How I Keep my Skin Healthy...

I wanted to share with you guys my daily/ weekly routine.

These are the products that I use...I will go through them one by one.


These masks are by Montagne Jennesse.  Each mask is targeted for a different area.  This one is directed for "stress" and for normal, dry, t-zone skin, and deep pore cleansing.  They are also really inexpensive 2 for $3.  I only use these maybe twice a month.  When I have a day off and its a low key day, I'll usually throw one of these one and then jump in the shower to wipe it off.
I recently bought this Biore strip and wanted to try them out.  So far they work great, I will use these about once a week. They are meant to instantly remove pore-clogging dirt, oil and blackheads from all of your problems areas.  With just one use they claim to be twice as effective as other leading pore cleansers.  $8.99

I also use this Garnier Ultra Lift Pro Deep Wrinkle Cream during the summer.  It has spf 20 and you apply it before sun exposure.  You are not ever too YOUNG to start anti-wrinkle cream, the sooner you start the better off you'll be. 
Pretty pricey (Cant Remember) Somewhere between $20-$30
(maybe, I might be completely wrong...sorry)

I use this Clean & Clear advantage acne spot treatment. Its recommended to be used once-three times a day.  The only side effect is that it may occur dryness.  But if you want an easy acne spot treatment this is the one for you.  I use this every time I have a breakout.  Its a pretty big tube as well, and since you are only applying a small dot over the affected areas it will last you a pretty long time. 
Purchased at Target: $5-$6

This is my dual-treatment moisturizer by Targets up&up brand.  I use this product every time I feel my skin is feeling a bit dry.  Usually on their products it has a "compare to..." and typically its the same products as the one compared to and its less expensive.  This one is compared to Clean&Clear dual action moisturizer.  A moisturizer helps treat and prevent pimples, it moisturizes dry skin, and contains acne medication with salicylic acid. 
Don't recall the price....  :(

I recently purchased this Loreal Paris Go 360 Clean deep exfoliating scrub.  I am in LOVE with this product ! I apply this every night before bed to remove my makeup.  It is extremely important to exfoliate your skin, especially if you apply makeup daily. The Go 360 clean gently exfoliates dull, dead skin cells and unclogs pores.  It removes all traces of oil, dirt, and makeup and you pores appear visibly smaller.  The pop-out feature is also very handy.
Don't recall the price.... :(


This is my cleanser by Targets up&up collection.  This one is compared to Clean&Clear deep action cream cleanser.  A cleanser is intended to clean deep into pores.  I usually use this every other day in the shower.
Don't recall the price.... :(


I hope you guys got some great information from this...

Enjoy,

Walgreens...


We had people come over to watch the UFC fight and play a little poker...

Since I'm not the biggest UFC fan, my sis and I did a Walgreens run.

First pick is the Fit Me loose powder in Classic Ivory.  I have wanted to try this for a while now. The color fit me perfectly. I am very pleased with it and most definitely recommend it.

$7.99



I always try to get different mascaras and at the end always run back to this one. It does its job, easy as that. $8.99
I purposefully went to Walgreens for a new liquid liner because the one I was using was not doing its thing.  My sister pointed this one out to me and the price was great $1.99.  She let me know some youtube guru was raving about it and even stated it was better than MAC ! So I had to try it, and  yes to my surprise it works wonders !


 I had been using Revlon Color Stay and the color was so dull and not as black as I would like it to be..DONT BUY!!!
                                                          
   Swatches:

My sister picked up some nail polishes and was trying them at my house.  We both really liked this color in NIRVANA...but it was a big disappointment.  After a trillion coats it was still very sheer.
DONT BUY !!!

I will be on vacation the end of this week ! Yay, so excited ! I need a little break ! I hope you guys have a fabulous week !

Enjoy,

Forever 21, Target, and Walgreens....

Last week after a trip to the zoo we decided to stop by the mall and eat at the food court. Of course I had to drop into Forever21...

I picked up this floral romper for spring time, and who can beat the price....$11.50
and this nautical inspired light sweater...It has small sailboats...$15.80


 I also picked up these earrings... $3.80
                                                                                     


 This tooth necklace also caught my eye....$2.80

 

 I also needed some new simple studs.........$2.80


I went to Walgreens a few nights ago and saw these puppies on sale....$3.99
I really like them...



 I also picked up this watch at Walgreens, It was very inexpensive (not real gold). I actually saw the whole watch rack was 50% off and this one happened to be $9.99. When i went to purchase my items, she was having difficulty scanning it and asked me if I recalled it being on sale.  She saw the ticket on it said $9.99 and I told her it was 50% off...She took my word for it and didn't even bother checking it. So I got it for $4.99.....


Spring is HERE ! and I wanted some pastel colors. BTW, I love Sally Hansen InstaDry because I HATE waiting for my nails to dry ! This color is beyond Gorgeous !

 Sometimes when you buy items that are the "store" brand you will pay less...I was looking at the crest white strips and decided to get this instead, they contained the same items, so I just got these....$19.99


Last week I stopped at Target as well and picked up a few things...
I needed these Biore strips for my nose.....$8.99


I needed an exfoliater, I don't recall how much it was though.( but I'm pretty sure all of you have seen it)
I definitely recommend this, It does wonders ! I especially like the pop out feature..

Picked up these two suckers at Target too....Elf $1.00 each ( They work well too, very pleased with them )



 That about wraps it up...

Enjoy,
