Debut.
First and foremost, i would like to thank whoever is reading this for continuing to follow me through out my move. Yes, yes i know it’s annoying to have to re-follow me on google / blogger but i needed something that could show off more of my design flare. Blogger has so many limitations, and it was time i got back into using WordPress (my all time favorite blog client).
But to the main point. I will be announcing a GIVEAWAY shortly, so make sure you are following me since that will be a rule. I decided to do this from the start because only “true” followers will know about this and i want to ensure i’m hosting this first giveaway to those who have and will stick with me.
As for all my past PR’s, i will be adding them slowly as i go so you may see some repeats, but i will try to at least do double posts on those days to ensure you won’t have to re-read a post you’ve already read.
Also, this blog will NOT only be a beauty blog but will also consist of daily life. I’m jumbling it all into one for several reasons and one of those being i have way to many individual accounts, so i’m just going to consolidate. So if you’re going to follow me just for the beauty portion of it, thank you in advance but there will be a lot of misc. posts about my life as i go also.
So i hope you all enjoy and stay tuned for more post, PR’s, and daily ramblings! Also don’t forget to subscribe via email & follow my blog with bloglovin’

PR`d: Body Laundry Light Moisturizer.
Body Laundry’s Light Moisturizer
Sent by: Body Laundry
Claims: This moisturizer absorbs quickly, leaving your skin soft and smooth. lighter than lotion and non-greasy, it will keep your skin hydrated while *help in aiding* the skin’s natural protections against harmful UVA & UVB rays. Take your time applying & enjoy the light scent of lavender… Unless you’re in a hurry, enjoy the fact that it quickly absorbs.
This moisturizer is for you if:
- you have normal skin.
- you have oily skin
- your skin is sensitive
- you’re tired of waiting for other moisturizers to absorb.
- you need some protection against UVA & UVB.
- you’re just looking for a light moisturizer.
- the sample size wasn’t enough!
Contains: Made with shea butter, zinc oxide, lavender water, emulsifying wax, glycerin, cetearyl alcohol, petrolatum, carbomer (thickener), sopropyl myristate (helps to absorb), hydroxyethylcellulose (thickening agent), triethanolamine (pH balancer), phenoxy Ethanol (glycol ethar), caprylyl Glycol (skin conditioning) & lots of love!
How To Use: There’s no specific instructions but for me, i use daily in the morning & at night after cleansing and toning my face.
My Rating: ?????
(Loved it – Will purchase time & time again).
Pros:
- Very Very VERY lightweight.
- Absorbs quickly.
- Instant brightening effect.
- Not sticky.
- Dubs great for a primer also!
- Inexpensive.
- HOMEMADE!
Cons:
- Bit of a medicinal fragrance but not harsh at all.
- Cannot purchase at a store, online ordering only.
My Opinion: First and foremost, just to let you know i am a skincare addict. When i say addict i seriously have an obsessive tendency to continously purchase skincare products (especially moisturizers). I’ve gone through cheap drugstore brands to spending over $200.00 on a moisturizer. Although i am NO professional at skincare, i can tell you that my opinions of moisturizers are pretty “legit” in my eyes since i can say i’ve tried so many in my life.
Now back to the review, this moisturizer is by far one of the best ones i have tried. Not only is this super lightweight it absorbs into the skin almost immediately. So i don’t have to sit and wait for 20+ minutes waiting for it to absorb before apply my makeup. Also, as you can see in my Pros, i stated it dubs well as a primer. Now i have no idea how it works so well but when i use this moisturizer i never and when i say never have to use a primer to keep my foundation in place. It dries to a pretty matte finish and my foundation sticks to it perfectly. Mineral, powder, cream, and liquid ; i’ve tried it all and each time i never have to worry about my makeup sliding off or anything else. I seriously say this is a 2 for 1. After apply this i also noticed that my skin instantly looks brighter. It gives me a very glowy appearance suitable enough for me to go out without a hint of makeup on but knowing my skin doesn’t look dull. Now i have combination / oily skin in the summer an dry skin in the winter and after using this product for over a year now, i can tell you that it’s worked with both my skin conditions and transitions with the weather without any hesitation, leaving me to resort to another product. This is an item i HIGHLY recommend if you’re looking for a good moisturizer for daily use.
Although i love this moisturizer, i do not use this at night since i tend to go for a thicker and creamier night cream. The only downfall to this is that it does have a hint of a medicinal smell but nothing to much to drive me crazy. It goes away quickly so for those who are sensitive to smell, this may be the only downfall to it.
I would definitely purchase this time and time again. Not only is it cheap but it lasts a long time! I was fortunate enough to receive a sample for my lovely Julie, the creator behind Body Laundry and i’ve been using the sample almost everyday and i still have product left. I would highly highly recommend you all to check her out. Her skincare line is amazing! I have tried her purifying blemish clay mask and will be doing a PR on that shortly. She has other products i have not tried but will be purchasing to test out and PR also. Not only do i like the fact that her products work, but they are also homemade by her.
So once again, make sure you check her out. The moisturizer is a MUST-HAVE in my book and she also has sample sizes so you don’t have to go and buy the huge container. Trust me, the sample size goes a long way. Don’t forget to mention i sent you!
