Dermadeli Invigorating Vitamin C Serum


Superfoods aren’t just good for your body, they’re great for your skin, too! I am happy to share my full experience with Dermadeli’s Invigorating Vitamin C Serum after a little over a month of use. Dermadeli kindly gifted me this excellent product that’s packed with natural antioxidants to repair damage and reverse the effects of aging.


A potent 20% concentration of ingredients like Pomegranate Seed Oil, Orange and Lemon Juice Extracts can help reduce sun damage, boost elasticity, and help improve wrinkles! I thought this would be the perfect addition to my summer skincare routine and counteract all of the extra sun exposure. Per the recommended 3-4x weekly usage, I began by implementing this serum into my routine every other day and was looking forward to the results, especially how much it can reduce my fine lines, such as the ones on my forehead and smile lines.


It’s best kept refrigerated, not only for the incredible cooling sensation but for extending the shelf life and boosting the antioxidant power as well. Right out of my mini-fridge, I always give the bottle a couple of shakes to properly mix it, then apply it after cleansing and toning. I really enjoy the glass bottle and hygienic dropper to control the exact amount according to what I need.


The pale yellow, watery-textured formula soaks right in as soon as it’s dispensed and smells tasty with a soft citrusy scent. While I can feel a little bit of tackiness right after, it vanishes as I move forward with the rest of my routine. Right away, I loved the lightweight feel, smoother, tighter skin and luminous glow it gives me, plus I’ve had no irritation or reactions and actually have had a reduction in redness! After just a few days, I was already thrilled with the results and couldn’t wait to see what more it had in store.


I find myself reaching for this serum at least every other day, and sometimes even more frequently if I feel my skin needs it. The texture of this serum has a very light, watery feel and my skin just drinks it up straight away. As I mentioned last time, it has just the tiniest bit tackiness, but that vanishes once you move on with the rest of your skincare routine.


Now, after a whole month of use, I’ve seen an improvement on the little sun spots around my face, now brighter and not as noticeable. Another small improvement has been smaller indentation of my smile lines, and most importantly the horrendous forehead line is less prominent. Plus, I’m happy to see a reduction in pore size as my skin is tauter and feels overall more firm. In skincare terms, a month isn’t really that long, but I’m already seeing great results! I really can’t recommend this serum enough, so be sure to check it out!

Elizavecca Moisture Hyaluronic Acid Memory Cream



One of my favorite brands, Elizavecca, is back again with Moisture Hyaluronic Acid Memory Cream! This pretty light-blue cream takes its name from the fact that the formula has shape memory, meaning no matter how it’s been stirred or mixed up, it returns to its original form over time.


It contains a potent combination of naturally occurring and moisture-boosting Hyaluronic Acid, Allantoin, and Adenosine. The Allantoin and Adenosine in particular provide powerful anti-aging properties by helping to hydrate, smooth wrinkles, soothe, heal, and protect the skin from ultraviolet light.


As usual, it all comes in Elizavecca’s uniquely adorable packaging with a cute tiny spatula!


Just to observe the “memory” part of this cream, I started out by giving it a good stir until it was uneven and clumpy in the container. Right before my eyes, it began to smooth out and recombine until it was like I’d never touched it. The bouncy, jelly-like cream is actually fun to play around with in the container and is actually a nice sensory experience.



To apply it, I removed it in a gel-like clump from the container using the nifty spatula, which had an instant cooling sensation that melted away with the heat of my skin as it turned into a moist, clear liquid. Once fully applied to my face, I also noticed a very faint floral scent that’s pleasant, but not overwhelming or off-putting at all.  It absorbed rather quickly, but didn’t completely sink in, so my face felt soft and hydrated.


Going in, I expected it to be a heavy cream and problematic for my oily skin, but I have yet to experience any clogging or other adverse reactions. Based on my results, I think this is a great moisturizer for people with either dry or combination skin.


It’s also worth noting that alongside the very gentle main ingredients, this product is completely paraben, sulfate, alcohol, and allergen free. Just a small dab is enough to get total coverage, so it’ll be a while before I need more, but I’ll certainly be turning to Elizavecca Moisture Hyaluronic Acid Memory Cream again in the future.

Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Body Builder

Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Body Builder spray is an excellent way to boost your hair's definition and volume without having to tease and fuss with it. If you’re anything like me, with pin straight hair that just forms to the face this spray allows for customizable volume as you switch from Low to Medium.


Easy to use, you just spritz sections of your hair and remember to keep the nozzle 8-10” away to avoid any over saturation of product in any one particular area. It's easy to go overboard and add too much product though, so less is more, which is why I like to work from the low setting. This allows you to achieve instantaneous voluminous hair in a matter of minutes by spraying and working in with your hands.


I don’t mind the scent and don’t find it overbearing, but may be a bit unsettling for those who are sensitive. Also, if you do go a little to ham with the product, you’ll definitely start to feel the filmy/tacky texture. I especially noticed that if I used too much that day, I had to wash my hair the next day because I woke up with weighted, greasy looking hair.


That said, what’s great is that it contains no parabens or phthalates, silicone-free and works great with any hair that is colored or chemically treated. The Body Builder is designed to protect from heat damage up to 450 degrees and works best on already dried and styled hair.

As you can see mine has H (high) & L (low) instead.
I agree that it allows for movability, since I am still able to brush my hair with my hands or a brush without any brittleness or weight.  Overall, Living Proof has delivered an excellent finishing spray that gives my limp, straight hair some oomph!

Nakeup Face / One Night Cushion Foundation


Nakeup Face One Night Cushion is a care-free foundation that nourishes your skin while giving you a natural, no-makeup look. This cushion is unique because it’s the only one that you can sleep in without fear of irritation or wasting the product.


At first glance, the One Night Cushion looks absolutely luxurious with its beautiful, sparkly packaging paired with a thoughtful clamshell design that houses the product and cushion. The foundation itself is also verified EWG green, meaning that the ingredients have been deemed safe and healthy according to extremely stringent testing.


Personally, I almost never use cushion foundation, and instead opt for tube-dispensed liquid foundation. However, I’ve found that Nakeup Face has gone above and beyond by creating a cushion that distributes the product well without soaking it all up, like I’ve experienced before with the competition. It also helps that this is a wet foundation with great saturation, while I’ve tried cushions before that were incredibly dry.


Upon the first application, it’s a very light foundation, but it can be built up to a medium, which I prefer since it helps cover my problem areas. The product isn’t too cakey and spreads very evenly, and as it turns out, the #01 Ivory Nude shade is actually a perfect match for my skin tone as well. As an extra tip, you can also forego the cushion and use a beauty blender to apply the foundation.


In use, it does not seem at all oily, is lightweight, and has no stickiness, all while looking very natural. There is a very faint clean scent, but after the initial application it will go unnoticed.


Ultimately, I can definitely see myself using this as an everyday foundation. That said, I’d be reluctant to try wearing this to sleep since I’m afraid of getting product on my linens, but I look forward to testing it out with a towel covering my pillow.

Elizabeth Mott / Thank Me Later Eye Primer

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Lock in your look with Elizabeth Mott Thank Me Later Eye Primer! The simple pink bottle is a cute design and quite a decent size since you only need a small amount for each eye.


Getting right down to business, the primer goes on smooth with its lightweight formula and soft pink shade. Based on past experience, I was surprised to find that there was no sticky or tacky feeling at all, and the product moves smoothly without clumping.


There’s also an instant silky and nourishing feeling once applied, but after settling, you can barely feel it and it takes on a nice matte texture. After just 15 seconds or so, everything is dry to the touch and you’re ready to play!



In use, I found Thank Me Later to be long lasting, and it definitely won’t smudge or budge. I noticed a considerable amount of color staying power and was easily able to build and blend my shadows out over the primer.


Six hours later, I hadn’t noticed any creasing, fading, or fallout. I typically skip eye primer in my routine, since most I’ve tried have been terrible, but thanks to Elizabeth Mott it’s a necessity now.


That’s especially true on hot summer days, when everything likes to melt and shift, but not with this! Don’t let the rain, sweat or tears stop you either since it’s highly waterproof and won’t budge a bit. This is by far the best eye primer I’ve ever come across and has completely changed the game for me.
