching a lot of the different shades. They are sooo good. The color wheel on this is just amazing. Not too pink, not too bold, not too gold, just right!!!

Have you seen this one? Did you pick it up?

Let me know!

If you don’t know by now, I love the chic Bobbi Brown line. I just think it is classic.

There are a few products that I absolutely love and I don’t speak of enough. Here are some of my favs, but let me tell you, this isn’t all of them! I should do a full brand overview at some point. Let me know if you like that kind of thing!

1. Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base – great primer and moisturizer… sits so well under makeup to provide a great base!
2. Bobbi Brown Extra SPF 25 Tinted Moisturizing Balm in Light to Medium Tint – ohhh this saves my skin in the Winter months, but it is also great for a tinted look in the Summer. I really enjoy this for a light, hydrated look!
3. Bobbi Brown Nude Finishing Illuminating Powder in Nude – Flawless? Did you say you wanted flawless skin? Oh, maybe a bit of a glow too? This one does the trick – not to matte, not too shiny!
4. Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer in Warm Beige – I have pigmentation that needs a bit of covering. I recently found this in my stash and I forgot how good this is! It covers and lets your skin breathe.
5. Bobbi Brown Bronzing Powder in Stonestreet – One of my favorite bronzers at the moment. It gives such a radiant flush of color – like I’ve been kissed by the sun!
6. Bobbi Brown Luxe Matte Lip Color in Razzberry (Really any color!) – this formula is key. It stays on – it is matte, but it isn’t uncomfortable at all. It’s so soft, velvet like, but with a matte finish. I have a couple of colors and they are all fab!
7. Bobbi Brown Luxe Liquid Lip Velvet Matte in Tomboy – Gosh this color is good. This is like they made it for me! (I would love to think that! haha!) Tomboy is this brownie nude, a little darker than your natural lip color, but it makes your teeth look so white! I’m all about that! Formula rocks, lasts, and doesn’t transfer too bad. A+++

These are really great products and provide such a great, natural look. I actually am excited because I have an event with Bobbi Brown on Friday. I’m so very excited!!!

Do you have a “brand?” This has just been a brand that I’ve gravitated towards for forever.

Wishing you all the bright fireflies,

Jennifer
