Beauty Product Reviews

Quick pick me up

At first I was intimidated because I’ve only ever used products that are already mixed and ready for use. Honestly though it’s so easy to mix and get to the right consistency. It foams so nicely! I especially like the thicker foam consistency so I use less water, but if you’d like a more loose foam then use more water. Either way it works perfectly. I feel zero irritation and there’s no funky smell to it whether I mix with water or a toner. After cleansing my skin it looks super bright and my redness is gone. That has never happened before so I was quite shocked at how my face wasn’t all red and blotchy. That’s probably because it’s infused with calamine which helps to soothe and calm skin while the tiny exfoliants do their job. It’s funny because a few days after using this my husband says “you should stop using whatever you’re using because it’s making your skin pale” lOl!!! That’s all the reason to keep using it because it’s getting rid of the dead skin cells that dulls my skin and is actually brightening it up. So thank you so much for sending this over!!!! I’ve definitely changed my mind when it comes to powdered skincare. I’m no longer intimidated. Please excuse my creepy smile in the photo ⁣

Shine bright

I’ve used this every day and every night since I received it. During my routine this was the first thing I used after cleansing. I applied a pea size amount and let it absorb into my skin, which it did quickly. There’s absolutely zero irritation or tacky feeling. My skin doesn’t dry out either. The only reaction I’ve had is less prominent pores, brighter and smoother skin. I’m very impressed with this and I think any and everyone should try it.

Nourishing & Hydrating

It’s been such a pleasure testing out this Silicone-Free Priming Moisturizer from one of my favorite brands: GOOD MOLECULES. If the silicone-free aspect caught your attention, it should. Science claims silicone doesn’t break the skin out, but after much research and listening to customers Good Molecules came to the conclusion that Silicone DOES contribute to breakouts in some humans. So they developed this formula which is full of nurturing ingredients that nourish the skin while also prepping it for makeup application! **This hydrating primer really helps to seal my foundation without causing any cakey or oiliness. It helped to evenly distribute my foundation which you’ll see in the photo I included. This has even helped my matte foundation look less like a blanket of desert sand on my skin, lOl. It also gave my foundation longevity! My foundation lasted for more than 8 hours thanksgiving day! NO touch ups and I still looked presentable :)

Excited to try this

I’ve always noticed a darkness around the contour of my eyes so when I read what this is supposed to do I was excited. For me I need to use this continually or it won’t lighten the darkness. I’ve also noticed that if I don’t use some sort of soothing agent my skin will get irritated. I’m not bothered by that because that’s to be expected. I love that this combats my insecurities and it’s helped me go without makeup more often!

A glycolic acid lovers dream!

This bottle of GA is HUGE!!! I’ve been known to pile on the GA and this is heaven sent! I absolutely love the cleaning effect it has on my pores— dissolving all the dirt and grime that accumulates throughout the day. It smoothed my texture and helps keep my skin bright and tight. I haven’t noticed a redness after use which I love and this is the only non serum GA I’ve ever used. I like to pour it into my hands and slap my face! Very effective. I love THE ORDINARY products.

Brighten my day

Loving this toner! I haven’t used many toners, but I definitely use this one. I can apply it during the day without it causing a redness. A lot of times when I HAVE used a toner it turned me red so I strayed from it. That doesn’t happen with this one, only a brightness. It absorbs quickly and doesn’t have a weird smell. I haven’t noticed any type of tingling and sometimes you think ‘oh it’s not tingling so it’s not working.’ It’s definitely working because it has brightened my complexion and I see less redness now and my circles aren’t as dark. I love this and when I run out I DEFINITELY need more!

Such a powerful formula

I always thought I’d be stuck with large pores forever. I hated applying foundation because I could see the depth of my pores so bad. Luckily I’ve been using these for a few weeks and have gained INSTANT gratification. My pores are almost invisible and the once bumpy, crater like texture has been erased with a more smooth surface. I definitely recommend using this if you want to tame your pores.

RIP THE DIRTY FROM MY SKIN!

I absolutely LOVE Glycolic Acid so I’m super hip to trying it from different brands and different forms. I am really enjoying what this has done for my skin. I love the thickness of the serum but love even more how it quickly absorbs into my pores and makes way for other serums to work their magic. I can totally tell a difference in my skin sense using this exfoliator. I definitely recommend if you’re looking for something to transform your skin.

Best Balm Ever

The first time I received this was in a beauty Lish order. It was sample sized, but left a HUGE impact on me. I was in absolute love! Lucky for me I received a large size because Beauty Lish and Good Molecules were kind enough to gift it to me. First off, I’ve used a lot of balms and this is by far the best!! It’s instant gratification because it removes makeup like a champ. I have zero leftover mascara or eyeliner after using it. I don’t have to SCRUB my eyes or face to remove excess makeup. I just gently rub and viola, clean skin after rinsing. The fragrance isn’t overwhelming or irritating at all. It does blur my vision a bit but after rinsing my eyes it goes away unlike other balms who have allowed the the blurriness to linger. I also love that I can use this as a soothing cleanser when I’ve used a lot of AHA/BHA and need something gentle on my skin. I definitely recommend!

Photoshop no more

I received these items for review purposes from BeautyLish and Good Molecules. I’m so glad I did because I’ve basically battled enlarged pores my entire life so I was so excited to incorporate these into my daily routine. I’ve noticed since using these two products together it’s definitely made my pores look smaller. There’s an instant blurring effect after use! It absorbs super fast and when I wake up the next morning my skin is extra bright and smooth! I’ve only been using this for a week and I feel like my skin is the best it’s ever been! There was no irritation upon application so even those with sensitive skin can use it. Included is a photo of my skin the day after using these products from Good Molecules.
