Tell me how you really feel about the Caudalie Beauty Elixir
I sat watching the video, as they praised the Caudalie Beauty Elixir. It was a must-have that multiple staff members kept at their desks to mist throughout the day. I kept that parked away in the recesses of mind. “Must be a good product. I should try it one day.” And then I found myself,…

Did you know Chanel made sunscreen?
Curiosity got the best of me as I walked through Nordstrom one day. That’s how I ended up with a Chanel sunscreen. I have been using their UV Essentiel and now the tube is almost empty. It’s time for a review. Among the claims that Chanel makes are that it will protect you from the…

A little bit of Dior’s Hyalushot, and a little expert advice
I had been using the Dior Hyalushot and noticed that it was behaving weirdly. It was getting gummy and stringy. I chalked it up to being a bad product. And then I signed for a one-on-one consultation with a Dior virtual advisor. “How much are you applying?” She was horrified to learn that I had…

Clearing things up with the Innisfree clay mask

You think I have a pore minimizing product on?!” The truth was that I had only put on some blush and concealer under my eyes, no complexion product. I went to the mirror and noticed that yes, my pores…

I tried the Augustinus Bader Skin Infusion on my face. This is what happened for me.
Curiosity got the best of me, and I decided to try the Augustinus Bader Skin Infusion for myself. This is a four-week bootcamp for your skin. Augustinus Bader claims it should help refine skin texture, prevent premature skin aging, and lead to more resilient skin. I was willing to see what else it would do…

Here is what you should know about Augustinus Bader’s new skin infusion
Augustinus Bader came out with their product the Skin Infusion. I attended a virtual workshop hosted by Alex Steinherr and esthetician Melanie Grant to learn more about it. This is what I learned.

The new La Mer night cream seems like a tempting splurge
La Mer has recently released a new night cream that contains a retinol alternative. The new Rejuvenating Night Cream is listed as for all skin types, but it is especially intended for sensitive skin types seeking anti-aging solutions. The ingredient, MRA-3™, increases cell turnover, similar to retinol, but should be less irritating. And of course,…

Using a super luxe Cle de Peau sunscreen
If you aren’t new here, you will know that I am gradually becoming more and more impressed with Cle de Peau. Gradually because the price of the items means that it will take me a while to experience all of the products. This time, I tested out their UV Protective Cream. Quick caveat, I have…
