Lena Menstrual Cup Review & Tips

Hey guys! This week I will be reviewing something that could get a little gross… The Lena Menstrual Cup! As a soon to be nurse, there are very few things that I find disgusting or taboo to talk about. If you are uncomfortable about reading about menstruation and the female anatomy, then stop reading now!

CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser & Lotion Review: Best Product for Eczema Prone Skin

Hey Guys! This week I will be talking about CeraVe Cleanser and Lotion. I have been using CeraVe for about 7 years. I was suggested to use it from my dermatologist because I have sensitive eczema prone skin. Through the years I mostly used the CeraVe lotion and used a very harsh “acne” cleanser. But for the last year or so I made the full time switch to solely using CeraVe cleanser and CeraVe moisturizer. I have noticed some great differences in my problem areas. Previously, I used to get terribly painful eczema rashes around my eyes (especially during the winter months). Since I have started using the cleanser & lotion together, I have developed no new eczema patches on my face… YAY! I use the CeraVe with my Clarisonic Mia. You can read more about that here . My only request from CeraVe is that they would come out with a product that had some “scrubbing” properties. ANYWAYS—you can read the rest of my review below!

DIY: Snickerdoodle Scrub

Hey guys! This week I will be doing a DIY scrub. I use this scrub as a pre-shave on my legs and to exfoliate the whole body. It is moisturizing, not abrasive, and makes your skin feel amazing! I have eczema and this scrub doesn't irritate it. This scrub smells exactly like snickerdoodle cookies. If you really wanted to you could eat it too ;) I hope you enjoy!

Clarisonic Mia 1 Review: Is it really worth the money?

Hey Guys! This week I will be reviewing the Clarisonic Mia 1. I have been wanting to try out this facial cleansing brush for quite some time. I finally caved and bought it. For those of you who don’t know, Clarisonic facial brushes claim to clean your face 6x better than regular washing with just your hands. The brush is supposed to give you softer clearer skin, and help you skin absorb products better (lotions/vitamin creams). It transmits sonic frequency of 300+ movements per second. Before buying my Mia 1, I went to Ulta to check out the different Clarisonic brushes. Many of you may believe that Clarisonic brushes spin but they actually don’t. The brushes “vibrate” extremely fast. I found that interesting. Before investing in this brush I did a lot of research of which one to get. Hopefully this blog helps you clear up any questions you have about Clarisonic devices! Happy reading :)
