On Christmas vacation, we do masks & peels! 😌

Skincare pick of the week! ✨

This Drunk Elephant Skin Care pair belongs together! 🫱🏼‍🫲🏾
I wanted to highlight the Retinol Cream for the week, but, not without the mention of the B-Hydra Serum! When using retinol, I use a serum before so that my skin has hydration at the barrier level. I use the retinol cream at night twice a week to help with my fine lines and over all texture! The hydra serum I use daily, BEFORE moisturizer. This brand has the best ingredients and they also offer kits to try before committing to full sized products! 😇

I’ve lived so many different lives & met so many versions of myself. Some have been hard to face. But, every time I’ve loved myself more and am grateful to shed those old versions & grow into the next. Blessings in the lessons! 😌❤️

The sky is beautiful this morning 😍🌅

Everyone enjoy their weekend! 🫶🏻✨
Yours truly.

15 days to Christmas! 🎄🎁
Who is ready and who is still out hohoho’ing?

Side by side, 1 hr comparison of the Peach and Lily collagen mask I was telling y’all about! I wear mine overnight for full glass skin affect. Can you tell I was tired? 😴😇

Skincare pick of the week! ✨

I had seen so many viral collagen masks and was on the hunt for one to try and I am obsessed with the Peach and Lily! Cannot gate keep this one 😮‍💨
It seals to your skin and turns translucent the longer it is on & sooo satisfying to remove.
If you want glass skin this one is for you!

Tell me, tell me!

What’s YOUR favorite skincare product?

Skincare pick of the week! ✨

Where are my mask lovers? This snail jelly mask by Peach Slices is soooo unique in texture - it’s velvety and jelly at the same time!

The snail craze hit the industry a while back, so in true fashion, I avoided it for a while to see which items stood the test of time. I’m happy I did and chose this one for under twenty dollhairs at Ulta! I recommend using this mask after you’ve cleansed, highly recommend using after exfoliating, let it sit on the skin for 15 mins and rinse off. During rinse off, I recommend using the water to massage the product off vs just rinsing - work it into the skin while wet! Use 1 - 2x a week, perfect for this time of year.

The benefits of snail mucin for the skin include even skin tone, cell regeneration and collagen production thanks to antioxidants which reduce signs of aging as well as protect the skin from free radical damage! It also contains hyaluronic acid which is deeply hydrating and repairs the skin barrier.

Skincare pick of the week! ✨

This Provence Banana Bliss serum has been a game changer! I was on the hunt for something new when my hyaluronic serum ran out and picked this one because

🫧 it was reasonably priced
🫧 it’s a different consistency then I’ve used
🫧 AHA + BHA
🫧 banana 🍌

Hyaluronic acid is so popular in skincare because it is a natural humectant that can hold multiple times its weight in water! This brings immediate hydration to the skin and works deeper to restore plumpness and firmness over time.

AHA (glycolic and lactic) + BHA’s (hydroxy/salicylic) are similar to each other as they are both a form of chemical exfoliants. They work together to diminish sun damage, fine lines and break outs. My skin has become so soft and luminous from using this! This is the first I’ve incorporated a product with AHA + BHA into my skincare routine so I’m really seeing a difference.

This should be used after the skin has been cleansed, toned w appropriate toner or essence if using one, and prior to moisturizer. Finish with SPF. I do NOT recommend layering this with other serums as it is enough on its own and should NOT be paired with retinols or vitamin c products.

Alternating products is crucial and key for a proper skincare routine!!!
