Biossance

I have always struggled with finding a face moisturizer that works for my combination skin. I was pleasantly surprised when I ran across a 30 day Embodied Project with a free sample of the Biossance Revitalizer on Biossance, now at first I was a little bit leery of it as it is an oil and not a normal lotion like I am use to. I was worried I would be a greasy mess and it would cause a break out. I was so pleasantly surprised to find out it was doing neither of those! I am on week 3 of using it and it is by far the best moisturizer I have ever used.
Biossance Revitalizer uses 100% plant- derived Neossance Squalane that instantly hydrates your skin. It is dermatologist tested and is hypoallergenic and paraben free.
You can also use the Revitalizer on your hair and all over your body.
The only downside for me is the cost. For a 1.7 fl. oz bottle it is $58.
Overall, I can not say enough good about this product. I absolutely love it!
Have you tried it? Let me know in the comments if you love this or if you love another moisturizer.

LipZipz

*best lip balm ever! Fell out of my boyfriends pocket when he was rock climbing. He was about 60ft up and his lip zip is still in perfect condition. To bad we can't say the same about his key fob that was on the same key chain. 



I recently ran across this awesome lip balm. I'm all the time looking for lip balms that are easy to carry with me and ones that I won't lose. Well, I definitely found both with this product! 
LipZipz are awesome! Even my boyfriend carries one on his keys. My boyfriend works in construction and rock climbs so his keys in his pocket get put to the test and he hasn't lost of damaged his LipZipz. 
LipZipz have a twist top, no loss lid, retractable cord and a no loss clip. 
They are made with the highest quality natural ingredients and have an SPF of 15. 
There are 3 flavors. Peppermint, Mixed Berry and Piña Colada. The LipZipz retail for $2.89. I personally love the Mixed Berry! Have you tried these yet?

Park Ave Princess

I have always struggled with finding a bronzer that looks good on me. Thanks to my July Ipsy bag I have finally found my go to bronzer! 
This is Tarte Amazonian Clay Waterproof Bronzer in Park Ave Princess. 
This color works great for my fair skin and I think it would look good on most skin tones. Not only does it look great but it's good for your skin. It has vitamins A and E and minerals. What it doesn't have is even better. It does not have parabens, sulfates, or phthalates. 
The only thing I am not a huge fan of is the shine and shimmer but to find a bronzer that looks good it's worth it to me. 
This bronzer retails for $30. 
What bronzer do you use?

Target Beauty Box

Target Beauty Box is my favorite of all beauty boxes.
You just have to pay $7 for shipping and they put them out for each season. This box came out in August and it is probably my favorite so far.
When you first open this box you see two cards:

The cards are a coupon for Targets beauty purchases, a description of the products and a discount on Harry Josh Pro Tools at the dermstore.


Then you get to all your goodies! I have two full size products and 4 sample size. A great value for the $7 I spent on this box. Here are the details on each individual product.
Full Size: Hair Food Moisturizing Mask: A deep- cleaning mask that removes dulling residue to reveal luster and shine.
Crest 3D White Strips 1hr Express: Non- slip strips are packed with enamal- safe whitening agents to remove years of stains.
Fekkai Pre- Soleil Hair Mist: Pre-sun spray helps protect hair from sun damage, while also boosting shine.
Olay Active Botanicals Moisurizing Toner: Non- drying toner removes excess dirt and oil, leaving skin soft and fresh.
Olay Active Botanicals Day Lotion: Lightweight formula features hydra- complex and snow mushrooms to hydrate skin for up to 24 hours.

Full Size CoverGirl Super Sizer Mascara by Lashblast: Get up to 400 percent fuller lashes with the unique load and comb brush. 

I think I am most looking forward to using the mascara!

Secret Outlast

I was provided a sample of Secret Outlast Clear Gel in exchange for my honest review. 
The website says it goes on clear and stays clear, and 48 hour odor protection. The active ingredients are Aluminum Zirconium and Tetrachlorohydrex Gly. 
It retails at $3.97 at Walmart. 
I was torn by this deodorant. I loved the scent and the fact that it stayed Clear with no white marks. However, compared to my regular deodorant I do not feel it compared to protection. 
I may use Secret Outlast when I'm wearing black or dark colors but I think I'll stick to my usual deodorant for daily use. 
What's your favorite deodorant? Let me know!
