Best Of Beauty 2019

by Totally TashLeave a Comment on Best Of Beauty 2019

Over the past year, I have tried a lot of great (and not so great) beauty products. With that said, I decided the best way to close out 2019 and the decade was to reveal my Fav Finds from the past year. Check them out below!

Best Anti-Aging Product: Dr. Brandt’s Needles No More Expression Line Smoother – https://shopstyle.it/l/bcdzp

This is my fav find of 2019! I seriously call it Botox in a bottle. It uses Peptides to relax the muscles underneath the skin, essentially numbing them. I use this on my forehead and I started noticing a difference after the first day of using it. Now I can’t live without it.

Best Toner: Pixi Beauty Glow Tonic – https://shopstyle.it/l/bcdBc

I’ll admit I was skeptical about this toner… until I tried it! It helped even out my skin tone, get rid of breakouts and left my skin glowing.

Best Daytime Eye Cream: Robin McGraw Revelation’s Dot Your Eyes – https://www.robinmcgrawrevelation.com/collections/treatments/products/dot-your-eyes-1

This eye cream uses power peptides to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and dark circles. A great eye cream for the daytime.

Best Nighttime Eye Cream: Kate Somerville Line Release – https://shopstyle.it/l/bcdEt

I love this eye cream for night time. It does a great job of moisturizing the undereye area and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Best Hair Vitamins: Hum Nutrition Hair Sweet Hair http://www.humnutrition.com Code: 1B54BB for $10 Off

Who knew hair vitamins could make such a huge difference? Well, let me tell you, they can and do. I have been loving these Hum Nutrition Hair Sweet Hair vitamins. Not only do they taste like strawberry candy (I seriously look forward to taking these everyday!), they work. Ever since having kids, my hair started thinning and falling out, thus, why you always saw me with my hair up in photos. I started taking these and after a couple months, my hair stopped falling out and growing in super healthy. Now I wear my hair down all the time!

Best Anti-Aging Moisturizer: Kate Somerville Deep Tissue Repair – https://shopstyle.it/l/bceCl

Looking for a great anti-aging moisturizer that not only makes your skin look more youthful but also doesn’t make you break out? Check out Kate Somerville’s Deep Tissue Repair. It has quickly become my fav nighttime moisturizer.

Best Acne Product: Mario Badescu Drying Lotion – https://shopstyle.it/l/bceBt

Looking for a acne product that shortens the lifespan of those pesky breakouts? Check out this Mario Badescu Drying Lotion. Super easy to use and helps dry out those breakouts in no time. Just put a Q-Tip in the bottle (DO NOT SHAKE FIRST), and apply this to your breakouts before bed and wash it off in the morning.

Best Natural Deodorant: Kopari Deodorant – https://shopstyle.it/l/bceCv

The switch to Natural Deodorant was a struggle this year. Most of them do not work, and left me smelling so gross (seriously… even the kids commented on how bad I stunk 🤢), that was until I tried Kopari’s Coconut Oil Deodorant. And let me tell you… It is amazing! It works even better than those non-natural deodorants I’ve tried. Check it out!

Best Dry Shampoo: DryBar’s Detox Dry Shampoo – https://shopstyle.it/l/bceBC

Finding a good Dry Shampoo can be rough, because let’s be honest… Most of them just don’t work. But that is not the case for DryBar’s Detox Dry Shampoo. As soon as I tried it, I quickly fell in love. I have been able to get up-to three days out of my hair with this baby… And I used to be lucky if I could even get to day two hair!

Best Face Mask: Cellcosmet CellRadiance Mask – https://shopstyle.it/l/bcdCn

By now, most of you know I love my Face Masks, and I have tried a lot of great (and not so great) masks this past year. But alas, there can only be one Best. And that would be this Cellcosmet CellRadiance Mask. The nanostructure of the actual mask helps it adhere perfectly for the skin. But most importantly, it showed great immediate results. My skin literally looked and felt tighter, hydrated and radiant.

Best Setting Spray: Urban Decay All Nighter – https://shopstyle.it/l/bceBK

I finally made the move from MAC’s setting spray to this Urban Decay All Nighter because it is amazing! My makeup stays in place until I’m ready to take it off. Now that’s a win in my book.

Best Skincare Subscription: Beauteque – https://www.beautequemonthly.com Code: TotalTash25 for 25% Off

If you love K-beauty products, than you will love Beauteque’s monthly Beauty Box and Mask Maven subscription options. I have found so many great products this way.

A “Yeouthful” Ingredient – Retinol

by Totally TashLeave a Comment on A “Yeouthful” Ingredient – Retinol

I don’t know about you, but as each year ticks by, I continue to search for products that will help keep my skin looking “yeouthful.” Retinol is a great ingredient to do just that… And when combined with the ingredients of Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin E and Aloe, you have Yeouth Skincare’s Retinol 2.5 Serum.

