Now that I have had the A Perfect World line for over a month, and have been using a few of the products in my daily routine, I wanted to provide you all with a quick review of the products I love and what results I have actually seen from using them on a daily basis!
So the 4 products I will be reviewing include:
Origins A Perfect World Age Defense Eye Cream with SPF 20
Origins A Perfect World Age Defense Skin Guardian
Origins A Perfect World Age Defense Treatment Lotion with White Tea
Origins A Perfect World Antioxidant Cleanser with White Tea
I really wanted to share my opinion with you after continuous use of the products, and specifically the changes I have seen in my skin over the past month.
So lets start with the Treatment Lotion with White Tea. I have been using this product in the morning when I wake up and at night before bed. The scent is consistent with the rest of the line, and since it is alcohol-free it doesn’t irritate or burn the skin, eye area, or nose. I apply this product to a cotton ball and glide it across my face. The product is cool and tightens my pores effortlessly. It leaves skin feeling clean with a slight tightening sensation.
Once the Treatment Lotion has dried, I apply the Skin Guardian. This product is by far my favorite from the line. The texture is like a gel, and leaves my skin feeling like silk! I use 1.5 pumps and disperse the product over my face evenly. I can definitely tell a difference in my skin overnight from this product. My skin is softer and smoother. In the mornings it makes makeup application so simple and gives me a “primed” canvas to smoothly apply my liquid foundation.
At night when I shower, I use the Antioxidant Cleanser with White Tea. This creamy cleanser removes all dirt and make up from my face, leaving my skin feeling squeaky clean, yet not over dried. I am prone to breakouts and redness but I have noticed since I have started using this product, and this line in general, my skin has balanced out and I create less oil on my forehead, my redness has subsided, and uneven texture and breakouts are minimal – if even at all! If you are thinking of trying out this line, I would recommend purchasing this product first.
I have been finding the eye cream most valuable on days I decide not to wear makeup. It lightens the area under my eyes a slight bit while hydrating. Plus, the added bonus of the sunscreen means I am protected while letting my skin breathe.
My regimen:
AM: Treatment Lotion with White Tea – Skin Guardian – Eye cream
PM: Antioxidant Cleanser with White Tea – Treatment Lotion with White Tea – Skin Guardian
If you are debating on trying out the collection, I highly recommend it for breakout prone skin, prone to t-zone oiliness, redness, and even if you just want something with anti-aging properties. This line has truly worked wonders on my skin, and I love that I can feel good about the product that I am using because it is from Origins!
I hope you have found this review helpful, and will give this line a try!
Once summertime rolls around I always find myself eyeing the racks for the perfect tropical floral piece. There is something about the June heat that really brings forth those tropical floral, pineapple, and flamingo vibes! I recently found this gorgeous dress from Groopdealz and had to get my hands on it!
This lightweight dress features an intense side slit with a conservative internal layer, halter neckline with exposed back and shoulder straps, self-tying back, a comfortable elastic waist and embroidered cut-out accents.
Yes, it sounds like a lot is going on, but this dress looks like a simple wrap dress with a beautiful resort-ready tropical print! I decided to pair it with woven tassel accented flip-flops from Stage, and my favorite straw hat. This complete look is perfect for vacation, the beach, or even brunch! Anywhere the sun is out this dress will have you looking your best and ready for wherever the day takes you!
Groopdealz promo items sell out quickly, so I have found a similar dress from Shein!
Summer is here and that means tan skin. Since I am super pale, and have a history of skin cancer in my family, I love to find alternatives to achieving a luminous glow. This year I had the opportunity to try out COOLA Tan products!
If you havent heard of COOLA, they are an amazing sun care company creating quality products that are vegan, cruelty free, and are non GMO.
The Tan line currently consists of two amazing products, the sunless tan anti-aging face serum, and the sunless tan dry oil mist. Both products offer gradual tan results, perfect for year-round use.
Packaging: The packaging is beautiful! The cocoa and aqua packaging is textured with a subtle matte feel, similar to NARS products. The box slides open to reveal a dark brown glass bottle with a white cap. Both products are securely sealed ensuring oil leaks will not occur.
Scent: The scent is a light cherry scent. It sort of reminds me of a white cherry icee scent. This was really surprising to me as most sunless tanning products have a musty banana or coconut scent.
Product impressions: The dry oil is light and sprays evenly, making application quick and simple. Since the results are gradual, you don’t have to worry about streaky mistakes! The anti-aging face serum is a clear product with a silky finish. It applies easily and absorbs quickly, leaving skin smooth and nourished.
I also was able to try out the Tinted Mineral Liplux in the shade Bonfire. This lip product offers a brilliant sheer bronze shade and SPF 30 coverage. I enjoy using this lipstick on days when I know I will be outdoors. My lips are protected and have a gorgeous summer bronze glow.
Try out COOLA for quality sun care and sunless tanning products that you can truly feel good about wearing, and your skin will thank you for! – please also note that the tan line does not include SPF*
I find myself on the hunt a lot for work transitional tops. Tops that I can wear with shorts on the weekends, but also style up for work. I luckily found this amazing piece recently from Romwe that fit the bill! This lovely olive babydoll top has such a cute oversized style to it! There are just so many fun ways to style this top and look amazing! – Here I will share with you my favorite.
The best way to wear this top is with skinnies, heels, and a long necklace. I decided dark wash denim would be ideal since the shade of olive is on the lighter side, (which can tend to appear more casual) and cognac accessories to bring the look into Summer.
These woven block heel sandals from Madden Girl are so adorable! I have been wearing them on repeat for their style ability, as well as, their comfort factor! Everyone needs them in their wardrobe this season! I also chose a similar shade tote to coordinate this look.
To sum this up, it is fun to purchase basics in new and interested silhouettes because the are super transitional! This shirt has an everyday t-shirt material, but because of the fun hem and oversized design, it is perfect for dressing up and saying fashionable at the office! (if you work where there is a business casual setting, like I do!)
So check out this awesome top at Romwe! Its only $14.99 so I’m sure it will sell out fast!
