Hi Angie,
I appreciate the research you so willingly share about skin care products. I have replaced my entire skin care regime since April, 2017 and am seeing my skin’s hydration dramatically improved, even at the age of 64. I look forward to learning more from your videos.

In your “Favs & Fails: July 2017” video you mentioned the damage to your nails from wearing the gel products. I have worn Shellac nail products for several years and have found that Creative Nail Designs has a line of products that have restored my nails to impressive strength and beauty in a short time. I have used CND RescueRXx Daily Keratin Treatment (purchased from Amazon) twice daily (on unpolished nails) immediately after removing the Shellac from my nails and it restored my nails to health very quickly. I have also just recently discovered that CND Cuticle Eraser Gentle Exfoliator does a very nice job of keeping cuticles looking hydrated and healthy. I encourage you to try the CND RescueRXx Daily Keratin Treatment first and watch the improvement in your nails. If you try the CND products, I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Thanks for some more great suggestions. I purchased the Drunk Elephant facial product – and can I just say everyone in Sephora commented on how great it is. I can’t wait to use it. Two questions to that end. First, I was going to use Sat. before a dinner party. Is that a safe bet?

More importantly, it advises against Renova the dayS before and after. Well, I’m with you on Renova being the holy grail. I’ve used it for many years (with some inexplicable breaks in between) and those who use it know it takes the skin time to acclimate. So for many reasons, I don’t want to step away from it. But I’m eager to try this Drunk Elephant product weekly, as suggested. What’s your strategy?

Thanks! And have a wonderful weekend!

  Oh, I guess I didn’t read the instructions very thoroughly… I just used it on a night I dropped out my Retin-A. I probably wouldn’t do it right before a dinner party though just in case I was all red & splotchy (which I wasn’t) but just to be safe!

Can you let me know what the eye shadows were from beauty junkies and the blushes too! I really like all the colors in your palette. I think your fabulous. I’m 55 and enjoy all your videos. I’m a fellow makeup and beauty junkie as well.
Thank you! God bless.

Hey Angie- love your blog and look forward to the new videos every week.

Just wanted to let you know that the 25% off code – 25FLASHY – did not work on Amazon for a Beauty Junkees product. Not a big deal but I thought you’d like to know.

Thanks,
Debra

  Thanks for letting me know Debra! I contacted Beauty Junkees and they gave me a new code for Amazon which is 25HOTFLA. Sorry about that…

  I LOVE Drunk Elephant. I use the Sukari Baby Facial once per week, the C-firma Day serum, the B- Hydra, The Umbra Sheer Physical Defense, Shaba Complex Eye serum, La La Retro Whipped Cream moisturizer. I wish I could use their TLC Famboos Glycolic Acid Night Cream, but I can’t mix it with my Retin-A which I use every night except when I use the Sukari Baby Facial. My skin is so much better. I really like the line.

Hi Angie,
Really enjoyed this recap as I have been trying to find that RMCA setting powder, just saw it on Beautyish and was about to send for…saw several reviews a couple months ago from different bloggers and for the price it looked good. Now I won’t bother. It’s so nice to have you review items.

thank you
