Flakes be Gone!

            So I’m sitting here with with my boscia luminizing black mask on (don’t worry, we’ll review this miracle in  a tube soon) thinking about how happy I am that I have discovered the perfect moisturizer to make flakey, wintery skin a thing of the past. boscia’s Intensifying Moisture Pack is the only product I have ever used that makes my super dry skin, flake free. I used to go to bed with cracked skin that I would cover with a thick moisturizer in hopes of waking up to smooth, moisturized skin. That was always my plan, but I never got the results I had hoped for….until now.            
                                                        

            The Intensifying Moisture Pack can be used as a moisturizer, an intensifier or a mask. At first I was worried that if I slathered it on and didn’t tissue it off I would wake up with a major breakout. So I decided to use it as a mask. I put some on and wiped it off after a few minutes. I did notice improvement after a few nights of doing this. Then I got brave. I put on a small amount and kept it on overnight. This is the way to go! I woke up without flakes or dry patches after the first night of keeping it on! Ahhmazzzing.
            I know that $30 is a bit silly for less than three ounces of product, but believe me when I say a teeny tiny bit goes a very long way.  If you’re worried that you wont love this product as much as I do, ask for a sample from Sephora (mine lasted a month!).

Sugar Rush


Happy New Year! I hope you had fun celebrating!

To start off the year, I want to recommend two products that I have recently fallen in love with for My First Quickie. The Texas winter has been brutal to my hair, skin, and especially face—mainly my lips. It seems that no matter what I did they were chapped and peeling…then I discovered Fresh Sugar. I purchased the Fresh Sugar Fix duo kit from Sephora for $22 and could not be more pleased. After one use my lips were smooth and healthy feeling! The kit comes with a mini version of the Sugar Lip Polish and Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15 and all you do is rub the polish on your lips, wash it off, and follow using the treatment. All in all, it takes about 40 seconds to revitalize your lips, enhancing your all-over facial glow. Enjoy.


I’ve been out of touch for a while now, but I’m back, and there will be more to follow soon.

As always, let me know what you think.

Cheers,
Taylor
