AHAVA Mineral Hand Cream Review

AHAVA’s naturally rejuvenating skincare products are formulated with the finest skin-friendly ingredients that the Dead Sea has to offer

AHAVA Mineral Hand Cream is a luxuriously rich cream.

I have used many different hand creams and this is a bit different.

This hand cream is thick and when I  started to rub it into my skin I thought it wasn't going to absorb and  that it was going to be greasy. 

That was not the case. As I was rubbing it I noticed the heat from my hands was heating the cream and it became lighter with a velvety smoothness and my skin absorbed it. My hands felt so much softer with less dry skin. 

This has  a strong aromatic green plum and sandalwood scent  that I really like. 

Its approved for sensitive skin, allergy tested and is Paraben free.

It's formulated with the finest skin friendly ingredients that the Dead Sea has to offer.

I love the packaging. Its so simple yet eye appealing with the water.

I would recommend this product. 

I received this free product from BeautyStat for review.

Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer Review

I was hand-picked for the Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer crowdkit. I was excited because I really like Aveeno products they work great and there is something for everyone.

I did noticed after using the Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer for a few days that my skin was looking brighter and fresh.

 This product does claim to improve brown spots and blotchiness but I didn't see this while I was using the product. I didn't have the chance to try this for the four weeks so the claim may be true.

It has a strong yet pleasant scent which I liked but I would  prefer it not to be that strong. 

I like that it is thick rich but not greasy and contains SPF+30.

I’m a member of the Crowdtap Aveeno® rewards program, and Aveeno® sent me a samples of its POSITIVELY RADIANT® DAILY MOISTURIZER BROAD SPECTRUM SPF30 to review.

Garnier Clean + Balancing Daily Exfoliator Review

I don't remember who had sent me this free sample of Garnier clean + Balancing Daily Exfoliator but I'm really glad they did.

 I used this sample after one of my Insanity workouts and if you have ever done this exercise program you know you sweat a lot! I like that the daily exfoliator deep cleaned my skin without being rough. It doesn't have a strong perfume scent which I like. It did leave my skin soft and smooth not dry, tight or red like other exfoliators tend to do sometimes.

 This product is oil free gentle to skin and it contains grapefruit & pomegranate.

This in my own opinion and was a free sample. I was not compensated. 

Paula's Choice Clear Acne Kit Review

My son took the two-week trial using Paula's Choice Clear Acne Regular Strength Kit. Its a skin care routine kit that included three products.

STEP 1

The first step was to use the Paula's Choice Pore Normalizing Cleanser day and night this cleans your skin of all dead skin cells and dissolves oil that can clog your pores. My son's skin is a bit oily and he tends to have break outs a lot. This does a great job of cleaning his skin.

You just splash your face with water take a small amount of cleanser and begin to face your face be sure not to get it into your eyes then rinse.

Step 1 Cleanser

STEP 2

Using day and night Paula's Choice Anti-Redness Exfoliating Solution. This helps to reduce redness, kills bacteria and exfoliates your skin. You just take a small amount and rub into your skin and you don't rinse.

My son's acne especially around his hairline had a  lot of redness. Being in sports it made it worst all the sweat would run down his face.

Step 2 Anti-Redness Exfoliating Solution

STEP 3

This is the last step in the kit. Paula's Choice Daily Skin Clearing Treatment. This treatment visibly reduces red marks, immediately reduces blemishes and leaves a  matte finish that can't be seen on skin. You use this take a small amount and rubbed it into affect areas and leave on you don't rinse. You may use this one to three times daily.

Step 3 Skin Clearing Treatment

Before                                 After

As you can see in his before picture around his nose area and forehead his has a lot of acne and redness.

I have to tell you this was a tough two-week trial because with most young  teenage boys they don't like to wash and especially not everyday. I had to always remind him day and night for the first week to use these products. What surprised me was the second week he didn't need to be told because he really liked that it was an easy routine and the redness from his acne started to disappear and his skin was slowly looking really good. These products didn't harm or irritate his skin in the least nor did they dry out his skin like some acne skin products do.
 The after picture he is a happier teen and showing why by holding up his Paula's Choice Clear Acne Kit.

Meaningful Beauty's Creme de Serum Review

I was so happy to be selected to try Meaningful Beauty's Creme de Serum. I have not heard anything about this product until I was selected. 

After I received my free sample (0.5 fl oz)  I was eager to test this out! The Creme de serum is the ultimate youth enhancing serum that addresses the past, present and future of your skin. It has a triple blend of powerful anti-aging ingredients to help restore more youthful looking skin.

I believe Cindy Crawdford's skin looks amazing. 

You only need to use this once a day so I usually use it during my morning routine after washing my face I apply a small amount of serum and use my finger tips to blend it into my skin. It blends easily and  has a light scent which is what I prefer in any creme I apply to my face. I have used it everyday for a week and it has left my skin looking a bit more radiant also softer to the touch. I give  Meaningful Beauty's Creme de Serum two thumbs up.

Eclos "Dare To Be Bare" 2 Week Challenge Review

Hello, I took the "Dare To Be Bare" 2 week challenge through a Klout Perk I got free.
 I received  three Freeman Eclos products to use during this challenge.

 Let me tell you a little about this product.
"The Eclos uses Apple Stem Cell technology from a rare swiss apple that has been harvested since the 1800's . They say this apple helps maintain longevity in both life and nutrient value and helps control the sign of aging skin".

During this 2 week challenge this was my routine..
I started with the Eclos am + pm skin prep cleaner I used this twice daily in the morning before I did my daily makeup routine and in the evening to take off my makeup. I really love this cleaner it took off all my makeup without leaving my skin over dry or tight. I really like the container that this prep cleaner comes in. It so easy to pump the prep cleaner into your hands as oppose to trying to open a flip cap with wet hands.

Next I applied the Eclos am + pm Moisture Therapy Regenerative Cream again twice daily. This cream is a rich medium weight moisturizer that helps smooth and brighten your skin and that's exactly what it does. My face looks really fresh and brighter. It has a great scent and I do believe that it also reduced the appearance of my fine line wrinkles. I'm super happy about that! We all want to fight the signs of aging.

Lastly I used the Eclos Daily Hydra Primer SPF 30 only in the morning before applying my makeup. This is actually a great Primer to use. This Primer helped to even out my skin tone and minimized my fine lines. My makeup looked so flawless when I used this Hydra Primer daily.I haven't used any other primer more then I have this.

This blended into my skin beautifully.

I'm happy that I was given this opportunity to take this "Dare To Be Bare" 2 week challenge.

 Here is my after picture I'm excited to tell you that my skin hasn't looked this great in a long time. Sorry I don't have the before pictures but you can find them on my Instagram page by clicking here pbkup

Sia Botanics Desert Aloe & Jojoba Face Cream Review

I was invited to review Sia Botanics Desert Aloe & Jojoba Face Cream through Swaggable which is a site that gives you the chance to experience the product and write your review online.

The  Desert Aloe & Jojoba Face Cream is a powerful combination of desert botanicals that nourishes dry and parched skin at the cellular level.

 My skin at this time of year isn't dry but I do tend to get dry skin with the change of seasons. However I have used it three times already and I like the creaminess. It goes onto my skin without that heavy lotion feeling and it isn't greasy which I'm surprised by because when I squeezed some of the cream out it had a greasy oily look to it.

This is the picture of me after I have applied the  Desert Aloe & Jojoba Face Cream as you can see there isn't a greasy or shiny look to my skin.

The key ingredients are Jojoba, vitamin E, evening primrose and Aloe Vera. If you want to know more about Sia Botanics Desert Aloe & Jojoba Face Cream <- click here
