Did Clinique Hydrosurge hydrate my dry skin?
I’ve got a quick review for you of the Clinique Moisture Surge™ 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator. Okay, okay, I must admit that I have tried this product before and wasn’t impressed.

Did I get results using the Dior Capture Totale Cell Energy Super Potent Rich Crème?
I just finished using the Dior Capture Totale Cell Energy Super Potent Rich Crème Sigh, I have to admit up front, I was not consistent using it. Over that period of time, I struggled with keeping to a good routine. I wasn’t even washing my face properly. I know. I am sorry to have disappointed…

At $295 per jar, I am glad that I didn’t fall head over heels for the Elemis Ultra Smart Pro-Collagen Enviro-Adapt Day Cream.

Augustinus Bader rich cream: A quick dry skin type review
The last skincare review I posted about was the Sunday Riley Good Genes. Well, that was mess. After likely over-exfoliating my face, I was left with skin in worse condition than when I started.

My quick foray into La Mer products: My experience as a dry skin type
I was able to get my hands on deluxe samples of La Mer products thanks to virtual events with Sephora and Nordstrom. As I have said before, I have dry skin, made worse by my refusal to drink water. (I’m working on that.) All of my thoughts are based on that skin experience. If you…

Thoughts on the Laneige cream skin moisturizer (honest opinions from my dry skin)
Many people have talked up Laneige to a level that makes is seem like magic sent from fairies. Their lips are always lush. Skin always dewy. Meanwhile, I tired the lip sleeping mask and found my lips becoming flakier and flakier as time progressed. I tried the Lip Glowy Balm, even bought a three pack…
