Vitamin C Serum Promo by Day by Day Beauty







*Short Review time!!!
Sorry guys its getting really late and my kiddos are my alarm clock in the morning!*

Oh no!!! apparently I got two of the same type of product and didn't realize. I guess I glanced at the description of it and thought it was different than the other one I got! I will not be doing any comparing in this post... I just feel a little silly that I only realized the mistake AFTER I received them in the mail!

Last time I gave a bunch of history about how I got my scars from the dog attack... this time I am going to skip all of that and go straight to the product!

This product is super easy to use all you gotta do is pump out a couple small squirts of the serum and its enough for your whole face! A little goes a long way and this 1 oz bottle is going to last me for a LONG time!

Here are the directions from the bottle

Directions
Simply apply a small amount of Day By Day Vitamin C Serum with fingertips to freshly cleansed face, neck and decolletage areas while avoiding direct contact with eyes. Give your skin a few minutes to absorb all the natural goodness before applying moisturizer.

There are many reasons why I chose this product. One of the reason being that I needed a product to help hydrate my skin. I have combination skin but when my skin gets dry, it gets REALLY dry. Here are a few more reasons that are listed on Day by Day Beauty's Amazon listing.

Here are 5 Reasons You're Going to LOVE our Vitamin C Serum:
- It nourishes your skin with antioxidants and rich, hydrating ingredients!
- Reduces fine lines and wrinkles!
- Every bottle is organic and eco-friendly!
- Sensitive skin? This is what you've been looking for!


Not only do I have very sensitive skin and occasionally extremely dry skin, but I also have scarring! I could definitely tell a difference in my skin after using this product. I currently am using it every time I get out of the shower.

Buy it here!

Foxbrim Hyaluronic Acid Serum









When I was 12 weeks pregnant with my son I was attacked by a dog. I had over 50 stitches in my face... it was BAD! Ever since the accident happened I have been SUPER self conscious  the scars. Its on my face and its not like I can really hide it.  My doctor recommended using Vitamin E oil, which I did for quite some time. Then I got quite busy after I had my son September 14, 2012 and even more busy once I had my daughter May 30, 2014.


Before the attack


Soon after (still pink and irritated)

After some more healing time
(you cant really tell but my lip on the right side is puffier than the other side)





 Like I said before, I am very self conscious about the scarring. I have even had moments happen that made me want to cry! For example, not too long after the accident happened I was at the Clearwater Marine Aquariam. I was actually trying to look in to the tank to see Winter and had to ask a couple young girls to make some room so I could see. As I was looking into the tank one of the girls got almost inches away from my face staring at me! All I could think to do was snap at her a little bit and say "I was bitten by a dog!" I was devastated that it was THAT noticeable! Even though it has been over 2 years after the attack I feel its still beneficial to put product on my scars. Though, I do admit most the time I still forget to use the product.

 One reason why I liked this product because it has a combination of Vitamin C and Vitamin E. There are also other great ingredients in this product. Straight from their amazon listing, "this Serum Includes Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, MSM, Jojoba Oil AND Green Tea" also stated in the listing is "Safe For ALL Skin Types. Unique and Proven Formulation Ensures Even Sensitive Skin Can Glow Again!" Another thing that really made me want to try this product out!

Not only do I have the scarring but I have noticed my skin has changed through out the two pregnancies. Ive used this product for about a week or so and I can definitely notice my skin is smoother and more even tone. I also like the fact that my scars are getting a little bit of Vitamin E oil as well!

I definitely recommend using this product!

Deep Cleansing Facial Oil & Organic Rosehip Oil











So, I am really beginning to enjoy pampering myself! I never really go out and shop for myself unless I have a gift card, can use coupons, or its on sale/clearance. I just recently bought a facial scrub, but held off using it so I could use this first!

Just by reading the label I already knew I would love using this product! It has ingredients like Jojoba Oil , Olive Oil and Pink Grapefruit Essential Oil. I also liked how easy it is to use!  The directions are: Apply InstaNatural's Dee Cleansing Facial Oil to a washcloth, pad or cotton ball. Wipe gently onto face to remove makeup and impurities. Rinse off with warm water and pat dry with a clean cloth. I am a mom of two.. my son is 2 and my daughter is almost 4 months. It is very helpful to have products that are easy to use like this one!

When I used the product for the first time I used one of my little ones baby wash cloth. A little bit of this product goes a long way! I wiped down my face with the oil, which was sort of odd at first. I am so used to having a product that either lathers or has a gritty exfoliating texture. Next, I followed the directions and rinsed with warm water. After I was done washing my face, my face felt so clean!  It did not leave my face feel too dry or too oily!

The second time I washed my face with this product I decided to use a cotton ball. I THOUGHT my face was not that dirty. Obviously I was wrong! Below is a picture showing how filthy my face was! YUCK!!!
Left: cotton ball i used to wipe my face down
Right: clean cotton ball 
I have not used this product as a make up remover yet. I have not had time to even put make up on!
I am hoping to  have a date night with my hubbie soon. Then I will get all beautified and after the date I will be able to use it as a make up remover. One of my blogger friends told me it was a REALLY good make up remover, so I am eager to see how it works with removing my make up.

