May Favorites

 May Favorites: St. Ives Green Tea Cleanser, Plus White 5 Minute whitening gel, Annabelle Skin True Foundation, Maybelline One by One Mascara, Elizabeth Grant Biocollasis complex, e.l.f Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder, Rimmel Lasting Finish blush, Natural Bronzer.
I use St. Ives Green Tea cleanser everyday morning and night, and love it! I already can tell that my redness has gone down.
I started whitening my teeth for my wedding, even though I love using the crest white strips 30 mins is just to long, I rather do 5 mins and get the same results. I can only use it once every 2 days since my teeth are over sensitive (not from this product)
And of course my favorite foundation of all times Annabelle I'm gonna need to buy more soon almost out, I use it everyday and I love that you can control how much coverage you want.

This is the other items I use on my face pretty much everyday.
e.l.f bronzer in Luminance for my highlighter, gives you a nice glow. Rimmel Blush in pink rose, great for the summer months, it gives you a nice hint of pink. Then Rimmel Natural Bronzer in sun light, a nice bronzer without shimmer, I use it to contour my cheeks and neck and it's so natural that you can't even tell that I'm wearing it.

Maybelline one by one mascara I like to use this before I use a volume mascara, it separates each lash and makes them look fuller. I also love that it's my only waterproof mascara.
Elizabeth Grant Biocollasis complex I received this in my Luxe Box for May, I use it only in the morning and you only need two pumps and it does your whole face and neck. I don't even need a moisturizer after using this.

Review- St. Ives Naturally Clear Green Tea Scrub





This has to be one of the best scrub's I have tried in all my life!!
I found this when I bought the cleanser in Walmart for $4.77.
I use this daily in the evening and my skin is so soft afterwards. The scrub is way better then the Apricot scrub, this scrub has micro srubbers, it's perfect for sensitive skin. It doesn't burn or feel like your scrubbing your skin off.
It has the same smell as the cleanser, and come is a tube.
I even used it as a mask and left it on for 10 mins and my skin looked healthier and a few of my blemishes went down in size.

My Rating Scale 1-5 (1-the worst 5-the best)
Quality- 5
Packaging- 5
How long does it stay on- you can leave it on for 10 mins or wash it off right away

Would I buy it again- YES
Price- $4.77 CAN


Overall- This is a perfect scrub for sensitive skin or people who don't like harsh scrubs
Where to buy- I found mine at Walmart, but wherever St. Ives is sold
(It may not be available in every country you may have to wait like I had too)

Review- St. Ives Naturally Clear Green Tea Cleanser




I wanted to try this new cleanser from St. Ives since I seen it on their website, but it wasn't available in Canada yet. So when I was at Walmart I found it and bought it without thinking.
I'm so glad I did!
This is a gentle cleanser perfect for sensitive skin, it has a nice lather and you really don't need alot of product.
It doesn't smell like green tea, but believe me it's in there.
I noticed a huge difference in the redness and blemishes since I started using it. I use it twice a day.

My Rating Scale (scale 1-5 1-the worst, 5- the best)
Quality- 5
Packaging- 5 (love the pump)
How long does it stay on- well until you wash it off
Would I buy it again- YES!
Price- $3.77 CAN
Overall- This is a great cleanser and really does work!
Where to buy- I found it at Walmart, but I'm sure wherever St. Ives is sold you can find it.
