The Eye Serum That Changed My Skin + My Beauty Favorites Right Now!

Hey ladies, welcome back to my channel. So this is a beauty favorites. I haven't done this in a long time and I have some products that I have been using over and over and over again that I have bought. I have a couple gifting items that have come via PR. So I'm very excited to share those with you. We are starting our semi-annual sale today, July 4th, happy 4th of July. It goes all the way until July 11th. So I'm very excited that you have a whole week. This is going to give you time to review those shoppable videos, to review the live videos that I've done with the trainings and the classes and the techniques. So you feel really comfortable with what you're purchasing and you're getting a discount. So I'm very excited about our semi-annual sale. This is really, really fun and incredible. And then I'm going to be talking about this eye cream that has really changed my under eye. You know that I've struggled with this pigmentation and this kind of inflammation since really, I think it's been 2020. I had a lot of, you know, just right in this area because of doing filler back in 2017 or 18. And then I had certain things cut out because of the filler. So I've had a lot of like drama go on in this area. So I bought, I bought some products. If you, if you follow me on Instagram, my, the package came and it was like the first week of May. And I said that the Frenchies, I have two little Frenchies. They bought me a mother's day gift and all these products were in it. And they were like, mom's worth it. And so luckily this eye cream has been quite an amazing thing. I just bought my second bottle the other day. So I'm going to share that with you because I'm really impressed one morning. So I've been using it for two months, but one morning I woke up and I thought, Oh my gosh, this is incredible. Like I literally stopped and said, I have less pigmentation. My eye area looks so much brighter, like more even toned. And I've been thrilled. So it's the first eye cream that I've really seen a difference with the issue that I've been dealing with. So let me start off first with doing my, my jewelry. I feel like I'm, I'm naked without having my earrings. I bought this at the Nordstrom anniversary sale. I think two years ago, it has my N on it. It was so inexpensive. I think it was like $16. They still have them. They're really great. I'm going to link everything below that I talk about. So I have showed you these Jenny bird. These are called mini tome. Earrings and they're, they're like my go-to. These are just these little hoops and I just find them to be great. This is what I, they match my watch and I wear them all the time. I just, I literally grabbed them and put them on and I like that they're not a stud. They're just like a little hoop. So of course I was like, I need to get these in silver. So I went to the website and it said they had one pair left. You know how that works. You put it in your cart and you check out and then later they'll cancel your order. So I was like, please don't cancel my order. So they didn't and they came and they are so great. So today with my little dress, I got this dress in Palo Alto last October when my husband and I were there, I was there for the Estee Lauder brand trip and my husband was off doing his own thing and he came back to the hotel and he said, Oh my gosh, I found a real real for you. I said, no, I was like, let's go. So when we were leaving to go on to Napa, we went to the real real. He picked this out for me. It's a cute little dress, a little Fendi dress has a matching belt. It's really comfortable. And I really, I love wearing it. I love the denim. So this is going to be really great. Now let me show you this other earring that I bought from Skoworski. I know I'm saying it wrong. It's okay. We're okay. We know what I'm saying. This is, it's called, I think, I think it's, I think it's called a cuff. It's not really a cuff, but it is three different crystals here and it's a clip on and it makes it look like, you know, you have more, you know, you have more holes. I only have one, which I only would have, but it looks like I have three. I just think it's really beautiful and it's really nice for an evening and it was under a hundred dollars. I got it on Amazon. I just love, I love these. I think it's really, I'm going to wear them tonight to dinner. I just think it's really beautiful. So let me just put these back in. Let's stop skincare first before we go into makeup. This is the double serum. I think this is my sixth or seventh bottle of this serum. I really enjoy it. This is the new formulation. I finished my old formulations. I reformulated it. Now look, I only have, do you see, that's all I have left. For some reason I feel like I go through this quickly and I'm just using one to two sports a night, but I really enjoy using this. I love how my skin feels and it's really been a staple in my skincare routine. Also with Clarence, I upgraded from that little miniature. I had like a little tester deluxe sample and so I upgraded to this really beautiful toner, hydrating toning lotion. It feels so good on my skin. I normally don't do a toner. I haven't, it wasn't like part of my steps. I enjoy this step. I'm gladly adding a step into my skincare because I put this on the Shiseido cotton and then I use it on my face after I cleanse and