Caudalie Grape Water

So check this out. Have you ever heard of holy water? Yeah. Me too. See, it's in this bottle by Caudalie. What makes it holy you ask? I haven't a damn clue, other than the fact that it's grape water made of, idk grapes? This concoction has created such a smooth canvas of my skin since I've started using it. The full bottle retails for about $18 at Sephora. There's also a smaller bottle for $12. I call the small bottle a scam if you ask me. Just get the big bottle. I use this after cleansing my face, and before moisturizer. I use this in the morning, as I have a different night time regimen. There's no smell, and you may think you've wasted your money...until a week after using it all your pimples magically disappear, and you don't know why, but you're happy they're gone, and you've realized that it may be this, this....holy water aka Caudalie grape water mist. Buy it.

Neutrogena Hydrogel Masks #sponsored

Hello to all! So today I'm going to talk about the little spooky masks you've been seeing a lot of beauty bloggers walk around with lately. Some are DIY's and some are bought. Now what makes these masks different is the way they penetrate the skin. I'm no scientist, but I think the barrier it creates helps it absorb more efficiently into the skin???? Idk, blame the ever trending (absolutely necessary) k beauty department. I've tried several of these masks in my lifetime and some were amazing, while some were, meh. Couldn't tell the difference.

I received some samples from Neutrogena by way of BrandBacker. I was sent a radiance boost hydromask (which claims to brighten), a deep clean purifying hydromask (which claims to purify), and a deep clean purifying wash off clay mask ( which claims to....you guessed it! Deep clean).I'm going to get straight to the point with this, both hydromasks made my skin feel hydrated, and refreshed. A cool feeling is imparted while wearing these masks, however I couldn't notice any visible signs of brightening or purification with the masks as they claim. It may be that it's not noticeable with just one use, but as far as my experience with the hydrogel masks themselves, I didn't notice those results in particular.The clay mask is very soothing, and I noticed my pores looked smaller. I had less oil production, and it felt like a fluffy cushion being applied to my face when I put it on.

Keep in mind this is drugstore. So if you want something more potent, with quicker results in a shorter period of time, you may want to up the ante on your budget. These work perfect for a little in between pick me up, no scent, and very gentle on the skin.

I Dew Care Disco Kitten Illuminating Diamond Peel off Mask w/Silicone Pack Brush

Hello! Do people still read blogs anymore? Or is everyone out here commenting on YouTube videos? Idk. I don't wanna be the one who's like I'm old school but, I miss blogs! Vlogs are cool too, and nothing is the same forever, but this whole vlog and YouTube world has me a little less inspired and less motivated. I think I'm still going to blog forever no matter how big my blogging gaps are, ha! Enough ranting! Let's talk about *drum roll* this thing! This.... this mask! 
Ok so I'm walking through Ulta. Then bam! My eyeballs fall upon this thing. It's a peel off Mask inspired by Korean beauty. I was put off initially because the mask itself is in a tub. Like,whhhaaaa? I have to dig my fingers in there? Get all kinds of dust particles, and Dorito chip left under my finger nail in there? I look to the right of the mask to find this spatula looking device. 💡💡💡💡. Then I was like I don't need my fingers after all! So cool, I buy it and now im here. Blogging. 
First off, I must say the spatula is genius! No messiness. No long cleanup. Running my hands forever under the water to remove slimy mask residue from my hands. Secondly, it spreads the mask super evenly on your face so there's less waste, and a more even layer on your skin for consistent drying time.  
As for the mask itself. It really didn't WOW me. Its not horrible. It doesn't cause excruciating pain to remove. Its just no different than any regular drug store peel off mask. Its great for its exfoliating factor. It feels nice, it's relaxing, and my skin appeared a teeny bit brighter. Other than that. I didn't see fireworks. The mask itself retails for $22, and the spatula is $8. GET THE SPATULA! I know it's called something else... but let's be real. Its a spatula.
