What products I’ve been loving lately!

Hi all!

So I have been trying out some new stuff recently and I have actually been liking everything. From skincare to haircare products, here’s my list:

Skincare:

  • Clinique Moisture Surge Moisturizer – my skin has been going through this dry phase for some reason and I ran out of my other moisturizer (which was also from Clinique) so I decided to go even further and try the moisture surge. So far, I LOVE this for my face. It really makes it soft, glowey, and hydrates it. I deff think this is my new go to face moisturizing product!
  • Nivea Soft – I really love this for my body. I usually put it on after I get out of the shower, but you can even use it when your legs or arms are feeling dry. It has a nice scent to it and it’s not greasy at all.
  • Thayers Witch Hazel – I tried the smaller version of this since I wasn’t sure if I’d like it, but it’s so nice on my skin. I like to use it in the morning and before I go to bed and so far I am loving it better than my old witch hazel toner. 
  • Mario Badescu Acne Facial Cleanser – So I only got this because it was $7 the other day at Ulta with their 21 days of Beauty sale. It’s been over a week since I have been using it and what this is supposed to do is not get rid of any acne you have prior to using this, but to prevent any future acne from occuring. I haven’t had any breakouts ever since I started using this so I’m not 100% sure it’s from this product, but I usually do get acne now and then so just knowing my face is looking so much better gives me faith in this product. Originally it is $15, so it’s a little pricey, but none of their products have ever disappointed. 
  • Up&Up Makeup Remover Wipes – Usually I use some makeup remover wipes from like Neutrogena and it burns my eyes when removing makeup. I finally found the perfect makeup wipes that don’t burn my eyes when using!!!! They are super gentle and soft to the skin so it causes no irritation whatsoever. I will keep purchasing these for sure!

Haircare:

  • Garnier Fructis Hair Mask – First time trying this product and so far it makes my hair smell good and it also makes it soft. They say you can use this hair mask as a conditioner, leave-in treatment or hair mask depending on what you need. It makes you hair less frizzy and more manageable. Loving it so far and will keep using it! 

  • Garnier® Fructis® Sleek & Shine Intensely Smooth Leave-In Conditioning Cream – I’ve used this in the past and forgot about how much I liked it. I mix this with the oil I am going to talk about next and it just makes my hair super soft. 

  • Garnier® Fructis® Sleek & Shine Moroccan Sleek Oil Treatment – Used this in the past also by combining it with the leave in conditioner above. It always worked good for me, made my hair smell amazing and made it super soft as well! 

  • Garnier Fructis Pure Clean Detangler – Used this up already, got it maybe 2-3 months ago and I LOVED it! My hair always gets tangled easily after I get out of the shower and this helped so much. It also smells amazing!

So these are the products I’ve been loving lately, I might do cleaning products next time – I’ve been trying to get into the “organic” cleaning products. 

 

Tuesday April 10, 2018 🌿

Good morning!

Happy Tuesday 🙂 I am currently up drinking coffee, blogging, organizing my binder, and writing my final copy for my homework that’s due today. I really can’t wait to be done with this test on Thursday so I can do some other stuff not related to school that needs to be done… which is A LOT of stuff. I still didn’t get my dress for my shower and it’s less than 2 weeks away, I’m freaking out over this test so my stress is out the roof. I just honestly can’t wait for it to be May. At least by then I’ll have only one class (hopefully) to focus on and I won’t have to worry about anything related to my shower because that will be done with, too. I just feel soooooo tired, even though I get enough sleep. Maybe because my brain literally doesn’t sleep at night because of all of this stuff I need to think about.

Just finished writing my final copy for my homework and Adisa and I found #3 so we are done yay! About to go drive Mirhad to school and then come back and get ready for class. It’s not super cold outside today so I don’t have to bundle up (finally) and tomorrow and Thursday will be 70 and 76 degrees omg, but I bet next week it’ll get super cold again knowing STL’s weather 😦

I’ve been tracking what I have been eating since yesterday so I think I might keep track of it on here too and that way I can remember to do it as well. I don’t even have a goal weight at this point, I just want to look and feel healthy.

Just got back from driving Mirhad – well actually I got back like 30 minutes ago, but now I am getting ready for class. Today will probably be a quick class because she is just going to go over the stuff we turn in today and then I can just study right when I get home until I have to go pick up Mirhad. I think we are going to the gym after so I’m excited for that!

But yeah, that’s it for now.. will probably do a post of my food log for today!

Bye 🙂
