etleé French Vanilla Intense

Happy August Beauty Bag Doll's! I hope your summer has been beautiful to all of you! My summer has been nonstop busy, which is why my posts here have been few and far between. I have been traveling nonstop since late May for work, brand trips and personal travel. In fact as I type this blog I am staring at my repacked suitcase that was just unpacked yesterday because I am heading out shortly. Although life is busy I do update my Instagram and TikTok constantly with my latest must haves and about my traveling. Since you all have direct messaged me about how much you love my non beauty posts I am including more of those as well. Thanks again for always sticking with me and supporting my blog and other social media channels if I'm ever MIA on here just check TikTok and Instagram for updates. 

Now back to Beauty Blogger business. I recently received a perfume from Ivybeauty.com and it is an amazing opportunity for me and you. This brand deal really is awesome. If you have followed me for a while you know I love fine fragrances but they are pricey. I have spoiled myself over the years with expensive perfumes and honestly I still do from time to time. However, the more affordable fragrances have really stepped up their game including Ivybeauty' s etleé French Vanilla Intense. This smells so amazing and pretty much exactly like my favorite Kayali Vanilla 28. I wrote my review for Ivybeauty and it is below:

I am loving this perfume. It is a warm, sweet vanilla bean scent that has a musk too it. It also has a floral finish that when it dries down on you it will make you get noticed. I have worn this on several occasions and received multiple compliments every single time. It lasts for hours on your skin and no more than three spritz are needed. I am a gourmand scent lover and this one is top shelf on my vanity. Bottle line it's warm and inviting as well as affordable I will be continuing to recommend this to everyone.

This smells devine!

Ilia Sun Serum Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 w/ 8 Hour Oil Control

Happy Monday Beauty Bag Doll's! I am back with another Beauty launch from Ilia! I adore this brand because they get it right! The just launched the Ilia Sun Serum Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 with 8 Hour Oil Control. I have had the privilege of trying this out thanks to PINCHme and Ilia Beauty for sending it out to me to try out for a few weeks before leaving my review for both Ilia and Sephora. It retails for $ 40.00 and is clean at Sephora. 

Very lightweight and absorbs beautiful tint.

Grab this ASAP it's the best sunscreen that is actually a serum!

My review is below:

Ilia made the perfect sunscreen. As an oily skin woman finding a sunscreen that doesn't look and feel greasy is difficult until now. The serum texture that this has is lightweight and absorbs into my skin like skincare. The tint is beautiful and this leaves no whitecast. It can be worn alone because of the beautiful glow it leaves or under makeup. I am in awe with this formula and the performance. Ilia you have made sunscreen a dream. 

The perfect sunscreen all year round.

This is a beauty Bag must haves and another product I will always  repurchase from Ilia.

Davines LOVE Smoothing Heat Protectant Serum

Happy May to all my Beauty Bag Doll's! I know we are several days into my busiest month but I have been very busy testing several products for all of you. The lastest is the Davines LOVE Smoothing Heat Protectant Serum that was gifted by Davines via Skeepers. It is sold at Sephora and costs $33.00. I have not personally stopped using it. I was required to of course test it for several days before reviewing it on Sephora.com and I did so. This coming week will have another review so stay tuned here and on my Instagram and TikTok. My review is below.

#gifted_by_Davines

This is an absolute game changer for my haircare routine. It is hydrating my hair without leaving it feeling greasy or heavy. My hair drank it in and felt so soft and smooth. It controlled frizz well and protects my hair from heat styling. I also love the way this smells. I highly recommend this to everyone. 

The texture is so lightweight and it smells amazing!

Ilia Skin Blur Serum Concealer & Super Serum Skin Tint

Beauty Bag Doll's I have a double feature for you today. I have been testing several products over the past 6 weeks and these two from Ilia were included. This is part of the reason why my posts for all of you have been on the slower side. I am lucky enough to receive products before they are released to the public and I have to keep them a secret all while testing them out for several weeks to give you, my Beauty Bag Doll's a real honest review. Today I have a full review of the new launch of the Ilia Skin Blur Serum Concealer and a review of a new to me Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint Broad Spectrum SPF 40 Sunscreen. I was blessed to receive these both for free from PINCHme and Ilia in exchange for my honest review. 

A pair that is made for one another and my skin loves it.

Ilia dropped a new concealer and I am beyond impressed and I am a fan of the previous formula so I was taken aback when they decided to release the Skin Blur Serum Concealer. This is sold at Sephora, it is $32.00 and is packed with good for you ingredients.

I didn't think I could love a long wear concealer this much!

My experience with this Ilia concealer is nothing but positive. I have not stopped wearing it since it arrived. The formula is hydrating yet it self sets. It is all skin type friendly. Even my combination acne prone skin is happy. It covers my dark circles and any imperfections that I have. It does not crease which to me is worth it weight in gold. I do not have the crease lines in my around my eyes after 8 plus hours of wear. The applicator is worth noting because the shape get in the corner of your eyes. I also want to mention this feels more like skincare than a heavy concealer yet it is a medium coverage. There is no smell to this formula and your skin will love it.

