MitoQ Antioxidant And Moisturizing Serum | RagingRouge.com #sponsored #ad #MitoQBeauty #MitoQ #AdvancedCoQ10 — MitoQ Antioxidant and Moisturizing Serum

Getting the opportunity to sample MitoQ has been the highlight of my past month! This revolutionary new antioxidant is called a “breakthrough” as it is formulated to actually revitalize your skin cells by delivering CoQ10 into your cell’s mitochondria. Previously, CoQ10 couldn’t be replaced by taking a supplement, as it couldn’t pass through the mitochondria membrane. Scientists have discovered a way to positively charge CoQ10 so it can pass through the mitochondria membrane and re-energize the mitochondria, reducing and repairing damage caused by free radicals.

I’ll be honest, I was impressed with MitoQ Serum right out of the box. This bottle is so futuristic and beautiful! I was hopeful the contents were equally as impressive! I’m no scientist, so all I can tell you is that my skin loves the MitoQ routine. MitoQ Power Antioxidant Rejuvenation Serum applies feeling as soothing as a cashmere sweater on a fall day, and devoid of all scent. This product isn’t sticky or stinky like some other serums! Another perk is that MitoQ serum replaces your moisturizer as well, so it’s a one-stop shop. This skincare routine is simple and streamlined, perfect for someone who hates a counter-top filled with tubes and tubs of different product to apply!

I’m a big fan of using skincare that works cooperatively with other products, but this was my first time using a nutritional supplement designed to work with my topical skincare! It’s such a brilliant idea, and the routine couldn’t be simpler! Take two MitoQ Targeted Anti-Oxidant pills each morning, and apply the MitoQ Power Antioxidant Rejuvenation Serum twice morning and night. The serum wears beautifully under makeup, so no worries that this product will force you to change your normal routine!

Overall, I’m very pleased with the appearance of my skin since I started using MitoQ. My complexion looks more even and bright. I was worried about replacing my moisturizer and serum with one product, but MitoQ Power Antioxidant Rejuvenation Serum has kept my skin well-nourished and moisturized. It’s exciting to think this product isn’t just topical, but is actually repairing decades of damage to the underlying mitochondria. Overall my energy levels have been great. I feel well rested and energetic all day.

Paula’s Choice Rosacea Skincare Kit Review

I can’t put my finger on the age my porcelain skin started to betray me. In my mid-20’s my skin was a special sort of alabaster, and oh how I loved it. Now I rely heavily on product to even out my skin tone, and some skincare makes my skin really FREAK OUT. You may have noticed I don’t do many skincare reviews anymore, and this is why. Unless of course, there’s a trusted brand involved.

If you’re reading this blog, there’s a strong chance you own Paula Begoun’s book, “Don’t Go To The Cosmetics Counter Without Me“. This voluminous tome contains comprehensive liss of the pros and cons of just about every beauty product in creation, but much of this advice can now be found online. Paula’s very particular, and as a result I knew I could trust my skin to a trial of her skincare. My experience kicked off with a skincare consultation on the phone. I thought this special treatment was because I am a blogger, but nope. EVERYONE can get a consultation all you need to do is call 800-831-4088, and a consultant will ask you questions that will lead to the purchase of skincare appropriate for you.

A Spa Day At Home With Conair

True Glow by Conair, Sonic Skincare Solution

[button link=”https://www.ragingrouge.com/about-raging-rouge/raging-rouge-llc-disclosures” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow” color=”RR” shape=”rounded” size=”small” align=”right”]Press Sample, Sponsored[/button]I understand the summertime dilemma more than you know. When you’re a Stay At Home Mom, summertime means NO BREAK. Those blowouts you love to get as a treat now and then? GONE. The facial you indulge in, and desperately need? NO TIME. When you’re a Mom with children at home, it’s a combination of work and play until they finally fall asleep at night.

What you might have time to squeeze in, however, is a home spa treatment! I’m going to show you how you can enjoy some spa-quality results at home simply using Conair products! More specifically, the Infiniti Pro 3Q Styling Tool and the True Glow Sonic Skincare Solution!

Conair and I go WAY back. I’ve been using their hair care products for a good 30 years. Back in the 80s, I even relied on Conair to make my bedroom phone fashionable (I bought countless colors, and swapped them out depending on my mood). I’ve always been a fan of the brand, so I’m excited to bring their latest and greatest personal care tools to your attention!

True Glow Sonic Skincare Solution

First things first: The FACIAL! If you’re like me, using sunblock more regularly means more congested pores! It’s the price you pay to protect your skin from the sun.

True Glow by Conair, What's In The Box? — True Glow by Conair, What’s In The Box?

