ProduCt.ReViEw.- Olay Professional Advanced Cleansing System

It has been exactly one month since I first got this cleansing system, and I thought that after 4 weeks of use, that it would be an awesome time to write a review for it.... and plus, I haven't done a review in a long long time....

 

Olay Professional Advanced Cleansing System

What Olay has to say: "Is it time to rethink your daily cleansing routine? Designed by a team of dermatologists along with Olay, the Advanced Cleansing System is as effective as a system sold by skin professionals for nearly $200.* Professionally and clinically designed to cleanse 6 times better**, the Pro-X Advanced Cleansing System also sets your skin up for supersonic anti-aging moisturization.†

product information

1. 2-speed, rotating system delivers daily deep cleansing and gentle exfoliation.
2. Water-resistant for use in the shower
3. Soft replaceable brush head gentle on skin
4. Exfoliating cleanser professionally designed to purify and renew skin’s texture for refreshed, smooth skin"

System includes:
2-speed facial cleansing brush
Soft bristle replaceable brush head (refills available)
Exfoliating Renewal Cleanser (20mL)<-(water, glycerin, sodium lauroyl methyl isethionate, lauramidopropyl betaine, oxidized polyethylene, sorbitol, acrylates copolymer, peg-200 hydrogenated glyceryl palmate, potassium hydroxide, citric acid, polyquaternium-10, peg-7, glyceryl cocoate, peg-100, disodium edta, sodium chloride, methylchloroisothiazolinone, methylisothiazolinone.)

- I find this does clean much better then regular cleansing because I find that you (or well I) tend to concentrate more time on cleansing each area of the face. 

- Can be used with (almost) any cleanser

- Has two speeds

-Awesome that it is water resistant(to wash face in shower)

-Battery compartment lid was hard to take off

-Not a con but I think that they should create other types of heads, like ones that are more exfoliating or more gentle

- Exfoliating Cleanser that it came with was too harsh to use on a daily basis

$32.99CAD/Hand held device and comes with 20ml cleanser

I would definitely recommend this to everyone to try, it is one of the best things I have ever bought. I love that it is at a great price too.

ProduCt.ReViEw. -Dior Rouge Dior Voluptuous Care in 644 Rouge Blossom

Dior Rouge Dior Voluptuous Care in 644 Rouge Blossom

From Haute Couture to “Haute Couleur”

Rouge Dior is a wardrobe of 32 sublime shades directly inspired by the deep, luxurious colors of Dior Haute Couture gowns to reveal all the beauty of triumphant and radiant femininity! Instantly and day after day, this exceptional lipstick offers the lips the extreme splendor of full, smooth and perfectly defined youthfulness.

The secret? A new generation of plumping hyaluronic acid microspheres. Generously coated with pigments on the lip surface, they help boost the radiance and depth of color.

In a midnight blue Haute Couture case, with the canework motif dear to the brand, unveils the “Haute Couleur” stick, made even more extraordinary due to its unique shine and its engraved CD signature.

I love how pigmented the colour is, so you don't have to layer to achieve the full colours potential. I find the stay on this lipstick average, as it does not go away right away, nor does it stay for hours. 

Unfortunately what gets me about Dior lipsticks, is always the smell and taste of them. The smell is not pleasant, and it reminds me of cheap lipstick. The taste as well is not pleasant. Another point, is the price, I find the lipsticks to be super expensive, but i uess, you buy the name too!

This lipstick is a really beautiful reddy pink colour with gold flecks. Perfect to wear everyday, or awesome paired with a nude or cat eye. As always the packaging is classic and very sleek, yet simple.

ProduCt.ReViEw. -Dior DiorShow Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum

Dior DiorShow Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum 

"What it does:

The newest addition to the family of legendary Diorshow Mascaras, Diorshow Maximizer Lash Primer Serum instantly primes, plumps, and lengthens lashes with an ultra-light and quick-drying formula. The first "active serum" mascara primer also contains a unique cell-conditioning complex made up of hydrolyzed soy proteins that promote long-term lash growth, strength, and vitality.

What else you need to know:

"Diorshow Maximizer is this season's most innovative, must-have product. Apply as a primer serum base under mascara for intensely curled, thickened, and lengthened lashes and also on its own as a deep conditioner for lashes at night." -Sephora Pro Beauty Team Member, Nathalie Bechard

Research Results:

The Dior Innovation Center has tested Diorshow Maximizer for efficiency and found amazing results after only 8 weeks use: + 52% Volume, +38% Length, + 73% Curl

Studies also showed that lashes were more resilient, protected, and revitalized." Sephora

I really noticed a difference with this primer under my mascara as appose to without it. 
I found my lashes were 'healthier' and stronger after using this for only a few times.
Contains alternia: an alga which helps to boost the effects of other anti aging ingredients, it protects DNA from UV rays and free radicals.   

Contains triethanolamine, which is considered a moderate hazard ingredient by the Cosmetics Database, which should cause concern. It can produce sense organ effects at very low doses when used around the eyes. Also there are some potentially harmful preservatives such as BHT and phenoxyethanol.  

This has to be the only lash primer that I have ever liked. As an avid false lash user, it was hard to steer me away from my lashes, even just to try it. After I tried it, I didn't regret it. Don't get me wrong though, I will not be leaving my false lashes anytime soon! However I did find that the this primer did an awesome job of making my lashes look like they were falsies! I would recommend this primer to anyone wanting a longer and fuller lashes.
