January Favorites

Hey Guys,
Time for another monthly favorites post! I'm not too sad that January is over since I am SO READY for the Spring! However, I had a couple exciting things happen this month. I became an auntie again! My brother in law and his girlfriend had a baby boy. This is the first baby in my husband's immediate family so his parents are overjoyed. El and I also booked our trip to NY for IMATS in April! We are so excited. Lastly, I got a Canon Rebel T5 camera and am going to try to step up my game with my YouTube videos. I just got it a few days ago and am already having a hard time with it! I have filmed my January Favorites twice and both times, the products are crystal clear but me and the background are blurry! That being said, I know its all a learning curve and hopefully I get the hang of this thing!

Review: FarmHouse Fresh Body Milk Travel Lotions*

Hi Guys,

Today I am sharing my thoughts on some more FarmHouse Fresh products! I recently reviewed their Splendid Dirt Mask HERE. The products I will be discussing are their new Body Milk Travel lotions. 

Before I get into the scents, let me just give my thoughts on the packaging. The packaging is so cute! It feels luxurious but homemade at the same time. Does that make sense? The body milks come in a  sturdy aluminum/metal tube with beautiful labeling/print packaged in a nice box. By homemade, I mean that the patterns and textures are rustic/country looking. This is a good thing.

Sweet Cream Body Milk Travel Lotion $14.00

Here is what is said about this product:
"90.5% Natural - Vegan - Gluten Free
This delicate moisturizer pours over you like milk, and leaves light velvety notes of warm sweet cream. A true treat to moisturize each morning. The scent takes you away to a fine morning tea, with scones, heavy cream and great gal pals.

Like all FarmHouse Fresh products, Sweet Cream Body Milk is Paraben and Sulfate free, plus it's infused with a blend of natural oils that provide lasting softness to skin: Vitamin E-rich Rice Bran oil, Jajoba Seed oil, Sweet Almond, Avocado and Sesame."   http://www.farmhousefreshgoods.com/sweet-cream-travel.html#sthash.sA6yQR6P.dpuf

Backcountry Caramel Body Milk Travel Lotion $14.00

Here is what is said about this product:
"97.5% Natural - Vegan - Gluten Free
A sultry caramel dream! If you simply can't get enough of a warm, sleepy, vanilla-cinnamon scent, get ready for your next obsession! Our best-selling Sweet Cream Body Milk has been infused with a golden-caramel fragrance that rivals the finest creme brulee. The feel is light, and it pours like milk, but make no mistake this silky vegetable-based lotion will keep skin soft throughout the entire day. Made with our special blend of natural oils for maximum hydration.97.5% natural and like all FarmHouse Fresh products, Backcountry Caramel is Paraben & Sulfate free."

These travel body milks come in two other scents: Fresh Melon and Ginger Sorbet. All travel body milks are 2.4 oz.

Here is what the product looks like:

Onto my thoughts:

I really love both of these scents so much! They smell so yummy! The milks are very moisturizing and you skin soaks them right up! I have been leaving Sweet Cream in my purse because my hands have been SO DRY lately. Like gross dry...Once I apply the body milk they feel so much better.  I love that these body milks are natural, vegan, and gluten free. I am seriously SO IMPRESSED with the FarmHouse Fresh Brand. I need to start making a list of other products that I want to try.

You can check out all of their products HERE. I'm sure you are bound to find something you are interested in trying if not a whole list!

Review: FarmHouse Fresh Splendid Dirt Nutrient Mud Mask with Organic Pumpkin Puree

Hi Ladies!
Today I want to share with you an awesome brand that I discovered on the Dermstore site. FarmHouse Fresh is a Texas based skincare and body care brand that is paraben and sulfate free. Many of their products are natural, vegan, and/or gluten free.The product that I recently purchased was their Splendid Dirt Nutrient Mud Mask with Organic Pumpkin Puree. They had a bunch of other masks that interested me but I decided to try this one.

