Freeman Charcoal & Black Sugar Facial Polishing Mask Review

Freeman Charcoal Black Sugar Facial Polishing Mask

With Spring here and Winter kinda behind us I’ve been using Freeman Charcoal & Black Sugar Facial Polishing Mask to whisk away dry, flaky skin.

Dude, have I ever lead you wrong? You seriously need to try this stuff. As a hardcore fan of Lush Dark Angels and Coalface and of course, MAC Volcanic Ash I was all about it as soon as I heard “Charcoal”. Seriously, my little beauty radar begins to bleep whenever I hear charcoal. It’s been programed to do so thanks to Lush who turned me onto the joys of charcoal in my skincare!

Might sound weird but it is absolutely thee awesome.

Take a peek!

Queen Helene Mint Julep Natural Facial Scrub Review

Queen Helene Mint Julep Natural Facial Scrub

Earlier last week I raved Queen Helene Cocoa Butter Natural Facial Scrub so folks started asking me if I tried Queen Helene Mint Julep Natural Facial Scrub…but of course! Outside of the Cocoa Butter one the Mint Julep is a fav as well (although I find the Cocoa Butter one a touch more hydrating).

If your flaky skin needs exfoliating but you don’t want to drop an expensive dime on one, well, grab this little guy up for as little as four dollars and get happy, glowing, soft skin for less!

Queen Helene Cocoa Butter Natural Facial Scrub Review

Queen Helene Cocoa Butter Natural Facial Scrub

So you want a cheap facial scrub that works? Queen Helene Cocoa Butter Natural Facial Scrub is your girl! At around $3.49-$4 this cheap as chips facial exfoliator works a treat to scrub away dry, flaky skin and get skin glowing again.

I know many folks prefer and use St Ive’s Apricot Scrub but I’m honestly had a soft spot in my heart for Queen Helene Cocoa Butter Natural Facial Scrub for a few years now and honestly like it way better. It’s more finely grained, isn’t as drying, and exfoliates away my dry, flaky areas with ease without over stripping my skin.

Take a look!

Olay Fresh Effects Bead Me Up! Exfoliating Cleanser Review

Olay Fresh Effects Bead Me Up Exfoliating Cleanser1

Olay Fresh Effects Bead Me Up! Exfoliating Cleanser is a new gentle exfoliating cleaner introduced for Spring 2013. I think the Fresh Effects Collection is Olay’s attempt to garner the attention of a younger generation of beauty users. The packaging and the products just seem to have a “fun” take on skincare compared to Olay’s more mature range of anti-aging products.

I’m all about fun and fresh so I did pick this up to try out.

Let’s take a look!

MAC Mineralize Volcanic Ash Exfoliator Review

MAC Volcanic Ash Exfoliator

I thought I’d revisit with MAC Volcanic Ash Exfoliator today considering MAC has now made it permanent. I’ve been waiting for Mineralize Volcanic Ash Exfoliator to be added to the general catalog for too LONG. Since the original launch, when it was packaged in a tub, I was in love with it.

And here we are several years later with new packaging and an endless supply we can easily get our hands on. Fond farewell to my hoarding away bottles of this stuff.

Lush Let The Good Times Roll Facial Cleanser Review

Lush Let The Good Times Roll Facial Cleanser Holiday 2012

Lush Let the Good Times Roll is a new facial cleanser released for Holiday/Christmas 2012 that’s available for a short time only. Why oh why must they make these things limited edition?

As you know from many, many, many of my past posts I’m a hardcore Busche de Noel Cleanser fan. I thank the Lush gods that it’s come back each Holiday Season. Personally I think they should make it part of the standard cleanser collection and while there at it please for the love of all good facial cleansers make Let the Good Times Roll a part of it too!

Ponds Luminous Clean Daily Exfoliating Cleanser

Pond’s Luminous Clean Daily Exfoliating Cleanser is one of three new products that Pond’s released in their new Luminous Clean Collection.

This collection is meant for duller skin as it brightens skin as it cleanses. I suffer from duller skin myself. I always feel like the life is sucked out of my skin if I’m not wearing makeup that’s why I’m always on the hunt for various skincare that combats the issue and reveals whiter, brighter skin.

This collection is enriched with moisturizing ingredients and white kaolin clay which gently draws out dirt, makeup, and impurities while improving dull skin and giving your complexion a brighter look.
