Review It!
Cosmedicine Primary Care Moisturizer

This is currently my favorite Moisturizer, in which I need to get more, since I’m almost out. I’ve always had a little of oily skin, so I didn’t really need to apply moisturizer after cleansing, but within the last year, my face started to get very dry and dehydrated. After I finished washing my face, my face was so dry and would start to get itchy. It probably didn’t help that I live in Florida, and the heat could dry my face up too. So I was on the look out for a new moisturizer. It took me a long while researching low and high end moisturizers, looking for reviews, and ever getting samples to try. I like the fact that usually higher end products I can get samples (ie: sephora), but with drugstore products you have to buy the product in order to test them. After testing a few samples, I decided to try this one.

Cosmedicine Primary Care Moisturizer – SPF 20

As Said on Sephora.com:

What it is formulated to do:

-Reverses dryness

-Helps repair the appearance of lines and wrinkles

-Bolsters skin's defenses, enhancing its ability to protect itself from both internal and external assaults to help prevent future damage

Clinical trials using state-of-the-art high resolution tools measured: -65% reduction in skin dryness -32% improvement in skin elasticity -31% reduction in fine lines and wrinkles -21% increase in hydration -71% increase in protection against free radical activity caused by UV Radiation

Recommended For SKINSTATES: -Basic Skin Health -Excessive Dryness -Sun Protection

Product: 4 blushes

Price: 3 lippies

Overall: 4 eyeshadows

Pros:

~ Gives me enough hydration and moisture for my face

~ Comes with sunscreen SPF 20, which means I don’t have to apply so much.

~ Comes in a Tube, just squeeze!!

~ A little goes a long way!

~ No distinct smell (which I like, dislike per fumy smells)

~ Very good with lessening my acne. (hence the primary care label)

~Absorbs quickly and is super lightweight

Cons:

~ Can leave a slight oily sheen on face (got use to it though)

~ Pricey @ $38

This moisturizer can be found Sephora or on Cosmedicine.com

Overall, this has been working fine for me especially during the last few summer months. It has kept me hydrated and my face is much softer and less dry. I’ve noticed after a few months of using it, that my skin as gotten so much better. (will vary)

My acne has cleared up a lot and hasn’t been scarring as much, in which I like. It’s pricey, but worth my every $$ that spend.

I will be buying this product until it doesn’t work for me anymore.

You can buy this product from Sephora.com

My Christmas List
Next up on my Christmas list is another set of eyeliners! Oh how I love eyeliners! I just love the fact that I can get so many different colors all in one set and just look at them. I don't even have to use them, I'm already in awe. Urban Decay has come out in the last few years with sets of their gorgeous 24/7 eyeliners that everyone loves. This year however, they came out with a new set (instead of the two sets) that includes both neutral and colorful liners. For the price, I think its an awesome purchase! Hopefully I get to grab it before the 30% off deal ends (shh...its NOV. 20th, this friday!!) lol.

My Christmas List!
~Every Christmas I look around for items that I really would love to have for as a present. Makeup is my LOVE!! lol, but I don't ever have the time to play with it or buy them. Hopefully I'll make the time to post up more daily blogs about my Wish Lists. It will be random things that I find that made me go "OMG, I REALLY WANT THAT FOR CHRISTMAS!!" ~I know I still have awhile till Christmas, but a girl can't wait. She's got to start up her WISH LIST NOW!! Its never too late to start one! Anyways, by the look of things, Christmas may be coming sooner than before, its not even Thanksgiving yet, and people are already talking about Christmas. First Wishlist Item that CAUGHT my EYEs:
MAKE UP FOR EVER Aqua Eyes Collector Set From Sephora.com

What it does:

"The 25 Aqua Eyes Collector Set includes the full range of 25 shades so that you can create endless eye looks. Aqua Eyes is an award-winning, waterproof, and long-lasting eye liner pencil that contains a unique formula that adheres to the eye lids and resists water—even under the most extreme conditions. Its creamy texture glides on effortlessly for precise application and intense color, and by smudging it immediately after applying to the lid, it can double as a shadow."
~I was browsing the Holiday items on Sephora.com last night and found a few items that I liked, but right when I saw the collector set, my mind went BANANAS! I was like I have to so get this set. It's full size eyeliners (not like the holiday ones) and comes in 25 different shades which is so awesome. I think the only drawback would be, of course, is the PRICE! $249 is wow, lots of money!! I guess its gonna be only a wish for this Christmas! (crossing fingers, no one buys it and then it goes on sale in the sale section of sephora.com...lol) ~I'll be hopefully posting more holiday items for every to help create their wish lists this season!
Wishing Away!!

I Loathe IKEA!!!
I Want this or one of these Drawers!!!!
So I have been to like IKEA like almost every week! literally since they opened here this MAY. I just love to look around and discover new things I didn't see the last time I went. Though usually I don't buy anything (no monies) I still love going there and see their showrooms, and what I can get to decorate my room and my future home!! I've seen these drawers a few places in the store and omy, How I want thee! LOL. Whenever I see them, I think of how all my makeup can fit into them and not have to always stuff my traincase or have makeup all over the place. I love the one with wheels, cause it can go anywhere and its small enough to be able to push around. The 9 drawer one is omy its huge...it has smaller drawers then gradually gets bigger, which is good for like eyeshadows in the first ones, then like bottles and bags on the bottom ones. $119, I guess that's not bad, its hard to find these kinds of drawers else where, but $119 is a lot too when you don't have any, lol. One day you'll be MINE!!!!! FIND THEM HERE: IKEA
ALEX = $119 (6 drawers on coasters) "This drawer can go anywhere!! I like it a lot!"
ALEX= $119 (drawer unit 9 drawers) "You know how much makeup and junk I could put in there!! LOL"
How do you store your makeup?
