Shiseido perfect cleansing oil

I'm not a newbie to cleansing oils but this one doesn't feel like an oil! It's light and rinses off cleanly. Surprisingly the first ingredient is mineral oil with grape seed oil further down the list so I technically can't rave about it.

I can love the bottle- while it can 'shoot' product at you, I always love a pump!

This was a new fav until I saw the mineral oil content. 😞

 

Alpha hydrox intensive serum

I've used their products before - when I was younger & really didn't 'need ' them. Well time marches on & now I have lines and dark spots so I scoured Ulta for a solution. (Esp since Kaiser gives the run-around on what it considers 'cosmetic' issues - quality of life counts! -that's my biggest beef with KP.)

I decided this 14% glycolic aha was my solution. While this line has a 'lightening' product - I'm going with a 'sloughing' solution. You apply this liquid with a cotton ball & leave it on (I plan on only using it overnight - even though it's winter I'm concerned about sun exposure).

I've only used it one night but I can feel and see a difference! My dark spots are faded & my skin feels smoother! I will update if I have to decrease usage (I could see that being a problem at 14%!) 

Best part is there is NO SMELL - I had used a lotion of theirs YEARS ago and the smell was a deterrent - it lingered even after dried. (Said lotion was recently tossed as it changed color - but it was easily 15+ years!)

Davines all in one milk - for hair

Sorry I've been radio silent for a bit! These past two months have been crazy - but I've recently bought or sampled some amazing products!!

Davines all in one milk- multi benefit beauty treatment is one such item. While I love my Aveda everyday products, I'm a bit of a product whore & obvs I cheat!

This leave-in supplement is awesome! I have several sample sizes and have been using it as a treat, not an everyday - but it allows me to airdry without other products! My hair is light and curly - like a baby! But not flyaway or frizzy. 

The scent is clean and pleasant (& disappears quickly!)
