Week 1 Results

So in my previous post, I'm on the hunt for finding a skincare regimen that works for me. I'm going to be doing this for about four weeks and hopefully find something that works. Here is a recap on the products I used during week one:

Daytime: Cleanser- Nastassja
                Toner- Apple Cider Vinegar
                Serum- Epionce
                Eye Cream- Yes To Cucumbers
                Moisturizer- Korres

Nighttime:Coconut Oil
                 Cleansing Water
                 Eye Cream and Moisturizer(same as daytime)

The first day of the new routine, my face did break out a little but calmed down after rubbing an ice cube across it. My skin felt like it was burning, maybe because I was doing something different. On Wednesday, I did exfoliate at night with Sukiface Exfoliating Cleanser (it is in my August Monthly Favorites post). On Thursday, I realized I ran out of my cleanser and used a cleanser called Menza that I received in one of my boxes. I really did not like the way it made my face feel after using it. It just made my face feel a bit dry and I just didn't like how my face felt. I went to Target and purchased L'oreal Ideal Clean Foaming Gel Cleanser to replace my other one. I did not wash my face that night for some reason, I think I was really tired( Good thing I didn't have on makeup that day). I do love how my skin felt smooth and really clean.I did not use a mask during this week but will in future weeks.  I did have a few flare ups but overall, I did like the results. I feel that I don't really need to use a serum. I guess I need to do more research on what serums do and if I really do need to use it with my skincare routine.

Week 2 has started and the next post will list everything I will be using!

Sometimes its hard.....

You know when you keep thinking of something and you just feel like you have to get it out? That was me before sitting down to write this post. I had something else planned to write but I kept thinking...sometimes its hard and it just evolved from there. We all heard the sayings, life isn't fair, life is hard and so on. Sometimes life can be hard but we don't experience it for long. There are so many things that I want to do but I know I can't do a million things at once. I can't just pick and go anymore, I'm someone's parent now. There are times I want to but I know things have to be planned out now. I will get to those place I want to go, just have to be patient and plan it out. It seems like we focus so much on what is hard about life that we forget about the easy stuff. We forget sometimes about all the good things that happen and to be grateful for getting through those rough patches. You may not like your living situation but you have a roof over

Make Beauty Review*

Happy Friday beauty lovers! I hope you have been enjoying Winter again lol! I hope Mother Nature gets it together soon lol. Today I am bringing you another review powered by BrandBacker! *I was sent these products for testing purposes and this is my opinion after using. Let's get into the reviews! *Powered By BrandBacker* I was pretty excited when I was picked for this campaign. I have tried a Make Beauty eyeshadow before and loved it. Honestly, I was expecting the samples to be a little bigger. I was a little disappointed in the lipstick sample, it was hard to use. It kept breaking when I was trying to apply it. Make Beauty is a very new company to me that I was introduced to through Birchbox.  They have just about everything from eyeshadows to contour kits. They also have a line for skincare as well. Alabaster Eyeshadow This shadow on the Make Beauty site is described as a soft eggshell with peach undertones. This shadow is a matte and can be used as a brow
