Estee Lauder DayWear Anti-Oxidant BB Creme SPF 35

Estee Lauder DayWear Anti Oxidant BB Creme SPF 35

I’ve reviewed Estee Lauder Cyber White Extra Intensive BB Cream in a prior post. This was introduced in Japan about a year or so ago. We won’t be getting the Cyber White version but Estee Lauder is releasing a BB Cream.

Gasp.

Excitement.

Available in two shades this lightweight BB Cream promises moisture, protection (SPF 35), and an antioxidant rich formula that controls excess oil.

It’s $38 and is available now at Nordstrom.

Stila Stay All Day HD Beauty Balm

Stila Stay All Day HD Beauty Balm

I know I posted about this yesterday but just wanted to update you on the new Stila Stay All Day HD Beauty Balm aka Stila BB Cream. It looks like Ulta is claiming it as an exclusive but I suspect by Summer it’ll be available everywhere but don’t quote me there.

I still don’t have a ton of info but here’s some updated details I do have.

It’s $38, available in one shade, and claims to be the typical all-in-one BB Cream that reduces fines lines while perfecting skin and brightening it.

I think the fact that it comes in one shade definitely bodes well for the product as most traditional Asian BB Creams are available in one to two shades at most.

I already ordered it so expect a review soon.

Available now at Ulta.com
I’m definitely curious about this one and as I suspected BB Creams are a prominent part of Spring 2012.

Proactiv Refining Mask Review

Proactiv Refining Mask

Proactiv Refining Mask is a deep cleansing sulfur face mask that helps to deep clean and minimize pores.

I tried a sulfur mask from one of my favorite brands a few years ago and holy cow it smelled awful, rotten eggs anyone?

Surprisingly enough this mask has a fresh floral scent, seriously, for something that contains a ton of sulfur I expected it to smell super bad so I was surprised.

I’m suffer from drier skin and not a ton of problems with spots or acne but this is a nice way to clear up any issues should they rise up and obviously a great one should you have battle with acne daily.

Proactiv was kind enough to send over a sample for me to try out and I gave it a whirl because I’m pretty much up for trying out anything new in the skincare world. Love beauty but skincare junkie I happen to be as well!

This is a creamy mask that you can apply all over your skin and leave on for 10 minutes proceeding to rinse after the time is up. I held off using it until I had skin issues that skin issue happened to be a breakout on my jaw line from holding a phone against my face all day explaining and re-explaining a return premium to a client of mine ugh!

This didn’t clear up my problem completely but it did try up the spots I had and I followed up with a little Proactiv Treatment Gel and I was go to go. Didn’t have to whip out a band aid and plead to people that I really was hiding a scratch under it and not a big old pimple!

Got spots?

Grab this one from proactiv.com
