June Favorites

June Favorites




COOLA Makeup Setting Spray SPF 30: I received this as part of my Summer 2019 FabFitFun box. It is a setting spray for after you apply your makeup. It helps to make the powders look less matte and adds an additional SPF 30. I think this is great for touchups when you want to refresh your makeup or reapply SPF.

Whish Exfoliating Foot Mask Coconut Milk + Verbena: I also received this as part of my Summer 2019 FabFitFun box. It is a foot mask. Apply before bed, leaving on 8-10 hours before washing off. And voila, smooth baby soft feet. I tend to apply this after a shower and after pumicing my feet so it is hard to say how exfoliating it actually is, but it definitely made my feet softer. It has a nice tropical scent.

OPI Chiffon'd of You: Part of OPI's classic bridal collection, this is a sheer white shimmer.

L'Oreal Revitalift 10% Vitamin C Serum: Been using this for a few weeks. This product best reminds me of the Kiehl's Powerful Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate. The ingredients are very similar although this has a lower concentration fo vitamin C at 10% while the Kiehl's clocks in at 12.5%. The texture is virtually identical though and I suppose it makes sense given both brands are owned by L'Oreal. Anyway, I find this doesn't burn my skin and it makes my skin feel very smooth owing to the silicones.

INKEY List Collagen Booster Serum: A competitor to The Ordinary's serums, this serum comes in a 1 ounce plastic squeeze bottle. At $10.99 a bottle, it is very affordable. Despite the "collagen" in the name, the product doesn't actually contain collagen. It contains hyraluronic acid and various peptides for firming the skin. I use this every other day when I am not using retinol.

TULA Hydrating Day & Night Cream: TULA is a brand utilizing probiotics in its skincare line. The cream is intend for both day and night use. I find it light and nicely hydrating for the summer weather. It is fragrance free too.

That's it for my June favorites.
