Hi Beauties!
If you're new to my blog, Welcome. If you're returning, thanks so much for following along. :)
Recently I teamed up with DHC and Preen.Me to feature some Japanese skin care products. This bundle included:
*Deep Cleansing Oil
*Face Wash Powder
*Revitalizing Moisture Strips - eyes
*Revitalizing Booster Serum
*Astaxanthin Collagen All-in-one Gel
*Black Liquid Eyeliner
Their deep cleansing oil is pretty popular, so I was excited to see it arrive in this bundle. I've been wanting to try it for a while now.
This cleansing oil has 5 stars out of 4,837 reviews on the DHC website. Yes, you read that correctly. AMAZING! So let me go in to detail on why this cleanser is so great.
1) It dissolves all traces of dirt and makeup - even waterproof eyeliner and mascara. (see pictures below)
(I used the DCH liquid eyeliner for this)
2) It contains a unique water-soluble formula. It emulsifies once it comes in contact with water.
3) Rich in vitamins and antioxidants. The top ingredient is olive oil.
4) 1 bottle is sold every 10 seconds world wide
This oil cleanser is great for all skin types. So, all of you who have *oily* skin, don't stray away yet! If you have oily skin, you might think it's a terrible idea to add MORE oil to the skin. That is not true. Natural oils will help calm and balance out the natural moisture barrier while removing dirt and sebum.
HOW TO USE:
First you want to apply it dry. (without water) Massage one - two pumps (dry) on to your face. Then add water and continue to massage. Rinse with additional water and pat dry.
*I've been using this product for the last 4 nights, and I'm loving it so far. It leaves my skin feeling so soft and smooth. Plus my skin feels completely clean! It even got all my mascara off, which I usually remove with eye makeup remover. I think I found a new winner when it comes to cleansers.
*ALSO, THIS PRODUCT IS ON SALE RIGHT NOW UNTIL MARCH 31st!*
The Revitalizing Booster Serum is a new product to the DHC line. My initial thought when I first saw this was, "oh another serum..." until I read about it on their website. This product is a lightweight hydrating serum that acts like rocket fuel for your current skincare products. The key is nanocube technology, a Japanese innovation you won't see anywhere else. The technology brings key ingredients to the skin where it needs it most. Basically, it helps your skincare routine from "plateauing."
*Key Ingredients:
-Jojoba
-Collagen
-Hyaluronic acid
-soybean extract
I love how hydrating this serum is. I have dry skin, so my face and neck just soak it up! It doesn't have a scent so that was a plus.
HOW TO USE:
pump one - two pumps of serum on to finger tips. Massage all over face and neck.
When I first opened this, I noticed it was orange. I immediately smelled it because I just knew it was going to have a scent. Suprisingly, it doesn't have a scent at all. I love the cream to gel formula. it's actually more creamy than gel like, but I liked how it absorbed into my skin. It does not feel greasy at all!
*This product is going to tone, hydrate, brighten, and help fight free radical damage. It features a super antioxidant astaxanthin, a vitamin-like substance considered to be 6,000 times more powerful than vitamin C.
*Astaxanthin is derived from freshwater green algae. It has been shown to help improve skin moisture levels, elasticity and smoothness while reducing wrinkles, freckles, and age spots.
The website recommends this for daytime use, but I use it at night as well.
You guys, I'm not sure what's going on with my eyes lately, but every day I wake up with dark puffy eyes. :-( I'm so happy these eye strips were in this bundle. I store them in the refrigerator so they will be nice and cool on my eyes in the morning. I put them on in the morning for about 15-20 minutes. I've been loving them so far!
*These eye strips provide nourishing ingredients to alleviate dark circles and reduce puffiness—in just 20 minutes.
*Beneficial ingredients include brightening mulberry, alpha-arbutin and peony to combat discoloration, and antioxidant-rich olive leaf extract and soy to promote younger-looking eyes
HOW TO USE:
After washing and toning, remove strips from backing and apply under eyes. Leave on for 20–30 minutes or overnight for more conditioning.
I was intrigued when I first saw this product. I had never used a 'powder' as a face wash before.
*Exfoliating protease enzymes help dissolve the bonds of lifeless, dulling skin cells with ease, making this foaming cleanser gentle enough to use daily.
HOW TO USE:
Wet face. Combine powder with water, lather and gently massage into face. Rinse thoroughly.
I just thought this product was 'ok.' I didn't see a huge difference with my skin after using. I was not a fan of the smell. I can't describe it, but it wasn't pleasant.
That sums up the DHC product review. I hope you guys found this helpful! Email me with any questions or leave a comment. I love hearing from you guys!
Have a great weekend!
