The Power Couple ~ Purifying Daily Detox Scrub & Purifying 2-in-1 Charcoal Mask by Derma-E

*Purifying Daily Detox Scrub & Purifying 2-in-1 Charcoal Mask by Derma-E

Derma-E is one of my top favorite skincare brands.  I always feel good about using one of their products because they are across the board ethical.  Plus, it doesn't hurt that the products themselves are amazing.  Speaking of their amazing products...I can't say enough amazing things about these two gems, the Purifying Daily Detox Scrub & the Purifying 2-in-1 Charcoal Mask!

I'm a fan of just about anything that has Activated Charcoal in it, especially skincare.  I find it works really well at removing impurities from my oily and sometimes temperamental skin.  So, that being said, I already knew these products were going to be a win for me.

*Purifying Daily Detox Scrub

I loved the Purifying Daily Detox Scrub the first time I tried it.  I loved how it not only left my skin feeling clean, soft and smooth but I really loved how it also left my skin feeling refreshed and revitalized.  Obviously, as a beauty blogger I test out a lot of products but I have find myself reaching for this scrub over and over again and constantly recommending it.  It has definitely earned a spot on my re-purchase list!

Formulated with powerful minerals and natural toxin fighters (ingredients) I think this scrub is a game changer.  It's is the perfect daily cleanser for someone with combination or oily, blemish-prone skin because it helps detox, decongest and heal the skin.  However, I also think someone with normal to dry skin would benefit from this scrub.  If your skin is looking a little dull this would be a great product to use a couple of times a week just to get rid of dead, flaky skin and environmental pollutants.  Just a little is all you need to reveal fresh and glowing skin!

*Purifying 2-in-1 Charcoal Mask

As a self professed mask addict this Purifying 2-in-1 Charcoal Mask does everything a good mask should do (in my opinion).  With ingredients that help clear away dirt, oil, bacteria and other grime this mask will instantly make skin look and feel clean and fresh without leaving it feeling dry.  Say goodbye to congested pores and dead skin because it will all be washed away as you remove the mask.  After just one use you will notice your skin will be softer, smoother and renewed!  I would recommend this Purifying 2-in-1 Charcoal Mask for all skin types as well.  If your skin is really oily use it several times a week to keep pores clear, if you have dry skin then use it just once a week to help keep skin in check and give it a healthy glow!  

This Purifying 2-in-1 Charcoal Mask is another Derma-E product to add to my re-purchase list!

Make sure to check out the www.dermae.com for more information on these and other Derma-E products.  As always Derma-E  products are 100% vegan, cruelty-free, paraben free, sodium lauryl sulfate free, petrolatum free, mineral oil free, artificial color free, gluten free, soy free and even GMO free!  LOVE!!

Probiotic Concentrate & Probiotic Complex by Columbia Skincare

*Probiotic Concentrate & Probiotic Complex by Columbia Skincare

I am a firm believer in Probiotics and take a Probiotic supplement just about everyday.  However, putting Probiotics on my face is a totally new concept to me.

I can safely say I have never tried anything quite like the Probiotic Concentrate & Probiotic Complex by Columbia Skincare.  When I think of these two products two words immediately pop into my head.  Luxurious and skin loving.  Okay, technically that's three words.  Nonetheless, these two products are heavenly.

I have been using these Probiotic products for about three to four weeks now and my both my skin and I have fallen in love.  The Probiotic Concentrate is a fantastic serum that is comprised of probiotics (good bacteria) plant stem cells and peptides.  I like to apply this serum on my face as part of my morning and evening routine after cleansing and toning.  It immediately sinks into the skin leaving it feeling soft and hydrated.  The Probiotic Complex is a nice thick cream and also contains the probiotics (good bacteria) plant stem cells and peptides.  Since this cream is on the thicker side I usually only apply it to my face in the evening after the serum.  However, I LOVE to use this in the morning and evening on my neck and decollete.  It's a lovely cream that is intensely hydrating and soothing.  My skin is more soft, smooth and supple immediately after using these products.  It really is instant gratification and I highly recommend both!

As a special offer for my readers Columbia Skincare is offering a FREE Columbia Restorative Hydrating Cream or Columbia Ultimate Skin Repair Cream, a $38.00 value with the purchase of either product.  Use code: ProbioticGift at checkout.

The Probiotic Concentrate retails for $190.00.  To purchase or for more information make go to columbiaprobiotics.com.  Use code: ProbioticGift at checkout.

