#5 H20+ Night Oasis Oxygenating Energizer Serum

Sorry I have been MIA on here for the last few weeks.  Anyway, let's talk about this new product that was sent to me.  If you are looking for a nighttime skin treatment to keep your face soft and moisturized then keep reading!  Awhile back I signed up with this company to do reviews on products they send to me.  The actual in person review I recorded is still in the works and it will be posted to my Youtube channel within the next few days.  The company sent me the product listed above.  The full name of it is H20 plus Night Oasis Oxygenating Energizer Serum (try saying that over and over 10x!).  The name of the product is quite a mouthful but its basically a nighttime moisturizer for your face and neck.  Every night for the past 2 weeks I have been going about my normal routine for cleansing my face and removing my makeup.  After I wash my face I put 1-2 pumps of this product and rub it on my face and neck.  The product smells like cucumber melon (yes, as in the old scent they used to promote in Bath and Body Works).  At first when you put it on it feels a tad greasy but after a few minutes my skin absorbed the product and it was ok.  The next morning my face felt soft and moisturized.  Prior to receiving this product I have been using the Clinique Dramatically Different moisturizing lotion at night (which I love and will do a review another time!).  This product was very similar and I would definitely use it again.  I'll try to post the YT review on here by the end of the week. 

Bottom line: The product does what it says it will and keeps your skin feeling fresh and feeling soft.  This product is available on the company website: http://h20plus.com/ and retails for $38. 

I'll catch up with you later!

#4 Clinique Almost Makeup

I've been wanting to buy a tinted moisturizer for awhile.  I was not looking to spend too much money for one and I didn't want a drugstore brand.  Lately I've been very conscious of my skincare.  I've been trying my best to get into a routine for taking care of my skin.  So when I decided I wanted to try a new tinted moisturizer I wanted to make a good choice.  Somehow when I think of the Clinique brand I think of clean.  I think it has something to do with the pastel colors they use or the Clinique sales people who wear those crisp white lab coats. Its hard to explain...hopefully you know what I mean.  I decided to give this brand a try because of its reputation as a brand that promotes allergy tested, fragrance and oil free products.  I think it will be good for my skin and hopefully not cause any outbreaks.  I'll be using this for my everyday looks since I only use foundation for special stuff.  I'll try to edit this later with how its been working out for me. 

XOXO,
