As many of you know I receive BoxyCharm subscription boxes every month and I have been getting them for over a year. Every once in a while I find a product in my box that I absolutely LOVE and I share it here. This month it is HANK & HENRY - Lip Love Lux Lipstick I’m a sucker for packaging, so let’s start there. As you can see it’s a beautiful colour and super glittery (I love glitter). Their signature owl is at the top of the lipstick which is the button you push to pop the lipstick out of the bottom. When I twisted this lipstick up I was SHOOOOOK. It’s SUCH a beautiful colour and the pink glitter in the lipstick is so shimmery and beautiful. I immediately had to try it on and I fell in love. My only complaint is that the lipstick stains. So, when wearing this, make sure you have a good makeup remover to take it off at the end of the day. This lipstick has a small range of colours and retails for $18. Totally worth it IMO. HANK & HENRY - Lip Love Lux Lipstick 5/5 ⭐️‘S #CherieCreator

I’ve posted past reviews of some items that I have received in my boxycharm subscription box. I am excited to post this one because it was a real score imo. Usually I will use my CeraVe moisturizer but when I saw this GLAMGLOW - MOISTURETRIP Omega-Rich Face Moisturizer in my boxy, I had to try it out. I am pleased to say that this moisturizer is wonderful! My only problem? The price tag. I find that my CeraVe moisturizer works just as well as this one for half the price. If you are one who does not need to focus on the price tag, then of course you can opt for this little guy. But for me? I can’t afford $70 to give my skin a moisture boost. Anyways, the product applies nicely, not greasy and doesn’t sit on top of your skin in a slimy gross layer. It absorbs right in and makes your skin feel nice and soft. A little of this product goes a long way! A bit of a scent, but not an unpleasant one and not too strong. Overall I give this product 5/5 ⭐️’s (I didn’t let the price tag affect my review). #CherieCreator

These little guys were also received in my box from Cherie! I’m not a HUGE fan of under-eye gels, but I do still use them once in a while. I loved the fact that these ones are 100% vegan/cruelty free. (Great job choosing these types of products Cherie!) One of my biggest annoyances with under-eye gels is that they tend to slide around my face. The do not stay in place and slide down and I have to constantly push them back up into place. This was not a concern with these specific ones. I actually found that they stayed in place nicely, although it didn’t feel like they had enough of the serum on them. That could be why they didn’t slide around so much. These particular gels had a very nice scent. Very subtle, but still pleasant. I always put my under-eye gels in the fridge and take out when applying as the coolness of them really targets the puffiness around my eyes. Overall, the work for that purpose, but I don’t see them being a go-to product of mine. I can get cheaper ones that do the same thing. Either way, I loved trying the new product and once again I thank you Cherie! #CherieCreator

I recently received a box from Cherie and it had the Supergoop! - 100% Mineral Smooth & Poreless Matte Screen SPF 40 inside. I was really excited to try this product because this brand has stellar reviews. My only concern was whether it would pill on my skin. This concern was put to rest once I applied it the first time. The product feels very nice on my skin. I usually have very dry skin so I moisturize daily and was a little worried since matte products are not usually ones I reach for first. However, this product was not drying in the least. Application was smooth and I instantly saw results. My pores were slightly blurred, the shininess of my skin was dulled and smooth. The product has a nice tint to it that blended nicely with my skin and a little bit goes a long way. Overall I give the product a 10/10 ⭐️’s. I will definitely be purchasing again once this one is gone. THANK YOU CHERIE!!! #CherieCreator

-Hi! Thanks for reading me in advance. ✨- Buttne is a shorthand for butt acne. Which is a very common and uncomfortable skin condition so don’t feel bad about it. 😋 In addition of giving you a very bad bump in your butt it is also very painful and itchy as well. Butt acne is not usually the common acne, is a folliculitis. What is a folliculitis? Well, is a mild infection of the hair follicle that leads to pus pimples or red bumps. This non regular pimple are caused by a combination of your follicles getting blocked and a bacterial infection. Sometimes the causes are very gross, or they can be a “wait, really!?” 😳 If you keep your wet sweaty clothes after you hit the gym, then expect buttne. If you spend long hours sitting down, then this friction and irritation will cause those follicles to get clogged. If your case is wearing undies past their time, which is gross, but totally expect Buttne with this. Do not wear tight-fitting clothes too much either! This traps sweat and oil against your skin, which... you know what can happen. Let’s say you have these, well there is not problem with it. We got the solution! 😗 I suggest you to try these at home options to help your peach look better. 🙊 Try a salicylic acid body wash. This will help you to unclogged those pores by exfoliating your skin. You can also try to target your butt with a benzoyl peroxide body wash. This is very effective to treat acne and folliculitis because of its antimicrobial ingredients. You can also bright up acne marks with glycolic acid. Try to moisturize your butt with a lactic acid lotion whenever you get the chance. Don’t feel scare, this won’t clog your pores. If you shave, try to shave the right way. Don’t go against the grain of your hair. If these solutions or any other don’t work. Then a consultation with a dermatologist will help you more. :) I useful tip is to leave the acne medication sit on your skin for 8-10 minutes. This way it can penetrate the skin before washing it off. Maybe put the product before you step on the shower, shampoo your hair, condition your hair, maybe shave, sing some songs. And then wash it off :) Some good products for Buttne: PanOxyl - Acne Foaming Wash Benzoyl Peroxide 10% Maximum Strength Neutrogena - Rapid Clear Stubborn Acne Cream Cleanser PETER THOMAS ROTH - Max Complexion Salicylic Acid Pore Refining Pads skinfix - Resurface+ Glycolic Renewing Scrub Amlactin - Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion I hope this little info helps you out! Let me know if you try them, and which one worked for you! :) There is not shame on having Buttne. I myself have experience this and is totally normal! Enjoy your day! 🥰