I just really love this. This is for normal to dry skin. It has the, uh, saffron flower extracts. I love saffron. So that's something that I've been using every single day. And then there's another product here that, Oh, here it is. I had another little sample of this. This is from Clarence. Clarence has been some, a brand that I've used since the nineties and a little fun fact as an esthetician, I, they had estheticians working their little spa treatment rooms at the different department stores when we actually had department stores and malls. And I remember always wanting to, I think I interviewed, I can't remember back in the day. I wanted to know the process. I think I inquired about being an esthetician for them and doing all of the different stores. And I have been using their product for, for that long. I think that it reminds me of the nineties, which I really look back at and think, I wish we were in the nineties, but that's another, that's a whole nother video. I just really love the philosophy. I did a deep dive recently about the company again, and it's just really interesting that a man has created this company for women and just the whole psychology behind it. This is a really, I didn't, this, if I get a little sample and I try it and I'm like, this is really good. I want to, I want to try it in a larger size. That's what I did. I bought this Hydra essential. It is a bi-phase serum with double hyaluronic acid. You know, I've been mentioning this a lot in my videos and it feels so good, especially for the summer and being in South Florida, this is just enough for my skin. I don't need to overload it. So that was one of the products. I actually bought this at Ulta. I don't even remember what products I, my Frenchie girls gave me in May besides this magnificent product that has changed my under eyes. This is the double serum, the double serum eye. I really didn't know what to expect. I understood it was a double serum, but when I, when I did a little squirt of it, it's the serum and then it's a cream. I was, I was like, that's so cool. Cause I couldn't really see in the actual bottle what was going on. I'm almost done. This is my first bottle. So this has lasted me over two months, right? Well, maybe we're right at the two month mark. So I have another backup bottle and I just use it one squirt one at night and I put it all underneath here and my eyes have looked so much more even toned, not a lot of redness, a lot of, not a lot of inflammation, which I'm just so grateful for. So this eye cream has changed my skin. And when you, when you stop and you realize like one morning you're like, wait, something's different. And it could be just subtle, but it's moving the needle. So this is a really, I really love it. I'm not going to depart from using it because it's made such a difference for me and that's something that I've been wanting to do. And I can't use super harsh ingredients around my eyes. So they're already having their own issues. So this is, this really works and I like the fact that I can do both eyes with one pump. I don't have to over dispense. I'm not putting my fingers into a jar either. I don't like that. I like that it's a pump. So that's been a really great purchase for me and it was just me experimenting and trying new things. You know that I love my facial patches. This is my frownies. This is what I do instead of Botox. And these, they come in different shapes. These are the ones that have all different shapes to, you know, you can customize them. I used to do them all over my forehead. I really concentrate on just this one line that I, that I have here. Sometimes I'll do, if I'm in the mood, I'll do more, but you know, there's a lot going on at night with my face. I do the frownies. I have the heated corner care eye patch on my eyes. I have mouth tape on like I'm doing the works. I'll get into some other things that I do, but sometimes I'm like, I'm just putting it right there. Cause that's my main concentration. I don't have to overwhelm myself at night. Like, Oh my gosh, I have to do it. Sometimes I'll forget and I'll get up and I'll just put the one on here. You just wet the back. I'll show you. These are just, they're perforated. So just wet the back. I don't really care what the shape is. And then I literally put it like that. And that's how I wake up. Yes. My husband is probably horrified, but this is what we do because I'm not doing toxic things to my body anymore. That is something that I always use and I really love. We're still into the skincare. I was, I received this from Tasha. It's a luminous dewy skin mist. I really like it cause it's a weird, um, it's weird formulation in the sense that you think you're going to spray it like all your other facial mists, but it's, it, it's so, it's like feather light on the skin. It's not squirt squirt either. You know, I don't like that. I don't know why. There's a lot of companies. I don't think that tests their sprayers and it's squirt squirt on your face, which you just did your makeup and now you have water droplets that ruined your makeup. I don't know. I don't know who's, I don't know who's testing these components, but that's not the way to do it. I can't tell you how many I've done. I've experimented with like at Sephora, whatever. And I, I'm like, it looks like we're gonna, we're gonna work. And then I spray it and it's like, Oh my gosh, like