If you are like me and suffer from mild rosacea and/or skin tone difference on your face you understand the frustration of trying to make your skin look even. You may have to use different color foundations, which can be costly, or you just try to blend blend blend. Well recently my SO's brother's girlfriend brought me a ton of samples, she is an esthetician at Estee Lauder. One of the first things I decided to try to use was the Skin tone correcting serum by Dr. Andrew Weil for Origins. A normal size bottle will run you about $45-$65 and looks like this:

 

I used the .05 oz sample which lasted me about 3 days (morning and night) all over my face. I wish I had taken a before and after because I am so amazed with the results. No more red checks, no more splotches on my face, my skin is already all the same tone. It is AMAZING, I sent her a text and said "if you get anymore of the skin tone correcting serum samples send them my way I'm OBSESSED". That is truly the word Obsessed, this product is so amazing and it helps someone like me who had amazing skin until pregnancy, start to feel more confident. If I go outside now without foundation/powder I do not feel self conscience about the different skin tones on my face and whether people notice or not. My skin and my hair were always something I could be proud of and after getting pregnant with my son it was something I struggled with. 

If you have skin problems I would definitely recommend checking out this line, while It might cost you a little more it is great quality and a little definitely goes a long way. 

You my brown eyed girl

Loving these colors for brown eyes! I love purple and pink because they bring out the bright pigments in your eye. The white helps open the eye up to help you look more awake and to give more definition to your eye brow!

Fresh Face Friday

So while my son is refusing to go to sleep, I decided I will update you on my recent trial of Olay Fresh Effects courtesy of my Influenster Vox Box!

I have been trying so hard lately to get into a good face washing routine, especially since summer is coming up. However, I've been having such a hard time finding a product I like, I've tried everything from brands such as Lush to Target's generic brand. So, I was pretty happy to find this in my vox box. The little tool you see on the right is the actually massaging cleanser- and it vibrates REALLY strong, but it feels great on your face. It's very simple and it left my face feeling SO SO SO soft the next day, I am so impressed. This is by far my favorite product out of my Vox Box so far, it's one I will be repurchasing when I am done.

Love love love this, thank you Olay and Influenster.
