Night time Skin Routine

Hello my lovely readers!!  I came across this website, and it is Tomoson.  If you're a blogger, I recommend you check out their website - http://www.tomoson.com.  They have all sorts of stuff for you to review.  Just sign up and you can start applying for products that you want to review.  They have prerequisites, you must read it first before you apply.

My first review from them is this two skin care products from Insta Natural.

This two skin care products are my two additional babies for  my skin.  I use this every night before going to bed.

The Deep Cleansing Facial Oil:

"Our Deep Cleansing Facial Oil contains the perfect blend of ingredients that melt away dirt, impurities and makeup without stripping the skin of its natural oils or disturbing the natural pH balance. This energizing blend of oils will gently clean your pores and remove dead skin cells, leaving your skin smooth and nourished."

The Key Ingredients:

+ Jojoba Oil
+ Olive Oil
+ Lavendar Essential Oil
+ Pink Grapefruit Essential Oil
+ Tamanu Oil
+ Hemp Oil
+ Sea Buckthorn Oil
+ Geranium Essential Oil

I use the Deep Cleansing Facial Oil whether I'm wearing makeup or not.  When I am wearing makeup, I do my usual routine (wash with my Belo soap, and pat dry).  Then, I will apply the Deep Cleansing Facial Oil with a cotton all over my face and then wash.  That way it gets rid off all the excess makeup and excess dirt on my face.  I do it this way because I tried doing it without washing my face with makeup on and the cotton was just too dirty.  I didn't want to apply too much oil on my face.  But, when I don't have any makeup on then I will just use the Deep Cleansing Oil and wash.

InstaNatural's Pure & Organic Rosehip Seed Oil:

"This powerful combination has many healing properties.  It can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, age spots, scars and stretch marks in addition to countless other benefits.  It also hydrates the skin, revives the natural color and tone, to give the skin a fresh and healthy look."

Their oil is a 100% organic and unrefined.

I apply this all over my face and neck and massage them.  I apply this after using the Facial Cleansing Oil.  I can tell every morning that my skin are hydrated and they look healthy and not dull.  The only bad thing I can say about this oil is the smell, but then again it is 100% organic.  If it works well with my skin then I'm all for it.

If you are interested on trying them out, you can definitely check them out on http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IP42FBA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MGXV2IS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Hello readers!  Today I am going to show you the amazing new shades of LA Girl Cosmetics glazed lip paints.  They are so  amazing!! The colors are so amazing!!

Gleam, Whimsical, Peony, Flirt, Elude, and Whisper

Tempt, Daring, Seduce, Feisty, Tango, and Tease

Now, as you can see in the photos, the colors are so bright and vibrant.  The top photos can be use as your everyday and at the bottom can be use for your night out.  They don't stay long, but they do leave some stain on lips, just like a lip stain does.  I noticed that Tease and Gleam are the only two that has shimmer.  They also have a mint to it.  I definitely love the nudes and in the bold shades, I love Tempt, Daring, and Seduce.

Even Glow Serum - Antioxidant Treatment Review

What is the Even Glow Serum?

"Our skin is damaged each day due to environmental pollutants, oxidative stress, and chemical laden cosmetic products. The amount of free radicals waging war on the skin quickly depletes our natural protective resources.

Our premier formulation is backed by scientific research into the efficacy of each of the natural ingredients we have carefully selected. 

Our proprietary blend of *skin super oils compliment our 20% Vitamin C base, leading to a powerful antioxidant treatment. Each natural ingredient was chosen to support and enhance Vitamin C’s efficacy on the skin, leading to more well-rounded serum to add to your daily skin care ritual.

Our Even Glow Serum will repair, refresh, and renew your skin; restoring evenness to your complexion, giving you an extra boost of confidence each time you look in the mirror."

What the ingredients does to our skin?

"ORGANIC ROSEHIP SEED OIL & ORGANIC SEA BUCKTHORN OIL - These oils promote skin hydration and lock in moisture to protect your skin from signs of aging and improve its beauty and youthfulness. Rosehip Oil specifically has been used in medical communities around the world for those with serious skin ailments and only recently has North America learned to embrace natural solutions from our ancestors. These two organic oils are full of antioxidants and therefore act as the perfect supporting cast for our best friend - Vitamin C

RESISTEM (Plant Stem Cells) - This provides the perfect mix of protection from stress-related aging and promotes skin detoxification. Resistem will help your skin regenerate faster while protecting it from environmental stressors.

