Review: MAC Mineralize Concealer

I suffered with acne throughout high school and when I got to college, my skin started getting a lot better. The breakouts are minimal now and my skin looks way better than it looked before. But the downside of having acne is that your skin can become red and blotchy and worst of all, dreaded post-acne scars.

I hate acne scars with a burning passion. They're usually red or brown in color and they seem to take forever to go away. One of my good friends gifted me with the MAC Pro Longwear Concealer in NC30 for Christmas and I liked it a lot. It had a lot of coverage and covered my spots well. However, for some reason, during the summer, my skin became drier than usual (which is weird for me but whatever) and if I used this concealer, it would kind of accentuate my dry spots. I was almost done with the bottle so I decided that maybe it would be time to start using a new concealer. After dinner with my friends, we decided to go to a MAC store and I started a friendship with a new concealer.

Review: Organix Awapuhi Ginger Dry Styling Oil

My hair has been colored several times over the past couple of years. I've had highlights, dyed my hair, and even ombred my own hair. I've gone through several hair-related escapades and in return, my hair can be dry at times. To top it all off, I blow-dry my hair everyday because my hair air dries really weird (but seriously). I try to take a lot of effort in maintaining it in order to prevent it from damaging even further. That's where Organix Awapuhi Ginger Dry Styling Oil comes in (that was a mouthful!). I've tried out other Organix products in the past, but this one is the only one so far that I would repurchase. Why?

In the past, I've tried the Organix Penetrating Moroccan Argan Oil and Shampoo. Both products were simply just "ok" for me. I had high hopes for the Organix Penetrating Moroccan Argan Oil because argan oil is really good for dry hair. However, the results weren't that superb and I felt like it was making a hair flatter than usual.
