REN Clean Skincare - Glow One Step Further Set - Daily AHA Tonic, Glycolic Renewal Mask & Vitamin C Gel Cream Review

I have been a huge fan of REN Clean Skincare for quite a long time, but since I always began using these as soon as I brought these home, it was impossible to take good pictures for the blog. The Daily AHA Toner is my favorite for the past two years and I have purchased this several times, but couldn't really share it on the blog. Even in today's post all of these products are half empty - or shall I say half used, but I still managed to gather myself to post these because you NEED to know about these extraordinary products. 

My journey with Vitamin C products isn't a nice one. I developed an allergic reaction to some Vitamin C serums in the past, after which I was scared to even try Vitamin C products ever again. When you get acne at 30 and it scars your skin, you feel like all the time you spent as a teenager taking care of your skin is wasted. Its devastating and I was sure I am never going back down that route.  

So, if I used retinol treatment at night, do I do the quintessential Vitamin C routine in the morning? We know the drill - retinol at night, vitamin C in the morning and SPF, but how do I do that? I began using water creams, gel formulas and generally anything calming for my skin for years before I was confident I am ready for Vitamin C products again. At age 36 I need that glow! Hyperpigmentation is real and I needed some kind of acids in my routine! So I trusted this clean skincare line, which is vegan, created without the regular toxins, marked 'Clean at Sephora' and BINGO! Sold! My love for Ren Skincare began with its Vitamin C products because it worked for my skin and I am so happy to finally share and recommend a vitamin C skincare range with you :)

Disappointments so far...

Today's post is one of its kind, as it features a collection of products that did not work for me. I decided to put them all together in a single post, because honestly, I don't wanna bombard you guys with a bunch of product failure posts. Without much ado, lets begin...

100% Pure Pineapple Enzyme Facial Peel Review and Photos

Whenever I talk about peels, the most common reaction is, 'why do we need to put chemicals on our skin?' or 'I don't wanna look like Samantha Jones, even if its just for a day'! I know people can never forget that scene but the good news is that facial peels can be done safely at home with no adverse reactions, even to sensitive skin types like myself. I love using peels and I feel they are the most gentle way to exfoliate skin. With regular use, my skin not only felt and looked smoother, but I also saw a major reduction in blackheads on nose, white heads on chin and acne marks on my cheeks. Its probably the best form of exfoliation available and it gets even better when its from 100% Pure :)

Today, I will share some pics, ingredients, how to use and my overall experience with Pineapple Enzyme Peel from 100% Pure.

Serious Skincare The Beauty Book Vol VII - Photos

I received a big box of goodies from Serious Skincare on Friday and I was overwhelmed by the number of anti aging products it contains. Although, I may not be using all of them right away, as I am working on a a really gentle and natural skincare, (that I will share with you very soon) I would be using some that really stood out to me.
The Beauty Book from Serious Skincare is worth $459.40 and is currently for $119.25 on their website. They have been the top skincare line on HSN and have been selling for 19 years in the USA. They will be on TSN on Feb 13 and 14, so make sure you catch them on the show.
This is a picture heavy post and contains only the description of each product.

Current Skincare Routine .. Mostly The Body Shop stuff!

Hey guys!

I am back on my blog after months and honestly, I feel weird!! Its been long since I photographed my beauty products! *Sigh* Anyways, there was so much going on in my life that I could hardly find any free time to type out my reviews. Although, being a beauty blogger, I was always in that evaluative frame of mind; where I silently decide which ones to keep and kept thinking about blogging about them some time...guess now is the time!! yayyy!!!
So, I am gonna start with my current skincare and body care products. Over all of this time, I finally feel, I have the right products for my skin care and its worth sharing as a whole, as opposed to individual reviews. So, without further ado, lets begin with what I have on my bathroom vanity!

The Body Shop Vitamin C Skin Boost - Review

Hey guys!

Hope you are having a great Sunday! I thought about sharing this Vitamin C Skin Boost by The Body Shop (TBS) today, because, I felt its been ages since I shared something like this on my blog. We girls, are always looking for something that is multi-functional and this Vitamin C Skin Boost is an absolutely fantastic mix of skincare and makeup. I would say its great for achieving a clear complexion while acting as a makeup primer.
Let start with pics and move on to my experience with it for the past six months or more...
