philosophy ‘makeup optional’ skin kit for congested skin

Does your skin need to be decongested? Cover up is not a solution for clogged pores, mild blemishes, irregular texture or lack of skin radiance. The key is 24/7 exfoliation of your skin and the continuous shedding of your pore walls. The ‘makeup optional’ systems incorporate a weekly 2-phase microdelivery peel with a daily 4-step skin regimen. Our program will help decongest clogged pores, smooth irregular texture, even out skin tone and minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while restoring your radiance so makeup is truly an option.

Kit contains ‘purity made simple’ one-step facial wash (8 oz.), ‘when hope is not enough’ peptide-rich oil-free firming and lifting serum (1 oz.), ‘hope in a bottle’ topical treatment moisturizer for congested skin (2 oz.), ‘hope in a tube’ high-density eye and lip firming cream (0.5 oz.) and a three-week supply of the famous microdelivery peel foil packs

Rachel McAdams tells Instyle Magazine “I prefer Kiss Me mascara…It doesn’t smudge and you can take it off with water.”

Kiss Me Mascara is the original mascara invented to form tiny water-resistant “tubes” around your lashes rather than painting them like conventional mascaras. Once applied, the tubes bind to your lashes and cannot run, smudge, clump, or flake, even if you cry or rub your eyes.

Kiss Me Mascara will add both volume and length to give you a radiant natural look that lasts all day. Only when you are ready for removal, the tubes will effortlessly slide off your lashes into your hand without the use of a harsh makeup remover.

All it takes is the combination of lots of warm water and gentle pressure, from your fingertips, a washcloth or water pressure (i.e. shower) and the tubes will slide off your lashes effortlessly. Upon removal you will actually see the tiny tubes in your hand!

Kiss Me Mascara has been clinically tested to be non-irritating making it ideal for sensitive eyes, contact lens wearers, and active people in search of a mascara whose look, hold and ease of removal is without compromise.

The second lip product I had the pleasure to review was Jelly Pong Pong’s Lo-Lip-Pop in Raspberry Parfait. At first I was taken back by the bright pink color but as I applied it the color seemed to mellow a bit and I was left with a great pink lip color. The gloss coats your lips really well and leaves them shiny and soft.  Jelly Pong Pong has 6 shades to choose from with great descriptions to help you pick, I am eyeing Stawberry Slush.

Glitzy Hollywood gloss in delish lolly flavours. Gives a silky plastic sheen for luscious, succulent lips. High in shimmer and fun! Available in 6 utterly uninhibited shades.Bonus : Hot pink reflective tube makes it so easy to find in a clutterred bag.
