Complexion Rescue - A New Shade of Skincare

It's no secret that winter wreaks havoc on skin, and if you're anything like me you find yourself trying to figure out what will give your skin that major moisture boost it so desperately needs without leaving you feeling greasy or breakout-prone!

Well my friends, I think I've just found the answer! Enter, bareMinerals' Complexion Rescue - it's a super hydrating gel cream that takes the best parts of a bb cream, cc cream and tinted moisturizer all in one! Plus, it's a hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic formula that has no silicone, fragrance, oil or parabens! 

I've been using this product for just over a week now and I can honestly say any sign of dry, flaky winter skin is gone. My skin definitely feels softer and has a more dewy appearance.

I will fully admit as a girl who battles with rosacea, redness, and semi-regular breakouts, I was unsure that this would work for me. I had perfect skin as a teenager but once I hit 30 I've been struggling to figure out my skin. So light coverage didn't sound like it was going to cut it, but truthfully it's really build-able, and with a little concealer and powder, I was good to go! Application is really easy, too... you can use your fingers or the smoothing face brush

More than anything though I just really love how this product feels. It really absorbs into your skin and totally hydrates it. When my skin is winter-dry, most foundations end up looking cakey or really bring out those awful little flakes of skin - Complexion Rescue is completely opposite and moisturizes better than my daily moisturizer! Pretty impressive.

This was my first time trying any bareMinerals product and I can tell you that I've spent some serious time browsing their other products online. My next trip to Sephora will definitely include a few others! With a mantra of "Be original. Be natural. Be good", what's not to love?

New Favorite



Just a random little Sunday post to share my new favorite nail polishes - I am going to wear these all summer long. I am so in love with the orange - I was on the hunt for the perfect orange, and low & behold, here she be!

Thoughts Of Fall

I'm really trying not to, but I keep finding myself dreaming of fall (while it's blistering hot outside) and to keep myself from doing a full 'fall' post (since I should be, and am, enjoying every moment of summer!) I thought I'd do a very mini baby 'fall' post. Anticipating trading in mint for sage, and lilac for plum... and hoping sage compliments my skin tone more than mint did!
