I sold My Clarisonic!

Yes, it is true! I sold my Clarisonic! My sweet, wonderful Clarisonic is gone. Why, you ask? Well, I have found a cheaper, very gentle classing tool, that I am loving at the moment! It is the konjac sponge! If you have not heard about the konjac here is a little history. The Konjac Potato is a perennial plant native to Asia. It is found at very high altitudes. A natural food source, Konjac is 97% water, rich in minerals and is alkaline, pH neutral which leaves the skin in perfect balance.  I love the fact that it is between 7 and 10 dollars and you only need to replace it every 3 month. Since they are so cost effective, I usually buy two at a time, one for the shower and one for at my sink. My current favorites are the charcoal ( good for acne) and the Asian clay ( dry skin). The Konjac sponge gently exfoliates as it  cleanses the skin. So as of now I don't even miss my clarisonic and I have been SO happy with my little sponges :)

The Konjac sponge that I use if from Dew puff, and I get it on Amazon… Duh?

Natural Skin Care and A discount code

In today's post I'd like to talk about an amazing natural  skincare line I came across. I have tried it ALL, from very high end to drugstore products, and never can find something that I stick with. My skin is very dry, sensitive and acne prone. I am also not getting any younger so I look for anti aging ingredients.   In the past year, I made the switch to all natural skincare.   In the search for a good natural moisturizer, I came across a recommendation to try Leahlani Skincare based out of Hawaii and found on Etsy. I was skeptical at first, but I decided to give it a try, and I am so glad that I did! The ingredients are natural and the prices were good, so I placed my first order. I purchased  The Aloe Day Cream, The Honey Love, and the Mermaid Mask.

 I have been using the Aloe Day Cream all summer and it is wonderful. It sinks into the skin, and leaves the skin so soft and hydrated with no sticky residue. It is a great base for make up application.  The Aloe Day Cream contains french lavender, Blue Tansy, Geranium and Chamomile essential oils which work together to gently balance hormonal skin flare ups. I have been suffering from hormonal breakouts, so I was truly excited about this balancing blend. 

 The Honey Love is a unique product that sparked my interest. I used to use raw honey to cleanse my face so this product was right up my alley. This product is great because it cleanses your skin with the honey and when you stir it up, you incorporate the crystals that lay on the bottom of the jar and it makes for a wonderful microdermabrasion scrub. If you leave it on the skin, it triples as a mask. It is a jar of pure perfection…. the ultimate in skin multitasking! It is made with a blend of essential oils, vitamins C & E, organic flower powders and Hawaiian raw honey.

Finally, the "super food" for the skin, the Mermaid Mask.  This mask is fabulous, it really is nourishing and soothing to the skin, it has amazing ingredients, to feed your face. It doesn't harden up and make the skin tight, it feels great when  washed off with a warm cloth. It contains  Hawaiian raw honey, Hawaiian spiraling  Chlorella, sea buckthorn, luminess algae and 15 botanicals. "Your skin will drink up this elixir and radiate from within."
