Viva La Lush

I talked a little bit about this soap on my video blog last week, and promised to give more details. My skin is very sensitive, and is prone to redness. I have tried millions of different products trying to make my skin clearer, smoother, and all one color. I didn't even realize these products were not helping my skin but actually making my condition worse! My sister told me about this soap and I was like skeptical because nothing made my skin better, I always had a lot of redness and blemishes. So when I went to visit her she had me try this soap, she told me to try it for the week I was there and see if I saw a difference. So I tried it not thinking it would actually do anything. WOW is all I have to say. I really wish I had a before and after picture to show you the drastic difference. My skin has NEVER looked or felt better. My redness gone. Blemishes? Gone! Even my mom noticed! :) I hardly even have to put foundation on my skin looks so fabulous :)

On the LUSH website they tell you what it does and what is in the soap:

"If your skin is troubled, sensitive and reacts to nearly everything you put on it, lather up with this nightly. It's pink because it's packed with calamine, the stuff your mom put on your mosquito bites to calm down your skin and stop it from itching. We also add chamomile and rose to soothe, and a bit of tea tree oil to help cleanse for blemish-free skin. It's soft, creamy and delightfully effective so give it a try, rub the pink frothy foam all over."

They can cut the soap to whatever size you'd like and the price ranges from OZ. It doesn't have a funky odor and the chunk you get lasts for a couple months (about the same time a regular face wash lasts)

Do I have you sold yet? If you don't believe me, I will hold a contest for one lucky winner to receive a tiny piece to try out for a week. I bet you will never look back to your old face washes ;)

Oil free to the rescue!

So I am really sorry about the no posting lately :\ I have been so busy with work! They had me working basically everyday this week! But no worries! Cuz I am BACK! I am thinking of doing two posts today this first one will be short and sweet. I just wanted to comment on this face wash I have been using! :D <3

So my skin wasn't bad but it was the regular teenagers skin. I had the occasional zits and a very red t-zone. But my problem wasn't that I just got pimples from oily skin or anything it was from that dirty word: STRESS!

Now I have tried all sorts of face washes, scrubs, creams, masks, etc. I was so close to buying proactiv. Boy am I glad I didn't spend my money on that! :D I went to cvs one day and scowered the wall of face washes. There were so many to choose from! I was a little bit overwhelmed. So I decided to ask for some help. I asked the lady at the cashier counter by the makeup if she could help me. She came over and I showed her the ones I had already tried. Then she pointed me to this fabulous creation. Neutrogena Oil-free Acne Stress Control, 3-in-1 Hydrating Acne Treatment. (pictured below) Wow now that is a mouth full :p

So I tried it and after only two weeks of using it. I am in love. My face has never looked better! :D It is clean, bright and acne free! :D The redness on my face is even gone! :) My foundation goes on cleaner and I don't have to cover any redness or blemishes ;D

The best part about this amazing product is that it prevents acne before it even starts to show up! :D What can you not love about that?!

This product is rated four and a half stars. :o and it is under $10! :O:O:O:O And just when you thought it couldn't get any better ;)

Just read some of the reviews!

"I have tried alot of products for acne and while some worked, they were very harsh on my skin and I dreaded using them. I always look for gentle products to use on my skin and it's very hard to find products that fight acne but also fight irritation. This one does! I swear the first time I put it on my face, I felt refreshed and calmed."

"I have tried it all! Ever since I was a teen (20+ years ago), I have tried everything from antibiotics to retinol, proactive to murad products. This by far works the best for me. I use it twice a day. I didn't realize how well it worked till I ran out of it on vacation and started to break out. I have whiteheads, black heads, enlarged pores and the nasty deep cystic acne .... IF I don't use this stuff."

Amazing huh? ;) So why don't you try it for yourself? Instead of paying $100 in products where you need to do three treatments, get this at target for $5.84! :O
