I was so excited to receive some products from, ZO' Skin Health, created by the world renowned dermatologist Dr. Zein Obagi. Zo' Skin was the first luxury medical skincare brand in the world, but not surprising it came from the inventor of skin health science, Dr. Obagi. These products are so luxe and worth the splurge. My skin loved these - felt and looked great after using them.

Mermaid skincare? I received these from  Go Picky and Purito in exchange for my honest opinion.
I have never tried products made with deep sea water - 60% from depths below 200m, nor have I seen a mermaid with wrinkles - coincidence? I think not ;)
The Deep Sea Water Cream has other notable ingredients too: panthenol,sodium hyaluronate,vitamin b3, Niacinimide, essential oil free, Marine Complex (kelp, glasswort, sea grapes)
The natural marine ingredients from the deep ocean water moisturize skin and aren't irritating. This, along with the other ingredients, delivers deep hydration, helps with wrinkles & elasticity in a clear gel type texture.

Deep Sea Droplet Serum has Snow Mushroom capsules that burst when you apply. Snow mushrooms have been used in skincare for 1000's of yholOtherdingears due to its amazing hydrating ability 500 times its weight in waterMarine.  notables: 66.01% Deep Sea Water,  Complex (sea grapes, glasswort/kelp), 2 kinds of peptides, 48-hour hydration.

Both of these products were very hydrating when used together. Purito is vegan, cruelty-free, and very reasonably priced.

Thank you Wishtrend for choosing me to take part in receiving a mystery product. It was exciting not knowing what product I was going to be receiving. It actually was a product I know & love that got a makeover! Meet Blue Oasis Aloe Hydrating Serum (formerly Hydra Enriched Ampoule) This is the same formula you loved before, with an updated look. I like the light texture, and my skin feels very hydrated after using. It pairs well with other products and absorps quickly.

Skincare & foundation in one?  Yes, please! Meet Saie Beauty's new foundation, Glowy Super Skin Foundation. This dewy formula is 85% skincare, 15% weightless pigment, hydrates, plumps, and evens out skin.
Notables: Hydrobounce(TM), that is 5X more hydrating than Hyaluronic Acid, Squalane, Polyglutamic Acid, buildable, vegan, synthetic/natural fragrance free, essential oil free, cruelty free
This formula is amazing, weightless & looks so beautiful. A few things to note: shake to activate- because of all the skincare ingredients, you may see separation, apply on bare skin or light moisturizer that's already dry, apply like a serum by gently pressing into skin, and a little goes a long way- 1/2-1 pump.
Also in the picture; Sunvisor, The Base Brush, The Fluffy Brush, Airset Radiant Loose Powder
Thank you Saie Beauty for sending these amazing products my way!

I received these free from Picky Rewards and the Skin House in exchange for my honest opinion.
Wrinkle Supreme Cream - Mushrooms are really having their moment in beauty right now. Used for centuries in Eastern cultures, shrooms have anti-inflammatory properties, antioxidants, which can help with darkspots, wrinkles & skin disorders.
This is a really thick cream. It's not really sticky, but I can feel it on my skin. It's incredibly moisturizing, and I'm looking forward to seeing results.
Notables: 9 types of mushrooms, red ginseng, Ceramide NP, and adenosine.

Wrinkle Supreme Serum - this has the same notable ingredients as the cream but is lighter and absorbs better. It is a serum but looks & acts like a lotion.
Both of these products have a light floral scent and are cruelty free.

I received these free from & in exchange for my honest opinion.

Have you ever wondered how snail mucin came to be one of the most popular anti-aging treatments in skincare? Me too. It actually started in Chile! Workers on a snail farm discovered their hands were moisturized & plump after handling these slimy crustaceans. The first cream to use snail mucin was Chilean, but kbeauty has popularized it.

Black Snail Collagen All in One Eye Cream - I like this texture over traditional snail creams because it wasn't stringy/slimy. Although it says eye cream, you can use this all over your face/neck area.

Notables: 92% snail mucin, collagen, peptides, red ginseng, black bean/rice/sesame,hydrates, firms, treats wrinkles

Black Snail Collagen Cream - This has the traditional stringy snail mucin texture. Notables: snail mucin, collagen, black bean, aloe, copper tri peptide-1, lifts, firms, nourishes, good for acne prone skin
