Skincare for men? Lab Series Max LS Cleanser
This was new cleanser for me to try, but I’m not sure I am the best person to test it out. It is the Lab Series Cleanser for men. I am not a man. But I have a face, so hopefully that will be enough for now. I have to say that I used this…

Philosophy’s Pore extractor clay mask. Not so bad
I did not begin with high hopes for the Philosophy Pore Extractor Mask. Before I get into it, I have to admit two things. 1. I didn’t know Philosophy made skincare. 2. I am often leery of clay masks, as someone with dry skin. Philosophy Pore Extractor Clay Mask $37 for 2.5 oz Face mask…

Just a few days using the Osea Advanced Protection Cream
I tried the Osea Advanced Protection Cream over the course of three days. I was going to say that it was okay, but it was … interesting. I found that it was a thick cream that I had to work into my skin. But despite that, it didn’t leave my skin hydrated. The next day,…

Experience with the Omorovicza Moor Cleansing Cream
I have had little experience with the brand, Omorovicza. I am not even sure how to pronounce it. I wasn’t exactly sure how things would go when I tried their Moor Cleansing Cream. Following the instructions, I dampened my face. I put a pea-sized about on my fingertips, and got to work. As I moved…

So, did you know that Brad Pitt has a skincare line?
In an era where it seems a celebrity starts a skincare or beauty line every 20 seconds, it makes sense that we now have one from the man who so strongly held the title of Sexiest Man Alive. (He probably still holds on to that title in the hearts of many of his fans.) Yes,…

The Joanna Vargas Exfoliating Mask reviewed
I opened the sample packet for the Joanna Vargas Exfoliating Mask and was awed. It was pretty. I mean, it was like liquid gold. How can you not feel luxurious when rubbing your face with liquid gold. Well, when it’s filled with tiny rocks that feel as if they are rubbing off your skin, maybe…

La Retro Whipped Cream from Drunk Elephant. No comment
Drunk Elephant Lala Retro Whipped Cream $60 A lightweight, whipped, moisturizer I guess I’ll keep this short. Reminder, I have dry skin. The Lala Retro Whipped Cream didn’t do anything special for me. It seems like a dry moisturizer. What I mean about that is there is no dew. You’re not ashy, but there is…
