Calling ALL Lip Gloss Junkies
I am a bonified lip gloss junkie. I love lip gloss, I use it manically, and consider it my favorite makeup item. With that being said... I wanted to share with you what my favorite lip gloss is, philosophy lip shine, vanilla birthday cake. This is by far, the BEST lip gloss I have ever used. It goes on clear, it is not sticky, and tastes absolutely fabulous. I cannot rave enough about it.
Anti-Aging for your 20s, 30s, 40s and Beyond
So I was thinking today, at what age should you start a skin care regimen... Well, I feel it is NEVER to early to start applying sunscreen daily. And when you start wearing makeup, you should implement a skin care regimen, which should include the basic cleansing and moisturizing. Start taking care of your skin early, to prevent future damage!
In case you did not know, I LOVE PHILOSOPHY PRODUCTS. In my opinion Philosophy products are the bees knees. My skin has completely changed for the better since I have started using them. I only use Philosophy for my skin care regimen, and I could not be happier.
If you’re wondering what age to begin using anti-aging products, read on…
Using anti-aging products can begin at any age. Many people who are interested in anti-aging products worry they are too young or too old. Whether you are in your 20s, 30s or 40s or older, you can start taking steps today to fight the signs of aging by incorporating anti-aging products into your skin care regimen.
Anti-Aging Products in Your 20s
If you are in your 20s, you should use anti-aging products with prevention in mind. There are two anti-aging products that you should use as often as possible to treat fine lines and wrinkles early: anti-aging products with sunscreen (SPF 15 or higher) and targeted anti-aging facial moisturizers.
- Try the anti-aging product Philosophy when hope is not enough spf, age defense uva/uvb spf 20 broad spectrum sunscreen, with SPF 20. The sun's UV rays are one of the leading causes of aging skin, so stay out of the sun as much as possible, wearing big, floppy hats and using lots of sunscreen to cover your face.
- Skin at this age is also prone to occasional break-outs, so in addition to your anti-aging products, use a product like Philosophy on a clear day, blemish serum for adult acne to quickly treat blemishes without harming skin.
- Make sure to keep skin cleansed using cleansers and toners with natural ingredients in addition to your anti-aging products. If you are in a rush, use a product like Philosophy purity made simple, one-step facial cleanser to quickly remove excess oil or makeup.
Anti-Aging Products in Your 30s
Once you are in your 30s, it’s time to expand your anti-aging skin care routine. In addition to continuing to use anti-aging products like facial moisturizer and sunscreen, it’s important to add an anti-aging firming lotion.
- Philosophy save me is one such anti-aging product to add to your anti-aging skin regimen. This anti-aging product can be used before you apply moisturizer. Use it at night, because it contains retinol, which can make your skin more sensitive to the sun.
- Also prevent lines from forming around your eyes with the easy to use Philosophy eye believe, deep wrinkle peptide balm for eyes and upper lip, and Philosophy hope in a tube eye and lip firming cream
- Add an extra step to your skin care regimen by incorporating Philosophy the microdelivery peel or face mask on a weekly basis. This will help keep skin throughly cleansed.
Anti-Aging Products in Your 40s & Beyond
Finally, once you reach your 40s and beyond, it’s important to add a specialized anti-aging cream that targets specific problem areas, such as wrinkles on skin or fine lines around the eyes.
- Anti-aging creams such as the Philosophy hope in a jar original formula for all skin types will help skin stay soft and supple, thereby reducing the appearance of wrinkles.
- Philosophy eye believe, deep wrinkle peptide balm for eyes and upper lipwill not only target fine lines, but also help lighten skin around the eyes.
- Reduce the appearance of age spots or freckles by using Philosophy a pigment of your imagination SPF 18 to lighten skin problem areas.
It’s never too early to begin using anti-aging products and achieve healthy, youthful skin!

Benefit's "Miss Popularity"
I have FINALLY tried Benefit Cosmetics Miss Popularity Highlighter for the face and eyes. It comes in this cute container, which many of Benefits Cosmetics do... I have to say, I love it. I have used it to slim my nose, highlight my brow bone, and make my lips look bigger. It is easy to use, and I will definitely purchase it again.
