How will I know if I will have to pay customs for giveaway prizes? Would that show up when I am adding to cart and placing my order? Or will it show up later? Thanks in advance!

I absolutely LOVE the Black Girl Sunscreen Kids SPF 50. It's just so creamy and nice for my dry tretinoin skin. BUT sadly I am thinking it might be causing pimples bc of all the oils in it? Has anyone experienced this? Anyone have a different SPF that is similar (creamy, hydrating, moisturizing, no white cast, no eye sting?)??? Please help!

I tried using The Ordinary 10% Azelaic acid suspension the other day and my face broke out with little bumps everywhere and my skin was rough for a few days! Lots of whiteheads even though that's not the type of acne I usually get. Has anyone else had this happen with this product?

 A few of them tore as I was getting them out, but it wasn't a huge deal. I will say that the shape is not quite right for my face, so I struggled with how to wear them 😅 but that might just be a me problem. 

I received this product for free from Baciel and Picky in exchange for my honest review. I had never tried eye patches before, so these were a really fun win for me. They are soaked in an essence which has sea algae, collagen, amino acids, and other soothing ingredients to help hydrate, depuff, and brighten the skin around the eyes. They stick well to the skin and don't fall off, which is awesome. I enjoy the cooling sensation and immediate hydration these give.

I will say, you have to shake pretty hard and spray pretty fast, cuz it separates pretty quickly again.

As the weather gets cold and we're running the heater and the air is dry, one of my favorite things to do is add a hydrating toner. This Beekman 1802 milk shake mist has been the perfect addition! This is the fiiiiinest mist I have ever used. Like I can hardly even feel it going on....I might even wish it was less fine 😬😅 but actually, it's so nice and the perfect thing for applying before a moisturizer or between steps in my routine. It's also SO PRETTY, it sparkles in the sunshine. The bi-phase thing is cool and you just shake it before spraying. I love the ingredients in this. It's soothing, hydrating, and basically all I want in a mist like this. If you're looking to add some hydration to your winter routine, I'd definitely recommend this!

I make a mess every time I try to use it cuz it's so slimy😂 sadly, this did not keep my skin feeling good. I first tried it overnight, but I woke up to such dehydrated skin. I then tried it as a daytime moisturizer, but my skin was feeling dry and almost itchy after just a few hours. I am so sad that this one hasn't worked out for me. I'm not really sure why!

I was so excited to finally try a moisturizer with snail mucin! This one boasts of its snail mucin to moisturize and help strengthen the skin barrier, collagen to help improve skin elasticity, and black bean to nourish and rejuvenate the skin. It also came with a cute lil spatula. The texture is super slimy and takes some getting used to! It sinks in super fast and you can definitely see the immediate glowy hydration it gives (my daughter wanted in on this video and she has way cuter hands than I do! 😍). I love the application and how it felt right away.

I received this product for free from Picky and Skin1004 in exchange for my honest review.

This is, in my opinion, the best Skin1004 product out there, and it's currently my favorite SPF. With a light gel cream texture and ingredients like centella asiatica, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide, this sun serum hydrates, calms, and moisturizes while still feeling lightweight on the skin.
I have zero issues with eye sting, pilling, or white cast. It blends in so effortlessly, and it has no added fragrance.
On me, it leaves a very natural finish, which I always appreciate. It works great by itself or under makeup, and I'm always reaching for it!
Of course, the packaging is very aesthetically pleasing and feels good in the hands, and I love a good pump. I am just so impressed with this sunscreen, and it's definitely one I would purchase again!

That being said, these tend to actually make my under eyes feel dry by themselves. I would definitely recommend using a cream on top of them to really lock in the hydration with some moisture.

First of all, these are hands down the cutest products I own! I mean the little polar bears?! So cute. A+ packaging! My daughter loves them too! These are two hydrating eye sticks. One has collagen too, which is great for the under eye area. Some other notable ingredients are hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and aloe. These also both smell amazing (added fragrance)! These have a very nice cooling effect to wake you up in the morning.
