Youth To The People Superfood Gentle Antioxidant Cleanser Review

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I got a Mini Superfood Gentle Antioxidant Cleanser last month and I have been using it every evening after using my favorite micellar water I originally was using it because, well, it was free I am not really enjoying it and might repurchase it once it runs out.

Youth To The People – Superfood Gentle Antioxidant Cleanser

Typically when I run out of a sample cleanser, especially from a higher-end brand, I just go back to my tried-and-true cleansers (my a.m. cleanser and my p.m cleanser) but the Superfood Gentle Antioxidant Cleanser is one I’d consider snagging. I love that a little, tiny bit goes a long way, and even with a small amount my face is free of makeup and any grime from the day. I also love that is comes in a refillable glass bottle and has natural ingredients. I would suggest trying this if you have oily or combo skin.

Southern Scholar A Gentleman’s Collection | The Best Men’s Dress Socks

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday! And Happy Solar Eclipse!

My husband is a simple man, but when he put on his first pair of Southern Scholar dress socks he said “These are the best dress socks ever” and we promptly replaced his random dress socks with several pairs from Southern Scholar. They are comfortable and stay up without bunching, they’re soft and help wick sweat, and they’re cool. They also come with a style card that offers style suggestions, like what color pants or suit to pair with which socks, and my husband who again, is a simple guy, loves this added touch.

I love these socks, too and they’re very giftable. I think tossing these in a stocking, Easter basket, or as a groomsman gift would be appreciated by any man. They also have a Monthly Sock Subscription which I think is a ton of fun.

Luv Ur Skin | Skincare For Teens and Sensitive Skin Review

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I was offered the chance to review Luv Your Skin and jumped at the chance because my daughter is almost 13 and very into skincare.

Luv Your Skin Skincare Review

We received The Essentials by Luv Your Skin bundle which included Scrub Off Pure Bamboo Facial Scrub, Take Off Gentle Facial Wash, and Calm Down Soothing Face Moisturizer. My daughter and I both tried all of the products. My favorite and the standout of the three to me was the Bamboo Facial Scrub. I love the Essentials set for my daughter because they are made from natural ingredients and are gentle on her young, sensitive skin.

Scrub Off Pure Bamboo Facial Scrub

This feels so good, and gentle but you get that nice invigorating clean feeling.

Bamboo Powder, Cocoa Butter, and Plantolin® gently scrub away dry, dead skin cells, restoring an even skin tone for naturally softer, clearer, and glowing skin.

Take Off Gentle Facial Wash

This is great because it gently removes makeup. My daughter uses this after her micellar water.

Aloe Vera, Bilberry, and Plantolin clear bacteria, and infections and soothe irritation, while calming skin with a balanced pH to leave ultra-clean refreshed skin.

Calm Down Soothing Face Moisturizer

A little goes a long way and this did not break my daughter or me out.

Rosehip, Olive Oil and Jojoba Oil to hydrate, calm, and promote skin renewal while soothing irritated or sensitive skin.

Lenoir Skincare Review | Fragrance Free High-End Skincare

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I am very consistent with my skincare routine and spend a lot of time researching products. Lenoir Skincare contacted me and asked if I would like to try some of their products, and I immediately knew I was interested in their Vitamin C Serum and Hyuluronic Acid Serum. They also sent me their Vitamin C Cleanser which was a surprise and a treat because I typically don’t spend a lot on cleansers and stick to drugstore goodies.

About Lenoir Skin

Lenoir skincare is vegan and does not test on animals. They also prioritize sustainability in packaging and sourcing. They offer personal recommendations based on your needs. They also have a fun quiz to see what products best suit your unique skincare needs.

Lenoir Vitamin C Cleanser

A foaming facial cleanser that has Vitamin C, Botanicals, and Raspberry Seed Oil. The product description states that this cleanser will not strip the skin of its natural balance but help visibly improve the appearance of skin clarity, texture, and tone, leaving your skin feeling extremely clean.

Contains Raspberry and Copaiba

Benefits:

  • Clarifies and exfoliates skin
  • Reduce oil and debris from pores
  • Improve overall skin function
  • Brightens skin complexion
  • Removes makeup and build up
  • Assist with skin rejuvenation

Keeps the skin clear of invaders and helps to lock moisture into the skin.

I have enjoyed this cleanser. I use it in the evenings as the second step of my nightly double cleanse. I start with this Micellar water and then follow with the Lenoir Vitamin C Cleanser. The glass bottle is gorgeous and I will definitely re-use it.

Lenoir Vitamin C Serum

I love that this vitamin has three different forms of stable Vitamin C along with Hyaluronic Acid and Rosehip Seed Oil. I appreciate that it is fragrance and essential oil-free.

