Clean & Clear Fresh Skin Routine

October 28, 2015 Danielle D'Ornellas

Is this Clean & Clear pic a blast from the past?

Clean & Clear is one of those brands that brings back fond (or, un-fond) memories of adolescence for me. I wasn't the pimpliest of kids thankfully, but that's because I was good at keeping oils at bay! I absolutely was a Clean & Clear girl but I know the brand isn't just for teens, so I was curious to see how these products stand up to my adult skin. I chose the selection for combination skin and was presented with this set of products.

Kat Von D Studded Kiss - Wolvesmouth

Despite being a girl who raves about how she absolutely adores a bold lip, until a year or so ago, **a bold lip for me always meant bright**. Electric pink, a poppin' fuschia, a disco purple, a fire-engine red. It wasn't until recently that bold also meant dark. I've always been slightly curious about the goth or industrial punk aesthetic, but have never been fashion adventurous enough to explore it. But now at least I can add a little edge with my makeup and Kat Von D Studded Kiss in Wolvesmouth just makes it a whole lot easier.

Dreaming up scent memories with Demeter

Rain, grass, dirt. These scents can invoke an intense reaction to a person, especially somebody who is allergic to so many of the scents that she loves! But oh, do I love those scents. As the seasons change and summer's musky, dry heat switches to the crisp smell of wet, decaying leaves of fall, I'm always amazed by how much a single scent can bring me back to a different time of year.

When Demeter asked me to choose a scent memory that went way, way back, I knew I had to choose Thunderstorm.

BzzAgent Review: Secret Clinical Clear Gel

Time to take a break from our regularly scheduled posts about beauty and makeup on the outside, to tackle something that affects us all but is a LITTLE more invisible. That's right, I'm making a transparency joke about Secret Clinical Clear Gel, a product I received for review this month from BzzAgent. I'm a regular Jerry Seinfeld!
