Empty Review: Dead Sea Collection Collagen Anti-Aging Day Cream



Today I am sharing my empty of the Dead Sea Collection Collagen Anti-Aging Day Cream that I purchased at Dollarama to mix with my original Urban Decay Naked Foundation (why it has a tint to it).


This was an awesome moisturizing cream on its own accord, but it absolutely saved the Urban Decay foundation (mentioned above) from being decluttered because it looked so dry and crappy on my skin. When my foundation no longer pumped out of the bottle, I added it to the cream in the tub and mixed them together, as I had been doing on my metal palette.

I knew because I was planning to mix a cream with my foundation, I did not want to spend a lot of money. However, I did not expect that for $4, it would be so nice!! Unfortunately, I have not been able to find it at a few of the Dollarama stores I frequent here in my city. 

They only get so much skin care items as it is, and most of them are masks or cleansers. I do not know of any retailers that normally carry Dead Sea Collection products off hand, so I may have to Google it and see where else I can purchase this in the future, although I doubt I will find it for such a low price as at Dollarama. We will have to see if I can find it, or another equivalently good cream, if I find another foundation that doesn't look great on my skin in the future.

What skin care items have you gotten for incredibly good prices?

Self Care is Good for the Soul

Image
I choose Sundays as my day to indulge in some beauty self care. I take a nice relaxing bath, I put on a face mask...sometimes a sheet mask, but most of the time it is some kind of mask you spread on your face manually.  The latest one I tried was this Life Brand Revitalizing Cucumber and Witch Hazel Peel-off mask. It was goopy and spread over the face nicely. It's a clear gel-type mask so you it's hard to tell in the picture below that I have anything on my face, other than it looking wet. I let it dry while I relaxed in the tub.  Once I could feel it was dry, I peeled it off. It left my face soft and glowing, but I wouldn't say it felt overly hydrating or plumped. Overall, it was nice mask to try and not overly expensive either, about $3 CAD at Shopper's Drug Mart. If you can get them on sale for 50% off, stock up on a few different kinds! After my mask, I washed my hair, shaved and washed up. That is how I like to relax each Sunday. What is your self care routine?

Versace Yellow Diamond Perfume Mini

Image
This is a mini bottle of Versace Yellow Diamond perfume. I purchased 3 mini Versace fragrances from Sephora and this is the first one I have tried.  Top notes of Pear Sorbet and Lemon; Middle notes of Mimosa and Orange Blossom; Bottom note of Musk. It is a fresh and lovely fragrance that makes me feel  both pampered and sophisticated.  Because it is a mini bottle, I wanted to mix it with these essential oils, with an ounce of alcohol, to accentuate the orange and lemon notes of the fragrance.  The carrier oil is Jojoba with a dash of Orange and Lemongrass essential oils. The alcohol acts as a filler as well as a thinning agent to make this beautiful scent go a little bit further!!  I probably will not purchase this fragrance, even though I really like it, because I have many others to get through, and many others I would like to try in the future.  Also, a 3 oz bottle retails for $95 CAD from the  Chic Parfums website. That's a little bit more than I would like to spend on a fragra

I Got My Colours Done!!

Image
For my birthday this past year I asked my husband to get me a colour consultation with a lady I have followed on YouTube for over four years.  Image courtesy of @useless_dk on Instagram Her name is Signe Hansen of www.uselesswardrobe.dk   and she is a certified stylist and colour consultant. Because I had already been following and corresponding with her in the past, I wanted to support her and get my colour consultation with her. I did have to do it virtually over Zoom because she lives in Denmark! You are probably familiar with "Colour Me Beautiful" colour draping services. However, it has really evolved over the years. I first heard about it in the 1980's when it used to divide each of us into different colour seasons based on our skin tone, hair and eye colour. Now it is more nuanced and there are more groupings that are more based on tones, shades and saturation of colour than just the four seasons. I sent Signe pictures of me in natural light, both with and without
