So I have been using the Dr. Jart water infused BB cream for over a year now, and I have bought several tubes of it. However, this last time when I was about out, I decided to try a different BB cream for a couple of different reasons: my skin has been kind of dull lately, and I have noticed a couple of little red bumps on my face that have showed up recently. While I have loved this BB cream for a long time, I think my skin just needed to switch things up.
Because of this, I decided to sample a couple of BB creams, and finally decided on the one from Boscia (I didn’t know this brand is pronounced like bow- (as in hair bow) shuh, and had been pronouncing it like boss-kia this whole time, hahaha oops). There’s a higher SPF in the BB cream from Dr. Jart so I think that might’ve contributed to the little red bumps, because my skin is suuuper sensitive and I always get rashes from regular sunscreen, so I have to wear baby sunscreen. Talk about embarrassing. Anyway, I have noticed that I have fewer red bumps now that I’ve been using the Boscia BB cream for a little while.
So far, I have really been loving this! It makes my skin look really glowy, which is perfect for summer. It does have a slight shimmer in it, so if you don’t like that, I wouldn’t recommend it for you. I have dry, sensitive skin, and so far (knock on wood) this hasn’t given me a rash or broke me out. I love that it has SPF 27, because I have pale skin that does not take well to the sun when unprotected (we’re talking like beet red sunburns if I don’t wear sunscreen). My skin has also felt really soft, and honestly feels better once I have worn this all day. It’s supposed to make your skin feel great, and so far it has. I am a huge fan!
It also matches my skin really well, and blends in easily. It lasts all day, even after a full day of work! I really love it, and think I’ve found my new favorite BB cream for the summer. It hasn’t gotten super hot yet where I live, so we’ll see how it stands with the weather, but it does get pretty warm where I work (my parents’ baker) so I think it’ll do just fine.
Do you use a BB cream? If so, what’s your favorite one?
Thank you so much for reading and have a great day! 🙂
I’m sorry it’s been a couple weeks since I’ve posted, but I have been super busy as always. It’s the end of the school year (my last day was yesterday!) and it’s senior year so I have been crazy busy with finals and graduation requirements! I have graduation on Friday, so these last couple weeks were the final stretch and I had to be focused on school. I was so stressed out, but now I am super relaxed haha it’s a complete 180! Now I’m just really excited for graduation and this summer 🙂
Even though I was really busy in May, I did actually have a lot of favorites that I managed to spare time to get. A lot of that has to do with Prom since I needed a couple of make-up products, and luckily I ended up loving a lot of them!
This lip balm has been a life saver! My lips usually get dry around this time of year, and I tend to pick at them when I’m stressed, so they were in pretty bad shape but this little guy fixed them really quickly! I put it on any time of the day, but I always try and put it on at night so I wake up with nice, soft lips. And it smells really nice! I love both lemon and vanilla so this is perfect for me.
This has also been really useful! With my lips being dry and flaky, I have used this quite a bit. I like to use it especially before I wear lipstick so it goes on really smoothly. It also smells great and tastes really yummy! I have always loved bubblegum (when I was little I always chose the bubblegum flavored medicine haha) so this is right up my alley!
Okay, so I had been using the Almay eye make-up remover, but it burns my eyes really badly – sometimes they would even be red after I used the product, so I decided I should probably switch to a different one. I went into Sephora and they suggested I get a cream eye make-up remover, so I got this one! It has a lot of other benefits as well, like moisturizing under your eyes, and it works really well. It takes off all of my make-up, even mascara, without any mess and leaves my eyes feeling amazing! I love it so much.
So I had been running extremely low of my usual concealer (the Make Up Forever HD concealer) so I decided to go in and get another tube of it, but they were out of my shade. Since I was basically out, I needed to get some that day so I decided to give this one a try since people have said that it works just as well as the Make Up Forever one. Plus, Tarte uses great ingredients and doesn’t test on animals! This product works great and conceals really well! The only thing is that it isn’t matte so you have to use a good finishing powder so your face doesn’t look oily, but I always use powder to set my make-up anyway, so that really doesn’t bother me. Overall, this is such a great product and my new favorite concealer!
I got this lipstick for Prom since I needed a more nude color, so I picked this up in the shade “Angelic Nude.” I ended up reallllly loving it! It looks so pretty on because it looks really similar to my natural lip color, so it just adds a little subtle pop to my lips. The formula is also so great! It hydrates my lips instead of dehydrating them like a lot of lipsticks. It really melts into the skin and feels so great, and it doesn’t sink into the little fine lines on lips so you don’t look crazy by the end of the night. You do have to reapply it every couple of hours which doesn’t bother me because my lips feel so great while wearing it! It is seriously just like really pretty chapstick.
Here’s a swatch of the color.
I ran out of my previous setting powder, and I had really been wanting a translucent one so I decided to give this a try. I have heard great things about it and I really love it! It sets my concealer under my eyes so well. I love how it makes my skin look after I apply it, and it has made my morning routine a lot faster! My skin also feels so soft after I use this.
I also got this brush to apply the powder with since I didn’t have a big, fluffy Kabuki brush. It’s super soft and I love it! It works really well for putting on powder.
Alright, that’s it for my favorites! What did you love in May?
Thank you guys so much for reading and I hope you have a great day! (:

So about a month ago I was looking for a new facial cleanser because I became really unhappy with the one I had from Burts Bees. I really love Burts Bees, but they changed a lot of their formulas, and my face wash was just not working anymore. My pores felt really clogged, and my face just wasn’t getting clean. So, I went to Target with no product in mind really, and this one caught my eye.
I had never heard of this brand before, but I looked it up and saw that a lot of people love it, and specifically, this face wash. They don’t test on animals, and they use natural ingredients that still allows this product to gently cleanse sensitive skin which is exactly what I needed. I really wanted something that would cleanse my face and leave my pores feeling nice and clean, but isn’t too harsh that would cause my skin to break out into a rash. I love my skin, but boy do I have to be extra careful with it! Even sunscreen gives me rashes, which can be quite annoying in the summer.
This face wash smells ah-mazing as well, and really leaves my skin feeling refreshed! I use it once a day when I take my shower in the late afternoon/night, and then I follow up with my F.A.B. face lotion. I only wash my face once a day because it is super sensitive and pretty dry, so I really don’t need to in the mornings – I just put on some lotion and BB cream and I’m good to go. I have noticed that since I’ve been using this product, my skin has been glowing in the mornings, and it has fixed all of the issues my previous face wash caused. I am very pleased with this product, and I definitely recommend it for all skin types! It has become my new favorite facial cleanser.

I, yet again, have had a crazy week. April is usually pretty busy for me, and this year is no exception! Last week I went on a couple of college visits in Seattle, and the rest of the week and this weekend was insane with just random things.
But anyway, today I have a review for you guys!
I am a big fan of this line, and have the heavier ultra repair lotion that I used for the winter since my skin gets super dry. So now that it’s spring, I needed something lighter and that’s where this bad boy comes in! I have been using it for a couple of weeks now, and I love it! It’s the perfect texture for my skin; it isn’t too heavy or too light. I use it morning and night and a little bit goes a looong way haha I was so surprised at how little I actually need in order to moisturize my whole face! It makes my dry patches go away but doesn’t make my skin oily – I could probably go on and on about this product! If you’re unhappy with your face lotion right now, I highly recommend this one!
As always thank you so much for reading, and I hope you have a great day! (:
