What i've been doing lately ♡

Hi everybody, I haven't updated you guys on whats going on in my life in a while now so I thought i'd fill you guys in ^__^ I was actually in the ER last weekend because I got a concussion ; - ; I waited about a week to even go to the hospital, I don't even know why! But when I went they told me I had a minor concussion, since then I went to my ER follow up visit at the doctors because i've been experiencing severe anxiety, and nausea since then and they gave me medication for both of them, but it still hasn't really changed :c i'm hoping it all goes away before school starts. Speaking of school, I start school on August 12th! I didn't get a lot of the classes I wanted because my registration date was pretty late but i'm still taking some pretty cool classes! I'm taking Interior design, Architecture, and Psychology. I wanted to add English, and Yoga but those filled up so fast, so hopefully next semester i'll get those. When school starts i'm planning on blogging every other day instead of posting three or four things in one day! Just so you guys are getting things constantly throughout the week. Also, I have a couple of back to school giveaways coming up soon! I hope you guys are excited ^__^  The most exciting one in my opinion is going to be a stay cute giveaway! The owner and I picked out what we would be giving you guys just a few minutes ago, and I know you guys will love it! Also, I wanted to give you guys an update on the whole youtube thing. I know I started and said I wouldn't stop, but I did end up stopping and i'm sorry. I have a bit of a problem with speaking to a camera. It gives me anxiety thinking about it. I've had a speech impediment my whole life and its hard for me to just talk clearly when i'm nervous. It sucks! I just wanted to let you guys know that its not completely out of the question. I still think about making videos. I might start off by just making outfit videos where I don't talk just to get comfortable in front of the camera. I hope you guys understand! I recently went to LA for my boyfriends birthday so I have a follow me around post coming up in the next couple of days. I just have a couple of photos left on the camera so I don't wanna go develop the photos until I finish it off! Also i've been using twitter, and tumblr a lot lately so you should follow me on there!!! I love you guys a lot and i'm almost to a million and a half views! I'm so excited! muah muah muah xoxo

@nspabeauty rituals review ♡

I've never heard of nspa beauty before, but they contacted me via twitter asking to send me some products and I agreed! I tried this out for the first time today and my first impression of it was amazing. The best part about this is that they don't test on animals and are paraben free! To see their website click  here.

The first step in this system is the melting cleansing gel. This was my favorite product because it feels really really nice! What you do is put on a dry face and rub it all over your face in tiny circles and then wet your fingers and rub your face again in circles and then the gel turns into a cleansing milk and it feels really really clean when you wash it all off! I could live off of this product. My first impression was that it left my face feeling bright, soft, and supple. I love it.

The second step in this system is the hot cloth polish. i've never used something like this before, although once I got a facial at a spa, and they did something similar. So this product made me feel special ^__^ I don't have the special cloth that you're supposed to use with it, so I just used a normal cloth. The texture of this product is lotion like. You rub it all over your skin and then put the cloth under hot water, wring it out, and then wipe the product off your face! Once I did all of this there was an instant cooling effect and my face felt like it could breathe! I really adore this. 

The third step in this system is this Illuminating beauty serum. You put this on without washing it off so you can wear this under your makeup (like I did today) this made my face glow! It made my skin look really soft and kinda like it covered my pores, it was pretty neat! 

The last step in this system is this Brightening day cream with SPF 15. This is another step you don't wash off and this is really great to wear under makeup because it has SPF. I really appreciate that! It didn't smell like sunscreen at all which is another plus. It was a lotion feeling cream and melted right into my skin. 

I really enjoyed the spa like feeling these products gave me. I thought it would be a hassle using them because when I think of a four step system I think of something thats going to take me a long time but in reality it only took me less than five minutes to do all of this!

Etude house AC clinic daily gel review ♡

So about a month and a half ago I ordered some face masks off of ebay and the seller gave me a sample of this AC clinic daily gel lotion in a tiny bottle. I absolutely loved the texture and how it sunk into my skin that I decided to buy it! So today i'm going to be reviewing it for you. 

This gel lotion is by Etude house which is a korean brand that sells tons of different kinds of makeup. I've been using their blushes for about a year and a half now! The bottle this is in is actually glass, and its really good quality so once the product is gone, you can put something else in here. The only problem i have with this packaging is that it has a screw off cap, not a pump. So its kind of hard to control how much product is coming out. The packing is a lot cleaner and simple compared to a lot of the packing etude house puts out which is nice!

Now on to the actual product! This is a gel, so its perfect if you have troublesome skin because it wont just lay on top of your skin like a normal lotion. Gel is lighter and absorbs quicker. This gel goes a LONG way, so this bottle will probably last me six or seven months of use. The gel has a pretty clean smelling... smell. I'm not sure how I would explain the smell. It's not bad at all! I've been using this gel every single day for about three weeks now and i'm loving it so far. It has not broke me out, works when i wear it under makeup, and keeps my face moisturized. This is the perfect summer moisturizer! But since it's almost fall over here in California, I hope it keeps up through winter. 

If you've been looking for something new to try, I would really recommend this! I bought mine off of ebay. The seller I bought it from isn't selling it anymore but you can just search "Etude house ac clinic daily gel" and you should find some! ^_^

Cosmetic Warrior lush face mask review ♡

Hi there again guys and girls! I haven't done a lush review in such a long time! Why you ask?! Because I have a HUGE basket filled to the brim with unused products. I kept buying and buying and never had enough time to use all of them. Plus, I don't like baths during summer, so i'm kind of on a lush break at the moment besides my skincare routine. I'm going to be telling you guys about this lovely face mask today! Its called cosmetic warrior and its a fresh face mask which means it needs to be refrigerated. So unfortunately, you can only buy this in store. 

The main ingredients in this fresh face mask are: Fresh grapes, eggs, garlic, honey, and kaolin. So this makes this the perfect acne prone skin mask! I'm not very familiar with kaolin, but its a type of clay. The other ingredients i've talked about on my blog tons! Now, since this has eggs in it, it isn't a vegan product like a lot of their other stuff is, but they made sure to let us know they used free range eggs!

The texture of this face mask is very soft and calming. Although it does smell a little. It doesn't really bother me that much at all because my nose is dumb and doesn't work very well but when you go into the store make sure to give it a little whiff and see if its something you can deal with before you buy it. This mask doesn't have any exfoliants so if you have acne it isn't going to irritate your skin by scrubbing it. I really adore this mask because it leaves my skin feeling light, soft, and dry but not too dry to where it is bad for me. That kinda dry where it just dries out your pimples kinda dry! If you've been struggling with acne or acne scarring you should check out this mask! Its lovely, and very affordable!
