Derma E - Gluten Free Skincare Customized Just For You!


Hello Everyone!

If you weren't aware before, you have to know I am a huge fan of Derma E products. Not only do their products work, but they are good for you as well!  In short they leave out all the yucky stuff, and leave in all the wonderful amazing ingredients that your skin - needs and craves!

You may ask what makes their skincare products so different? By going here you can find out exactly why I love them so much:

 September marked the start of their campaign for Gluten Free Skincare (which I love!), frankly I think we should keep promoting it year-a-round. I think finding a good skincare regimen that keeps working - is a full time job. Finding and having Gluten Free Skincare is not quite as hard as knowing which ones are right for your skin. However, it doesn't have to be a full time task and knowing which ones are right for you is made simple starting NOW. How you may ask? Thanks to Derma E's custom skincare regimen, the products are catered to your specific needs. After all everyone's skin is different, so it would make sense that everyone should have a different regimen suited to their type of skin.

All you have to do is start here:  
  type in your email (you can use any email, it's just so they can mail your results afterwards) to answer just a few question's about your skin. Then based on your result's they put together a regimen just for YOU!  

Then you can pick and choose what products you want to buy (or buy them all) and done! I did it, and I am so happy that I did. My skin has never felt better.

Now, let me share with you a few products that were chosen for me in my skincare regimen....



According to their site...."This natural antibacterial cleanser thoroughly deep cleans the entire face and body leaving skin feeling clean, soft, deodorized and healthy. A unique combination of ingredients provides natural antiseptic action to combat a wide range of problem skin conditions such as blemishes, rashes, irritation, flaking and itching... 100% vegan, cruelty-free, paraben-free, mineral oil-free, lanolin-free, gluten-free, GMO-free."



I love using this face/body wash while I am in the shower. My skin is itchy 24/7, and I have noticed since using it my skin feels and looks so much better. I hardly ever get itchy now, which is amazing for me since I have extremely dry and itchy skin. 

 This product is more of what I call a gel, but gives you that soapy look and feel once wet. It smells mostly of Chamomile to me, and I rather enjoy the scent. It's quite different than previous products I have used with Chamomile in it, but in a good way. The only negative thing I have to say is not about the product itself at all. When I first opened it the product came out really fast, and I had way more than I needed, so just keep that in mind if you purchase this product. I sort of tilt mine to the side, instead of straight down when using it now.



"Visibly soften and smooth the appearance of even the deepest wrinkles with this revolutionary double-action peptide crème that contains two of the most powerful and effective peptides that bio-science has to offer. Peptide Matrixyl® synthe'6® tells the skin to synthesize new key components such as collagen and to restructure itself. Peptide Argireline® helps relax facial muscles, smooth wrinkles, and discourage the formation of new lines.."



I love putting this on right after I exfoliate my face. I think it absorbs that much better when I do. I like how this moisturizer isn't too thick or thin, and is basically everything I could ask of a moisturizer and more. With time I hope to come back and show you my full results, but so far I have significantly noticed my skin feels tighter and overall healthier. It is recommended for all skin types. I have more dry skin than anything, and this helps a lot with my dry skin. 



"Immediately improve the appearance of your skin using this gentle yet effective multi-award-winning Microdermabrasion Scrub. This salon-perfect formula uses an exclusive crystal blend including Dead Sea Salt and Volcanic Sand (rich in Silica) to buff away dull surface cells, help diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and acne scars, and absorb excess skin oils. Enriched with natural astringents Lime and Lemon Peel plus antioxidants Grapeseed and Vitamin E, this pro-grade treatment retexturizes skin, leaving it soft, smooth and younger-looking. May also be used on your hands, elbows, knees, heels or any part of the body to promote soft, smooth and healthy skin..."


This is one of their most popular products, and has received a ton of awards. After trying it even just once, I can understand why. It truly eliminates any dry or flaky skin off your face, and ultimately makes your skin softer. After having tried this, I am kicking myself asking why haven't I tried it until now. It is probably the best Microdermabrasion scrub I have ever used, and for $32 (not to mention the amount of product you get) that is a steal!

I hope that if you get anything from my post today that you learn choosing the appropriate skincare routine is an important decision. It truly can make your skin 10 years younger (or 10 years older if choosing the wrong routine). Make sure you get your customized skincare routine here, and use coupon code ICANTWHEAT to take 25% off your order (expires 11/20/15). 

Feel free to ask any questions and/or comment below, and I will do my best to help you. Your feedback is highly appreciated.

Until Next Time - Stay Beautiful!

XOXO,

InstaNatural - Vitamin C Moisturizer


Hello all of my BEAUTIFUL (and handsome) readers! Today, I want to talk to you about a Vitamin C Moisturizer from InstaNatural. If you are familiar with my blog than you know, I am a big fan of the company and love writing about them. Vitamin C seems to be the most popular thing on the market; most of them being serums. However, Vitamin C Moisturizers are in a class of their own, and in my opinion - a hit or miss product. So of course when I was given the opportunity, I took it so I could see how it compares. 

