Clinique Fresh Pressed Daily Booster, Moisture Surge 72 Hour Auto-Replenishing Hydrator, and Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm Review

June 21, 2018

Clinique is another brand that I’ve been using since I was in college, and one of the first skincare lines I’ve ever committed to. Not everything from their brand was suitable for my skin, I find that the cleansers were too harsh on my skin, but I’ve had great experiences with their toner, moisturizers and cleansing balm.

I was recently sent three products from Clinique and I was so thrilled because I swear by two of the products I was sent, and the other product was one I’ve been eyeing for a while!

Bobbi Brown Crush Lip Color, Shimmer Brick & Extra Illuminating Moisture Balm Review

June 7, 2018

Stephanie Casidy

Bobbi Brown has a special place in my heart, not only for the exceptional quality of her products, but because some of my very first makeup items were from the brand. I still have my first matte eyeshadow palette ever, and her classic Petal Rose Shimmer Brick was one of my very first highlighters ever – and this was from way back when “highlighting” wasn’t even trendy yet!

So I’m pumped that I get to review some of her new releases. In this blog post, I will be reviewing the:

Bobbi Brown Crushed Lip Color in Sunset;
Bobbi Brown Extra Illuminating Moisture Balm in Pink Glow; and
Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick Compact in Rose.

Check out my thoughts on these beauties below!

Two of the things I’ve been testing out lately are the Philosophy Take A Deep Breath Oxygenating Gel Cream and the Philosophy Microdelivery Overnight Anti-Aging Peel kit. I also got to try out a couple of Illamasqua products, which I will feature in my next post!

When I got out of the shower this morning, I realized one thing. Most of my current favorite hair & skincare favorites have green packaging! It certainly inspired me to write up a favorites post, which I haven’t done in for. ever.

So here’s a brief review on each of these products:

My Skincare Routine for Congestions and Clogged Pores: Elucent Skincare Review

December 10, 2017

Stephanie Casidy

I’m so excited I can finally share about some products from my skincare routine for congestions and clogged pores!

I started weaning my son from breastfeeding shortly before he turned one in September, and boy did my skin hate me for that! I thought pregnancy acne was bad, but no one ever told me weaning acne would be far worse! To top it all off, seasonal changes was also a culprit. I had at least two new cystic acne appearing every week and my pores congested with tiny, skin-colored bumps with new ones appearing every day.

I started on the La Roche Posay Effaclar System Kit, as I mentioned in my latest Empties: Buy Or Bye? post and it tremendously helped clear up my cystic acne, but it stopped there. After all my cystic acne disappeared, I was left with tons of red spots and discoloration, and my pores were still very much congested – all throughout my T-Zone and jawline.

About 2-3 weeks ago I started using some products from the Elucent Anti Ageing range, and I was so shocked to see the results. I can’t believe the vast improvement I’ve been seeing on my skin.

Check out my before-and-after photos and reviews of the products below. I will share my whole my skincare routine for congestions and clogged pores soon!
