WEEKLY SHOWER REVIEW: @weareparadoxx Full Volume Collection 🚿🧖🏻‍♀️ I have naturally super coarse, straight hair so it tends to fall flat and lack volume. I’m always on the hunt for a good volumizing shampoo or texture spray so I was sooo excited to try this Full Volume Collection from WE ARE PARADOXX. Here’s my review:

- The shampoo left my hair feeling hydrated and refreshed. It was lightweight and the smell reminded me of a fresh beachy scent! It’s formulated with ingredients like babassu oil & matcha green tea and the formula is 91% natural, which I love!

- Next up is the conditioner! My hair felt super nourished and conditioned after using. It’s formulated with coconut and hazelnut oils, along with matcha green tea just like their shampoo!

- Before blow drying I used their Volume Blow Dry Spray. This definitely helped speed up the blow dry process and gave my hair an extra smooth and glossy look.

- Last but not least I finished my routine with the Volume Texture Spray. I LOVE how this added texture to my waves and even gave them a lightweight hold and of course, extra volume.

Still dreaming of this @olaplex haircare routine from @skinstore ☁️

What makes these products so special is that they have a patented ingredient called Bis-Aminopropyl Diglycol Dimaleate that dramatically improves your hair strength, protects from within, and provides immediate results for all hair types. My hair was immediately shinier and softer after this routine ✨

Not to mention my hair smelled SOOO good after! Shop the routine on @liketoknow.it xx #theproductgal

Glow up ✨ Loving these @coverfx staples in my makeup routine. Have you ever felt like your liquid foundation or concealer wasn’t hydrating enough?! I’ve been obsessed with mixing this Custom Blending Moisturizer with my under-eye concealer for an extra boost of hydration and an even smoother application. It never leaves my under eyes cakey or dry!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s infused with Prebiotics and Probiotics that balance your skin’s living protective layer to create a more radiant, youthful-looking complexion over time. It’s designed to use alone or to mix with your existing liquid beauty products and a little pump goes a long way. xx #theproductgal

Next I spritz’d my skin with the Rosewater Facial Toner to help hydrate and balance 🌹

I followed up with the Texture Smoothing Cream which was so soothing and literally felt like a green juice for my skin 🍏🌿

WEEKLY SHOWER REVIEW: VERB Hydrating Shampoo, Purple Mask, and Ghost Dry Oil 🚿🧖🏻‍♀️

I’ve always been a fan of VERB haircare products so I thought I would share some of my all time favorites with you to tell you why these are STAPLES in my shower routine! Here’s my review:

- This color-safe Hydrating Shampoo is sooo moisturizing and gentle. Your hair feels very soft after without feeling weighed down! It has a light grapefruit and oatmeal scent 🍊 I personally love that their products smells so fresh but never overbearing.

- Next up is the Purple Mask 💜 It’s sooo good for toning, brightening, and hydrating your hair! When you’re looking a little brassy this mask softens and tones yellow hues.

- After my hair air drys I spray the Ghost Dry Oil all over my ends. It helps hydrate, tame frizz, add shine, and smell sooo yummy.

If you haven’t tried any VERB I highly recommend them! It’s luxury haircare at a more affordable price. I’m seriously obsessed with everything I’ve tried! xx #theproductgal

Here’s your reminder to STOP PICKING YOUR SKIN. One of the top causes of acne-scarring and dark spots is picking at blemishes on your face that aren’t ready to be extracted yet. I am totally guilty of picking at pre-mature pimples in hopes it will just go away faster but the truth is the red or dark scar from picking usually lasts for weeks or months 😭 Here is one of my favorite products and tips to help stop the picking:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ Out of sight out of mind! ✨ I love these pimple patches from @zitsticka because they cover up my blemishes so I don’t go crazy wanting to pick them. Not only do they discreetly cover them but they also accelerate the healing process by reversing the journey (if caught early) and reducing redness!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It comes with a cleaning wipe with salicylic acid, tea tree, and vitamin e and then a microdart patch with hyaluronic acid, salicylic acid, and niacinamide!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I loveeee using these overnight and waking up to a smaller, less red pimple or during the day so I avoid picking! xx #theproductgal

#LTKbeauty

✨ CONSISTENCY IS KEY ✨ Like anything in life, results take time. Especially when it comes to your skin! If a beauty product claims that it will resolve an issue over night, it's probably best to do your own research and change your expectations. Otherwise, you'll be left feeling disappointed because you're not seeing quick results as promised!