Who is InstaNatural?

NOT tested on animals :)

About InstaNatural

"InstaNatural was started as a small local business in Florida and after positive feedback from all their customers, they decided to step into online distribution. They launched their first product in 2013 and since then they have never looked back.
At present, InstaNatural is a leading online distributer of six nature inspired beauty and cosmetics products. InstaNatural is constantly in search of wonderful natural ingredients from the whole world to bring to its customers beauty products bursting with efficiency to enhance the natural beauty that is often lost due to various external and internal factors."

Vision and Philosophy

“InstaNatural is committed towards bringing its great beauty products. We at InstaNatural value the safety of our customers therefore we reveal every single ingredient included in our products on the label. We wake up each day with a vision to provide maximum satisfaction to our customers with our constant efforts.”

I love how on their site you can really feel through their story who they are and what they are all about.  I also can appreciate a hard working company from the south, since I live in South Carolina. My other favorite thing about them is that they list all the ingredients they use on their labels. If you wish to learn more about InstaNatural you go to their site which is located here

They also have a facebook page where you keep up with their updates located here.


The Products/My Thoughts


(side view so you can see the applicator)


From their site...
InstaNatural’s Vitamin C Moisturizer contains a proprietary blend of supercharged antioxidants and other powerful ingredients that can help you achieve a healthy and glowing complexion. Vitamin C is a well-known antioxidant agent, which can help protect your skin from the damaging effects of sun exposure and UV rays. Our moisturizer will deliver a potent 20% dose of Vitamin C to your skin, along with other nourishing ingredients – such as Niacinamide, Hyaluronic Acid, and Plant Stem Cells – that work together to reduce the appearance of signs of aging, such as wrinkles, age spots, discoloration and dryness.


Directions of how to apply.

I really like the way the moisturizer feels, it's identical to a Vitamin C serum accept with the extra added moisture (which is what I need). I think it is a wonderful moisturizer to put under makeup, and have noticed my pores are less clogged by doing so. It puts up a barrier on the skin, and it glides on well. It doesn't have much of a scent like a serum which is a good thing, as I don't react well to scented face products sometimes. If you have wanted to try a Vitamin C serum, but need that extra moisture/protection like I do then this would be a great product to use.

 Overall Product Score: 4.8*


I would love to know, What do you think of InstaNatural and their products? Have you ever tried a Vitamin C Moisturizer before? I love hearing your comments as well as your questions, so feel free to leave them below! :)

Derm Organic - Hair Care & Skin Care Review


Hello Everyone! I hope all of you are having a FANTASTIC day! Today, I want to discuss with you about a wonderful organic care line called Derm Organic. They make all sorts of products, from hair care to skin care. I received a variety of products, so I want to get into a little bit about each one. So get ready to open your ears and eyes, and let's see if Derm Organic has something to offer to change the way you think about your everyday routine...

Who Is Derm Organic?

At DermOrganic we believe the ingredients we don’t use are just as important as the ones we do.


purity

"DermOrganic Laboratories, Inc. was founded in 1995 with a singular goal: To offer hair and skin professionals superior performing products that avoid, as much as possible, the harsh and synthetic ingredients found in standard cosmetic products. 
While the average person may use hair and skin products once a day, professional cosmetologists are exposed to them many times every day for an entire career! 
With that in mind, we based each DermOrganic formula around ingredients that replicate natural hair and skin nutrients, replenishing from the outside what they need inside for health and vitality. This includes cleansers made from EFA lipids and amino acids, conditioners derived from vegetable proteins, treatments and even styling items rich in natural moisture factors. Each time you use them they contribute essential nutrients vital to maintaining the long-term health of hair and skin." [The following information comes from Derm Organic's official website to find out more, you can locate this information here.]

I am truly impressed already. I like that not only are they organic, but they explain what their products are all about. To know that what I am putting on my body is not only safe, but rich in essential nutrients is a must have for me when choosing products to use.

The Products/My Thought's

SKINCARE:

All skincare products are"FRAGRANCE-FREE - But with a clean fresh scent OIL-FREE - While preserving all the benefits of the Moroccan Argan fruit. YUZU EXTRACT - Rich in flavinoids, Vitamin C to help support delicate skin layers PLANT-BASED LIPIDS - Provide natural moisture skin needs OMEGA-6 & ANTIOXIDANTS - Protect from environmental degradation BOTANICOLLAGEN - Plant-derived extract supports skin layers to minimize the appearance of fine lines." 



