ELLA K BEAUTY REVIEW

Boscia Oil-Free Daily Hydration SPF 15 Review

Oil-Free Daily Hydration is a silky, lightweight lotion with a clean herbal scent.  The formula includes octinoxate and avobenzone for sun protection, silica powder to absorb excess oil, and botanical extracts for healthy skin.  The lotion quickly sinks into the skin, providing light hydration and a weightless matte finish.  This product would be best suited for normal to oily skin.

Philosophy Eternal Grace Eau de Toilette Review

Eternal Grace is a fresh floral scent.  The fragrance opens with a green-citrus note that quickly gives way to a clean, slightly rosy aroma.  Gradually, the composition reveals a tender violet flower with fresh powdery undertones.  The violet eventually disappears into a barely-there musk base.  Notes include: Bergamot, Neroli, Geranium, Lavender, Violet, Passion Fruit, Musk, Amber.

CLEAN Summer Escape Eau Fraiche Review

Summer Escape is a clean summer fragrance.  The opening features a refreshing blend of crisp citrus and cool green melon.  As the fragrance evolves, the citrus mingles with airy water lily and a touch of honeysuckle.  The citrus-floral accord quickly fades to a fresh linen base with a hint of musk and white sand.  Notes include: Bergamot, Beach Grass, Mandarin Orange, Water Lily, Summer Peony, Beach Honeysuckle, Orange Flower, Cotton Blossom, White Sand Accord, Driftwood, Coconut Water.

Cartier Delices de Cartier Eau de Toilette Review

Delices de Cartier is a juicy fruity-floral scent with a subtle oriental base.  The fragrance opens with bright cherry and a sprinkling of bergamot and pink pepper.  As the cherry mellows, it blends into a velvety bouquet of jasmine, violet and freesia.  The floral accord slowly dries down to a muted vanillic-amber base with a touch of musk and woods.  Notes include: Iced Cherry, Bergamot, Pink Pepper, Violet, Jasmine, Freesia, Amber, Tonka Bean, Musk, Sandalwood.

Olay Professional Pro-X Eye Restoration Complex Review

Pro-X Eye Restoration Complex is a lightweight eye cream stored in an airtight container with a pump dispenser.  The fragrance-free formula is enriched with niacinamide, caffeine, vitamin E and peptides.  The cream applies and absorbs easily, leaving a smooth matte finish on the skin.  The formula lightly hydrates the skin around the eye area and softens the appearance of fine lines.  This product is not very effective in reducing dark circles and puffiness around the eyes.

Ole Henrisken Enlighten Me Skin Tone Corrector Review

Enlighten Me Skin Tone Corrector is a transparent amber-colored serum with a refreshing citrus scent.  The water-based formulation contains vitamin C, lactic acid, sodium hyaluronate, antioxidants and botanical extracts.  The serum feels sticky going on but it dries nicely, leaving the skin soft and hydrated.  The lactic acid gently exfoliates the skin to gradually fade minor pigmentation flaws. 

Jack Black Performance Remedy Sun Guard SPF 45 Review

Sun Guard SPF 45 is a non-greasy white lotion without added fragrance.  The formula protects the skin from the sun with zinc oxide, chemical sunscreens, antioxidants and plant extracts.  The lotion absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving a white residue behind.  The formula is water resistant, but it removes easily with cleanser and water.