I just feel like I literally put my face in the shower and it's not what you want. So when you, when you spray this, it's the finest mist. It's like that just cooling mist and it gives you a little bit of doing this on the skin, which I really, I think you really do see it. It's just a little bit. It's not glossy and it's not like too heavy. I love that it feels like feather light on the skin. So that's something that I've been using that I really have enjoyed. And then of course my face primer, I've been really grabbing this a lot lately cause I really want that smooth application. So fiercely smooth is going to give that to you. I know a lot of ladies on the lives have been asking about how they can make their, their application look smoother. If you're not using a primer, this is a really great way to do that. And this is almost like a burst of hydration on the skin. So you would moisturize or put on your serum and then you put on your face primer and a nice thin veil. So then when you put on your concealer or your BB cream, it's going to really nicely lay on the skin. It's not going to gather and it's going to really look, look finished for your skin. Another thing that I've been really using and really loving is my eye primer. I've been showing it a lot on lives and you can see a big difference. It's almost an extension of our color corrector line. And I find this is really, especially during the summer when you want to wear less makeup, but look brighter and look really fresh. This is a really nice product because it has its own little brush here. It is a pink hue. So it's an extension of our color corrector collection. So this is going to color correct those darkness, that grays and the blues. And I like to just kind of really spot treat just in that eye area. And then I work it around. So I get that brightness. I have to get a concealer brush now. Hold on. I'm just taking my concealer brush and I'm going to just tap into this eye area here where I just wanted to get a little bit more bright. This is a great touch up. Also when you're maybe going to cocktails or coming from work or you just need a little brightness to the face, this is a really great way to do that. I just, this little area bothers me being so dark. And I want to lighten that up right here, right in here. So that's how you do it. You get a really nice brightness, makes the eyes look like just make some pop. And I've been really utilizing this product a lot more lately and I'm really enjoying it. Now, moving on to hair. I bought this little collection when I was at the salon. I think it was a month last month. I bought the Kerastase. They came out with, they were doing like a little event also, the hyaluronic acid and glycolic acid plus wild rose in oil. So I was like, has a rose in it. Of course I'm going to buy it. This is a shampoo. You know, I was using the old team forever. I thought we should mix it up. And then this is the conditioner. This is the Instaglaze hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid and wild rose oil. This is really supposed to, it says long hair prone to frizz. Well, my hair is not long, but it is prone to frizz. So this has been really nice to change up and it smells incredible. And then I bought the glaze drops that were, they had, I had this on my list actually in my bag at Sephora online. And then I don't know what happened. And then when I saw it there, I said, Oh my gosh, I have to have these. And he's like, Oh wait, we don't have any more left. I was like, he's like, I think I might have one. So he would dug into this bag. It's like, thank goodness. It smells so beautiful. So I'm going to just use like three or four drops and we're going to, I usually concentrate just on this area here. Like this right here is like what loves to frizz. I just, I'm just smoothing it back and it's not a heavy oil. It's not, you know, like it's going to weigh it down. I find it to be very nice and lightweight. And then I do the underneath because my hair is shorter underneath and it likes to get a little frizzy. But when you smell like this, this oil, you're going to be like, Oh my gosh, I just want to put it all over my hair. Because it's when you like tussle your hair, it smells delicious. Speaking of hair, this is how I get around expensive perfumes. And I've taught you this trick for a while now, because I think I started with the Baccarat Rouge cause you know, it's like $550 or maybe it's more now. And I thought that was quite expensive. So what I did was is I bought the hair mist instead. I think it's $85 I buy at Nordstrom and it's Baccarat Rouge hair mist. So you're getting the same scent. It's obviously lighter, but you can spray it into your hair and you really get the benefit cause you smell it all the time. But it's nice because it's just a little bit when people, you know, it's not overpowering, but it's a way to save money. And that's what I've done with maybe some fragrances that are a little bit higher. I'll go into doing a hair mist. So Rose of No Man's Land is really beautiful. This is a different type. Oh no, actually it's not, but this was, um, aerosol. It's not, but you can spray this on the hair. You get it. This is if you like rose. And these are very complex roses. It's not like what you're thinking of like a rose perfume. These are very complex. You really should smell them when you go to Nordstrom or you're at