I went into Nordstrom and randomly got a CLINIQUE Acne Solutions Cleansing Foam. 
I needed a solution for my acne and this was what the counter of Clinique recommended. When I bought this I was not aware that this was in steps like Proactive nor was I fully informed that this was well you'll see in my thoughts. Long story short, I was annoyed. Wait before I go to the review follow my   Instagram thefallenwaddles and comment what type of posts you'll like to see in the blog please thanks. 



The product comes in an aqua plastic container and a white pump. With some cleansing foam I have used, the liquid just leaks out from it or it just won't work. I didn't have a problem with this pump.The product comes up as a white foam. The amount of product that you receive is 4.2 Fl.OZ.LIQ/124 ml. If you're someone who is particular to smell, I will have to say it oddly smelled like rubbing alcohol for me. Also, this is step 1 in their acne solution line.

This product claims to be suitable for all skin types including dry and acne prone. It will prevent and clear acne. While gently removing the dirt and excess oil in your skin. It will leave your skin feeling soft, smooth and comfortable when you washed it out. Apparently, it will reduce any active blemishes you have by 37% with continuous uses over the past 3 days. Also, it is allergy tested,non-acnegenic, and is free of oil and fragrance.


My thoughts This was not the ideal product for me to compact my acne for a few reason. While using this product, I noticed my skin was getting dry. I used this for 2-4 days in the morning and night and saw that skin condition worsening. My skin started to flake off in the area like around my smile line and nose. My skin felt irritated from the dryness which felt uncomfortable this still occurred when I used it every other day.  I was not aware that this was step one out of XXX steps since when I bought this the woman didn't inform this to me which I wish she did... 


Do keep in mind that my skin type is different from you, so products that won't work on my might work on you.

I'm laying down on my lopsided bed with my dog snuggling next to me eagerly awaiting her 5th birthday.

Today, I'm going to be reviewing the Laura Mercier Flawless Skin Polish. If you haven't heard of Laura Mercier it's a popular makeup brand that is well known for having several cult favorites like the Laura Mercier  Translucent Loose Setting Powder. What you might have not known is the brand not only have makeup product but also have skin care products! I don't really see it's skin care product really talked about out on youtube or any way in that matter. I decided to test it out. Check out my social media accounts which is listed at the end of the post, now let's begin!

✿The direction is to place a small amount on your fingertips. Then gently massage it into dampened skin. Lastly, rinse with warm water.✿






This exfoliator is gentle on the skin yet effective which some gentle exfoliator doesn't do. If you had a sensitive skin type I feel like you would like this, because it isn't harsh and quite gentle. It won't irritate your skin when you massage this into your skin. This did not break me out which was good and it didn't disrupt my active acne bumps. After using this, my skin felt quite soft.

Wearing a hat is crucial during the summer. It gives your head shade so your hair won't be exposed to the UV rays. This means your hair won't be hot when you merely touch it. Does anyone else get that type of problems? It helps protect your eyes from harmful UV rays and makes it easier to see when you don't have access to a pair of sunglasses.

Fans are aesthetically pleasing (at least for me) to have and will give you a nice and gentle breeze. They aren't big or bulky, so you can slip it into your purse and take it out when you need a breeze. Here a tip, put some water in the preferred area like your arms and fan away. It helps cool you so much faster. I recommend not getting one of those cheap plastic ones in Chinatown, they break easily.

I'm that type of person who dabs on an extra touch of sunscreen before leaving to go outside for gym and exercise. I'm that type of girl that leaves a bottle of sunscreen in my bookbag.I'm that extra. Sunscreen protects you from the hazard of UV  rays which damage your skin. Sunburn is only a single fraction of the damage they do. Sunscreen helps lighten sunscreen by helping with the dark spots which can worsen with the contact in the sun. Here a tip reapplies every 2-3 hours. 

Comment down below if you want me to go more in depth with why it's important.

A pair of shades is literally every girl's best accessory for the summertime. They're fashionable and makes an outfit looks more complete. Plus if you don't feel like doing your eye makeup. No one gonna notice. You also protect your eyes from the UV Rays which can irritation and blur vision. If you have prescription glasses meaning you are somewhat blind and need your glasses to see. Then talk to your eye doctor or walk in a store and order one.