Splendid Dirt Nutrient Mud Mask with Organic Pumpkin Puree $20.00

Here is what is said about this mask on the FarmHouse Fresh site:
"Get dirty! Red, blotchy, and oily skin- you've met your mask. Splendid Dirt is a natural, nutrient-rich pot of Illite and Bentonite clays, fresh enzyme-full pumpkin puree, and active yogurt cultures that instantly boosts overall radiance by deep cleansing pores, temporarily shrinking their look, and improving the look of broken capillaries and uneven skin tones. This thick blended puree goes on whipped and velvety smooth, bringing a party-orange pumpkin face that might scare the neighbors, but will seriously de-gunk and help purify even the most congested skin.

You'll feel Splendid Dirt working- a mild tingling sensation begins as oxygenation and circulation increases. The feeling is temporary, and as the mask dries, skin is actually left calmed and soothed, decreasing everyday blotchiness. It is recommended for all skin types, except those with sensitive skin, at least once per week. We LOVE it after using One Fine Day Flawless Face Polish!"

Onto my thoughts about this product:

I love the packaging of this product. Its in a decent sized glass container with a tin top. It gives vintage/home made feel to the product. The mask itself has a pudding consistency. It smells AWESOME! Just like pumpkin pie! Yum! The product spreads pretty easily on your face. I applied a decent layer to my skin and it harden in a few minutes. Coming from someone that doesn't like tingle/burn products I was a little scared when I read that this tingles. However, it got great reviews and people raved about how clean their skin felt after. This product does in fact tingle/burn for a couple minutes but I stayed strong and refused to wash it off. The tingling sensation does die down after a couple minutes. Then your face just feels a cool sensation. After washing this off my face felt so soft and clean. 

 Here is how the mask looked once it started drying on my skin:

Overall, I am so happy with this mask and glad that I discovered this brand. The mask is a good size for the price that you pay. It definitely beats the price of the Glam Glow masks which are 3x as much money. It smells great and works awesome. I really can't wait to try more masks and other products by FarmHouse Fresh!

Dermstore Haul: Too Faced, Tarte, and FarmHouse Fresh*

Hi Ladies!

Today I am going to share with you my Dermstore haul! For those of you unfamiliar with Dermstore, it is a online beauty store that carries a bunch of well known beauty brands such as Lorac, Too Faced, Tarte, and Laura Geller, They also carry smaller harder to find brands such as Eddie Funkhouser, Rouge Bunny Rouge, and Pacifica. They actually have 3 sites; Dermstore.com, Blush.com, and Hairenvy.com. Dermstore is their main site which carries all of their products (skincare, cosmetics, hair care). Blush.com focuses on cosmetics/beauty and Hairenvy focuses on hair tools and products. When in doubt, Dermstore will carry all the items. It is very easy to navigate between the three sites as they are all linked at the top of the website.

Here are the items that I purchased from Dermstore:

FarmHouse Fresh Splendid Dirt Nutrient Rich Mud Mask in Pumpkin Puree $20.00

I have never heard of FarmHouse Fresh before but I love facial masks! The ingredients such as pumpkin interested me and the fact that it got good reviews was also a reason that I chose to get it. I am very interested to see how I like this mask. FarmHouse Fresh makes other masks as well so if I like it, I may pick up some more!

Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette $49.00

My favorite makeup brand! Ok, I know I am REALLY late to jump of the Chocolate Bar bandwagon but... I finally decided to pick it up! I'm not sure if its even worth doing a review on since everyone has already seen this all over the bloggosphere and Too Faced has already come out with the Semi Sweet Chocolate Bar. I may do a post on looks that I create with this palette. Is anyone interested in seeing that?

Tarte Amazonian Clay 12 Hour Blush in Exposed $26.00

I don't own any Tarte blushes besides a deluxe sample that came in a holiday kit that I got last year. I had a really had time picking which shade that I wanted to try! I finally decided on Exposed which is a "nude" shade which is a pinkish-brown.

Besides my order, I got some free gifts with purchase!

I recieved some great quality Harry Josh Pro Tools hair clips to section my hair and some processional whitening gum. Also included with my order was a 2 year subscription of  Martha Stewart Living Magazine and Midwest Living Magazine. I was able to opt out of receiving the magazines but I need some help with cooking and some recipes would be very helpful!

Here are some great bonuses to shopping at Dermstore, Blush, and HairEnvy:

• Over 800 brands, including physician-strength formulas and hard-to-find specialty brands
• Over 100,000 product reviews from real customers