Along with trying the brand nee Ilia concealer I got to try the Ilia Super Serum Skin Tint Broad Spectrum SPF 40 Sunscreen. I am an avid user of the Ilia Foundation and I have been using it since 2022 read that review here. However when given the opportunity to try the Super Serum Skin Tint I said yes sign me up. This is again packed with skincare ingredients like plant based squalane and niacinamide to promote smooth and even skin. Two sizes of hyaluronic acid to soften the look of fine lines and wrinkles. All while being oil free, fragrance free and silicone free. I am all for this formula as well as SPF 40. This is also available at Sephora for  $48.00. Read on for my review.

This is a beautiful skincare formula for skin tint coverage!

This truly the best of both worlds. I don't know how Ilia did it but they packed skincare and a beautiful lightweight buildable medium coverage in a hydrating skin tint. I use this every single day. The coverage is beautiful and it blends perfectly with just your fingers. It is a dewy formula that gives your skin that beautiful glow and I am beyond happy. This is the best skin tint I have ever used the added SPF makes it even better along with antiaging skincare makes this a slam dunk. I am only going to purchasing this skin tint from here on out. Pair it with the Ilia concealer and you will get full coverage for the full beat baddie. 

These are both beauty Bag must haves and two more products I will always  repurchase from Ilia.

Natasha Denona Hy•Glam Brightener

Beauty Bag Doll's it's good to be back! I have been gone for a minute but I have been keeping a Natasha Denona launch from all of you. I was lucky enough to try the Hy•Glam Brightener for a few weeks before it's official Sephora launch and I fell in love with it after the first use. I received the Natasha Denona Hy•Glam Brightener from BzzAgent in exchange for my honest review and below I will leave for you the review I left for BzzAgent. 

My review:

This is an absolute game changer and must have! I have been using this for several weeks and my under eye area looks better than ever. This eye brighter glides on and blends out beautifully. It makes my dark circles disappear and it did not crease even after a 12 hour day. You can layer it with or without concealer depending on the coverage you need. I honestly have not reached for anything else after using this for the past 3 weeks. Natasha Denona made a brighter I can't be without.

This is an absolutely must have and a luxurious formula.

I want to note that this sells for $32.00 and is worth every penny. If you purchase this starting today at Sephora you can save 20% or 15%/10% starting April 14. Savings depends on your Sephora membership status. I personally will never be without this so I have already purchased a back up.

Innisfree Green Tea Supercharged Set for Hydration & Skin Barrier Support

Beauty Bag Doll's Happy March! Can you believe it's almost spring. I know technically it is considered meteorological spring but my skin does not agree just yet. I have been using for well over a month now a new Innisfree Green Tea Supercharged Set that was sent over to my by Skeepers for my honest review. As mentioned I had well over a month to try it out and leave a review on Sephora.com. I was of course required by Skeepers to do so and I will leave that honest review for you here.

Hydrating duo that my skincare routine has to have!

My review:

This is an awesome skincare system. The Green Tea Milk is soothing and hydrating yet my skin drank it in and glowed. The Green Tea cream hydrated my skin perfectly and kept it balanced. My skin is acne prone but this system doesn't break me out. My skin is plump, soft, glowing and has bounce to it. This is a very effective skincare system that I am sticking with. 

I kept this a secret for over a month but I know it delivers results! Firming your skin and leaves it with a glow and bounce!

 Happy Valentines Day week Beauty Bag Dolls! I hope February has been good to you so far! I am excited for this review and if you follow me on TikTok and Instagram than you know I already dropped my review for the Estee Lauder Futurist HydraPlump Lip Balm but I never want to forget my loyal Beauty Bag Dolls so I will leave my review here for you. Also if you're making a Boo basket for Valentines day I recommend this as one of the goodies you include. I am a a big fan of a pink Lip color so this one is in my wheel house but I have been stepping out but this is a beautiful shade. Read on to read the review I left.

A Beauty Bag must have!

This is a hydrating lip balm with a beautiful shade. I have the shade 705 Petal Boost and it is a gorgeous shade of pink. I can wear it day or night. It is not sticky it's just a plushy balm that keeps your lips very hydrated and soft. I highly recommend it! I am going to have multiple shades of these.

Innisfree Retinol Green Tea PDRN Firming Serum

Beauty Bag Dolls I am so happy to bring you a new review of the Innisfree Retinol Green Tea PDRN Firming Serum. I was lucky enough to receive this complimentary from Skeepers and Innisfree. I wrote my review for Skeepers after using this for three days because I was so excited about my results. I will post my initial review that I left for Skeepers and an update. This is sold at Sephora for $37.00. I hesitate with Retinol for a multiple reasons but this one has green tea which I heard good things about. So I tried it and well read on.

This is the best Retinol serum I have tried in a long time! I cannot wait to try more from Innisfree!

My Review:

This is the best firming serum. I have used it twice daily and I saw results within 3 days. The lines on my forehead softened significantly. I never had any  sensitivity just results that I am happy with. It also has no scent and absorbs quickly. 

The texture is very light and absorbs quickly!

Update: I have not stopped using it and the results are amazing. My skin is firmer and my funes lines are diminish. Give this a try. You won't regret it.