HYALURONIC ACID(Botanical) - Holding up to 1000 times its weight in water and drawing moisture out of the environment and onto the surface of your skin ,there is not a more effective moisturizing agent on the market today. Penetrates deeply, and actives collagen production for a fresher, younger, firmer, and brighter complexion

GREEN TEA EXTRACT- The catechins in green tea are a potent antioxidant which also contribute to the overall anti-inflammatory and anti-irritant benefits of this ancient health and beauty secret."

What are the benefits of the serum?

"EVENS SKIN TONE: Vanquish dark spots and skin discoloration with this new generation Vitamin C Serum. Quickly refresh uneven and ill-textured skin with smooth, wrinkle-free skin that leaves you looking flawless and ageless.

INCREASES GLOW & RADIANCE:
Revitalize your skin with essential fatty acids that leave skin smooth and visibly brighter. Smooth skin capable of reflecting light will give your skin a youthful glow and a brilliant shine for that well-rested and refreshed look.

ABSORBS RAPIDLY:
Moisturizes skin due to the capacity of the hyaluronic acid to absorb water, thereby increasing fluid between cells, giving your skin a smoother and younger appearance. This intense water absorption means no more dry, peeling or cracked skin, even in extreme weather.

BOOSTS COLLAGEN PRODUCTION:
The presence of Organic Rosehip Seed oil to support Vitamin C increases collagen production so your skin retains the elasticity responsible for a youthful appearance and prevents skin sagging associated with aging. Enjoy smooth and supple skin that takes years off your appearance.

REDUCES WRINKLES & FINE LINES:
Reduce the visibility of fine lines and wrinkles with the help of our foundation 20 % Vitamin C. Special ingredients such us Hyaluronic Acid and Organic Sea Buckthorn oil work to plump up the skin, which reduces fine lines and wrinkles in the skin so it is smoother, clearer and younger."

Here is my first day using the serum

Here is my 5th day using the serum

I don't know if you can tell the difference on both the pictures, but I can.  I am in my 30's and my skin was getting dull.  I may not have signs of wrinkles, but I had some spots on my face from staying on the sun.  After using the serum for more than one day, I started noticing the changes.  It brightened up my skin and I just love the feeling of taking pictures without any makeup on.  I use the serum daily in the morning after washing my face and after applying my facial toner.  I also apply my moisturizer from Befine, which I got from my July Ipsy bag.  Just using this two combination is perfect.

If you are looking for an antioxidant treatment, I highly recommend you to go to http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HJD8NLY and http://www.valentiaskincare.com/.

Thank you

One of these collections, I received the Take Me Home Collection.  Inside, it contains 6 items: lipstick, nailpolish, eyeshadow palette, lip gloss, mascara, eye and body crayon, and a 5 decorator stencil.

Last First Kiss

Kiss You

Live While Were Young

I Wish

4+1 Eyeshadow Palette

Little Black Dress

"Last First Kiss" is a nude-pink sheer lipstick.

"Live While Were Young" is a multi-dimensional gold glitter nail varnish.

"4+1 Eyeshadow Palette" has 5 shades in "Back for you" which is a velvet creme,  "Change My Mind" is a peachy shimmer,  "C'mon, C'mon" is a soft taupe,  "Little Things" is a smoky brown, and "Take Me Home" is a  golden glitter creme.

"Kiss You" is a Liquilights Glow Gloss which is an orange glitter rush lip gloss that glows to neon yellow under UV light.

"I Wish" is a warm chocolate brown eye and body crayon.

"Little Black Dress" is a volumizing mascara in perfectly black.

Here are two pictures of myself with One Direction "Take Me Home" Collection.

I love how the "4+1 Eyeshadow Palette" shades are neutral.  It has a really good finish and perfect for everyday makeup.  The lipstick didn't really went with my skin tone, but I added the lip gloss on top of it and I think that it worked out just fine.  The mascara wasn't too bad, it didn't clump up my lashes and I think it did volumize my lashes a bit.  My lashes are just really short and thin.  I would usually wear false lashes, but I wanted to see how the mascara is on my lashes.  The only products I didn't use with this look are the pencil, nail polish, and the decorator stencils, which I forgot to take pictures of.

I hope that you'll try out their new makeup line and feel free to share it on my facebook page @conchico.  Intagram @conchico and tag me.  I would love to see the looks you did with their collections.
