boscia Cactus Water Moisturizer

It is a great day when I get to introduce all of you Beauty Bag Dolls to a skincare line that has changed my combination mostly oily acne prone skin! Boscia is an amazing brand and their boscia Cactus Water Moisturizer has changed my view on moisturizer for the better. I always hesitate when it comes to moisturizer and trying new ones because my skin reacts with either a breakout, redness or rash. The boscia Cactus Water Moisturizer is made for combination to oily skin which appealed to me immediately and it is described by bosica as "ultra-lightweight moisturizer gives thirsty skin a sip of hydration courtesy of The Queen of Night Cactus, leaving skin soft, smooth and supple. This fast-absorbing solution for combination to oily skin helps improve moisture levels without the weight of a heavy cream. Perfect for priming and perfecting the skin prior to makeup application."  I was so eager to give this a try the same day it arrived and my love affair began. Read on to learn more.

This boscia Cactus Water Moisturizer is a game changer in my skincare routine and a skin savoir! Just an fyi you can put it on the fridge and it will give your skin a cooling sensation upon application! A beauty bag must have for sure!

The first time I tried this was at night after cleansing and toning I reached for this moisturizer and after opening it I saw that it was gel based and I like that when it comes to my acne prone skin because it for me absorbs quicker and not may brands have a gel based moisturizer so I was pleased. It was also unscented which was welcomed because I don't always love scent on my skin before going to bed it seems to have green tint but goes on completely clear and absorbs in 30 seconds to a minute. My skin drank it in and it felt very soft and smooth. I went to bed woke up and saw that my skin was plump, soft and smooth. I went ahead and used it that morning and skipped primer using the boscia Cactus Water Moisturizer as my moisturizer and primer. My makeup application after using this was a breeze and my skin never broke out, never was irritated and I had no issues. I only noticed that my skin got better day after day using this. In fact the fine lines around my eyes and on my forehead softened after day 5. My skin was always hydrated but not tacky or sticky it was never left feeling oily or greasy like with other moisturizers. When my skin was a little extra dehydrated from being out doors or going to the beach, I immediately would get home cleanse and apply this and my skin would just drink it in and the dryness was gone in a few hours. I love this right now as my summer moisturizer and with my combination oily skin I can see myself using this in the fall and winter as well to keep my skin's hydration balanced. I also want to note that it helped with some redness in my face and that was very welcomed because I have never really found a moisturizer that helps with redness that does not break me out. I honestly don't want to ever go back to another moisturizer again. I am giving the boscia Cactus Water Moisturizer a 5 $$$$$ and EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

ApotheCARE Essentials Purifying Clay Mask

Beauty Bag Dolls I am so excited to be brining you a review from a favorite brand of mine ApotheCARE Essentials. This time I am thrilled to be bring you a review of their amazing phytoDEFEND Purifying Clay Mask. I am a huge mask fan and this one is added to my must have list. My skincare routine is very important to me and the mask part of my routine is a daily thing. The ApotheCARE Essentials Purifying Clay Mask is made with Persian silk tree bark and white  willow bark. This mask is seriously good so read on to learn more.

The texture of this mask is like no other its so luxe I love it and your skin will feel so soft and glow! I use ApotheCARE Essentials Purifing mask twice a week to keep my pores clean and healthy!

When this arrived I could not wait to try it out so that night I used it for the first time and when I opened the jar of ApotheCARE Essentials Purifying Clay Mask I knew it was going to good for my skin type because it was a clay based mask which is awesome for my oily skin (so is mud of course). It is super light and whipped up but after you apply a layer it does dry down quite nicely on your skin leaving it feeling tight. It has a scent which I want to note because I know some people do not like scent. For me its not a bother because its on you skin for around 10 minutes but no more than 12 for it to dry down and then as you rinse you will feel exfoliating like beads that I did not notice as I applied it. It felt really nice and rinsed clean leaving my oily skin not dry but tight and matte. My pores were smaller immediately and I used this twice a week and saw a reduction in my pores. My skin is also brighter and so soft and supple. According to ApotheCARE Essentials PhytoDefend Purifying Clay Mask "draws out environmental toxins and pore clogging oil for clearer, fresher and healthier looking skin." I can absolutely attest to the claims because my skin looks and feels so amazing! I am in love with this brand and I am adding more and more of their products into my routine and the ApotheCARE Essentials Purifying Clay Mask is one of them for sure with a 5 $$$$$ and EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

Wildbloom Skincare Serum & Face Oil

#BeautyBagDolls I have a really great products for you today. They at from Wildbloom Skincare. This brand has really changed my skincare routine since starting to use this brand. I am going to review their Hyaluronic Rescue Face Serum and the Perfect Clarity Face Oil.  Now I have always been nervous using a hyaluronic serum until I learned about this one and I am a open to face oils because they have always worked well for me so read on to learn more.

These two Wildbloom skincare product together make your skin glow!

The Wildbloom Skincare Hyaluronic Rescue Face Serum made me nervous until I read that is made for sensitive combination skin which describes mine perfectly. After cleansing I use one pump as suggested (which is more than enough for your face, neck and décolletage) Now I apply this all over my skin and it absorbs very quickly in under 30 seconds. I had experienced no irritation or stinging which is great because other serums have irritated my skin but the Wildbloom Skincare Hyaluronic Rescue Face Serum absorbed quickly and left my face feeling smooth and less redness in my chin (that has always been an issue for me). However, the serum truly reduced my redness and soothed my skin. I followed up with the skin changing I want to sing about Wildbloom Perfect  Clarity Face Oil. This face oil has changed my skin from oil and or dry to just plain normal! Normal is just perfect. I apply this each morning after the serum. I applied about 2 or 3 drops all over my face and I literally watched my pores shrink after about three uses. My face drank this in and within about a minute I could apply my makeup. My old scars from some acne breakouts faded and I didn't have any new breakouts even though I was using a oil! My skin feels soft, supple and balanced! Both the Hyaluronic Rescue Face Serum and Perfect Clarity Face Oil are a 5 $$$$$. They have honestly changed my combination skin for the best it has been in a long time. You must try this it gets EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

I am floored at how my skin is now soft and supple after using this for just a few days. Visit http://usa.loccitane.com/

I opened up this beautiful jar of L'Occitane En Provence Shea Butter Light Comforting and I knew it was different because when I touched my finger to it, it felt really light and not greasy at all. My face and neck felt hydrated with a lightweight formula that lasted all night. I prefer to use this at night because it gave my face a recovery type of feeling. Giving it hydration all night and the next morning my skin still felt soft and supple, it did not need more moisture because this cream makes it truly last.  After I apply it on clean dry skin I am thrilled at how quickly it absorbs and honestly I have been using this every night since I received it and I haven't even thought about using anything else, this is perfect for the summer time. It is one of the best creams I have tried that has shea butter in it that really comforts my dry acne prone skin that is so super sensitive. I use this even on nights that my skin seem oily and in all honesty it controls my oily skin and what I have also notice when using this on my neck and décolletage is that it seems to be hydrated just the right amount that the fine lines have smoothed out. I will not be without the L'Occitane En Provence Shea Butter Light Comforting Cream it is a beauty bag must and gets a 5 $$$$$ for helping everyone with getting awesome skincare even combination skin can use this.
