I can see clearly

The award winning skin care line Derm e is sending us back to school and back to the rigmarole of Autumn blemish free, with their new Very Clear® skincare system. The Very Clear® skincare system consists of a cleanser,scrub, moisturizer, and spot blemish treatment.

After using the cleanser and moisturizer, I'm definitely intrigued by the texture of both and how they are able to cater to all skin types...like my face's half oily.... half normal situation.

Very Clear® skincare system Problem Skin Cleanser - This cleanser removes grime and pollution from skin and is safe enough to use twice a day. It doesn't leave any residue behind and is suitable for both oily and dry skin types. I liked how it took off all my make up and didn't sting my eyes!

Very Clear® skincare system Problem Skin Moisturizer - It can be used day or in the evening and helps unclog pores and soothes redness in the skin. This moisturizer is balance for most skin types and helps restore nutrients to the skin. The scent of tea tree, willow bark, rosewood, and lavender are a treat when applying to prevent future breakouts.
It's a struggle getting the right textured product on troublesome skin, but Derm e always seems to hit a home run with their paraben-free loveliness.

First

We like breakthroughs and we love those who raise the bar for the rest. Illuminare liquid mineral cosmetics is just that; leader of the pack! Founder Ruthie Molloy has paved the way for the rest by creating mineral makeup in liquid form - with SPF 21, that double both as foundation AND concealer.

I loved that the Extra Coverage stayed on all day and did not drip off my face. Most of all I loved being able to use it as a concealer under my recently (due to much late night callouping) dark circle stricken eyes. If you have not been using THIS, and have been out all night with little sleep, then cover up those circles and prep your beautiful face for makeup application with the same product. You will have the same results as me. Flawless.


The foundation/conceler that offers superior anit-aging protection agianst sun damage comes in three finishes:

Fantastic - A dewy meduim coverage that evens out skin tone and can be set with translucent powder for more of a matte look.

Ultimate All Day - This is an oil-absorbing and water resisting foundation that lasts ALL DAY even in the muggy weather. It will not disappear with perspiration and is perfect for water sports. I used it this week during our nevner-ending humidity festival here on the East Coast. It lasted all night.

Extra Coverage - A semi-matte finish aka...my favorite. It's great for blending in if you only have a few areas that need coverage, such as hyperpigmentation and redness.

Illuninare also has Blush, Mineral Lip Gloss and Eye Liner on their list of fab products. For a complete list of retailers click here. For more general information visit www.illuminarecosmetics.com

MyChelle

MyChelle Dermaceuticals is a combination of founder Myra Michelle Eby's name (pronounced "My Shell"). What it is not, is a combination of harmful chemicals or parabens. In fact MyChelle products are all 100% natural, eco-friendly, and cruelty-free!

I jumped at the chance to try three NEW products from her line. And all of them are three products you always here me raving about! Serums, Mists, and Eye care, Oh My!

Pumpkin Hydrating Mist - You know I love a good mist when I travel. The Pumpkin Hydrating Mist has a light pumpkin scent that is just enough. No worries. You will not go around smelling like thanksgiving dinner. It can be applied over makeup as well - this is why I like it for traveling on the driest bird in the sky.
With pumpkin juice and poppy extract leading the list of bio-available ingredients, it is no surprise that this mist provided the moisture my skin was needing on the plane, and through out the days since I started using it.

G2 Instant Firming Serum - Collagen boosting. I'm sold. But wait! This serum with a military sounding moniker is so much more. Goji berry fruit aids in instant firming and is combined with Argireline (safe muscle relaxer) and pomegranate to help inflamation. With long term use, this army of ingredients battle fine lines and wrinkles from future invasion.

Magnolia Fresh Eyes - Some of my favorite eye creams have done me wrong. Like getting in my eye and turning it red and itchy. Not Magnolia. Non-toxic Daisy Flower and Green Coffee work together to ward of puffiness and black circles safely!
