Amazing Moisturizer! Peter Thomas Roth Max All Day Moisture Defense Cream
I was in the market for a new daytime moisturizer, so I decided to buy Peter Thomas Roth, despite the fact that I had never sampled it before. Similar to his other product that I have ranted and raved over, I was delighted with this purchase. The moisturizer absorbs in a flash (so you don’t waste precious morning-time waiting for it to dry). It has an SPF of 30, so you can be confident your skin is protected no matter what comes up. Impromptu office picnic? No problem…
But, my favorite part is this– it is so gentle on the skin, it can be used on anyone from 6 months of age and older. On top of working well on my skin, I can use this product to protect my entire family!
Blinc Kiss Me Mascara
I’m going to have to eat crow and take back what I wrote in a previous post about all mascaras being the same. The truth is, with all of the R&D in the multi-billion dollar personal care products industry, some innovative product has resulted.
Blinc "Kiss Me" mascara doesn’t just paint the lashes as traditional mascaras do. It surrounds each lash in an actual tube of color impervious to running and smudging. I admit, the idea of this creeped me out at first. I got past my initial hesitation, and now "Kiss Me" is my mascara of choice.
Immediately upon application, I noticed that my lashes looked more voluminous. Unlike other mascaras I have tried that made my lashes appear just thicker or longer, this seemed to actually give the appearance that I had more of them (if that’s even possible). I then put its staying power to the test. I napped while wearing the mascara, and woke to find… nothing! Usually if I fall asleep wearing mascara, I awaken to dark smears around my eyes that require repair. I also wore the mascara for a nice long soak in the tub, and emerged to find no running whatsoever! I even wore the mascara during a massage, and despite lying face-down for the better part of an hour, this mascara stayed put. Its staying-power is truly wedding worthy.
Removal of the product isn’t tricky at all. I just rubbed a cotton pad soaked with my usual eye-makeup remover across my lashes, and the little tubes came right off on the pad. You can even see them!
