Cassis Ultra Replenishing Cream
This concentrated cream combines Black Currant Oil and Hyaluronic Acid to improve elasticity and promote vibrant looking skin.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Key Active Ingredients:
  • HYALURONIC ACID (HA): known for its ability to hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, this ingredient helps the skin to retain moisture
  • CASSIS (Black Currant Oil): This seed oil is a rich source of Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA) and other important polyunsaturated fatty acids Omega-6 and Omega-3, known to soothe and improve skin resilience
  • VITAMIN E: a powerful antioxidant, this vitamin helps to fight free radical damage
  • VITAMIN B COMPLEX: B vitamins improve the skin’s ability to take up oxygen and help keep the production of sebum at appropriate levels.  Application of a Vitamin B Complex to the skin increases resistance to irritation by noxious chemicals and therefore makes this ingredient essential as a “Big City” protective cream

.....My Thoughts

Website: I browsed the website and it seems that Naturopathica has a lot of interesting products, many that I wish to try. The website is very easily to navigate and understand, simple and clean. There are symbols on every product to show just what sort they are as you may have seen from underneath the photo I posted above, I like that! You can read about the company and get a lot of other information at www.naturopathica.com

Price: $85.00USD

Size: 50ML / 1.7FL OZ
Packaging: The Jar is a dark cobalt blue, transparent. It looks very pretty in the light. The jar clearly displays all information needed. The name, size, directions, contact, Targeted act & much much more! Very clean looking. The lid is black and twists on of course there was a divider between the lid and product when I first received it.

SCENT: Hmm it seems to me like..Twig & Sweet Soy Bean. I love it! It smells very healthy for my skin, very settle scent.

APPLICATION&TEXTURE: The application is simple, apply just a small bit "pea size" to the entire (clean) face. It smooths over the face easily leaving only the softest skin. The texture is not heavy on application actually just the opposite. It is a creamy soy like color and delicate to touch. I enjoy applying this product, I actually look forward to it every morning and night! I did find however using more then the recommended amount left my skin over moisturized in the morning so I continued to only use the recommended amount after that. I am sure over time this cream will show more of what it is truly for, age defense. I have been using it for about a good month or so and find that my makeup does not crease into my skin lines as much as before however to truly have them vanish would take a great deal of time! Ill keep you posted as always :)

ALL&ALL

I love love love it. I feel like after a clean face it keeps in and seals the cleanness and works on improvement to my skin as it does so. Sometimes you can tell when a product is worth your while by the difference it gives or performs on your skin. This Cream defiantly gives well at even first use. I'm sure i'll find myself purchasing another bottle when i'm close to being out of this jar. Very good indeed.

In this package sent to me by the company I was also given 3 samples to try, I plan to post separate reviews on them givin they were all very different as far as my thoughts on them. Until next time friends!

Review: NutriMinC RE9

"I was not paid to do this review, I bought all items with my own money! The review is based on my opinion and mine only!"





Last month I held a 24hr giveaway and included a 7pc Sample Pack of NutriMin C Products. The samples themselves are very precious they sell on ebay for like $20.00!! I had a set of samples for my winner and a set for myself. I landed up loving the products!! I bought a few of the items I use most often. They are kind of pricey but if you really are a skin junkie like me then you'll love them as well.

My Thoughts:




REcover, Night Créme
I Think : I love this product! The texture is very much the same as a whipped creamy butter. It holds the color of a soft baby type of yellow. The smell is almost not there but smells of crushed almonds to me. (actually one of the ingredients used in the formulation.) when you apply it on your face it blends well and sinks into the skin as if it were silk. It is very moisturizing! I have found that the product used with the others has helped firm and tone my skin. When I wake up in the morning my skin is still soft and is not oily, not even a tad bit. <-- I have very oily skin!! :(

 

REality SPF 8, Day Créme
I Think :Another product that I just fell in love with within my sample pack! It smells slightly like oranges! Sweet and yummy! Not an overpowering smell, you can only really tell by smelling it fairly close. It blends well into the skin and stays a bit moist for a few minutes allowing me to use it as the base to my makeup. It keeps my skin smooth throughout the day and I noticed my lines seem to be filled and my makeup looks a lot more even. A little goes a long way and one pump covers my entire face :)



REversing Gelée, Transforming Lift
I Think :Yes... it smells of oranges as well :) The product does as it says it makes my face feel a bit tight (not in a horrid way) It gives a temporary lift to my face. It is a bit oily I thought it would carry the same texture as my "ANEW REJUVENATE Flash Facial Revitalizing Concentrate". Its a bit thicker but sinks into the skin fairly well. I find putting a Moisturizer over it helps with the oily feeling. It reminds me of a toner. It's a bit funny until the cherry on top is added. It is a jell like substance not like the "Day creme: in the photograph. It is like a milky sort of water. Overall I love the item and I don't regret it in any way.

Appearance:
I Think :All the products I currently own and as you can see come in a very sleek packaging. The Autumn Orange is very nice. It has the Company name, Product & amount on front. On the back it displays the product name as well as the usage instructions, Item number, contact info, and ofc "please recycle"

The lids of all products are a metal base not shiny but in matte form. They have a gold color and all lids fasten well to the product keeping out the unwanted, and keeping in your product. They scream high quality.


Have any of you tried these products or any of their others!? Ill be buying more backups of these products as well as more of their other products! I will use them as long as the brand stays alive and the quality stays true.
