Natural Logic (wonderful find from Etsy)

NATURALLOGIC

Hey Guys, so recently I have been on Etsy looking at organic skin care and I came across the store called Natural Logic. They got over 5000 5 stars reviews so I thought maybe It is worth looking into. 

Here is their Link:    Natural Logic

So Since a lot of people have been raving about them so I decided to go on and try since I really don't have much of a skin care routine other then using my Lush Fresh Pharmacy facial bar. Therefore i went ahead and purchased a Daily Moisturizer, Clarifying Serum and Toner. 

This is the Daily Moisturizer, which claim to be for normal, oily to problematic skin. It is extremely lightweight formula powerful enough to balance skin's sebum levels and it is gentle enough for frequent use, making it an excellent daily moisturizer. It soothes, hydrates, balances, renews, brightens, protects and calms skin, while supplying it with vital nutrients and antioxidants.

 This special combination of plant, seed, nut, vegetable & essential oils absorbs deep into the layers of the skin to deep cleanse, soften & moisturize. This 100% active ingredient clarifying serum works throughout the day, working with the skin to reach a common goal of balance.This serum is beneficial for all skin types. Ideal for Combination, Oily, Dry, Lackluster, Blemish Prone skin.

  Balance is a highly concentrated facial toner, offering balanced oil production, deep cleansing of pores, calming of redness & irritation and antioxidant power all in one potent skin tonic. A holistic blend of floral essences, botanical & skin quenchers, it does more than simply adjust the pH of your skin or remove lingering dirt or makeup.

After received on Thursday I started using it right a way, first off, if you love the smell of organic shampoo or shower gel you will love the scent. It is very light, clean and floral. Just like what everyone say the clarifying oil is so easily absorb into my skin leaving my skin feeling soft and plump. I have sensitive, oily, combination and acne prone skin and  surprisingly the clarifying oil did not leave me with oily skin. MY skin literally absorb it all!!!! And the Daily Moisturizer its also beautifully scented and it is easily absorbed into my skin also I use the oil at night before bed and the moisturizer in the morning before I put my hourglass primer which  I am currently loving! The OIL CONTROL is amazing!!!!! I do have a lot of redness on my cheek and some sun spot. I can see that my redness on my cheek is lighten and I dont have to put as much foundation as I used to 4 days ago!

I will keep you guys updated after finishing these products and give you guys another updated review on this brand. I really do hope you guys find the time to go try it out and purchase from them. I do believe that you dont always have to use those major name brand skin care. This is a rare find and I am so glad that I found this. If i continue to see the positive result that I am seeing this will be a life long products that I will continue to re-purchase.

XOXO

   

MY New Found LOVE Nail Tek Foundation II

Nail Tek Foundation II

Nail Tek Foundation 2 for soft, peeling nails. Fills unsightly ridges and nail damage while healing and strengthening the natural nail. This unique base coat is a special blend of strengthers, conditioners, micro-fibers and natural fillers. Nail Tek Foundation creates a superior surface that greatly increases polish adherence so the manicure that lasts and lasts. Nail Tek Foundation smooths uneven nail surfaces and masks nail imperfections while helping to grow healthy, beautiful nails.

Let me tell you a bit of background why this is by far my favorite nail rescue.. So during April I decided to go get one of those "Fake Nails" since all those posts on Pinterest and Instagram you see all those insanely beautiful perfect looking nail arts. Of course the first week I couldn't stop looking at my fingers!!!! Even the rings on my fingers look shinier. Like some insane lady just checking my fingers out and you know doing one of those "nail tap" at the grocery store desperate for the cashier to compliment on those 40 bucks nails! But you know beautiful things never last as I learn since very little. My real nails start growing and of course I got to keep it up so by the end of June I have rack up almost total of 500 bucks on just keeping up with these nails that are not even mine... When I finally took them off the horrid I face I don't even wanna relive that day! It was terrible those thin brittle nails and not to speak of how painful they were... I can't even peel off a sticker if I try without breaking my nail completely off my finger! I was in desperation to fix this like YESTERDAY! Of course all you ladies out there we all know there is no such thing as miracle fix in a day... We can't do that with anything in life and if someone tell you that you can they are lying to you! So I have try many nail rescue from OPI, NAILTIQUES and ESSIE... all disappointed me. Until recently I came across Nail Tek Foundation II, it is super easy to apply first off and it dry instantly with a matte finish it makes your nail look beautiful and natural in the same time it also help rebuilt your nail with all the nutrients it desperately need. Trust me ladies we all have those moments when we falling in to doing those acrylic nails for a wedding or for some special occasions and to end up with thin brittle nails, the after effect that the nail salon sure don't mention to you. Hope this help those ladies out there who are in desperate need to rescue their nail and bring them back to their natural stage. I put it on every other day and at the end of the week i use a nail polisher to removed everything and I do it all over again for a month my nail are at its optimal stage. I love it, definitely try it out and let me know what you guys think. 

Never Underestimate the Power of Thought~

MY LUSH FAVORITE CLEANER!!!!!

Year of 2015 I promised myself to take better care of myself, meaning better skin care, better hair care and better body care. First order of business is to go to LUSH a fresh handmade cosmetics company that recently everyone is raving about. I have always been a fan of LUSH but since this year I have a goal to use more cosmetics that are good for your skin, therefore I took a trip to LUSH at my local mall. Here are some of my favorite face cleaner finds from the store. ( I will do another blog on their wonderful OH-LA-LA soaps)

I have used this cleaner for almost a year now and I got to say it is my favorite cleaner by far, I have oily and combination skins and it really helps minimize oil through out the day and I barely breaks out anymore. Fresh Farmacy contains chamomile extract to calm, rose and lavender to soothe dry patches and tea tree to clear up any blemishes. If you do have oily and combination skin I suggest you to try this out!

 This is one of the new finds, when I was at the store the sales are highly recommending this product and now I have used it I know why. First of its smell like heaven in a pot, it is minty and fresh and yummy smelling. This deep-cleansing face and body mask is made with China clay and fresh peppermint to reach deep down and pull dirt from your pores, giving you that delightful tingly-clean sensation. Add loads of aduki beans to exfoliate flaky or dry skin, vanilla absolute to calm redness and honey to soothe. IT is absolutely the best mask to use when you feel that your pore is clogged up and you need some extra help to calm the skin. It is also self-preserving so it is extra good for you skin and no chemical added.

This is one of my least favorite out of all the skin cleaner I got. I do love what it does to your skin with black sugar and charcoal gently exfoliate and absorb excess oils to leave dull, oily or acne-prone skin feeling fresh but for some reason I can't get pass the charcoal smell, it is quite strong but if you can get pass the smell this is a wonderful cleaner. I do used it from time to time when I need exfoliate my skin, it does what it say leaving your skin feel fresh and clean.

This is my journey to better skin 2015 and using less chemicals on my skin. What I love about this company also is that they do give back a lot on charities and also they don't harm any ANIMALS during the process of coming up with all these AMAZINGGGGG handmade cosmetics products. Lets support them in fighting this good cause. Say NO to ANIMAL TESTING!