On the blog today I'm sharing 3 Skincare Ingredients That Improved My Skin, but let me tell you, it definitely took time for me to see their amazing results! xx #theproductgal #ltkbeauty

SAVE or SPLURGE PT. 1 🤷🏻‍♀️

It can be difficult to know when you should SAVE or SPLURGE on certain products in your skincare routine. Today I’ll be covering whether expensive Vitamin C serums are worth the investment or if the drugstore version is just as effective 👇🏽

First, Vitamin C is an antioxidant that helps to protect your skin from free radical damage and environmental stressors. Think of it as an extra layer of protection in addition to your sunscreen 🌞 It leaves you with brighter, more radiant skin and also has amazing anti-aging benefits like reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation!

The MOST effective Vitamin C serums have between 10-20% L-ascorbic acid (the best form of Vit C) and you definitely want a concentration that’s higher than 8%! Other ingredients to look for in your Vitamin C serum is Vitamin E and ferulic acid — these ingredients together will give you the maximum effectiveness.

If it fits within your budget, a high-quality Vitamin C serum is definitely a product I would SPLURGE on in your skincare routine. I’ve been using the @isclinical Pro-Heal serum for over a year now and I’ve seen a huge difference in my skin when it comes to overall radiance, even skin texture, and even hyperpigmentation from acne scars. xx #theproductgal

Exfoliation is essential for glowy, smooth looking skin! It helps to remove dead skin cells that build up on the surface over time to reveal a radiant, natural glow. When you don’t exfoliate, your skin can begin to look dull, dry, and rough in texture.

As much as I love exfoliating, it’s definitely one of those skincare steps that can easily be overdone – causing irritation, stinging, redness, and even damage to your skin.

That’s why it’s SO important to start out SLOW and to make sure you’re using the right exfoliating product for your skin type.

Today I’m sharing three of my favorite chemical exfoliants and how I use them!

@Playa giving me all the endless summer feels 🥥🐚🌊

These two will definitely be staples in my beach bag over the next few months. As you already know, I'm OBSESSED with their Ritual Hair Oil. It's lightweight enough so you can use it on dry or damp hair and it smells sooo good. Perfect when your hair needs a boost of hydration after a day out in the sun.

Also who doesn't love a texture spray? Their Endless Summer spray is formulated with sea salt harvested from California and creates a perfectly tousled and soft texture to your hair.

My favorite CLAY MASKS PT 3 🧖🏻‍♀️👇🏽

Today I'm crushing on The Removalist from @gotoskincare. This luscious clay mask has kaolin clay which draws out excess oil, sebum, and impurities from the skin, along with calming and soothing zinc oxide, and pepper berry fruit extract which helps to reduce redness.

I've been using this mask specifically on my t-zone which tends to get the oiliest on my face! It's a quick ten minute mini facial that I use once a week!

Not to mention it smells sooo yummy! xx #theproductgal

#LTKbeauty

My favorite CLAY MASKS PT 2. 🧖🏻‍♀️👇🏽

This is a goood one! This Red Algae Mask from @oseamalibu is formulated with French Red Clay to help with blemish-prone or congested skin! I literally look forward to using this mask once every 1-2 weeks because it really does feel like a little at-home spa treat!

When you first apply this mask your skin will tingle a bit, but trust me, wait the full 10-20 minutes before you rinse it off! It's working to cleanse and decongest your pores, while drawing out impurities and excess oil on the skin.

I even will use this mask as an overnight spot treatment if I have a breakout.

Your skin feels so refreshed, smooth, and glowy after using it! ✨ xx #theproductgal
