Beauty Products Empties #04
1. Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch
Contains Vitamin E and Acacia Micro-pearls. It can be used alone or under makeup. I use it as a primer, a base.
It blurs pores and fine lines. It feels nice on my skin as it goes on smoothly. I would repurchase. I give it 10/10.
2. Arnaud Paris Serum Eclat Jeunesse
Contains caffeine and grape seed extract. It lifts, firms and sculpts the skin. I really do like it. I see a difference in lifting my skin. It gives a radiant complexion to my skin. I highly recommend it. And I would repurchase after I use up my serums.
3. YSL Radiance Smoothing Foundation SPF 8
I love this foundation. It is full to medium coverage depends on how much you apply because it is buildable. It is a liquid foundation with a pump bottle that gives a smooth finish to the skin. It conceals any imperfections. It feels luxurious on the skin. I use a foundation brush or sometimes my fingers to apply it. I use the shade 1 when I’m tanned. Lovely product and would repurchase.
4. Clarins Ultra-Matte Rebalancing Lotion Oily Skin
I’m a fan of Clarins products and this lotion is no exception. Very lightweight on the skin. Leaves a shine free complexion. But I have to say it doesn’t leave a powdery matte finish like I want it to be. Not the best product for keeping oily skin at bay for a long time.
Do I recommend it? Yes, if your skin is combination to normal. But, for the oily skin out there, I don’t recommend it because it doesn’t do anything to Mattifies the oily skin.
5. Dolce and Gabbana The One Perfume for women
It is Amber Floral fragrance. Top notes are Peach, Litchi, Mandarin Orange and Bergamot. And bergamot scents are my favorite. Middle notes are Lily, Plum, Jasmine and Lily of the valley. Base notes are Vanilla, Amber, Musk and Vetiver.
Very hot, sharp scent. I like it. It is an old perfume that was launched in 2006. But, it is still a favorite. I have to say that you only have to apply it lightly because it is definitely a heavy scent. I would like to say, it is suitable to apply in winter time.
6. Flora by Gucci Perfume
It is on the bottle that it is a gorgeous gardenia and I can’t agree more. It is so feminine, floral scented. Top notes are Pear tree flower. Heart notes are white gardenia, and jasmine. Base notes are red sugar and patchouli.
I have the old bottle because I had it for so long in my perfume collection. I would repurchase the new beautiful bottle because it is a beautiful gardenia scent.
7. Champneys Mediterranean Bliss Shimmering Body Oil
With jojoba and sesame oil. Lovely on the body. It leaves a nice glowy shimmer. It’s a big bottle and I couldn’t use it up but it went bad.
The packaging is pleasant to the eyes with its golden shimmery color. I like to apply it on a sun kissed body for a summery glow.
8. L’ACOUAROSSA FENDI Perfumed Shower Gel and Body Lotion
A shower gel and body lotion that smells a lovely floral. I got it as a gift set. Not much to say about it other than it is floral and smells nice.
9. Dr.Jart+ Porecting Solution Bubbling Sheet Mask
The key ingredients are Soapberry Tree Extract and activated charcoal sheet that purifies pores. It controls excess oils. Tightens enlarged pores.
When you apply it, it bubbles. I really did enjoyed it but it is not my favorite sheet mask out there. I’m in hunt for the best sheet mask and this one is not it.
It comes in a pack of 5 individual sheet masks. You apply it for 10-20 minutes. One thing I didn’t like about this sheet mask is the film that felt after using it.
10. Briogeo Don’t Despair Repair Deep Conditioning Mask
Contains corn, wheat, and soy protein. Rosehip + Algae extract..
I apply it after shampooing, message into hair, leave on for at least 10 minutes, then rinse. I used it once a week.
The texture of the mask is creamy. It smells like a hint of coconut.
I feel like it did not help with conditioning and hydrating my hair. I didn’t notice a difference and I would not repurchase.
11. Sephora Cherry Blossom Exfoliating Body Scrub
It is a gentle scrub. The gel like texture and the scent is nice like cherry. But I’m not a fan of gentle scrubs. I wouldn’t repurchase because of how gentle it was. If you are a fan of gentle exfoliators then you will like this scrub.
12. Kerastase Specifique Balancing Shampoo
For oily roots, sensitized lengths. With Amino Acid + Vitamin B6.
I like this shampoo for my oily scalp. It is one of my favorite shampoos. It is not sulfate free though. It didn’t dry my hair. I would repurchase during summer months when my hair gets oily.
Overall, I’m a big fan of Kerastase hair products. Nothing I tried I didn’t like.
13. Dr. Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Exfoliating Body Treatment
Includes 8 textured towels, the size of 8.5” * 5.5” enough for one month supply for optimal result I used it twice a week.
It contains AHA/BHAs to brighten, firm, clear body blemishes, hydrate, smooth tone and texture. And it did all of that to my body. The best exfoliator for the body I ever tried. It helped with my KP (Keratosis Pilaris). Also, I’ve noticed significant improvement in discoloration.
It is very easy to use. I apply after shower on a dry toweled skin, massaging it upwards using circular motions. I used it everywhere on my body concentrating on targeted areas like my arms and buttocks. I continued until the towel is completely dry.
I would definitely repurchase. It is a holy grail body product.
