Undoubtedly the least helpful Shiseido review
I tried Shiseido’s Future Solution LX Regenerating Eye and Lip Contour Cream and was able to come to my first impressions. I will get my first impression out of the way really quickly. It was a thick consistency, very hydrating. I didn’t get to try it for long enough to get to know how it…

Here’s why you might not want to use retinoids
Multiple skinfluencers insist that the ingredient that you need to add into your routine now is retinoids. They tout it as the premier anti-aging ingredient. If you are deathly afraid of wrinkles, maybe you trust them and run and get the product. But now it is time to stop and think, is that really the…

What is the difference between retinol and retinal (and the other retinoids for that matter)?
Let’s geek out for a bit. Last week I tried out a product that contained retinal, not retinol, but retinal. This made me go on a journey to try and learn the differences and more about the ingredients overall. As quickly as I can, let me tell you what I found out. Retinal is one…

The beach is nature’s best spa
While I was out in the Dominican Republic, I waded out into the water. I let the waves crash into me as I reflected on the beauty of the water and fought to balance myself. I didn’t spend much time in the water, or nearly as much as I would like to have because I…

Trying out adorable eye masks from Florence by Mills
I believe that they pump something in the air that makes you more prime to make impulse buys at target. The item that got me most recently were these eye masks from Florence by Mills. Their Swimming Under The Eyes Brightening Gel Pads were the perfect item to treat myself for a mini spa day…

Are eye creams a scam?
Last week I wrote about trying an eye cream from Cle de Peau. I really liked it, but at its price, I need to really consider whether not it’s worth it. (It probably is, but that’s not the point.) If you’re like me, you have probably heard some person somewhere say that eye creams aren’t…
