Karuna: Brightening Mask Review

 
I select the Brightening mask by Karuna for my April BeautyARMY Kit. This all-natural fiber cloth is made from wood pulp which holds more moisture so it can deliver a powerhouse dose of paraben-free ingredients. Ingredients like Grapefruit Seed Extract, which deflects environmental toxins from the skin.  

Following the directions I open the package and my first observation is: This mask is covered with lots of serum and is very wet. Folded, it wasn't as tricky to open as I was portraying, I was afraid that I would rip it apart. Fortunately, it is not that delicate.

Shea Terra Organics: My Third Haul

It's no secret that I love Shea Terra Organics. I ran out of my Orange Blossom Water and wanted to purchase a second jar and since @StephsBeautyYT gifted me a $40voucher from SpaRahRah, I knew I would have to add something else to my cart. Quickly I found the Argan Rosemary Cleansing Oil. I am all about oil right now, as I have switched my skincare to 100% non-greenwashed Natural products. Totaling $40 exactly, I only had to pay for shipping. Which I paid for using the $10 Visa provided to me from @Klout and @Bing! BAZING!

Egyptian Magic: Skin Cream Review

"This miraculous all-purpose formula will amaze you."  Has it ever!! I have been singing the praises of this multipurpose magic cream since the samples first arrived in our office.

It comes out of the packette as a thick a balm since the natural ingrediants can turn to a semi-state in colder environments. Follow the directions and emulsify it into an oil-like consistency. If you do not do this, you will find it too think to properly apply. I put a small amount of Egyptian Magic on my fingertips and rub it between my left and right hand, creating friction so my skin fully absorbs the oil.

This magical cream can be used as a night moisturizer, eye cream, hair defrizzer and split-end mender. Try it as a lip balm, healing cuticle conditioner as well as a treatment for conditions like eczema, psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.  Having antibacterial properties and containing no toxins, it a perfect stretch mark prevention cream for use during pregnancy. May also be used to soothe redness, fade scars, and even heal blemishes.

LA Fresh: Oil-Free Face Cleansing Wipe Review

This was a fabulous wipe to have when I went to Pasadena for iMATS LA. I found it perfect for travel as I did not have to bring liquid makeup remover; eliminating the possibility of something spilling in my suitcase/makeup bag.

Opening to 5" x 4" I used this premoistened wipe as a makeup remover, following with my facial cleanser. It removed all of my eye makeup as well as my CoverFX facial makeup allowing my cleanser to do it's job and clean my skin.

Acquired in my April BeautyARMY Kit, which you can see here, this oil-free face cleanser is created with natural ingredients that are cruelty free.

SunFX: Body Shimmer Review

This generous sample is actually part of a 4pc SunFX Starter Kit; Body Shimmer, Summer's Secret, Tan Extender and Body Wash.

An unexpected surprise is this is a silver toned shimmer, perfect for those of us with pale limbs. It provides a very light sheen with rich hydration even though the product is thin. It sinks in quickly without any greasy residue and it has the most amazing smell!! It's very lightly scented like the beach.

Weleda: Iris Hydrating Facial Lotion Review

Pronounced: va•LAY•da

Designed for oily to combination skins, I chose Iris Hydrating Facial Lotion as part of my February BeautyARMY Kit. Even though this is my first time trying a Weleda product, I decided to give it a test while attending iMATS LA. The sample size was appropriate for travel and the provided amount allowed me to use it the entire time I was in Pasadena.

I usually moisturize with pure oil so I admit I was a bit skeptical about this lotion and whether it would leave a greasy residue on my face but thankfully, it did not. It absorbed quickly and completely and I felt comfortable all day.
