With this winter being sort of all over the place and my skin being in a pretty weird place coming into it after several months of 2020 exhaustion having trimmed down my skin routine to the bare minimum, I was absolutely DYING to try out these two products from the VICHY Liftactiv Supreme line - and so was my skin. Winter on the prairies is pretty rough on most people's skin, I think, and as I get older I'm definitely noticing more and more impact to how my skin behaves as the weather gets colder and drier, so these two products with their focus on a hydration and moisture to bring back that youthful bounce were definitely appealing!

Dr. Belmeur is one of those skin care brands that has been on my radar for quite a while now, one I've definitely been interested in trying out, but just hadn't gotten around to yet. So, obviously, I was super excited when I found out that some of their products are included in the AVON x THEFACESHOP collaboration. I've been trying out a couple of the products for the past several weeks now and I'm a little bit in love, so I'm super excited to share them with you guys!

The most exciting thing for me about Avon teaming up with THEFACESHOP to bring their customers KBeauty products is definitely the skin care aspect of it and I was super excited when I got the chance to try out the Mango Seed Moisturizing Butter* and the Mango Seed Radiant Moisturizing Oil*. I've had incredibly good luck with THEFACESHOP skin care in the past and winter was the absolute perfect time to put these two moisturizers to the test on skin that really needed that boost of moisture and protection.

I don't know about you, but for me summer is a time when I can be a little bit more devil-may-care about my skin care because the warmer weather and the higher humidity tends to be great for my skin type. However, as the seasons change and we find the temperatures dropping and the weather getting a little bit more unpredictable, I know that my skin tends to go through a bit of a period of chaos, especially the skin on my body that has been a little bit neglected and left to its own devices all summer. I like to think I'm pretty good at caring for the skin everywhere other than my face than I used to be, but I started noticing that I use both lotion and cream in different ways at different times, so I thought now was a good time to get into the difference between lotion and cream and how to choose the right product for your needs.

The list of products that I want to try out is... really long, I'll admit, but there are some products on that list that I've heard such amazing things about that I just absolutely have to try them out. The CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion* is absolutely on that list. CeraVe has become an absolute go to for me in my everyday skin care routine and this is by far one of their products that I've heard the most positive things about. While it may not be the sexiest product, it's one product that I've heard overwhelmingly positive things about to the point that I really do think it's one of those cult products in the making. I don't need sexy or promises of the moon in my skin care routine, I need products that work, so I reached out and got the opportunity to finally try it out for myself.

I have to admit that I slept on the It Cosmetics Secret Sauce Anti-Aging Moisturizer*. When I initially tried it, I think my skin must have been in a weird place because I wasn't really wowed by it, but recently as I've been getting back into skin care hard I reached for it again and I've kind of fallen in love. I think sometimes it's really good to lay off a product that didn't really do it for you initially and then come back to it later to see if it really gets the job done for you. Anyway, this is definitely a product that I'm kicking myself for sleeping on, so let's talk about it!
