Que Bella Professional Illuminating Face Mask Review


You can purchase this mask at Target for $2.49. 

This is an invigorating and deep cleansing face mask. It uses plant extracts to soothe and moisturize your skin and vitamins to help restore a youthful complexion. 

I do not recommend this face mask if you have very sensitive skin. This made my face bright red for an entire day. The mask has a really strong citrus smell and is tingly when you have it on and it felt really refreshing. My face does feel hydrated as well.

Would I purchase? No

W3LL People Expressionist Mascara Review

This mascara claims to instantly create length and volume without clumping or smudging. 

This mascara is very pigmented and provided a lot of length and volume and I did not not notice any clumping or smudging. 

Would I purchase? Yes! Absolutely!

Palmers Coconut Oil Body Lotion Review


You can purchase this lotion for $3.97 at Walmart. 

This lotion claims to give 24 hour moisturization and provide radiance and softness to the skin, 

It is also free of parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, gluten, sulfates and dyes. 

This lotion smells really good, just like coconut and is very creamy. It was not greasy at all and absorbed quickly. Unfortunately my skin was more dried out after using it than it was before I used it. 

Would I purchase? No

Sephora Aloe Vera Hand Mask Review


You can purchase this hand mask at Sephora for $6.00

This hand mask claims to provide intense moisture for beautiful hands. 

This hand mask had a very nice fresh scent. I left it on for the full 15 minuets and after I took them off it took quiet awhile for the essence to absorb into my hands but it was so worth the wait as my hands are so hydrated still 3 days later. 

Would I purchase? Yes!

This mask did not have any noticeable scent. It was a very large mask, I had to cut it down a bit so it would fit on my face and it was very drippy. My face felt very hydrated but I did not notice any other benefits, in fact I ended up breaking out from it.

Amlactin Moisturizing Body Lotion Review


You can purchase this lotion at Target for $12.49. 

This lotion has a special formula with lactic acid that is ph balanced for the skin. It claims to retain moisture deep in the skin leaving you with softer, smoother skin.

Sephora Lavender Foot Mask Review


You can purchase this foot mask at Sephora for $5.00. 

This foot mask is designed to alleviate fatigue and aching feet. It uses lavender extract and menthol. 

This foot mask smelled very strongly of lavender, so if you don't like the smell of lavender it is probably not the mask for you. It was very relaxing to use and my feet are very hydrated from it. 

Would I purchase? Yes
