A tiny drop ran in my eye and it burned so bad! It took 10 minutes of rinsing and lubricating eye drops to make the burn go away. You next. Spill it! #skincare #skincareroutine #skincareproducts #skincarecommunity #skincarejunkie

Ready to try Black Girl Sunscreen Make It Pop Sun Ready to try Black Girl Sunscreen Make It Pop Sun Gloss SPF 50 with me? It is described by the brand as a revolutionary sun gloss for protected, glossy and popping lips. This gloss is formulated with broad spectrum SPF 50, Hyaluronic acid, tripeptides and jojoba seed oil. Packaging ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ingredients ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Application ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Efficacy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This gloss is packaged in a tube with a doe foot wand. The color of the gloss is totally clear. It applies with ease, has no scent and no taste. The texture is very thick and rich. The finish is glassy and cushiony. It’s comfortable on the lips and you can easily drink with this gloss on. But be ready to reapply after a meal. This gloss is reminds me of MAC lipglass, but at a much more affordable price point with better ingredients and SPF protection. It has that same glassy, cushiony feel that made it a staple in my makeup bag. It is sold out on blackgirlsunscreen.com, and should restock soon.

#PR | I recently received a sample of this sunscre #PR | I recently received a sample of this sunscreen from @goodmolecules and found it to be imperative that we learn from it. If your sunscreen looks like this when you dispense it, throw it away. I’ll explain why: Separated sunscreen refers to a sunscreen product that has physically separated into different layers. Reasons include changes in temperature, improper storage and/or age. Separated sunscreens may not be effective at protecting the skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays as a properly mixed product. Actives are not evenly distributed, leading to patches of skin being less protected than others. Both and American Academy of Dermatology and The skin cancer foundation both recommend replacing sunscreen that has separated, become clumpy, thick or gritty.

Winter kicked off with a bang didn’t it? It’s Winter kicked off with a bang didn’t it? It’s currently 12 degrees in Mississippi. I had two thoughts: 1- I need you good people from the north to take your weather back. 2- we should totally talk winter skincare. What are you doing this winter to protect your skin?
If your skin is dull or feels dry and tight, there If your skin is dull or feels dry and tight, there’s a good chance your skin is suffering from dehydration, which means it lacks hydration. Not to be confused with lacking moisture, we will talk about that later. Here’s some helpful skincare hydration tips I wish I knew sooner ✨Your skincare routine should change when the seasons change. More hydration and thicker moisture in the fall and winter is a solid example. ✨Hyaluronic acid is one of many hydrating skincare ingredients. Find the one that’s right for you. ✨Your hydrating serum might work better on damp skin. ✨You always need a moisturizer to seal in the hydration. Cant have one without the other ✨Speaking of moisturizers, water based is best for all skin types, even oily! Share this now, save it for later and tell me your favorite skincare hydration tip. #skincare #heyaprill

2023 is right around the corner, which means it’ 2023 is right around the corner, which means it’s time to set some goals for the new year. Naturally I only care about skincare goals, so I’m going to be honest and share mine, then you tell me what’s yours? ✨I was not consistent this year. I didn’t stick to a routine, barely did any special treatments (Dermaplaning, peels, you name it, I didn’t do it). I want to at least do 3 steps in my routine 2x a day. ✨I didn’t wear SPF often enough. The anxiety of having so many in my stash caused me to hit skip on days I didn’t have to work outside. My goal is 4 days a week to start. ✨My product game is trash. I have too much and not enough all at the same time. I can’t make it make sense, IYKYK. Have you thought about your goals? Anything you want to improve on next year? Talk to me!!!

Cosrx also designed this bottle to prevent oxygen from coming in, and to expel gas as it is opened. Shelf life is 2 months. Ingredients list is five stars. Cosrx developed this serum with maximum effectiveness and minimal irritation. It contains Ethyl Ascorbyl Ether, known as a stable and promising form of vitamin C. Another conversation worthy ingredient is Tocotrienol, also known as Super Vitamin E. Tocotrienol is a potent form of vitamin E that can help mitigate the unwanted effects of sun exposure. The serum’s color is pale to light yellow and has a light vitamin-y smell. Application is five stars. During the serum phase of your routine, shake the bottle from side to side a couple times and apply a few drops to the skin. The serum’s texture is watery and dries with a little tack to the skin. Remember, if you apply during your AM routine, follow up with a sunscreen. Efficacy is five stars. After 1 month of use, my skin was brighter and my texture was improved. Most importantly, it did not sting or burn after application, which is a common issue with vitamin c serums. If you need a vitamin c serum in your routine, Cosrx The Vitamin C 23 is a great choice. It’s great for all skin types and affordable. Cosrx The Vitamin C 23 retails $25.

#skinceuticalspartner | If you guessed SkinCeutica #skinceuticalspartner | If you guessed SkinCeuticals on the last video, you were absolutely right. When @skinceuticals reached out to me to try a product, I couldn’t say no, and when you are trying skincare products, you have to try the good and the bad SkinCeuticals Sheer Physical Defense SPF is described as a weightless, 100% physical sunscreen that provides broad spectrum protection with a transparent finish. Now that we got that description out of the way, I want to show yall how deceptive swatching sunscreen on your hand can be. Add a few drops to my hand, blend. Hmm looks promising Lets try it on the face. Two fingers will give me the recommended amount for protection. I apply it to my face and in natural lighting, it doesn’t look *that* bad but lets brighten things up! Look at that white cast! Because of the white cast, I can’t recommend this product to people with brown skin tones. Dear brands, it’s time to stop using deceptive terms like invisible, sheer and transparent to describe mineral SPF’s that leave a white cast on brown skin. #skincare #skincareroutine #sunscreen #skinceuticals #heyaprill