The True Glow Sonic Skincare Solution Facial Brush by Conair is just what you need to get a deep cleanse, and keep those pores clear! This dermatologist-tested sonic cleansing device comes with what you see above: a cradle for the device to rest in while charging, a charging cord, the adorable pink True Glow Facial Brush, and TWO brush heads (one for the body, and one for the face).

The True Glow brush cleanses skin at 300 oscillations per second! Trust me, you can’t replicate that action with a washcloth! The device has three speeds as you can see above: low, medium, and high.

Here I am, fresh out of the shower, using the True Glow to cleanse my skin! You don’t need to exit the shower to use this tool, it’s waterproof and safe to use while you shower! Generally speaking, I’ll be using this device while in the shower, to maximize the relaxation factor!

To use the tool, apply your favorite cleanser to damp skin. Then turn the brush on, and select your speed. I chose “low” to keep my sensitive skin calm. Gently glide the brush over the skin in a slow circular motion. No need to apply pressure! The brush only needs to be in contact with the skin.

The instruction manual shows how the device is designed to be used to cleanse 6 sections of your face. Each time the True Glow beeps, you’ll move the brush location to another section. This ensures you don’t miss a spot, or overly linger in one area.

The body brush is much more coarse, and will be a great tool to help me deal with my ultra-dry skin this summer!

After use on my face, my sensitive skin was just fine! I was concerned that it might be too aggressive for me, but I can happily report that it was not.

The True Glow can be found in many mass retail and drugstores near you, or you can Click HERE to see where to buy! Average retail price is a mere $79.99. Not bad considering the price of other sonic cleaning tools!

Infiniti Pro by Conair 3Q Styling Tool

Now to cover that blowout you covet! The Infiniti Pro by Conair 3Q Styling Tool is plain old good looking!

Infiniti Pro By Conair, 3Q Styling Tool Review

I’m loving the silver style of this product, and the fact that it’s lightweight helps too! This dryer features a brushless motor technology that increases the dryer life to a whopping 5,000 hours! That’s a lot of dry time, considering some other AC motor hair dryers only last for 500 hours of use!

I’m going to confess, last summer I barely ever used a hairdryer. Why? I live in the desert, where low temperatures each day are still in the 90s, and highs are in the 100-teens. Even with the air conditioner on, it is not remotely tempting to point a blast of hot air at my head! So here’s something we desert-dwellers will love. The Conair 3Q Dryer uses a lower temperature and faster airflow to minimize heat damage (and keep the user cooler while drying)!

Using The Infiniti Pro by Conair 3Q Styling Tool

I have naturally curly, frizzy hair. This hairdryer was able to deliver a smooth blowout quickly, and at a much lower heat than the dryer I’ve been using every day. The device was noticeably quieter the second I turned it on. I expected this would mean longer dry time, but no! I was able to dry my hair as fast as normal, in a quieter, lower-heat environment.

The Conair 3Q Styling Tool can be purchased in major mass retailer and drugstores. Average retail price is $199.99. Click HERE for more information on where to buy.

Before I bring this post to a close, I want to let you know that Conair will be launching their DoItYourSELFIE photo sweepstakes on June 8, 2015! Entering is so simple! Simply take a selfie while you use your Conair 3Q or share an “after” photo of yourself. Tag is with the #ConairDoItYourSELFIEsweeps hashtag, and you’ll be entered to win! Five winners will be randomly selected on 7/2/15! Click HERE to enter (and good luck to you)!

Scar Away Silicone Scar Sheets Review

[button link=”https://www.ragingrouge.com/about-raging-rouge/raging-rouge-llc-disclosures” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow” color=”RR” shape=”rounded” size=”small” align=”right”]Press Sample[/button]It’s been a year since my youngest had his “accident”. We had literally just moved to another state, and after a two week period where it seemed to be all work and no play, our family visited a water spray park that my youngest son adored. He needed a boost so badly that day, and then it happened. While my son was running toward me through the water spray, another kid crashed into him from the side with full force. My son flew through the air and landed on his side with nothing to break the fall. I didn’t see his head hit the ground, but clearly it did, because as he ran toward me I saw a HUGE gash in his cheek that was deep, and white, and oh my GOD… we need to get to an ER!

After that horrible experience, he was left with a giant scar on his cheek about two inches long. As a beauty blogger, I naturally had an abundance of recommendations from my friends, but nothing topical seemed very effective. Finally, I read about ScarAway. The Silicone Scar Sheets are apparently now popular with surgeons, so I decided to give them a go.

ScarAway Silicone Scar Sheets couldn’t be simpler to use. They apply much like a band-aid, only the entire underside of the bandage adheres to the skin. They are easily (and painlessly) removed in the morning, and don’t leave any sticky residue behind like a Band-Aid would. My son wore them to sleep each night, removing them in the morning. After only a few weeks of use, I noticed big changes in the appearance of his scar, so we kept up the routine. [Read more…] about Scar Away Silicone Scar Sheets Review