Ingredients:

  • Retinol – Retinol is a form of Vitamin A that stimulates the renewal of skin cells, therefore diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, smoothing out the skin and even preventing acne outbreaks.
  • Hyaluronic Acid – This is a miracle ingredient that hydrates the skin and stimulates cell regeneration.
  • Vitamin E – This antioxidant protects the skin from free radicals and reduces skin damage caused by UV rays. It is also commonly referred to as a “wound healer.”
  • Aloe – This ingredient is known to soothe the skin and reduce irritations and inflammations.

The Verdict: I have been using this serum for the past few weeks, and while it can take months to see the full benefits of retinol, but I have noticed my skin smoothing out.

Please note – Since this product contains retinol, my skin has been more sensitive to exfoliants and certain ingredients since I started using it. But the redness does go away after about half an hour, and the Aloe and Hyaluronic Acid help keep the skin soothed and moisturized.

For The Mud Of A Sheet Mask

by Totally TashLeave a Comment on For The Mud Of A Sheet Mask

I love mud masks for detoxifying the skin. They help clear up acne, minimize pores, exfoliate, fight the signs of aging and give the skin a deep cleanse.

Now, imagine that mud mask is a turned into a sheet mask. That is exactly what Patchology did with their SmartMud Detox Mask. It’s a mud mask without the mess… well, at least most of the mess. LOL. It is a little messy with application because the mud on the sheet, but much better than taking it straight out of a jar.

The Verdict: This 2 piece mud mask is another Pathology winner! Using volcanic ash sourced from South Korea, this mask left my skin deeply cleansed and glowing.

Mojito and a mask? Now that sounds like the perfect way to kick off the weekend!

I have been having a lot of breakouts recently (I swear, I have more breakouts in my 30s than I did in my teens! Anyone else?), so when I saw this fun looking mask at Riley Rose I knew I had to try it.

  • Peppermint Leaf Extract – relieves skin irritation, fights free radicals and reduces redness.
  • Coconut – moisturizes, fights the signs of aging and stimulates the production of collagen.

The Verdict: It totally works! I used this face mask last night, and my skin felt instantly smoother afterwards, my breakouts were less pronounced and my skin looked so much better this morning. Plus… it smells like a Mojito! If you struggle with breakouts, you should totally check it out.

An Anti-Aging “Prescriptment”

by Totally TashLeave a Comment on An Anti-Aging “Prescriptment”
Processed With Darkroom

So… It’s the first Face Mask Friday of 2019! I’m excited to see what fun face masks I find this year, and I started with this Dr. Jart+ All That Contours Prescriptment (yes, that’s how they spell it) Face Mask. Infused with some great ingredients (see below), this mask helps with anti-aging and skin elasticity. I don’t know about you but I’m all about anything that helps my skin look younger!

Ingredients:

  • Caffeine – Caffeine firms the skin and helps with contours.
  • Isomerized Safflower Acid – This ingredient focuses on improving skin elasticity.
  • Aloe Leaf Juice – Aloe is an amazing hydrator that also soothes the skin.

This was an interesting face mask as it came in two pieces that were more of a stretchy gel material. The bottom half even goes around your ears to hold it in place (which also makes it really tight). It was super easy to apply, and the best part? My skin appeared to look younger right after I used it. I love it when a mask shows immediate results, so this face mask is a winner in my book. Great way to kick off the New Year!

The Forgotten Skincare… A “Yeouth”-ful Neck!

by Totally TashLeave a Comment on The Forgotten Skincare… A “Yeouth”-ful Neck!

The neck and décolletage areas are frequently ignored in a skincare routine (thus making them the first giveaways of age). Because of this, I was excited to try Yeouth Skincare’s Neck Firming Cream. With Green Tea, Argireline and Vitamin C, this neck cream not only moisturizes, it tightens sagging skin, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improves skin elasticity. But how? Let’s take a closer look at these ingredients.

Green Tea – Green Tea has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory abilities, which can slow down the signs of aging. It has also been known to reduce the effects of sun damage.

Argireline – Argireline is a peptide commonly referred to as “Botox in a Bottle.” It stimulates collagen production and can theoretically limit the ability of neurotransmitters to activate facial movement, therefore reducing fine lines and wrinkles.

Vitamin C – Vitamin C is an antioxidant with anti-aging properties that brightens skin, improves hydration and can even out your skin tone.

All of these combined can make for a great neck cream. I’ve been using this product for almost two weeks now, and noticed a difference after the first use. It is incredibly moisturizing and definitely helps combat those neck wrinkles and sagging skin along the jawline. Now I can wrap all these Christmas gifts as the neck cream works its magic.

Cryogenic Skincare

by Totally TashLeave a Comment on Cryogenic Skincare

Let me start by saying that I love Kate Somerville products, so I was super excited to try her Tight ‘n Cryogenic Tightening Gel. It uses a system inspired by cryogenics combined with anti-aging ingredients. It is cold when applied, and I started noticing my skin looking tighter and smoother after the first application. It works!

The downside for me… it makes my skin break out, so I am super bummed about that. I will be trying another Kate Somerville product to prevent the oncoming signs of aging. Stay tuned!
