Game Changers: Skincare

What skin care or makeup products have come into your life and been complete game changers?
I seriously want to know, so leave a comment below and fill me in on these magical items!

I am very much skin care (which I feel like I say every time I do a beauty related post) so mine are mostly skin care items, but I do have a few makeup items too.
Let's just get into it.

1. Forever and always the Neutrogena Pore Refining face wash.  I can always tell when I've been neglecting this product and always end up back to it after trying out new things.

2. Foreo Luna Mini 2.  I just bought this 2 weeks ago.  I'm in love.  It feels so good and gentle on the skin plus my face is so soft after.  It just makes me feel like I'm doing something to my skin.

3. Another cleansers I've been trying out is the Kiehls Calendula Deep Cleansing Foaming Face Wash and I really love this as just a gentle everyday cleanser.

4. Kiehl's Midnight Recovery oil.  I hate the smell of this but my skin thanks me in the morning which a beautiful glow.

5. Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Eye is a great eye cream and I have noticed a difference around my eyes.  I wake up with brighter eyes in the morning and it hydrates pretty well too!

6. Kiehl's Hydro Plumping Re-texturizing Serum Concentrate.
I received a sample of this and fell in love, so of course I bought the full size.  It is super hydrating and I love the light feel of it on my skin.

7. A cream I've been using for a couple years now is the Origin's Ginseng Cream.  My skin likes this,  I like it.  It moisturizes but doesn't feel heavy.  Unfortunately I am getting bored and want to try something knew.

8. Fresh eye cream.  This stuff.  I didn't want to repurchase it (hello, poor) but the delicate skin around my eyes drink it up.

9. Caudalie Instant Detox mask.  I have tried quite a few face masks and have my handful that I love, but this one is my all time favorite.  When I first tried it a year ago, I broke out the next day and vowed to never use it again, but hello, $40 is a lot for a mask, so I read up on it and tried it again.  "Instant Detox" means it's going to draw the toxins out of your skin and bring them to the surface (pimples), so this made much more sense.  Now I use this mask about once a week and my skin thanks me.

10.  Paula's Choice Skin Perfect 2% BHA Liquid.  I feel lost without this stuff. I use it before I apply moisturizers and serums in the morning and I am almost positive this is what keeps my skin so clear.

11. Frank's coffee body scrub (not pictured) and lip scrub.  I like trying the different scents (coconut, mint, chocolate etc) but I can do with the original as I am a coffee fiend and love the smell!  Plus it makes my skin oh so soft.  The lip scrub smells soooo good and feels so good on the lips!


12. I have two favorites to go at thirteen and that is because they are so freaking expensive and I usually only get them as samples!  Sunday Riley Good Genes, my god I would buy this stuff all the time if I could.  I bought a full size once and I think it lasted 3 months?  My skin loved it, I loved it, everyone involved was happy with this product. . . and then the price went up because of our sucky dollar.  Lancome Genefique, I've had 3 samples of this.  This first time I received it I never bothered with it for months until a lady said it was the most amazing thing ever. Now I love it but can't swallow the price.

14. Lastly, two makeup removers! I have repurchased the Neutrogena Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover countless times and it is just the best for getting rid of stubborn mascara or eyeliner.

15. A new favorite is the L'Occitane Cleansing Oil. I freaking love this stuff! It's so good at removing a full face of makeup without having to rub at the eyes, it literally melts off your face. I love it.

I hope you enjoyed this! And Please let me know your game changers in the comments.
Have a great week!

Let's Talk About Frank

Meet Frank:

He likes you naked and dirty.

Frank is a coffee body scrub!  Perfect for me as I am a coffee lover.
I find two handfuls of this scrub is a sufficient amount for your entire body.
I use it on my problem areas first, my upper arms (where I tend to get bumps) and my thighs, then I continue on to the rest of my body including my face.

Frank claims to scrub away dry skin and help with cellulite and stretch marks.

I have used this scrub a total of three times now and even my boyfriend has used it.
I think we are both in love with Frank.

I find my skin so soft after, my arm bumps are getting better (but usually any scrub fixes that problem).
I think the fact that this is a coffee scrub had me sold instantly.

I would highly recommend this for anyone looking for a body scrub, it is fantastic.
It does leave some residue in the shower/bathtub after, as I found out later when Boyfriend asked me if I drank my coffee in the shower that morning.

I bought the original 200g Frank for $15.95 (Canadian) for myself and the peppermint version for $16.95 for a gift for my Mom, and then shipping was free.

This is not a sponsored post, Frank was purchased by me out of curiosity and I'm genuinely in love with him.