                                                                        -Soap-free, non-abrasive formula
                                                     -Strong enough to remove makeup
                                                       -Gentle enough for delicate eye area
                                                   -Imparts a fresh tight feel without dryness
                                       -Plant-based lipids moisturize and balance while cleansing
                                                      -Made with Argan extract of Morocco
                                                      -Rich in Omega-6 and Vitamins C&E
                                                 -With Yuzu fruit extract and BotaniCollagenTM
                                                           - Oil-free and fragrance-free 

This was my favorite product in the skincare line. I really enjoyed this cleanser, because it wasn't your normal type of cleanser. It has a very creamy and thick formula. I didn't have to use a lot in order to get a full coverage, unlike some of the thinner clear cleanser's. It also didn't dry my face out, in fact it did the opposite. I've never had a cleanser that gave me so much moisture, but at the same time gave me a deep clean feeling. It was also very gentle on my skin, and I think appropriate for any skin type (such as sensitive one's like myself).
PRICE: $6.99 - 2FL OZ or $25 - 8FL OZ


                                                                           -Softens and improves elasticity
                                                                   -Minimizes fine lines
                                                            -Sheer formula absorbs quickly
                                                            -With plant-derived BotaniCollagen
                                                            -Made with Argan extract of Morocco
                                                        -Rich in Lipids, Omega-6 and Vitamins C & E
                                                                -With Yuzu fruit extract
                                                              -Oil-free and fragrance-free

A little bit of this truly goes a long way. It is really moisturizing and just what I need for my constant dry skin. Since using this, my face has felt smoother and clearer. I also love the light citrus scent of all the skincare products. I think this is another product that is really well made for all skin care types. I love using this as a makeup base, as well as putting it on at night before I go to bed. This gives the product maximum time for it to fully seep in. 

PRICE: $7.99 - 1FL OZ or $25 - 3.4FL OZ



                                                  -Hydrating cream for hand and body
                                      -Leaves skin feeling soft, clean and moisturized
                                              -Rich formula with a sheer application
                          -Glides on and absorbs quickly -Protects moisture balance
                                        -Rich in Lipids, Omega-6 and VitaminsC&E
                                              -Made withArgan extract of Morocco
                                       -With Yuzu fruit extract and BotaniCollagenTM
                                                       -Oil-free and fragrance-free 

    This hand and body lotion did not disappoint! It is fragrance free and not sticky and absorbs quickly. I have seen a dramatic improvement in the softness and smoothness of my skin. I also like how sheer it is, and the way it glides on. I like applying this right when  I get out the shower and my pores are open, to get the ultimate moisturizing affect out of it. 
    PRICE: $6.99 - 2FL OZ or $25 - 12FL OZ


HAIRCARE:



    -Gentle sulfate-free formula
    -Safe for color-treated hair
    -The shampoo made with facial cleansers!
    -Revitalizes and enlivens
    -Rich luxurious lather makes other sulfate-free shampoos jealous!
    -Enriched with Omega-6, Panthenol B5, Rice Keratin and Antioxidants

    I like this shampoo. It is really thick, but I like that because I don't have to use a lot of it to cover my SUPER long hair! Even a small bottle of it lasts a really long time. I was worried that it wouldn't but it does. So if your looking to try the haircare products out through a sampler pack and have long THICK hair like mine, it will be enough. I do not care for the smell, but I don't feel like it stays with my hair after I condition and dry it. All in all I would use/buy this again, my hair doesn't seemed dried out after continued use or gets use to it after just one use like some shampoo's. 
    PRICE: $5.99 - 3FL OZ, $18 - 12FL OZ, or $35 - 33.8FL OZ



    -Repairs damaged hair
    -Smoothes and softens
    -Strengthens and texturizes
    -Makes hair manageable again
    -Fortifies and improves elasticity
    -Enriched with Omega-6, Antioxidants,Rice Keratin Amino Acids and Essential Lipids

    I have such dry and brittle hair, but when I use the masque  it takes all of that away. It also improves the elasticity like it says. I love the smell of this masque as well. You can defiantly smell the Argan Oil in the formula. My hair has been smoother and softer, since I have been using it. 
    PRICE: $6.99 - 3FL OZ, $18 - 8FL OZ, or $40 - 33.8FL OZ


    - Adds incredible softness and shine 
    - Protects hair from thermal damage 
    - Speeds drying time up to 40% 
    - Restores optimal moisture 
    - Revitalizes and repairs 
    - Seals cuticle & protects color
    - Smoothes and softens
    - Enriched with Omega-6, Lipids, Antioxidants, Vitamin E and Natural Moisture Factors 
    - Made with Certified Argan Oil of Morocco

This was my favorite product in the haircare collection sampler. This just gave my hair the extra added moisture it needed. It made it super soft and super shiny! I never would of thought something in such a small package would have such a huge affect.  I also like that when I straighten my hair, it puts an added protection barrier around it. 
                                          PRICE: $9.99 - 1FL OZ or $25 - 4FL OZ



I want to know! What do you think about Derm Organic? Have you ever tried their products? If not, which one's do you think you would want to try? I love hearing your questions and comments below. So, feel free to leave them below.
