Wet n Wild Mega Last Lipsticks

A girl can never have enough lipsticks in her life.. right?! Especially when you find them on sale and they turn out to be some amazing lipsticks. Yes, that's what happened to me.

I went to Walgreens and just to check out what makeup is on sale since I heard they were having a sale on a lot of makeup. I have been wanting these wet n wild lipsticks since one of my followers on instagram posted a picture of hers and told how much she loved them, so I just had to get my hands on them. Luckily, I had found them at Walgreens and the best part was that they were on sale!

 

The original price was I think $2.20 and they had dropped down to $1.50 which is not bad because these lipsticks are gorgeous and I love them so much! You can compare them to mac matte lipsticks which are $16 so these are like dupes which are pretty amazing. Yeah, maybe the price might make you think they wont be of good quality but trust me, they come on very pretty. They are semi matte and have a creamy texture so they leave your lips feeling soft and hydrated.

 

 

 

They were all mostly gone and I couldn't get a few colors but the ones I was able to get my hands on, are very pretty. One of them called Cherry Picking is definitely a dupe for Pleasure Bomb by MAC from the Rihanna Holiday Collection. The others I am not sure of exactly.

 

If you find these lipsticks anywhere, I suggest you get them because they are such lovely colors and perfect for spring!

Skin Moisturizers

Hey dolls! I am going to share some more skin care products I like to use on a daily basis.

There are so many things out there but it is always about the type of skin you have which helps you to determine what products are safe for your skin especially if you are like me who suffered/suffers from acne. Bummer!

I love makeup so I always play around with it and I do wear makeup a lot so I make sure I take care of it very good since makeup can break you out if you don't choose the right products.

 

ALWAYS make sure the makeup you buy such as foundation, powder, etc. is oil free and non comedogenic.

 

Before I apply and makeup product on my face, I use a moisturizer. Now to choose the best moisturizer, focus on how your skin is. Is it oily or dry? Acne prone or not?

Mine is oily so I always make sure the products I buy are OIL FREE because you don't want excess oil do you? I'm sure not. Then there are people who don't have oily skin but have excessively dry skin which can also be irritating. For dry skin, you would need something that is oil based so because your skin needs that oil to make it less dry.

 

Since I have oily skin, I use an oil free moisturizer by Neutrogena and has SPF 15. It is 4 fl oz and is $9.99.

It wont clog pores, is alcohol free, fragrance free so it has no smell at all, and it is hypoallergenic. I always use this before I apply makeup so that the natural oils on my skin wont make my makeup look shiny so this moisturizer helps to stop the shine and it makes my makeup look flawless all day long.

 

 

That is for oily skin but if you have dry skin, you might want to look into products that will protect your skin from the sun and restore your skins natural barrier so the dryness can lessen. A really good one that I recommend is by +CeraVe Skincare and it is called the AM Facial Moisturizing Lotion which has SPF 30 and it is for normal to dry skin but you can find it in other ranges too depending on your skin. This is also non-comedogenic and from the AM, you can tell that it is used in the morning but there is one for PM.

 

Another one of my favorites and also the last one will have to be the +Cetaphil Daily Moisturizer with sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 15. This was the moisturizer that was recommended to me by my dermatologist when I was dealing with severe acne. He told me this wouldn't irritate my skin and would help protect my skin in the sun. This is the one for ALL skin types which makes everything easier because you wont have to be looking for a specific one for your skin type. It is non-comedogenic, non-greasy, lightweight, and has no fragrance. It comes in a 4 fl oz bottle and is also around $10 (don't know the exact price sorry) but I know it's not more than $10.

 

 

Well these are the products I use before applying makeup to protect my skin and also keep it safe under the sun. Always make sure you moisturize everyday because your skin needs it whether it is in the morning before you go out or at night before you sleep. Moisturizing is good for the skin!

My Skin Care Routine

Hi everyone! Today I am going to be sharing my skin care routine with you. I have dealt with severe acne cases during my teens and scars which I still have from the inflammations. My skin is acne prone, oily, and has scars from previous breakouts. I have even went through cystic acne which is honestly very bad and I am so happy I don't have to deal with that anymore. You know why? Because I learned how to take care of my skin. I will do a post on skin care soon but this is all about how +Dermalogica  changed my life.
I am so glad I came across their products because they are AMAZING. They are definitely not cheap. They are expensive but I promise you they are worth the price and when you have bad skin, trust me you will do anything it takes to clear it up lol

Okay so I use four +Dermalogica  products and they are listed as how I use them in order:

 

1. Clearing Skin Wash 8.4 oz and it is $36.00
I use this right after I take my makeup off and use it gently on my face and wash it off it warm water.

 

 

2. Daily Microfoliant 2.6 oz and it is $52.00
It is a powder like substance and it helps your skin to brighten up. If you have sensitive skin like me, use it very gently. It is for all skin conditions.

 

 

3. Oil Control Lotion 2 oz and it is $42.00
It is a moisturizer and it stops your skin from shining. I usually use this before I put makeup on so it doesn't make my skin look so shiny since I have really oily skin.

 

 

4. Sebum Clearing Masque 2.5 oz and it is $45.00
This is my FAVORITE product by them. I absolutely love it.
You can use this all over your face and leave it on for 10-15 mins and then wash it off with warm water, but what I do is, if I have a breakout, before I got to sleep, I dot it all over my face wherever I feel like a pimple is about to come or if there is one there already and I sleep with it on. When I wake up, I wash it and either the pimple has dried out or it is completely gone. This works wonders and I am out of it so I need to go get some more! This is a must have product. I promise you will love it. Just remember not to put it all over your face like a masque before you go to sleep. Only dot your face.

 

So yes these are my skin care products and that's the routine above I use on a daily basis every morning and night. You will see a difference if you keep up with the routine. If I have then you will too. Never have I been happier with my skin as I am today. Thank you +Dermalogica :)
