Summer Essentials

Its the unoffical start of summer #BeautyBagDolls but for me I take care of my skin and hair as if its summer everyday. That being said I will be reviewing for you Erborian BB Crème with SPF 20 (SPF is a must year round) Ban Simply Clean Roll On Antiperspirant Deodorant and the John Frieda Volume Refresh Dry Shampoo. All of these are my Summertime essentials! Read on to learn more.

I reviewed the BB cream on the Left and I love it!

In this photo I reviewed the Ban Deodorant (pictured in center) and the Dry Shampoo from John Frieda both must haves

I want to start with the Erborian BB Crème with SPF 20 since it has SPF 20 it is something I love to reach for to use when I want to get out the door quick and have my SPF and lightweight coverage. The benefits are as follows it "evens out and mattifies the complexion, moisturize and "plump" the skin, refine skin's texture, reduce the appearance of blemishes and gives a non-oily, velvety finish. Your skin is visibly softer, smooth and beautiful with a silky feel, just like "baby skin"." I must say that the BB Crème with SPF 20 made a big difference not only in how quickly I would get out the door and to have lightweight coverage and SPF.

Next is the Ban Simply Clean Roll On Antiperspirant Deodorant is refreshing, fresh florals and powdery amber notes with a hint of peach nectar provides a clean, long-lasting scent and I do love it. It is also great for everyday and for going to the gym, keeps you smelling fresh and dry.

Finally, I am a bit obsessed with dry shampoos and to try out the John Frieda Volume Refresh Dry Shampoo was a delight. I was super impressed that it first and foremost absorbed the oil making my hair feel and look refreshed without having to re-shampoo beautifully styled hair. What impressed me even more is the fact that it helped give me back some volume that I had lost in my hair from the day. After hitting the gym after work I like to use a dry shampoo just to absorb the excess oil in my scalp. These are all Summer Essentials and beauty bag must haves that get a 5 $$$$$ and EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

Doll 10 HydraBalm Serum Infused Foundation

Hi #BeautyBagDolls I am excited to bring you a review of the brand new foundation from Doll 10 which is their HydraBalm Serum Infused Foundation.  The Doll 10 HydraBalm Serum Infused Foundation is available in 6 shades, I have the shade medium and it was perfect for me. Please do read on to learn about my new beauty bag must have.

This is the best foundation I have ever tried! Thank you to Doll 10 for the best formula and for great beauty tools to apply it with! My new beauty bag is amazing! 

According to Doll 10 HydraBalm Serum Infused Foundation is "an innovative formula swirls together a medium coverage, buildable foundation with a potent anti-aging serum, so you get the best of both worlds. The serum combines powerful anti-aging ingredients such as copper tri-peptides, collagen, and retinol with ingredients such as silk, ceramides, chia seed extract and licorice extract, which help make the appearance of skin look brighter and smoother. Combined, you get seamless, hydrating coverage that works hard to improve the look of your skin all-day long."  This formula to be is everything. It glides on with the No. 3 Doll 10 brush and it goes with you on the go with the convenient applicator sponge included. The fact that it comes in a compact form also makes it amazing because you can take it without fear spilling in your makeup bag which I highly suggest the Doll 10 Essentials Travel Case (it fits all of my Doll 10 makeup and Doll 10 brushes). I may have just gone slightly off topic with the Beauty Bag from Doll 10 but hey my blog is called what's inside your beauty bag and when I get one love like this one I cant help but to sing its praises.  The HydraBalm Serum Infused Foundation is truly full coverage I mean my acne and acne scars were completely covered and I didn't even need additional concealer for my under eye dark circles. The formula glided on more like skincare I mean it felt like I was applying a serum and not a foundation. The foundation never settled into fine lines and didn't wear off either. I had this on everyday for hours I mean at least 16 hours a day I mean it from 5AM to 9PM and I never had to reapply. I recommend this for everyday use as well as for any special occasion which mean wedding season is upon us and you can wear this if your the bride or in the bridal party. It makes a great gift because you are giving some one skincare infused foundation. I love it and it along with the case and brushes all get a 5 $$$$$ and EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

Another piece of inside information QVC will debut this kit at 10PM ET on Friday May 18, 2018. The It Cosmetics It's Your Most Beautiful Skin Life Changing Skincare Collection is packed with four full size products and for the first time the Bye Bye Foundation is available in 12 Shades. But remember it is only on sale right now for $69.95  and these kits sell out so grab yours while its still available and read on to learn more. Shop Item Number: A302037

Just these two skincare products alone are my core beauty routine. I will never be without them! Shop this TSV from It Cosmetics early on QVC.com

Inside this set is the Bye Bye Foundation which is in a TSV for the first time ever and I am in love with this foundation so much so that I have reviewed it previously here. A quick description of Bye Bye Foundation Full Coverage Moisturizer with SPF 50+ is that  this is a "first-ever full coverage moisturizer from IT Cosmetics gives you the power to say “bye bye” to beauty imperfections and hello to instant complexion perfection! Infused with full-coverage pigments, and SPF 50+ sunscreen, Bye Bye Foundation is formulated to give you weightless, natural-looking coverage that moves with your skin."