PROJECT E BEAUTY - Skin Rejuvenation Photon Mask I can’t even believe how great this mask is! I decided to give LED treatment a try after getting some professional facials and having them use the lights on me. I’ve been battling adult acne for the past 10 years. I was always in a cycle of horrible hormonal acne that never fully went away. The only things that even remotely worked, were some harsh acne treatments. But those dried out my skin so much, It wasn’t worth it for the little bit that they worked. Then I tried this face mask. Just WOW! I’ve been using it for 3 weeks and I currently have absolutely no acne. I haven’t tried the other colours much yet, to see how they work. But the blue light for acne is life changing! Im using the mask for 20-30m minutes, 4-5 days a week. I’m planning on maybe only using it 3 days a week now that my acne is gone, just for upkeep. I can’t wait to try the other colours to see how it works for wrinkles and reducing sun spots. I’ve already thrown away hundreds of dollars in products that only worked a little bit because this is the only thing you need, along with a cleanser and moisturizer.

If you clicked on this post, you are probably suffering from thinning hair or you know someone who have thinning hair or you might be kind of freaking out that you might be losing your hair. No worries, let me share my hair growth story and products that helps me with my concerns. I have a bit thin hair around my hairline that shows through whenever my hair gets longer when I put it back in a bun or pony tail, people can actually kind of see my scalp which is always depressing. Especially when I see myself in a picture, that area specifically catches all my attention. Kiehl's - Amino Acid Shampoo According to dermatologist, this shampoo actually works very well for hair growth especially for people who has alopecia (which is genetical). I do have a friend who have used this system and her hair grew back. I used to have thick hair when I was in high school. I suffered terrible hair loss in my last year of college and it suddenly became an issue for me. I tried this system because of my friend and it works well for me. The effect was not immediate but I do see a lot of regrowth on my hairlines. Kiehl's - Amino Acid Conditioner I didn’t noticed much in the first month of trying it, but I got this one on discount in a Duo, so I decided to use it up before buying new ones. It was about 6 months, I started to get compliment on my hair after continuously using this product. I came to notice that my hair does look completely different than last year. It was shiny, full, and glory. I also feel that my scalp is healthier. I believe this products is one of the lines that does what it says. I agree it is a little bit expensive, but that’s because they put in all of the right ingredients to help you have thicker and more luscious hair.

It is the worst when you have spent time and effort in creating a perfect eye makeup look, while notice that the eyeshadow has worn off after a few hours later. This is the problem most of us has been dealing with since we started to do eye makeup. Especially for those who wear makeup all day long, usually find that the eyeshadow is creasing and fading in the afternoon. How to find a solution against this problem may be what you want to know. I suggest you to buy an eye primer. And my favorite eye primer is the NARS - Smudgeproof Eyeshadow Base. Hope you give it a try! This NARS eyeshadow base is one of the most popular eye primer selling in Sephora. It retails for $26, not cheap, but worth any penny. The first time I Bought it was because a Sephora sales recommended it to me. She said this one sold well and owned a lots favors. After I used it, I could tell why it’s so popular. Now I have recommended it to many friends around me, and most of them also like it. This eye primer completely helps my to get ready for eye makeup. It has lightweight formula which dries instantly on my lids without feeling thick or overloaded. Its mineral-powder and polymer blend keep whatever you apply on top of this primer on lockdown. Just as its name implied, it prevents my eyeshadow from smudging. Unlike other primers, NARS' base is completely clear, so it won’t affect the eyeshadow finish. Plus, it enhances the eyeshadow’s pigment and color intensity as it smooths and evens out the skin tone. It’s easy to apply, and since you don't need much, it lasts for a long time.
