Charlotte Tilbury Magic Serum Crystal Elixir Is Promising To Make Me Look 93% Younger

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

Is Charlotte Tilbury Magic Serum Crystal Elixir going to make me look 93% younger? Probably not. I’m actually a big fan and supporter of Magic Eye Rescue and Magic Night Cream but I’ll readily admit I’ve called out the original Magic Cream for being bogus and promising way too much!

As they say with age comes experience….! I’ve found as the years pass I become a lot less gullible when it comes to skincare promises. There are no miracle lotions and potions. We get old, we age, we wrinkle, we get drier, we lose elasticity. There’s really not a lot of miracle, magically products that are going to cure aging. We can prevent and hold off aging though by taking good care of skin but it’s unavoidable that at some point we will visibly see signs of aging. I don’t really think Magic Serum Crystal Elixir will make me look 93% percent younger but it does have some interesting ingredients that may make my skin look a bit brighter and fresher.

I Mean I’ve Been Preparing for This My Entire Life but Milani Is Just Getting Into The Ballgame

If I’m honest I’ll admit that I’ve been collecting seasonal Bath & Body Works Hand Soaps for far too long. I have a closet worth of it. I feel like I’ve been preparing for this event all my life. I may not have toilet paper but I have plenty of hand soap.

As for Milani? They are just getting into this ballgame! Today Milani Rose Hand Sanitizer has launched and this may very well be the first beauty brand that has decided to cash in on the current situation. And hey, we needed hand sanitizer anyway right? Purell and Bath & Body Works has been off the radar for a month now. Someone had to do it and Milani decided it was them.

Milani Rose Hand Sanitizer isn’t all about getting your dollar though. As they are actually donating a hand santizer to the Downtown Women’s Center in LA for each one you buy. There is a limit on how many bottles you can purchase though! It’s 3 per a customer and I have a feeling it’ll sell out fast.

Milani Rose Hand Sanitizer is proudly made in the USA and contains 68% (Ethanol) Alcohol to meet CDC and FDA guidelines for recommended alcohol content in sanitizers. It also contains hydrating glycerin and a rose fragrance.

Each bottle is $4.99 for a 2 oz spray bottle.

Milani Rose Hand Sanitizer is available now on the brand’s website.

Are Clickbait Articles Ridiculous or Am I Overly Critical?

Have you ever been on Facebook, Twitter, or maybe even just bring up Yahoo or a news site and come across some overly ridiculous clickbait article? For example, I need the 5 minutes back from life that I used reading an article on Instyle entitled “Who Gave Dakota Johnson the Right to Look This Good Right Now?” She was wearing ratty jeans, a hoodie, and her hair was a bit messy. So, wait, remind me again how is this looking really good right now? She looked like a normal, everyday girl and guess what? That’s completely ok but why make it into something it isn’t? I seriously read this over and was shaking my head the entire time.

“Her enviable hair was perfectly tousled, and her bangs laid at the length that is almost completely unattainable for us normals.” Eh? So, when I step out of my house with a hoodie, messy hair, and jeans does that mean I’m stepping into the realms of being one of the elite versus being one of the “normals”.

Further ridiculousness from the article:
“Based on her head-to-toe look on April 12, it appears the aforementioned memo has not reached Ms. Johnson’s desk, and in fact, she appears to be operating under a completely opposite rule of dress. The actress stepped out of her Los Angeles home wearing an expected, yet somehow (in these times) attention-grabbing look”

WHO THE HELL writes this stuff? She’s operating under a completely opposite rule of dress? How did jeans and hoodie get THIS complicated?

P.S. Dakota, go home girl, why are you walking around LA without a mask ANYWAY? I hope it’s for essentials!

Are these clickbait articles ridiculous or am I overly critical?

That’s my rant today.

What’s yours?