the store. So you can see this is from by radio. You can see what it really smells like. I just bought this rose by radio hand moisturizer. I wanted it in this big jug next to my nights on my nightstand because I just wanted to, I'm always hydrating my hands. And so this smells so beautiful. Like you're getting into bed. We have this really nice soft fragrance. I really have enjoyed this. I bought that actually this, but this past month, another one that's really nice. And this is actually a pretty affordable rose perfume. I have the hair mist and the perfume, but this is from Diptyque. And this is a really nice, very light, very fresh rose fragrance. If you want to get out of the rose, you can go into Coco Chanel Mademoiselle is so beautiful. It's so many compliments on this fragrance and you can put it into your hair. It's really, it's gorgeous. And this is really nice too to throw in your purse and be able to do it throughout the day. But it's because it's not a lot, you know, you're just kind of refreshing, just giving you that like light mist. Now a perfume that I bought in New York in May, when I was back up there is this is called perfumes day Marley. It opened up on fifth Avenue and I knew I wanted to go and get this perfume. It's so beautiful. And I bought this little set. So I have a baby one. So I have the big one and the baby one that I can take on a trip. And I think it's so beautiful in your vanity. It's so feminine. It's just gorgeous. And this is really interesting. This I can't even explain it. It's, it's so beautiful. And you know, what's really nice about fragrance is buying a fragrance when you're on a trip or buying a fragrance for your birthday, because you always remember where you were, what the trip was, or, Oh, I bought this for my 60th birthday, or this is what I wore. It's just, it brings back memories. So I really love the fragrance sticking in with the rose. Of course, I have so many complex roses. It's all over the place. And I love putting on Tom Ford's, uh, ombre leather first, and then I'll put on my rose perfume. And I have to tell you last week when I did that, I did, I did that combo. And the waitress kept saying she would come over and say, Oh my gosh, this smells so beautiful. It smells so luxurious and expensive. And I was like, Oh, my combo worked. So it's really nice to give yourself a signature fragrance. Don't be afraid to layer like that. And it's just like with makeup when you're doing your signature lip and you're putting on a lipstick and putting the lip gloss over. That's something I really love to do because no one else is going to smell like you. So it's a little complex, a little bit different. They're picking up different notes here and there, and they're not quite sure what it is. This morning, I got a beautiful gift from Guerlain. They have Rosa, Rosa, I guess that's what it's called. The packaging is beautiful and it came with their hand cream. So it's the same. Oh my gosh. I didn't know what to really expect. And it, you know, even though these are all roses, I know you're going to think I'm crazy, but they all smell so different and there's not one I don't like. So today when this came, I was like spraying it all over. And then the hand cream, I was like, Oh my gosh, I'm in heaven. I really love this. The only thing I don't love about this is that this comes off. I don't like that when you put on a hand moisturizer. So here I go, right? First of all, the squeezing, I would really like to have a little pump. So now I have to, I can put this on, but if I didn't and I dropped, and then I put my hand moisturizer on, then I have to get back to the cap. I like things that are just very easy. And then I don't have to worry about the cap falling off, not getting it back on. That's the only, that's the only thing I have to say about this packaging. I didn't like, it's beautiful, but I don't like that. I thought it was going to flip up and stay up, but it doesn't. My next two products were trusting that I was going to like them. I ordered them from France and this is a body oil. It is a tuberous rose. It's so delicious. I wasn't sure what to expect. And then I got a different rose fragrance for the soap. And they also, I did a custom comb where I put my initials on it because I'm always about the details. This is what they're really known for is I got my initials right there on the comb. They do it on lip balms too. And it's just really neat. I love the customization. And then they gave me, this was like a sample pack that you can, these are all their different fragrances. So you scratch here and you can sniff all of their different. So eighties, right? Scratch and stiffs little stickers. It's not a sticker though. It's just all of the different fragrances they have. So you can, I think that's a really great way to know you're, you're not going to know what they smell like. And this is a great way to be able to do that. So I, I bought these. I absolutely love them. This is such a great choice. Again, I layer this, I'll put this on, then I'll do a little fragrance. It's really nice, but I've been thrilled with these two. For my toothpaste, I have been using for over a year now. Marvis it's from Italy. I truly enjoy it. I bought a sample pack before and had all of the different flavors like licorice and mints and ginger and really interesting. And I've just stuck with the mints. Cinnamon's