I also received InstaNatural's Rosehip oil

Here are a few pieces of information from their Amazon listing :-ONLY ONE INGREDIENT: 100% Pure Certified Organic Rosehip Seed Oil | NO FILLERS: No Unneeded Fillers and Dilutions - Paraben, Alcohol, and Fragrance Free. Bottled in the USA In Our Advanced FDA Certified Facility-Get YOUTHFUL- RADIANT COMPLEXION: Dry skin will be instantly replenished and revitalized. Fine Lines are visibly reduced and skin is immediately brighter and more radiant-OTHER BENEFITS: Also helps diminish the appearance of scars & stretch marks. Also great for sun spots, age spots, brittle nails, damaged hair & more!

I really liked the fact it helps with scars and stretch marks. I have MANY stretch marks from my two pregnancies. After using this product for a while I noticed that the part of the stretch marks from my first pregnancy, which had more time to heal, started to fade even more. I just had my daughter 4 months ago and my stretch marks expanded with that pregnancy. I noticed the areas that were red and angry looking had started to heal and settle down slowly turning into the silvery color and less noticeable. I really love this product you only have to use a little bit and you cant beat the giant 4 oz bottle you get! This stuff will last me forever!


InstaNatural also has many other products, which are awesome!
Keep an eye out ... I will be doing reviews on more of their products soon!

100% Natural Konjac Facial Sponge with Activated Bamboo Charcoal by PureSol



Short review time!! (not that this product needs a long review anyways... its an awesome product!)

Well here is my second blog about a Konjac facial sponge...I just love these things!
I love the fact they are all natural and biodegradable!!!!





I love that using this type of sponge is super easy! You can use it with out facial wash and if you do use your facial wash... you only have to use a tiny bit!




I am a mom of two my oldest is 2 and  my youngest will be 4 months at the end of this month. A lot of the times I have to jump in and take a super fast shower. I like how it is so easy to just get this wet, scrub my face, squeeze out the water, and hang it up on the suction hook it came with.




I dont have to worry about fumbling with face wash and possibly getting soap in my eyes (baby crying in background being in a "I want mommy" mood, yes I have gotten soap in my eyes and its NOT FUN)
Even though I am not using a facial wash or soap to wash my face, i feel super clean every time i use this! I LOVE IT!

All in all, I really like its size, the fact its nature friendly (biodegradable) and how it just so simple to use. I would definitely recommend this product!

Natural Facial Moisturizer - Deep Skin Hydration that Lasts All Day - with Dead Sea Minerals - Dermatologist Tested & Approved

 







I feel like a broken record BUT... like I said i normally do not get a lot of pamper me items... I have two kids under 2 most my money and attention go to them! ( i would not have it any other way!)


After I received this product in the mail I immediately tried it out!
I did my normal shower routine hair , body , then, washed my face with my Konjac sponge and Clinique cream scrub (I LOVE Konjac sponges... I have THREE different kinds!)
Once out and dried I used a dab of this to put on my face... A little goes a loooooooong way!!! This container will last me a long time. I was also really happy that its mild enough for my sensitive skin.



Which makes sense because the product description of the product is:

- Quenches your skin's thirst with natural, deep hydration that lasts all day giving you a more radiant complexion.
- HYPOALLERGENIC. DERMATOLOGIST TESTED & APPROVED.
- Contains an active complex of Dead Sea Minerals for natural moisture balance.
- It continues working throughout the day by improving your skin's ability to regain it's natural moisture and better retain it's moisture levels. People will wonder why your skin has than new, natural "glow".Moisturize and protect your skin with Adovia's quick absorbing and non-greasy, daytime moisturizer.

I would say I completely agree with the description and I would definitely recommend this product!

Oleavine 100% Plant Based Konjac Sponge infused with Activated Charcoal.




Let me give you a little background on my shower routine first. I usually just use whatever shampoo or conditioner I can get my hands on for free or super cheap. I love love love to coupon! So buying luxury stuff to maintain beauty i never really get! I got this Sponge through Tomoson a website you get free products in exchange for an honest review on amazon, a tweet on twitter, post to your blog, post to facebook, a post to instagram and some more things if you have the account!

At first when i got the product it did not look like much.. looked like a blackish gray sponge... whats so special about this?? I thought... First i read the packaging ... which says you can use a non foaming facial wash with the sponge. So i decided to do half my face with my Clinique 7 day scrub cream and half with out.

Oh my goodness! Once you get the sponge wet it plumps up and is ready to use. I applied my Clinique scrub cream to half my face then scrubbed with the sponge. I then rinsed my face so none of the cream wash got on the other side and then proceeded to wash my face with the sponge again. I cant believe how CLEAN my face felt! I prefer to use it along with my cream wash but the side i used with out the was felt extremely clean as well!

I have now added this sponge to my shower routine. I would definitely recommend buying this product! Its amazing!

buy on amazon!
