Perlier's Volcanic Thermo Renewing Scrub Review

Can't make it to the spa today? Bring the SPA to your home! My favorite part of a spa treatment is the pampering and how my skin feels afterwards. Perlier's Volcanic Thermal Spa Thermo Renewing Scrubis amazing and BLUE that just exfoliates your dead-skin cells away. After first use, I noticed a remarkable difference- dry, rough patches gone, especially near my feet as I've been wearing sandals forever! What I love about its natural mineral particles is that its various sizes is gentle enough for sloughing. There's been no issues with using it so far except getting great results afterwards!

September Ipsy bag

Woohoo! I am finally off the waiting list for Ipsy and I'm excited to join the popular beauty subscription service! I have to admit, I was hesitant when it came out almost a year ago but after seeing their make-up filled bags, I knew I had be a part of it. I'm psyched I get to add more beauty products to my current stash! This month, I got 5 makeup products that I can pretty much use all at once for a full makeup look.

The first sneak peek from Ipsy was a NYX single eyeshadow. I haven't tried it before but I was glad I got a nice shade in violet. What I love about my products here is that these are all full-sized goodies! If I love the product, I'll have it to use for at least 3-6 months. If not, I'll swap or give it away. They all come in a cute cosmetics bag as well.

Here's what I else I got this month from Ipsy : I also got the Cailyn Cosmetics' Tinted Lip Balm, Elizabeth Mott's Volumizing Mascara,  Starlooks Eye Pencil, and J.Cat Beauty's lipstick in a gorgeous nude. I've been loving the NYX eyeshadow to give a nice dramatic color to my lids.

September Birchbox: Heritage

I got my September Birchbox and can hardly contain my excitement. I'm getting two beauty boxes this month (Ipsy) so double the beauty fun! I'm ecstatic to use ALL 5 beauty products this month as they came in nice sample sizes (wish the COOLA sunscreen was in a tube packaging like last time though) Otherwise, one of my fave boxes so far.

The RUFFIAN Nail Polish in Delirium is a pretty Royal Purple and perfect for the Fall transition. The &Benefit Sugarbomb lip gloss is a shiny pinky nude that I can wear everyday. They have a corresponding Sugarbomb cheek powder that I want to check out now! TheJuice Beauty green apple peel I have used before so glad to have it back in my life! The Raccine eye serum is intriguing as it targets fine lines and dark circles (me!) so will be using this consistently to see how it works! It's formulated with ginseng callus extracts and antioxidants so will give their technology a shot!

Give your skin a Booost with Seventh Generation!

Seventh Generation skincare products are pretty new to me. (I've only tried the Mandarin Orange cleansing wipes which I loved!) So I'm psyched to have won via Twitter one of their new BOOSTS natural skin serum made with 100% botanical oils. I chose the Clearning boost with Tea Tree Oil to help with my oily skin. Although summer is almost over, my skin still oily so need something to keep my skin at bay. 

They recommend usage as a skin serum directly on clean skin OR adding the oil in your daily cleanser or moisturizer. I personally like adding it in my cleanser since I like to use moisturizin serum during the day. However at night, I prefer to use this alone. My skin has experienced fewer bumps and whiteheads this week so I'm pleased with the results so far. Hoping this trend will continue!! :)
