Let’s talk beauty products. Let’s talk Amazon. Let’s talk beauty and fast! See how I did that? You prime members get it. There are so many skin care products on the market that it’s nice to hear what has worked and not worked for others. Today, I am sharing what has worked for me and what I consider Essential Beauty Products.
Blackhead Removal Mask
Amazon describes the Blackhead Removal Mask:
- Pores become instantly clearer after use as the mask sticks and pulls out blackheads, dead skin and dirt
- Minimizes the appearance of pores by removing blackheads and sebaceous filaments.
- Skin texture appears smoother and brighter.
- Helps remove dead skin, dirt and grime
My nose and chin get clogged up pretty fast and this works wonders. Dries quickly so you are not waiting around forever for it to dry. I highly recommend to keep your skin looking fresh and clear. It can be a little painful when you pull it off…so if you have sensitive skin beware. What has worked for me is that if I put it on a little thicker it doesn’t hurt as much.
Purifying Foaming Face Cleanser
I have tried a lot of face cleansers in my day and this Purifying Foaming Face Cleanser is my favorite so far. After using this daily for a few months it is still about 1/3 full. A little goes a long way. Great for sensitive skin and doesn’t burn your eyes yet, takes all the makeup off with no problem. You will love this cleanser for sure.
Eye Masks
The first time I tried these Eye Masks they had come in my FabFitFun box. Being prone to dark circles under my eyes, these little gold babies did the trick in one session. They are cool and feel so refreshing. Mr. Tom likes them, too! Leave them to do their magic for 20 minutes or more (you won’t want to take them off) and you will see the difference immediately. Amazing! I have been using them once every 2 weeks. They will always be in my beauty regime.
Foot Exfoliating Mask
Don’t have time to go get a pedicure and desperately need those little feet scrubbed? These Foot Exfoliating Masks will do the trick. Just put your feet up for awhile…how about with a good book and a glass of wine? Any excuse for a glass of wine. All the dead skin will peel off in a matter of days and you will be left with baby feet once again.
Castor Oil
There are so many fabulous uses for Castor Oil it is amazing! My mom used to tell me stories of drinking this stuff by the gallon (not that much, but you get my drift) trying to go into labor with her babies. Here is a link for all the wonderful things you can use this castor oil for. I use it under and around my eyes every night to help keep the dark circles and lines away. Putting it on your eyelids helps you to sleep and night and also helps those delicate little eyelashes to grow strong and healthy. It’s supposed to help the hair to grow also, so Mr. Tom is putting it on his hairline each night. I will let you know if it works. What would you use castor oil for?
Eyelash Serum
Speaking of those eyelashes. I have been doomed with the shortest little eyelashes ever! I would try and curl them and the eyelash curler would just laugh at me and say, “are you kidding me?”. Since I have been using this Queen Pegasus eyelash serum my eyelashes have grown and they are visible and look so pretty with mascara. Bonus, it doesn’t cost you hundreds of dollars. Also, they don’t turn your eyes dark. I tried another popular serum and my daughter asked why my eyes looked bruised. I did some researching and yes, that is a side affect. No thank you!!! This has not been and issue with this serum at all.
Simply Venom Cream
Ladies…I am super picky about my moisturizer. I cannot say enough about Simply Venom Creams. My skin feels so good and I have seen the fine lines in my forehead disappear. It is smooth and creamy and 2 pumps for your morning routine and 2 at night is all it takes. Here is an excerpt from their site:
Simply Venom is an advanced age-defying skincare line created by two anesthesiologists inspired by the power of Temple Viper snake venom. The doctors infused a powerful peptide complex with proven collagen-forming ingredients that plump the skin while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
The outcome is Simply Venom: Skincare that delivers effects similar to medical-grade injectables, without the risks. Empowering you to age Simply and Defiantly.
I’m a lifer on this one. Snake venom that gives you the effects of an injectable? Hallelujah! Check out their site and you can even order some samples that will give you about 7 good doses so you can see for yourself. Tell them Cindy sent you.
Daily Vitamins
Garden of Life Vitamins. Yes! Beauty starts from the inside and it is very important to get a good quality vitamin in your system. After much researching, even looking into what some health spas recommend for nutrition, these are the ones they prescribe for their clients. The vitamins are in the raw stage so your body can process them completely.