The Probiotic Complex retails for $165.00.  To purchase or for more information make go to columbiaprobiotics.com.  Use code: ProbioticGift at checkout.

Pomegranate Shimmer Light Lotion by Juicy Skin Care

*Pomegranate Shimmer Light Lotion by Juicy Skin Care

Summer is just around the corner and Spring is the perfect time to start bringing out some sparkle!

Adding a bit of shimmer can really be done year round but for me Spring and Summer are usually the only times that I want to be drawing attention to myself.  We have a pretty harsh winter where I live so I tend to put on a little winter weight and I definitely don't concern myself with tanning!  So, it's time to start shedding that winter weight, bringing out the self-tanner and bringing some shimmer back into my life!

This Pomegranate Shimmer Light Lotion by Juicy Skin Care adds the perfect amount of shimmer just where you want it.  Personally, I like to add a little to my collar bone area and shoulders.  I've even put a little on my brow bone and used it as a highlighter!  The possibilities are endless...

I could see using this as all over body shimmer come summertime.  I also like that it's buildable.  For a little sparkle just add a thin layer.  If you really want to shine just add some more!  It makes skin look smooth, soft and silky and it has a lovely Pomegranate scent.  This is definitely a spring/summer MUST HAVE!

You can find this Pomegranate Shimmer Light Lotion by Juicy Skin Care over on juicyskincare.net or you can also find it on Amazon.com...

Essential Oil Diffuser by REIDEA ireidea.com

*Essential Oil Diffuser by REIDEA

I am obsessed with this Essential Oil Diffuser by REIDEA!  

I've own a few other Essential Oil Diffusers that I really like but this one is by far my favorite.  First and foremost I really love how it looks.  I love the wood grain look that goes perfectly with my decor and I also love the style of it.  I also like how this Diffuser is a bit bigger than my other Diffusers.  It stands at 8.45 inches tall and holds 400ml of water/oil which is enough keep my favorite scent going for about 12 hours.

This Essential Oil Diffuser by REIDEA is noise free and features a water sensing auto shut-off function.  You can also adjust the settings to a high or low mist depending on the size of the room and choose from 7 different colored mood lights and make them dim or bright to create a customized ambiance.

If you are in the market for a Diffuser I cannot recommend this one enough!

Whitening Mask Sleeping Pack by Shouvy

*Whitening Mask Sleeping Pack by Shouvy

Asian skincare is all the rage and I must admit I've jumped on the bandwagon myself!  While I've tried some sheet masks that seemed to be more gimmicky than anything else for the most part there is a reason why everyone raves about Asian skincare products, they work!

This Whitening Mask Sleeping Pack by Shouvy is definitely one of those products.  Developed with potent skin lightening ingredients this mask can deliver results after just a few uses.  

I've been testing this out on my decollete area where I have most of my hyperpigmentation and I noticed a that some of my more prominent spots were distinctly lighter in appearance after just three nights of continued use.  Not only did it help lighten up my hyperpigmentation but it also left my skin feeling soft and hydrated.  Plus, I love a good sleeping mask.  It's so easy to just put it on before bed and not have to worry about rinsing it off.  Besides, who doesn't love waking up looking better than you did before you went to bed!

I would recommend this skin lightening mask for anyone dealing with pigmentation issues.  However, double check the ingredients list below to make sure you don't have any sensitivity issues and I always recommend doing a test patch with these types of products as well.

MCT Oil Powder by Mr Ros

*MCT Oil Powder by Mr Ros

Should you be consuming MCT Oil?  I think the easy answer is yes.  Even if you are relatively healthy you can reap the benefits of MCT Oil.  MCT Oil is a good type of fat that takes minimal effort from the liver to convert into a fuel source for the body and has multiple health benefits.

If you are looking to loose weight or even if you just want to maintain your current weight you will find MCT Oil beneficial.  MCT Oil can help you fill full longer and help raise your metabolic rate which can translate into weight loss for some people.

Above and beyond using MCT Oil for weight loss there are even more significant benefits like improved energy levels, mood, heart health, it can aid in digestion and nutrient absorption and it even has antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties.

This MCT Oil Powder by Mr Ros is made out of sustainable Non-GMO Rapeseed Oil & Non-GMO Palm Oil and comes in a powder form.  The powder doesn't really have any taste to it so that means it can easily be added to your coffee, tea or smoothies without effecting the flavor.  It's the perfect addition to a healthy lifestyle!
