Hey guys!! So sorry about the long delay in new posts, i’m in the process of giving the site an exciting new revamp and I want to save the good stuff for later =) So stay tuned!
But I wanted to quickly critique some products that i’ve been using so you know if they’re worth investing in or not!
First up,
I absolutely love this yogurt mask by Korres. I have extremely oily skin, but at the same time sometimes the washes/serums I use to control my oil can be extra harsh and drying causing my skin to be both still oily and then dry and flaky at the same time! (can anyone say hot mess?? lol) So anywayyyy….just putting a regular moisturizer on top of my skin in this condition just makes a mess. This yogurt mask is the PERFECT balance! I slather it on for 10-15 mins and then rinse it off, and it repairs any patches of dry skin I had, with no oily residue. I have yet to try it with a sunburn but i’ve heard it does wonders. Very healing and soothing product!
Kimmy Rating= A (it would get an A+ if it came with candy or a bow lol, just putting that out there…)
I also wanted to share my experience with RevitaLash..
I originally bought the RevitaLash/RevitaBrow combo pack but I think since I moved to 94734 different locations (actual count) within the past year, the Brow serum got lost in the shuffle, so I bought the RenewBrow as its replacement- both very similar products.
RevitaLash is supposed to be the non-prescription alternative to Latisse, claiming to lengthen and darken eyelashes/brows. I actually have extremely long lashes naturally, but I feel like they’re invisible without a thickening mascara so I was curious to see if this would make them thicker/darker. I have to say I REGRET ever using this product. First of all, it made my eyes itch all day long, which I thought was just an unpleasant side effect, beauty is pain, right? So I kept using it. Then I noticed a few new strands of lashes sprouting where I never had them before, and excitedly continued to apply every night as directed. Then, I was disturbed to notice that a dark, discolored, smushy line on my eyelid began to form. Almost as if I had black eyeliner on and didn’t wash it all the way off, leaving a messy and not cute smudge. I haven’t applied this product in about 6 months and this dark smudge is still there!! I feel like its the equivalent of having dark circles on the upper lid- hate it. So anyway, once I noticed this I stopped using it immediately, and within a few days whatever new lashes that grew started to fall out, and brought my existing lashes with them. I ended up with thinner and fewer lashes than I started with and a little war wound to remember my experience!
The brow serum was just ineffective. I feel like it might boost regrowth of any hair that has been recently plucked or waxed but as far as areas that are always bare, it did nothing.
Kimmy Rating: D (as in DON’t) =)
Since I have probably sent someone in the Sephora family to college with all my experimenting (huge exaggeration) I got this Korres pack as a free gift:
So far, I have only tried the Guava lip butter, which is wonderfully smooth and luxurious! I will give the rest of the products a spin and let you know my verdict!
See you guys soon!!
