Tatcha Silk Canvas dry skin review

Tatcha Silk Canvas (dry skin) review

I’ve been testing this luxurious primer for a couple of weeks.

  • It’s made from pressed silk, and claims to blur the look of pores, minimize shine, protect skin from clogged pores, and have anti-aging superfoods in it.
  • The container is super beautiful and luxurious and it even comes sealed inside a bag to prevent it from drying out before being opened.
  • It comes with a spatula and you only need a tiny amount for your entire face.
  • I tried this multiple times in different ways and I love how it legitimately blurs my forehead fine lines and the pores around my nose/cheeks.
  • However, it doesn’t work well with my dry skin under makeup. It pills in bits as I attempt to put foundation over it, no matter what skincare I use under it.

Here’s a texture shot:

✔️Final thoughts: If you have normal to oily skin, I’d recommend trying it because you might love it. It leaves skin very smooth and matte.
I have dry skin and I love it on no-foundation days over my moisturizer. It just makes my skin look naturally flawless.

Pat McGrath Labs – Sublime Perfection Foundation review

Pat McGrath Labs – Sublime Perfection Foundation (Dry skin review)

I was incredibly excited and grateful to be sent this beautiful foundation to test!
I’ve tested it for 3 weeks because I wanted to make a very honest, proper review.

  • The bottle is SUPER luxurious, heavy and the most beautiful I’ve ever had.
  • This is designed to be applied with your fingers and has to be set with powder. When applied with a brush, I didn’t achieve a seamless blend. When not set with powder, it moved around my face all day and settled in lines.
  • When applied as directed, the finish is a very natural, sheer coverage which you can build up a little, if done carefully.
  • The formula is very fluid and liquid.

Overall, I didn’t find this to be a great fit for me because I don’t enjoy using setting powder. I have dry skin and find that powders always find a way of emphasizing any dryness around my mouth and nose.
The coverage is very natural looking, but not very dense. I think someone with normal skin who enjoys a natural look and likes finishing powder would love this foundation!

I received the shade Light 2, which I would classify as “Very Fair”. I can wear it, but I think my perfect shade would be Light 3 (my typical foundation shade is Fair Neutral).

Here are some swatches comparing the Pat McGrath Labs foundation in Light 2, to the IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream in Fair, and the CYO Lifeproof Foundation in 101:

L’Oreal Elvive Rapid Reviver Review

L’Oreal Elvive Rapid Reviver Review

I don’t like to review hair products until I’ve used them several times, so I waited so review this product until I used it for a few weeks and formed a solid opinion.

This deep conditioner claims to give you rapidly revive damaged hair, infused with a damage-repairing serum, almond and protein, all in just 1 minute.

I’m the kind of person who usually needs to leave conditioner on for a looong time for it to do anything, (sometimes I run out of hot water in winter waiting in the shower) so this seemed like a great selling point for me.

After using it for about 3 weeks, I can say it definitely does work fast, and I get the same result washing it quickly than leaving it on for longer. It soaks into my hair pretty quickly!
I also like the smell!
That being said, I do find that it does weigh down my natural waves when I leave my hair natural instead of using a curling iron or styling straight. But this is going to happen with any heavy conditioner, if you have wavy -but not curly- hair.

Overall it’s a good conditioner to use in a hurry, but I will only use it when I’m styling my hair with tools.
❤️Thanks to Influenster for sending me this complimentary product to test!

PS. On my face I’m wearing:
– Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation in “Ecru” (slightly too dark for me, it’s a sample) + Buxom Lip Gloss in “Brandy” + IT Cosmetics Superhero Mascara – Top is from Ann Taylor LOFT.

L’Oreal Revitalift Derm Intensives review

L’Oreal Revitalift Derm Intensives review

For the past few weeks I’ve been using two face serums from L’Oreal: The Revitalift Derm Intensives “1.5% Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum” (pictured left) and “10% Pure Vitamin C concentrate”(pictured right).

✔️The Hyaluronic Acid serum claims you’ll have more supple skin from the first day of use. And it’s true! I have very dry skin which few serums have helped with. I usually have to rely on a super heavy face cream if I want supple skin. But from the first moment I put this serum on, I felt the difference. It looks clear and watery but doesn’t feel watery on your face. It’s very spreadable (a few drops are enough) and you feel it working the second you put it on. It makes it easier to apply my cream afterwards and I feel like I also use less of it because my skin is already less parched thanks to this serum. I am going to be using this a lot this winter!

✔️The Vitamin C concentrate really surprised me because I thought I wasn’t going to like it due to my dry skin. However it is surprisingly moisturizing as well. I don’t really have discoloration or spots on my face that need brightening, however I have noticed an overall glow to my face after using it for weeks, and it also makes my creams go on easily afterwards.

I have not actually used these under makeup so I can’t speak as to how they wear under foundation.

?Overall opinion: I actually love both of these but I think I love the Vitamin C one a little more! These products really pleasantly surprised me.
I received these products for free from @Influenster , and this is my honest experience with these products.
