New Skincare Products

That time when you run out of your favorite skincare products always comes. Sooner or later we need to re-buy them or in my case, sometimes I like to take that opportunity to try something new. 

A few weeks ago I ran out of my day and night creams (which I have bought back when I was traveling) so there wasn't a chance I could find the same exact products here in Argentina. So, I went to the drugstore in the search for some new and affordable skincare products to add to my routine and this is what I have found!

L'Oréal Hidra-Total 5

I have been loving a lot of L'Oréal products lately (like their concealer, mascaras, and BB Cream) so I thought I could give them a chance and try one of their skincare products. I choose the Hidra-Total 5 daily moisturizing cream because it looked quite interesting. It's supposed to provide 24-hour hydration to the skin, while also nourishing, brightening and toning it. What I also like about this product is that it has UV protection which is very important for a daytime cream. 
This product is designed for normal skin and it's working very well on my face. I feel that my skin is hydrated throughout the day. What I also love about this cream is that it has a very light texture and it absorbs very quickly, so I can complete my morning skincare routine within minutes :)

Tortulan Nourishing Night Cream 

I'm still in love with this Argentinian brand and so far I haven't found a product from them that I didn't like. After I also ran out of my night cream and decided to try something from their range of products and I'm very satisfied with it.
Their nourishing night cream is very simple but effective, it contains vitamin A and E which help the skin to recover their natural nutrition and contribute to regenerate the skin overnight. The texture of this cream is also quite light and it absorbs very quickly as well. It doesn't have a particular scent, it's very neutral and soft. 
Plus, the price of this product is very affordable and you get 110ml, that's like twice the amount of some other creams on the market. So you do get a lot of value for your money here.

Neutrogena Ultra Gentle Daily Gel Cleanser

I have been using Neutrogena products for many many years now and I always like to try something more from this brand. I think it was last month that I bought this cleansing gel and I have been using it every day. Again this product has a very good price and you are getting a massive amount (354ml)!
This cleansing gel is very delicate with the skin but it does a great job with taking out all of the dirt and impurities from the day. I normally use it every morning when I wake up and then in the evenings after I removed my make up. My face feels completely clean and refreshed after using this product so I'm very happy with the results right now!

Well, these have been the new skincare products that I have bought recently and that I have added to my routine. I hope you find this post useful and I would love to know if you have tried any new skincare products lately? Tell me in the comments!! :)

K-Beauty Wishlist from Wishtrend

As you may already know, this year I had the opportunity to try my first K-Beauty products and I have been completely obsessed with Korean skincare products since then. I have seen so many improvements on my skin and I had the best experience with those products I have tried from Wishtrend that I thought about sharing with you some other products I would love to try from this site!

Wishtrend is the right place to shop when it comes to K-Beauty, they have many amazing brands and they even have their own line of products, By Wishtrend. In addition, they always offer special promotions and events. From May 24 to May 31 they are doing the Cruelty- Free Brand Week which is a special event to raise awareness of cruelty-free brands as well as to support animal rights. Besides shopping for your favorite skincare products and getting some really cool gifts and benefits with your order, you will be supporting a very important cause! ;)

Therefore, I thought it was a great initiative to share with you here on the blog and also show you which products I would love to get my hands on!! 

1- Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask

I have always heard that Vitamin E is very good for the skin so when I saw this mask I got really curious about it. According to the site, this product is perfect for brightening and firming the skin, it has antioxidants and whitening properties so your skin looks hydrated and brighter the next morning after using this mask.

2- By Wishtrend TECA 1% Barrier Cream

I saw this product in one of the videos in Wishtrend's Youtube channel and it looks amazing! This is the perfect product to prevent acne scars and to help your skin regenerate, since it contains Centella Asiatica. The TECA 1% Barrier cream will also lighten pigmentation and it will soothe irritated skin.

3- Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Tencel Sheet Mask

I think it wouldn't be a K-Beauty wishlist if I didn't include at least one sheet mask! I have been dying to try one of their sheet mask and I think this one would be the perfect product for me. It's full of moisturizing ingredients such as Aloe Vera, Panthenol and Hyaluronic Acid which sounds amazing to add that extra hydration boost to the skin!

So, these would be the top 3 products I would choose from Wishtrend! Don't forget to check out their Cruelty- Free Brand Week from May 24 to May 31 (you can find all the information in the image below), and please let me know if you have tried any of these products or if there is any other Korean product I need to try! ;)

New Video: My Nighttime Skincare Routine

Once again it's time for a new video! I'm very excited because I'm still keeping it up with my goal of uploading one video per month on my Youtube channel. I know it's not that much but hopefully, at some point, I will be able to do more videos ;)

This time, I'm going to be showing you my current nighttime skincare routine because I thought it would be much more interesting to see this in a video rather than in a regular post. I also enjoyed a lot filming and, especially, editing this video because I feel like it was a little bit more challenging than the other ones I was doing before. And I also think I was able to apply more resources to show you what I do in my skincare routine at night. 

Also, I hope that in the near future I'm able to get a tripod because that would make things a lot easier since I had some problems with the frame in this video but I hope you don't mind :P I take this as an opportunity to learn and practice my skills. So, without any further talking, I'm going to leave you with the video. I hope you like it and please let me know in case you have any suggestions for things you would like to see on my channel :)

Monthly Favorites!

Before we start with this monthly favorites, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for the amazing comments and feedback you gave me on my last post and video!! It made me so happy that you also liked the idea of re-creating Instagram looks! I would try to make more videos like that in the future if you want! ;)

Anyway, there were a few new products I have been loving and using a lot during last month so I thought I would share them with you in this edition of Monthly Favorites! Let's start! :)

1- Nivea Creme Care Facial Cleansing Cream

I have just recently bought this new Nivea Cleansing cream and I'm loving it so far! The texture is very creamy and nice, it has the typical Nivea scent and I feel like it does a very good job cleaning my skin. I use it every morning and at night as well, and what I love about this product the most is that as this is very creamy it doesn't leave my face feeling dry after using it. On the contrary, I feel it quite hydrated so this is one of my favorites this month for sure! 

2- Neutrogena Hydro Boost Eye Gel-Cream

Continuing with skincare favorites, this Neutrogena Eye cream has also been one of my recent successful purchases. I have picked this product because I have heard very good things about it from some of my fellow bloggers so I was very interested in trying this out!
I really love the gel-cream texture it has because it feels very light and gentle. Also, I find it very refreshing when I apply it in my eye are and that is always a plus for me! ;)

3- Mavala Miss Chic Nail Polish Kit

This lovely nail polish set was a Christmas gift from my parents and I just realized that I haven't talked about it yet here on the blog! This kit contains two nail polish shades from Mavala and what I love about it is that both of them are very elegant and classic colors that you can wear all the time! 
The shade 156 Rococo Red is the perfect red and this is the one I have been wearing the most lately! It goes perfectly with any outfit and it adds that chic look. 
On the other hand, the shade 381 Rouge Forever is that deep red wine shade that looks amazing during Fall-Winter season. I haven't worn this one yet but once the weather starts to get colder here, I'm sure this would be my go-to nail polish! 

So that's it!! These have been my favorite products this month! I would love to know if you have tried any of these products and also I would love to know which are your favorites at the moment! :)