really nice too. I know it's very different, but I really enjoy that. Now back to the hair real quick. I do like the Orbea texturing, texturizing spray. I've been using this for years. This is really nice. If you really want texture in the hair, go to the roots, be able to really texturize your hair, get that fullness and volume. If you were in a humid climate, like I am, I like to use the anti-humidity spray. It really does work. I found it one day online, I think. And I thought anti-humidity, why didn't anyone tell me about this? The next product is really interesting. It's called Hani. And what this is, it's called a splash self. This has been in my bath, in my shower. So it's like falling apart, but this is a splash self for intensely moisturizing. It's water activated. So you take out after you shave, this is how I use it. You can use it. I think this is really going to be great for crepey skin also. But when I shave my, my hair is so thick and I have to shave every day. So my legs are very dry and I usually get like razor burn sometimes because maybe it's not like I should have changed the shaver. So what I'll do is I'll take out this and put it all over my legs and they, you know, a nice thin layer. And they say, just let the water run. You don't rub it or offer anything. And then you get out and you pat dry and my skin is so moisturized and I love the scent. It's just really fresh and, you know, just really calming. And I would have never known about them if they didn't reach out. So I'm thrilled that they did. And then the other product that they sent me, it's called the fatty. I picked this out because I really wanted this for my heels. I use this on my heels at night and I roll this up. I roll it all over my heels and then I put on those socks from Amazon that have the gel in them. And I have to, I don't know, for some reason, I walk around barefoot on the tile. I know that's what it's from. I don't always wear my little UFAs. So this is great because I don't have to touch the products. I just roll it on my heels, put on the socks and we're done. And then I just screw this back on. This is the best product. These two, if you're looking for hydration and you want to have really simple way, you don't have to moisturize when you get out. That's the way to go. And then this last product, I showed this on my live the other night. This is called, I found on Instagram, it's called Under Wonder Perspiration Protectors. I got them in black and I got them in nude. This is from Australia. It's an Australian brand. And I was just getting really tired of ruining all of my silk tops during the summer or when I'm on set, I do sweat because of the lights and it's hot and I'm under pressure. And so I have really sweat through a lot of my clothes and I don't want to do that with like vintage jackets or my, you know, whatever. I'm, I just don't want to keep dry cleaning. If I don't have to, I'd really rather be steaming and doing the care that I need to without a lot of chemicals. So this, these are like little pads that you basically I'll open one so you can see what it looks like. So the pads go like, they're like this. It's hard to see cause it's black, but you put them on, like they just cup over your armpit. So that's where you put them. So this absorbs all of the sweat and everything and it protects your garment. And I think these are really great. So I have black ones. So if you're wearing a black top or, you know, you're not going to see it. Or if you are, you know, have a lighter colors on, they have the, the tan ones. So I really, I like them a lot. I have to do tell you I did what I was telling on my live the other day. I wore them to lunch the other day in may and it was outside. We sat outside, which is just about the time that you can't do that here in South Florida. And so when I got up, I was in my blouses, silk blouse, but it was a little bit, it was looser, you know, it was a button down long sleeve and I didn't know where the pad went. And I thought, Oh, please, please be still in my shirt. Please, please don't fall out through my pants. So I just was like, let me get to the car without like my little packs. I don't think I squished it on my shirt tight enough cause it was loose. So the pad was like wandering around in my, in my, my shirt somewhere, but it like got caught before like on my belt. So I couldn't go down my pant leg. Thank goodness. But just so you know, you have to be very precise and you have to make sure it's really stuck on there. That is basically some of my favorites that I've been using on repeat and I really like finding products that I continuously use every single day. I really enjoy using them. I look forward to repurchasing them. And you know, it's just to give you a little highlight of things that I like and what I'm kind of sourcing from just, you know, I take a risk a lot and I'm really happy I do because that's when I find some really good products. Not sure how they're going to smell, but I'm always, I'm always so thrilled because I haven't, I haven't been disappointed yet, which I hope I'll never be disappointed, but I just really enjoy just finding new beauty products and really seeing a difference in my face, loving products that really work and they do fantastic things like the eye cream. I couldn't be more thrilled. So I hope you enjoyed that. And until my next video, I'll see you later.
