Hydroxatone Anti-Aging BB Cream Review

Have you jumped on the BB-cream bandwagon yet? I've been wearing the Hydroxatone Anti-Aging BB Cream with SPF 40 daily and I've been loving it. My face makeup routine has been pretty light, using only concealer on areas where I need it. (Think: undereyes and some dark spots) However, ever since I got this through the iFabbo Shop, I've been using this daily! It's incredibly easy to use! This light, tinted moisturizer evens my skin tone and makes my skin look dewy. I'm also getting the sun protection that I need to prevent sunspots & wrinkles!

Own Skin Health Firming Silk Concentrate Review

@ownskinhealth#OwnAtUlta 

Through iFabbo's shop, I was able to test Own's Skin Health Firming Skin Concentrate. This anti-aging serum is formulated to help decrease the appearance of wrinkles over an 8 week span and help moisturize your skin. Three things that are focused are firmness, evenness of skin tone and softness. I've been using the concentrate for almost two weeks now and definitely feel an improvement. Skin is feeling smooth and looking better! Can't wait to see the results in the next couple of weeks! :)

AVEENO POSITIVELY RADIANT Intensive Night Cream review

Through Influenster, I participated in their #RadiantWithAVEENO program and tested out the NEW Aveeno Positively Radiant Intensive Night Cream. I haven't used the Aveeno product line lately and I was curious to try it out. Besides, who didn't want to be positively radiant, right? The smooth emollient night cream absorbs in your skin leaves it feeling incredibly soft and fragrant. I was pleasantly surprised that with a thin layer was all I really needed. Moisturizing is key to every facial routine and I love waking up to hydrated skin. Tips on increasing absorption? Exfoliate lightly to ensure clean pores! I use textured cotton pads to cleanse my skin and apply all products with clean hands.

I'm psyched about the Aveeno products now and can't wait to check out the others! GET #RadiantWithAVEENO!

With my new Positively Radiant night cream, I'll be dreaming of meeting the cast of my favorite show Suits! :) What will you be dreaming of?

April Birchbox with Women's Health

April's Birchbox was a steal! It came with a subscription to Women's Health magazine, worth $10 so already the box was well with it! Also got some amazing samples, such as Caudalie's Divine Oil, superGoop eye cream and Ruby Wing nailpolish. I also got some munchies from Hail Merry with their chocolate coconut macaroons. I'm still on the fence about the hair product though, since my hair routine is pretty simple.
Looking forward to next month's Birchbox !!

Lilly Brush Classic Red Lilly Brush

@SaveOurSweaters #LillyBrushIfabbo 

Save your sweaters! Through iFabbo's shop, I got to try out this nifty tool to lose the pills off my worn sweaters. Now that I'm in warmer weather and have only resorted to light sweaters only for late nights, I still have some old ones with sad pills. Usually I pluck them off, but with the Lilly Brush, I was able to have them removed after a few quick swipes.

These are great to have in handy and make great gifts as well! Thanks to iFabbo for introducing me to @SaveOurSweaters!

Celebrate Spring with a FRAAS scarf

Spring is officially here! It's actually been Spring for a while but the weather has been a tad bit colder than expected for those in the northeast.. But nevermind that, what better way to shout Spring than with a gorgeous scarf? The pretty scarves are from the FRAAS Mystical Coast line, especially the Coral one my absolute favorite! These two will pop and brighten your outfits and would go perfectly with a LBD (little black dress) or your comfortable white tee's. Its light, viscose material is perfect for the day and also at night. They're light, flowy and great to put in your purse as well, just in case it gets a bit chilly!

Want one in your wardrobe? Call the company directly at 212-575-0191 to order yours today!

Birchbox (February & March)

I missed my February Birchbox post so I decided to combine it with my March Birchbox post. If you're new to my site, Birchbox is a beauty  discovery service on a monthly subscription basis. Samples are provided for $10/month on items they recommend. :)

These two past boxes have been okay for me, which usually means that there will be good things coming up for the Spring. I usually get an okay one for a month or two and then something spectacular.

For February, I got these items:
* Beauty Protector's Protector & Detangle spray
* Color Club's Nail polish in Wild Cactus
* Dr. Jart+ BB Beauty Balm
* Juicy Couture's Couture La La perfume - wonderful scent
* Bonus item: Ghiradelli chocolate square which I ate :) 

For March, I was excited to see that I got MAKE makeup, but the eyeshadow and makeup primer sample sizes were much smaller than I anticipated. I did really like the Oscar Blandi hair lift mousse and Whish shaving cream in an exclusive scent of Blueberry. The emory board from Madewell for Birchbox is cute and floral so I was excited to see these iems. 

Next month's Birchbox is curated with Women's Health magazine so absolutely excited to see what products will be in my box. Haven't joined yet? Check out Birchbox today!
