Derma E Charcoal Scrub + Face Mask | A Review

My most viewed + shared blog post is all about my skincare routine and how I cleared my skin. While my routine is has remained somewhat consistent, I'm always looking for new products to work into my rotation as my skin is always changing. I've always been a fan of charcoal products for deep cleaning so I was very excited to see that Derma E launched a new scrub and mask!

The Answer to Your Dry Skin Troubles | LUSH Dream Cream

Hello, hello! Welcome back! It's officially Winter as of this week and my skin sure has been feeling it. It has been so dry thanks to the back and forth in temperature we've been having up in the North East and none of the lotions or creams I had were doing anything.

Do We Have A Dupe? Valentia Skin Detoxifying Mask vs. Palmetto Derma Antioxidant Mask

Hey, hey! Today's post is the newest in my series "Do We Have A Dupe?" and I'm really excited about it! This post will be focusing on detoxifying face masks. I fell in love with my Palmetto Derma mask when I got it in a BoxyCharm, but I didn't fall in love with the price ($64). I love how it makes my skin feel, but I've been dreading finishing it up because I know I can't afford a $64 face mask. 

This is where the Valentia Detoxifying Clay Mask comes in! I knew I had to compare these two, as this one is cheaper, but they both have similar promises and ingredients that will help detoxify and rejuvenate your skin.

Dry, Flaky Skin Remedy!

It's that time of year where your skin decides to become chapped and flakey. As you know from my last post, I just came back from a vacation in Mexico and my skin is nicely bronzed. The one issue is, I didn't prepare to come back home to almost freezing weather and my skin went into shock. Between some sunburn and frigid temps, my skin bugged out and became extremely dry and flakey.

I never experienced dryness like this before so I was kind of freaking out. I couldn't wear makeup without my face looking SO cakey and when I woke up on Saturday morning, my skin looked like it was all about to peel off. Luckily, I ended up at my neighbors house in the morning and she saw my face and knew exactly what to give me... almond oil.

How I Finally Cleared My Skin!

I was fairly fortunate when it came to teenage skin. I didn't have acne, though I had my fair share of breakouts. They were mostly hormonal and I'd only break out around ~that time of the month.~ I figured once I grew out of my teens, my skin would clear but boy, was I wrong.

My skin became worse as I got older & early this yea my breakouts were more consistent than ever. I knew I had to do something so I started to do some research and found my holy grail products (mostly drugstore!!) Keep reading to see what they are!
