Dear Neutrogena!

 Dear Neutrogena,

Lately I have been having trouble keeping my skin moisturized unless I use Vaseline! (It's too hot & heavy for this southern summer heat.)

 Not only do I have super dry skin, but it also has the nerve to be all SENSATIVE & stuff! I've used several creams, serums, and gels. My skin seems to really enjoy the "gel like" products. 

It's important that you cater to your OWN skin needs! I know that my skin is dry, so I look for products that promotes HYDRATION! The Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid Water Gel is designed for normal to oily skin. The packaging didn't say a thing about dry skin! Anything that claimed to leave skin "refreshed and dewy" & had "water gel" in the title, not to mention all the goodness hyaluronic acid does, had to be good for dry skin...right? 

Absolutely! This moisturizer feels amazing when applied, it almost feels like you dipped your face in water. The product does dry down after it has absorbed, leaving the skin feeling RESTORED. This moisturizer is PERFECT for the summer, as it states, it is lightweight! It works very well under make-up

"...The friend that I never knew my skin needed"

"Love the skin you're in". -OLAY

 The OLAY Renewing Exfoliating Cleanser works incredibly well on dry skin! If you have sensitive skin, this product is a MUST HAVE. The cleanser's exfoliation system gently removes dry skin without leaving the face red from irritation! I can only use fragrance-free products on my face, many Brands claim that a product is scent free, but this one truly is. After the cleanser is rinsed away, the skin is left feeling soft & moisturized. The Olay cleanser contains Retinol which aides in acne treatment, anti-aging, & also evens the skin tone.

...For uneven, Textured skin.

Hey y'all!

I've used this product for the past month! So far, I'm impressed! It has left my skin feeling refreshed! It can be so frustrated searching for products that actually work & FRAGRANCE-FREE. My skin gets super dry in the winter months; I'm always looking for skin care products that are healing. I mostly use exfoliating product 2-3 times a week. The OLAY exfoliator is gentle enough for me to add it to my daily skin care routine. I can notice if I skip a day! This was the friend that I never knew my skin needed!   

Get The GOLDEN GLOW! With the VASELINE cocoa RADIANT Vitalizing Body Oil

 Winter Skincare must-haves! 

This BRAND is as old as time & has proven to be trusted! My skin has been extremely dry lately. I've tried a few oils before trying this product! The VASELINE Intensive Care cocoa radiant VITALIZING BODY OIL has been in my daily skin care routine since I discovered it! This product is a gel like consistency that leaves skin visibly moisturized and adds a healthy glow. This BODY GEL OIL is a perfect prep for your after-bath routine. As I stated, my skin has been very dry, I developed dry patches on my back! This product not only removed the patches but also healed my skin. Most importantly, it does not flare my H.S. (Hidradenitis Suppurativa)

The BODY GEL contains 100% coca butter giving the product that nostalgic scent we all love. Other replenishing oils were added to the BODY GEL OIL to revive the skin and give a noticeable glow. After my skin is dry, I apply the BODY GEL OIL to my arms, legs, and backside. Because of my H.S flares, I avoid applying products under places. I would most definitely recommend giving this product a try, it WILL heal damaged skin.

If you look to the right side of the photo, you can see my skin is dull compared to how it looks with the BODY GEL OIL applied.

Irresistible? GIVENCHY

Hey there! Its NIKKITHEWRITER & I'm back with another one! I'll call this fragrance THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE & THE CROWD PLEASER. I'm not a fan of sweet scents so this is why I cannot FAVORITE Givenchy's IRRESISTIBLE. The compliments with this one were non-stop! At one point, I began to question if I really disliked the scent myself. How could so many people admire something that I simply did not?  This just proves that there is something out there for everyone! The notes in this scent are luscious rose with blond wood, sparkling pear, ambrette, and musk. Givenchy says the scent symbolizes a "carefree spirit with a strong magnetic charm". The fragrance's presence is noticeable; this isn't a scent that you want to go crazy with. One spray... then walk away! The aroma's longevity is impressive; I sprayed one squirt on my winter coat & ended up having to wash it before applying a new perfume. This product did not wear off. If you're looking for a BOLD, floral, feminine spray, this one has most certainly proven to get the attention of anyone who passes by... Irresistible.

"The packaging is just as amazing as the product! Its making of glass is exceptional, it has a very luxe look & feel" 

- Nicole



GLAZED DONUT is top tier when it comes to after shave products! I never knew I needed something so much until I tried this solution! The applicator, as you can tell from the photos, is a dropper! This makes the product easy to control & apply. TRULY did not disappoint with this one, the aroma is extremely light, sweet & pleasant. Its so light that it won't overbear! This product leaves skin with a velvety smooth finish that anyone would LOVE. This after shave is VEGAN & HARSH CHEMICAL FREE! It has vitamin E along with other natural oils such as Jojoba seed oil, which is one of my personal favorites. The packaging is just as amazing as the product! Its made of glass with a very luxe look & feel.

I applied this product after I shaved. I had no breakouts, no ingrown hair issues. This product was gentle enough for me to use all over my body.

Review

 I'm sure by now you've seen this brand EVERYWHERE! If you suffer from skin issues, you're heading in the right direction! I've been using this brand for over 2 years! I've been suffering with Hidradenitis Suppurativa (H.S) since my early 20's! If you are unaware of what this is, consider yourself lucky! Having H.S can really be a burden! I cannot wear certain brands because the product may activate a flare up. Over the years I've done research & tested several products. We're in the month of December & I have almost made it through the year without a SEVERE flare up! Before I switched to NATIVE I had them frequently under my arms. 

Pictured are the deodorants and body washes that I LOVE!! The fragrances are so different from other brands out there!

 Sea Salt & Cedar is the first bodywash I selected from this brand! Although these washes are unisex, the Sea Salt & Cedar wash can be described as a masculine sent. The aroma is present but not overbearing.

Truly Beauty's 

UNICORN FRUIT DEODORANT 

 If you have sensitive skin, consider yourself TRULY lucky to be here! Truly Beauty's Unicorn fruit deodorant is safe for the sensitive girlies! The soft sent is sweet and pleasant, this would be a great product for pre-teens & teens! Not only is the product amazing, but the packaging is also very dainty! You can ABSOLUTELY tell that the company spent extra time and money on what the product would be stored in. We love when companies do this, it shows that the brand believes in their product! 

The ingredients include fruit extracts like lemon & orange, as well as an assortment of natural oils such as, Coconut oil, Sunflower seed oil & Papaya oil. This product is VEGAN & ALUMINUM FREE! 

💋My personal experience with this product:  I would suggest using this particular deodorant in the winter when the weather isn't as hot. Although this is safe for sensitive skin, this product may need to be re-applied.
