SkinFood Pineapple Peeling Gel Review

the Muse — Thu, 17 May 2012 00:45:02 +0000

I went through this phase where peeling gels were kinda my deal. However, if you have terribly dry skin they really aren’t a great pick for exfoliation.

However, if you’re sensitive, oily, or combo they are a gentle way to exfoliate skin without stripping it. On the upside, they are also easy enough to use daily which makes for a great pick for drier skin which tends to go dry if you’re using an exfoliator that’s gritter or “scrubbier” for lack of a better word.

Skinfood Pineapple Peeling Gel is a gentle way to exfoliate skin.

How’s it work?

Clinique Stay Matte Oil Free Makeup Review and Swatches

the Muse — Wed, 16 May 2012 23:28:23 +0000

In need of a matte foundation?

I am, my skin is in freak out mode. With the weather turning from hot to cold, I’m oily one second and dry the next.

This week in particular was a good time to test out the new Clinique Stay Matte Oil Free Makeup since I got a new brush head for my Clarisonic and it seems I have to break it out because my skin is going all oily after using it for the past few days.

Ugh!

Take a look!

Kate Somerville Complexion Correction Spot Reducing Concentrate Review

the Muse — Wed, 16 May 2012 15:27:35 +0000

Dark spots, getting a ton of coverage in the beauty world lately aren’t they?

Brands keep releasing dark spot correctors, serums, potions, and lotions but many of them do not contain the necessary ingredients to really aid in lightening darkness.

Kate Somerville Complexion Correction Spot Reducing Concentrate contains the gold standard of ingredients for lightening dark spots, 2% Hydroquinone.

The good news? It works.

The bad? You’ll have to wait around for the results.

the Muse — Wed, 16 May 2012 14:57:31 +0000

Ok, don’t kill me, I kinda sorta fell out of love with L’Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow. It’s a little too frosty for me sometimes and it looks super cakey on no matter how light handed I am.

But facts is facts, it really does have a super formula for drugstore eyeshadow.

How are you currently feeling about them?

Let’s take a look at one of the new shades released for Summer, Pink Sapphire.