The next two products in the It Cosmetics It's Your Most Beautiful Skin Life Changing Skincare Collection TSV is serum and eye cream. After cleansing my skin each night I followed with It Cosmetics Bye Bye Lines Serum. This serum is like nothing I have ever tried before. It is an Advanced Anti-Aging Wrinkle-Smoothing Miracle Concentrate that has peptides, hydrolyzed collagen, hyaluronic acid, caviar extract, argan oil and vitamins, A,C,E,B1,B2,B3,B5,B7B9 and CoQ1 for deep hydration. The ingredient deck is stacked with ingredients that are really good for your skin and I never see it in other products. Now as for my results I saw the m immediately after application. My skin felt soft and supple. The hydrations also felt so wonderful. I used this in place of moisturizer because my skin really didn't need it. After 5 days I felt like my skin had a bounce to it and the fines lines were non existent. I was thrilled with how my décolletage was moisturized and those pesky lines that formed diminished! The It Cosmetics Bye Bye Lines Serum truly let me say GOODBYE to my lines without any skin sensitivity only results!

The It Cosmetics  Bye Bye Under Eye Eye Cream is made just for fine lines and wrinkles, dark circles and puffiness. Most morning I have some puffiness and at times the dark circles accompany the puffiness. I usually only use an eye cream in the evenings because I have had bad experiences with them as in irritation and sensitively, I mean to the point where my eyes tear so bad I couldn't apply eye makeup in morning and go on about my day normally. That has all changed thanks to the It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Eye Cream. This not only feels as amazing applying like the Bye Bye Lines Serum but it also DOES NOT IRRITATE my sensitive eyes! I am thrilled to report that if I apply this in the AM before makeup my eyes have no issues in fact my fines lines have disappeared within a week and I love when I apply it PM and wake up in the AM I do not have puffiness or dark circles. The hydration around my eye area improved immediately and with ingredients such as anti-aging copper, blue algae, caffeine, Vitamin C, collagen, cucumber extract and peptides I now know why I have such great results. The eye cream has a blue tint to it which is what helps brighten the eye area upon application and I love that effect when I apply this in the morning after not getting enough sleep. It Cosmetics  Bye Bye Under Eye Eye Cream feels great on my skin and absorbs quickly like the Bye Bye Lines Serum. Shop Item Number: A302037

EXTRA LOVEFROM ANNA and a 5 $$$$$ I love It Cosmetics!

Dew Puff

Hello #BeautyBagDolls I am so happy today to be brining you a review of an amazing product called the Dew Puff. The Dew Puff is a Konjac Sponge. They come in three varieties Bamboo Charcoal, Asian Clay and Original. They are a natural way to cleanse your face. You just soak them in water squeeze out excess water and massage them over your face. The Asian Clay and Bamboo Charcoal is recommended for use with no cleanser and the original you can add some cleanser. I love these all and please read on to learn more.

Dew Puff has a Konjac Sponge for every skin type and I love them!

Now for me I was immediate drawn to the Dew Puff Bamboo Charcoal Konjac Sponge. It is for blemish prone skin which I have so you know I had to try this one first. According to Dew Puff
"the Bamboo Charcoal natural sponge contains activated carbon and minerals to help prevent breakouts, plus antioxidants to fight acne-causing bacteria. This konjac sponge is soothing and helps fight blemished skin." I found it great to use in the morning when I don't feel like using a cleanser on my face and this truly refreshed my face and it felt exfoliated yet soft. I had zero irritaitons and no new breakouts. It was great to use something chemical free on my skin. I also jumped at the chance to use the Dew Puff Asian Clay Konjac Sponge. Dew Puff describes it as helping to "stimulate skin cells white absorbing impurities below the pore level. Leaves skin looking rejuvenated, renewed and helps reduce aging." This was one I used in the evening to remove the days impurities and to reveal a healthy glow. I love it as well and had no skin irritation only a cleaned and exfoliated face after each use. I also must note that my pores looked smaller after using the Asian Clay Konjac Sponge. Finally is the Dew Puff Original Konjac Sponge which cleans "without drying out your skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and looking smooth and radiant. Gentle enough for any type of skin - even your baby's skin." This was the one I reached for in the evening to cleanse my skin gently without any harsh chemicals and this truly reveled my skin to be soft and clean without stripping it and leaving it feeling dry or tight. I am truly addicted to the Dew Puff Konjac Sponges they are a gentle and effective at cleansing the skin. These are all beauty bag must haves that get a 5 $$$$$ and EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

I have a love for hand cream and I think everyone should. Your hands go through a lot from washing them to washing them again and then some I am a bit of a hand cream addict, I have them all over the house and in all my handbags and makeup bags. Thankfully the Skinfix Ultra Rich Hand Cream is one I absolutely love. It is truly rich and creamy read on to learn more.

For hands that need hydration Skinfix Ultra Rich Hand Cream is just what you need.

This rich, yet quick-absorbing hand cream is loaded with natural emollient oils of coconut and sunflower to relieve dryness and cracking on contact.

In an instant my hands feel hydrated and soft all with this thick and creamy hand cream.
