Sephora Skin Care Haul...

I made a goal this year (as I do every year) to take better care of my skin. I bought a few things from Sephora online, read on for the deets. 



Clarisonic- The Clarisonic has been on my wish list for at least a year. I finally buckled down and purchased one. I bought the Clarisonic Mia, which is the most inexpensive one ($119) in the Clarisonic family. It comes with the sensitive brush head, charger, instruction manaul and a 1 oz cleanser. I have been using this for almost a week & I'm so in love with this little thing...I will save all of my wonderful comments about it for the review. 

I will be doing a full review after I used it for a while. I could have went to the local Sephora to purchase the Clarisonic but they don't always give me the VIB points, so; I bought it online...the more points you get, the more free items & samples you get.


Origins Clay Mask- This was the item that I got for free for reaching over 100 points. I could have chosen a free makeup or fragrance item, but; since I'm on a skin care kick-I figured I would get the mask since I needed it. It's a charcoal clay mask, it comes in 1 oz. I haven't got around to using it yet, but; I will probably use it tonight. 



Clinique 3 Step Skin Care System- This was the sample item that I got for free. It's a sample of the Clinique skin care system. The regular Clinique skin care system is for two weeks but since this is a sample, they gave me the two day supply. You're supposed to use the cleanser, exfoliator and moisturizer in the morning and night for two days. 

I haven't used this either, I rarely get a chance to wash my face in the morning and night for two days in a row...it just doesn't happen. I only wash my face at night and I tone & moisturize in the morning and that's on a good day! Maybe if I get snowed in for a few days, I can get around to using this set. 


Have you used any of these items?

Hey, Sharon!

Sure, I will review the Origins mask for you, once I tried it.

I hope I don't have the same results for the Clinique system that you had, we'll see.

You will love the Clarisonic! It really does deep clean. I don't really care for cleanser that comes with it, so I use my regular Clinique facial soap.

Nice haul, Gabs!

Well-Being: A Better Night's Sleep

  Hello, Dolls A good night's sleep is something I've been chasing after for years. Like many people, my nights can be chaotic. Not to mention, I've been suffering with insomnia for years, yes years.     It takes me a while to unwind and fall asleep, and when I finally do, I wake up several times throughout the night. I’ve taken several sleep aids and remedies through the years. I've tried teas, linen sleep sprays, over the counter and prescription aids, and almost every lavender night time product out there. Some were helpful at first, but after a while, I think my body got immune to it. So, I was very curious when Highline Wellness gifted me a bottle of their CBD Night gummies. I was skeptical at first, but they’re really working for me.  The melatonin helps you to fall asleep, and CBD helps you to stay asleep. I’m able to fall asleep faster, and stay asleep longer. An added benefit is I don’t wake up the next morning experiencing grogginess like I’ve felt with ot...

How I Refurbished my Louis Vuitton Speedy...

I bought an authentic preloved Louis Vuitton Damier Speedy bag a few months back. While I was so excited to finally get the bag and wear it, I realized (at that time of buying and when I received it) that the bag had some wear on it that could use some fixing up. After searching online, I found a blogger,  Lollipuff , who posted an article on how to refurbish LV bags. Based on the recommendations in the post, I used the following products: Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, Blue Magic Metal Polish cream (tube) and Cadillac Boot and Shine leather conditioner. I also used laundry detergent and baby wipes. All of the products used can be used on any bag to spruce it up. Read on for the deets, to see how you can spruce up your handbag! Before At first glance, the bag had some sheen on the exterior. Most of the brass fixtures had green tarnishing (which happens with aging of brass). The leather handles were dull. The bag had lost some of its shape. The inside was the kicker! The red in...
