My Secret Weapon… Aquaphor Healing Ointment!

Published on by danamaye1 Comment

Aquaphor Advanced Healing Ointment

With the harsh winters in North Dakota, my hands become cracked and chapped very quickly. I have tried several products, and found a clear winner -Aquaphor Advanced Therapy Healing Ointment.

The ointment has no fragrance or dyes, which can irritate chapped skin. Unlike a lotion that quickly sinks into the skin, this ointment is greasy and takes a while to sink in. Don’t let this deter you though. It really works!

It takes only a couple days to restore my hands to good condition, and works great as a preventative measure. I like to apply it at night before I go to bed.

This may not be the most glamorous product to review, but sometimes you need a workhouse product to do the job. If your hands get chapped like mine, definitely try this out!

You can get the ointment on Amazon for $6.33.

XOXO,

Keep Your Lips Smooth with… Eco Lips Brown Sugar Lip Scrub!

Published on by danamaye1 Comment

Eco Lips Brown Sugar Lip Scrub

I bought a new lip scrub at Walmart! It is the Eco Lips Brown Sugar Lip Scrub. You can buy it from Walmart for $5.97.

I like that it comes in a stick form, rather than in a jar. It makes application easier and a lot less messy.

It tastes like maple syrup, which is a fun flavor twist. Most lip scrubs I have tried taste like mint. I will admit that makes me hungry for pancakes! 😂

It definitely does a good job of removing dead skin and leaving my lips nice and moisturized. I give this product a 5 out of 5!

XOXO,

My Favorite Foundation… L’Oreal Infallible Fresh Wear!

Published on by danamayeLeave a comment

L'Oreal Infallible Freshwear Foundation in Ivory.jpg

When it comes to foundation I am very picky. But, I have found the Holy Grail! I am now on my third bottle, I love this stuff so much!

Today I am reviewing the L’Oreal Infallible Fresh Wear Foundation. You can buy it on Ulta for $14.99.

This foundation is medium coverage, but can build to full coverage. I love that I can build it in certain areas that need it, and keep the rest of my face at medium coverage. It is lightweight feeling and doesn’t emphasize the texture of my skin.

It has thirty shades, which is nice. I originally was wearing Rose Ivory, but went a shade lighter to Ivory, to better match my neck.

It lasts several hours, which is great too. It doesn’t last as long as the L’Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte foundation, but is a lot less drying. If you have combination-dry or dry skin like me, the Infallible Fresh Wear foundation is a great choice!

XOXO,

Add A Pop Of Color With… Revlon Color Stay Sapphire Eyeliner!

I have been having fun trying colored eyeliners. They add a fun pop to the overall look. Today I am reviewing the CoverGirl Color Stay Eyeliner in the shade Sapphire. You can buy it on Amazon for $4.49.

(This eyeliner was part of my Walmart Beauty Haul.)

The color is more of an electric blue than a navy, which I like. It did take some time to build up, as the color is a little lighter. But I think the eyeliner is fun. It would also look good with black eyeliner on the eyelid and the blue eyeliner on the lower lash line.

XOXO,

I Tried… Freeman Neon Vibes Peel Off Face Mask!

Published on by danamaye2 Comments

Freeman Neon Vibes Face Mask

It’s face mask time! Today I am talking about the Freeman Neon Vibes Peel Off Face Mask. This mask was part of a Walmart Beauty Haul post I wrote.

When I saw this face mask at the store, I noticed that it was a peel off mask. I have never used one before, so I was intrigued.

When I applied it, the face mask liquid was sticky, and hard to put on. It applied as a pastel orange color, instead of neon, like I was expecting. That’s probably good, as the dye might have stained my face. I then left it on for the recommended 10 minutes.

It did clean up my pores, like it claimed to. But, about five minutes after rinsing my face, my skin became red and irritated. Now, I have sensitive skin. So if your skin is pretty tolerant, this face mask may be great for you. But if you’re like me… 👎

It had about two uses of product in the packet, but I decided not to chance any further skin reactivity.

So, do I recommend? Definitely not. At least it was only $1.32 at Walmart.

XOXO,

Dana Maye 💚

Is It Worth It? …CoverGirl Electric Green Eyeliner!

Published on by danamaye2 Comments

CoverGirl Defining Moment Electric Green 1.jpg

I decided to try a unique eyeliner. It’s the CoverGirl Defining Moment Eyeliner in Electric Green. You can purchase on Amazon for $5.99.

(This eyeliner was part of my Amazon Beauty Haul.)

CoverGirl Defining Moment Electric Green 2

I wish the color was a little more vibrant. It barely shows up on my eyelids. I will say that it makes for a super subtle, natural look. It also pairs well with my eye color.

The formula is super creamy and almost a little crumbly. It does glide on smoothly, which is nice.

Overall, would I purchase again? Probably not. I’d give it a 2.5 out of 5.

XOXO,

Pamper Yourself With … Freeman Watermelon Face Mask!

Freeman Feeling Beautiful Watermelon Face Mask.jpg

I love the smell of watermelon, so naturally I had to try this face mask! It’s the Freeman Feeling Beautiful Watermelon + Aloe Cooling Gel Mask. It’s supposed to help soothe and moisturize the skin.

First off, I was able to get 10 uses out of the packet. That’s a pretty good value, considering this mask cost $1.37 at Walmart! It has a generous half ounce of product.

I loved the smell. It was nice and light but still smelled like watermelon. Some artificial watermelon scents are too overpowering. This one was perfect.

It did leave my skin feeling nice and soft. So overall I was pleased!

This product was originally mentioned in my Walmart Beauty Haul blog post.

XOXO,

Dana Maye 💚
