Best face wash for dry or combination skin!

Image
Best face wash for dry or combination skin! I have combination skin type and always was concerned about using the face washes as most of them made my skin dry (specially around chin, lips, and eyes). Recently I tried the Fresh soy face cleanser and I'm loving it!                                                            I'm suffering from eczema. I've noticed that after using this face cleanser the symptoms got better and I never had flare-ups ever again. I have been using other products of Fresh as well. I'm sure the other products have been helping a lot too. I'll write about them in another post 😊 I would recommend this face wash for sensitive skins too. 

Is Rodan + Fields ENCHANCEMENTS Lash Boost good?

I stopped using Rodan + Fields ENCHANCEMENTS Lash Boost after a month   I only used this product for a month and then I stopped for the following reason: For the first two weeks my eyes were a little red and irritated in the mornings. I didn't discontinue as I really wanted to give this product a chance! The redness and irritation went away after two weeks and everything was ok.  After a month, I noticed that my under eyes are getting darker! I never had dark under eyes and I am sure it had to do with this product. I googled and found out some others have had the same issue.  I stopped using this eye serum right away even though I paid $180 for it! After almost two months I noticed that my eyelashes have become longer and fuller. I got good results on my lashes despite I had used it for only a month but it was disappointing to see such a side effect.                  I really wanted to continue using this product as I loved how my lashes looked but I was re

Best treatment for dry lips!

Best treatment for dry lips!  Are you having dry lips and picking your lips all the time? If so, read below.  I always suffered from super dry and peeling lips. I kept trying different lip products and sadly non of them worked. I even made lip scrubs at home but didn't see any change on my lips. Drinking more water didn't help either.  Below are some of the nourishing lip balms/treatments that I've used: -A vene Cold Cream Nourishing Lip Balm with Shea Butter for Chapped Lips -Burt's Bees -NIVEA -Labello -EOS and many more.  Few months ago I went to Sephora and decided to try the Fresh lip treatment called:  Sugar Advanced Therapy                                                             This cost $26 and for sure that's the most I've ever paid on a lip treatment! I started using it every day in the morning and at night. After about 1.5 months I noticed that my lips are not dry anymore and they're so soft! I notic

Does MiraDry work?

Does MiraDry work? The short answer is No!  A little background about me:   I had been suffering from hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating) since I was a teenager and those big under arm sweat marks always embarrassed me. Despite using antiperspirant deodorants multiple times a day, still the odor and sweat would bother me. I always tried different types of deodorants from normal to clinical strength but they all work pretty the same and they decrease the odor and sweat to some extent only.  About a year ago I started researching about more permanent ways of stopping or decreasing the sweat and it looks like that there are two different methods:  -Botox injection   -MiraDry Botox VS. MiraDry How does Botox work? Sweat glands are stimulated by a neurotransmitter. Botox decreases sweating by temporarily blocking or interrupting this neurotransmitter. The effect of Botox lasts only few month and it needs to be repeated. Apparently patients usually experience 50-80% r
