The INKEY List Caffeine Eye Cream & Heritage Store Rosewater Spray

 Hey guys!!!

These are the last couple of products from my skincare routine.

As for eye cream, a lot of people have different opinions about eye creams. Is it necessary or not in a skincare routine??

Honestly, for me it is and it isn't. Eye cream does have some different ingredients directed at the eye area, but you can use your moisturizer if you can't afford to buy another product. I love using eye cream especially when I am doing my makeup so my concealer can look good.

The INKEY List Caffeine Eye Cream

I have tried many eye creams and I have had favorites, but after learning about ingredients my favorites list is basically none.

This eye cream is a gel consistency, blends into the eye cream, and its only a little hydrating. I don't really get puffy eyes so I can't really test that claim. I can have my mom test it later on I will update this later once she tries it.

I use this right after toner. I use a a pea size amount on my ring finger, and massage it on my under eyes and my eyelids. Don't forget your eyelids. They can get dry too! 

Ingredients that stood out: Squalane(hydrating), Glycine Soja(Soybean) Extract(skin smoothing and and softening), Hyaluronic acid(draws moisture into the skin), Caffeine(reduces the look of puffiness), and Matrixyl 3000(a peptide that helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles).

I wouldn't repurchase this product because it wasn't anything that really stood out. It wasn't as moisturizing as I was hoping it would be.

If you are interested in trying this product you can get it from Sephora, and The INKEY List online.

Lastly, toner.

Another topic that a lot of people have different opinions. Is it necessary for a skincare routine??

For me, I believe you do need one. You can use toner as your exfoliation step, for more hydration, and balancing your PH of your skin. 

If you are using it as a way to remove any last bit of makeup that you missed then sorry to say you are not using the best makeup remover for you. This step is not for removing makeup. It is to hydrate or exfoliate your skin.

Heritage Store Rosewater Spray & Rosewater & Glycerin Hydrating Facial Mist


When I first tried this product I actually used the Rosewater Spray. 

This product is to calm the redness, tone, and soothe the skin. 

It only has two ingredients: Rosa Damascena(Hydroessential Rose) Oil(soothe and soften sensitive skin), and Vor-Mag Water(water that has been vortexed and magnetized to raise the energy to a higher vibration).

When I used this product my skin felt refreshed, and soothed.

Target made a mistake when I ordered online and they sent me the Rosewater & Glycerin.

This product is completely different to the Rosewater Spray. It is very hydrating and gives your skin a healthy glow. You can also use it to set your makeup, so it stays all day(haven't tested this claim yet).

It only has a couple of ingredients: Glycerin(locks in moisture), Vor-Mag Water(water that has been vortexed and magnetized to raise the energy to a higher vibration), and Rosa Damascena(Hydroessential Rose) Oil(soothe and soften sensitive skin).

Which one do I like best? I honestly like both. If I am at the store and I can't find the spray I can get the glycerin one and be ok with it. They are basically the same just one is glowy and one is not. 

I do notice that when I use the glycerin one, the moisturizer I apply afterwards blends better than when I use the spray one.

I use this product after I double cleanse.

I would definitely repurchase either one. It is holy grail.

You can get these at Ulta, Target, and Heritage Store online.

That is the end of my skincare routine!

Tip: always patch test your products behind your ear before applying it to your skin. This will show you if you have a reaction to any product.

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 only started following her

What Are AHA's??

 Hey guys!!! AHA's(Alpha Hydroxy Acids) is water-soluble, exfoliates dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, reveals healthy looking skin, and it is suitable for all skin types. It helps stimulate collagen, hydrates the skin, brightens the skin, helps lessen skin texture, helps with acne scars, signs of sun damage, and dark spots. There are different types of AHA's out there.  Glycolic Acid Glycolic acid is the most well known and is used in skin care and is also used by a professional in a chemical peel.  It is either used alone in a skincare product or combined with another AHA ingredients at concentrations of 5% and up. It helps to enhance skin's firmness and resilience while softening signs of sun damage.  The size of this acid allows it to penetrate the uppermost layers of the skin to reveal better looking skin. Also it hydrates the skin, and basically helps the skin retain the natural moisture. Glycolic acid can be derived from sugar cane, but they only use the

What are BHA's??

 Hey guys!!! The other day I spoke about AHA's and the different types of AHA's and now it is BHA's.  BHA's(Beta Hydroxy Acids) can get deeper into the pores to remove dead skin cells and excess sebum. It is oil-soluble so it allows it to penetrate deep into the pores and gently breaks up blockages that clogs your pores. That will help with lessening your acne and less visible pores. If you have blackheads, on your nose especially, it can help getting rid of them without damaging your skin like the Biore pore strips do. Also prevents new ones from forming. It could also help with Keratosis Pilaris(KP) in body washes or even body lotions/butters. BHA's are good for all skin types, but especially oily, acne prone skin. Salicylic Acid Salicylic Acid is the most well known out of all of them. It helps reduce acne by exfoliating the skin and keeping the pores clear. It helps with mild acne, blackheads and whiteheads, can help prevent future breakouts.  Tropic Acid, Tret
