Drugstore Product Of The Week!

It is very rare that I buy a product like this, I am always looking for products that offer the maximum amount of antioxidants and benefits to the skin. Yet this moisturizer is really mundane, it offers absolutely no  antioxidants or promises of perfecting your skin. So why do I love it? well it doesnt break me out! That my friends is a pretty big deal to me right now and just enough for me to fall in love. Its the perfect moisturizer to for my sometimes normal, sometimes oily skin. It wears beautifully under my makeup and it DOESNT CLOG MY PORES!!!! I bought this originally to carry on my makeup kit, but after countless of money spent on moisturizers I decided to try it on myself, I wear this only in the day time under my favorite sunscreen. Good Luck Xxx

Es muy raro que compre un producto como este, siempre estoy buscando productos que ofrecen la máxima cantidad de antioxidantes y beneficios para la piel. Sin embargo es realmente esta crema no hace nada mas que hidratar, ofrece absolutamente nada de antioxidantes ni promesas de perfeccionar tu piel. Así que ¿por qué me encanta? Bueno no me provoca acné! Que mis amigos es muy gran cosa para mí y lo suficiente como para que me enamorará perdidamente. Es la perfecta crema hidratante para mi piel normal a veces, a veces grasosa. Lleva maravillosamente bajo mi maquillaje y no obstruir mis poros!!! Compré esto originalmente a llevar en mi kit de maquillaje, pero después de incontables de dinero gastado en cremas hidratantes decidió probar en mí mismo, me pongo esto sólo durante el día bajo mi protección solar favorito. Buena suerte Xxx

Tried And Tested: Lush Catastrophe Cosmetic Mask!

I went in to LUSH to restock on some bath bombs and body creams, of course I started talking to the sales associates and whining about how badly I've been breaking out when she recommended I try catastrophe mask. After I read the front and saw that one of the ingredients were blueberries I was sold, blueberries are rich in antioxidants and are great to eat and also in skincare so I thought this has to be good!

Sorry For The Blurriness :(

The sales associates explained to me that I should wash my face before applying this and to keep on my face for 10 minutes. This is a fresh mask so it has to be kept refrigerated.

Voila! After removing the mask. 

My first impression was really how thick it looked and actually is, so that made it a tad bit uncomfortable to apply especially over the already sensitive broken out areas. I have to say that my face did burn a little while the mask was on but as soon as I removed it my face felt cleaner, softer and looked calmer thanks to the calamine, and chamomile!

The main reason I will not be buying this mask again is that it has fragrance, now this might be what makes my face burn or something else is definitely causing this. But I really don't understand the need for fragrance especially when the mask is supposed to be for acne prone skin AKA as sensitive skin.

 I did finish the whole pot to give it a fair try and see how my skin would react. I did not notice any difference in my breakouts, I am not going to blame this mask directly as I am currently in esthetics school but if anything I broke out even more. But remember that all skins are different and what doesn't work for me might do wonders for you! Good Luck Xxx
