CoTz Face Prime & Protect Tinted SPF 40

 Hey guys!!

Now for the most important product in my skincare routine. My sunscreen. 

I have been looking for my perfect sunscreen for a while and there was a lot of misses for me. I would break out sometimes the day I use it or a couple days after. 

I actually almost gave up in finding a sunscreen because I kept spending money and finding nothing that worked for me. After I spoke to MadiHearts during a consult she recommended this sunscreen to me.

CoTz Face Prime & Protect Tinted SPF 40

As I mentioned in my previous sunscreens post, I realized that for my skin type physical/mineral sunscreens are best for me. 

 The brand CoTz is reef friendly, water resistant, preservative free, no animal testing, mineral protection, and gluten free.

What intrigued me about this product was that it is a sunscreen and a primer in one(I don't believe primers are necessary). I tested the sunscreen out first and after a couple weeks I decided to apply makeup on top. My skin looked flawless! My skin, even with makeup, had not looked this good in the longest time. 

The texture of this sunscreen is very thick, whipped mousse-like, and silicone-based. It blends out translucent and it sets to a matte finish. Once the product sets my skin feels so soft.
 
Since it sets into a matte finish I don't get too oily throughout the day. It layers really well when I reapply more after a few hours. They recommend every 2 hours.

The tint doesn't add coverage, but my skin feels smooth, soft, and makeup applies beautifully on top.

Ingredients that stood out: Active Ingredients: Zinc Oxide (3.8%), and Titanium Dioxide(8%). 

Finally, after the longest time, after using this sunscreen for exactly a month, I can say that this is my holy grail sunscreen. 

If you are interested in trying this product it is available on CoTz, and Ulta online.

What are some of you guys favorite sunscreens??

Rose and Ben Beauty Brushes

 Hey guys!! I haven't done a beauty post in a while and I was in the mood to do one because I am very excited to talk about these! I started follow Rose on IG roseandben  thanks to my friend and I have been loving her content. You can see the passion she has for makeup. I love that she posts on IG stories almost everyday doing a tutorial or talking about her fav products.  I have actually purchased and few of her recommendations and 99% of the products I have bought have become staples in my collection.  When she announced she was coming out with a brand  Rose and Ben Beauty  I just knew it would be brushes because she would always be using prototypes in her tutorials. I trusted her judgment in products soooo I bought most of the collection.  Aren't these brushes beautiful?? When I first got the brushes I felt the bristles and they were so soft. The quality of the bristles and even the handles feels so luxurious. I love the color of the handles too. I ...

BeautyBlender VoxBox

Hey guys!!!! It is time for another VoxBox, but this time it is the BeautyBlender VoxBox!! I actually think this was the one box that had me SHOOK! I knew I was getting this in the mail, but I had no idea how much I was getting if that makes sense. I was so surprised that I spoke to my husband about it and he could give no shits about it haha. I received SIX beautyblenders, pink textured cleansing mit, and a beautyblender blendercleanser solid. I will not have to buy a new beauty blender for 2 years maybe!! I am so thankful for Influenster and BeautyBlender for sending this to me complimentary for testing purposes. Although, it was sent to me for testing purposes I have already tried the beautyblender and the cleanser solid before and I was loving them!  I use the beautyblender for foundation, concealer, cream highlight and bronzer, and powder to set my undereyes and face. I prefer this over using a brush because it makes your skin look so flawless.  ...

Nails of the Week

Hey guys!!! I decided to talk about what is on my nails for the week. I will be doing this a couple times a month since I like to change my nail colors frequently! I used China Glaze polish in the color Frostbite and on top i used the Wet n Wild Wild Shine glitter polish. I am not too sure what the name of it is, but it is my favorite glitter polish to use. This was my first time using a China Glaze nail polish, but I was kinda disappointed. I had to apply the color about 3-4 times for it to be this pretty bright color. If you don't have time to sit there and apply this many coats and wait for it to dry I don't recommend this color.  The upside about this nail polish is that it lasts on your nails without chipping. Normally mine start chipping after 3 days because I wash my hands so many times a day since I work with kids. Right now its the 6th day and I only have minor chipping. Maybe I will try another color in this brand soon. You guys have any recommendatio...