Contains Hyaluronic Acid and Rosehip

  • Efficient anti-aging treatment
  • Minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Powerful antioxidants from the Vitamin C
  • Decreases inflammation
  • Improve skin elasticity
  • Bring forth a more youthful appearance
  • Calms acne

Works well together to improve the appearance of sun damage and combination type skin while promoting hydration and skin suppleness. The skin will have a healthy glow and appear firmer and plumper.

I have been storing this in the fridge and have enjoyed it. I use it after cleansing and toning before moisturizing. I don’t notice plumping, but I notice a nice evenness and glow when I use the Lenoir Vitamin C Serum.

Lenoir Hyaluronic Acid Serum

A very light serum delivering weightless hydration with Hyaluronic Acid and Sea Algae, Vitamin C and Plant Peptides.

Contains Vitamin C and Peptides

  • Hydrates the skin
  • Heals breakouts
  • Contains anti-aging properties
  • Unclogs pores
  • Controls oily skin
  • Reduces Spots and blemishes
  • Promotes Skin regeneration

Helps with soft tissue growth, prompts your body to make more collagen and elastin, keeps your skin moisturized, prevents tightness, boots elasticity, and reduces scarring.

I love this! My skin looks noticeably brighter, especially around my eyes and cheekbones which I love, and it isn’t so strong that I react negatively or can’t use it regularly. I am a big fan of the Lenoir Hyaluronic Acid Serum.

Leah Tackles Turns 10! | What now?

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I turn 37 tomorrow and 10 years ago tomorrow I started this blog. Because of this blog, I’ve had opportunities and then began YouTube, and then that led to becoming a social media manager, and now I’m a social media strategist and account manager. I still love this blog, I don’t get it much energy, but I am SO DARN PROUD I’ve never missed a week. I have practiced writing every. single. week for a decade. Little Leah would be proud. Will I keep writing? For now, yes. But I plan to allow myself the freedom to post when I feel called to, when I receive a PR product that I think is worth sharing, or when I have something that I’d share with my girlfriends.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for your support over the past DECADE. Please follow me on Instagram for daily outfit inspiration, gratitudes, and behind-the-scenes.

The Best White Button-Up | Everlane Shirt

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I have had the same button-up from Everlane shirt in my wardrobe for years and what I love about it is that it’s soft and feels good with only a bra under it. I prefer to use steamer (don’t let the fact that it needs a steam deter you, it takes 2 minutes max) and I wear this dressed casually with jeans and shorts or dressed up under a a blazer with trousers.

Murder On The Dance Floor Party Theme Outfit

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

One of our dear friends had a Murder On The Dance Floor (song by Sophie Ellis Bextor) birthday party and this is my Murder On The Dance Floor-themed outfit.

Big Love Bodysuit by Free People This bodysuit is SO GOOD. The black is currently back-ordered (shipping in March) but is available in a blush pink (gorgeous!) and a white that would be perfect for a bachelorette party outfit. I purchased an XS because the Small was out-of-stock when I placed the order, and it did fit, but if I wanted to wear it on the shoulder or one shoulder up, I’d go for the size small. I am between sizes, it depends on the garment, and if that’s you I suggest ordering your bigger if available.

Vegan Leather High Rise Pant by Abercrombie & Fitch I borrowed these pants from a friend but have them in two other colors. I love them and now want a pair in the black. Comfortable, stylish, and on sale!

Black Velvet Heeled Boots* This pair is very similar to my boots, my boots are about five years old and they’re a go-to for me and a wardrobe staple.

neuBROW Brow Serum | Review

& Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I’ve talked about how much I love the neuLASH by Skin Research Laboratories and I was so excited to try neuBROW and so was my daughter.

neoBROW Brow Serum

I was already applying neuLASH on my brows but neuBROW is the way if you want brow growth. Now, do I suddenly have gorgeous perfectly quaffed caterpillars on my face? No, but I have noticed new growth at the start of my brow where I usually fill in little hairs with a brow pen.

My routine is simple, at night after I finish the rest of my skincare routine I apply this to my brows and brush through with a spooli brush. I am really excited about this product!

What it does: The award-winning serum is formulated with proteins, peptides, essential oils and vitamins for fuller, healthier-looking natural brows. It is crafted with a science-backed combination of proteins, peptides and hydrating ingredients to promote fuller- and thicker-looking brows in just 4-6 weeks. Formulated with Dual-Weight Protein Complex® to add shine and flexibility, neuBROW pampers your brows with vitamin-fortified conditioning ingredients for bold, beautiful, more defined-looking brows. Gleaming in an elegantly redesigned, crystal-like container.
