Perfectly Posh: Apricots Overnight Face Mask

With my last order from Perfectly Posh I was given a sample of Apricots Overnight face mask.  I have never tried an overnight mask before, but I love face masks!  I figured it wouldn't hurt.

 I loved the smell.  Apricot smells wonderful to me, so if you don't like the smell of apricots you won't like this.

very unflattering picture....oh well.

One thing that I hate about Posh products is that their directions are a bit lacking for their products.  At first I put too much on my face.  I ended up wiping a lot off.  It wasn't sticky, but I was worried that it would ruin my pillow case, so I couldn't go to sleep without a towel under me.  I had a hard time sleeping with the towel under me, so I noticed that it sort of pilled up (like a wool sweater would pill).  In the morning my face felt nice, but then by the end of the day it felt super dry.

Not my favorite product.  I don't do overnight masks, so I am not one to judge whether this is a good product or not.

Carefree Acti-fresh pantiliners

I participate in Influenster's Sample program.  They send me free product in exchange for honest reviews.  This box was Carefree acti-fresh pantiliners.  It was NOT my favorite product to be sampling.  Knowing a few other people who also got this same product, I suspect they were choosing people that had recently had a baby.

This is not my favorite pantiliner.  I usually prefer playtex if I am going to use some (which rarely happens).  These pantiliners were small and thin.  Probably a major plus for most people.  However, I struggle to see how this would cover much of anything.  I never had any issues with these liners, but they just didn't seem very special.  I will stick to Playtex liners for the times that I feel I need liners.

Perfectly Posh

When I became a Jamberry consultant, I decided to join a consultant of the month group of Facebook (I know of a fantastic one if you are looking for one).  This group is fantastic for networking, but it also introduces me to new companies and products that I have never heard of before.

One of these companies is Posh beauty products.  Everything is under $25 and they pride themselves on offering alternative options to normal beauty products on the market.  According to their website they are:

• Pampering products made in the USA
• Gentle, natural ingredients
• No parabens, paraffins, sulfates, lanolin, or fillers
• Lots of natural butters and essential oils
• Many vegan options
• No animal testing

I had entered a raffle (and lost), so I needed to purchase some items from a Posh consultant.  I chose a face mask called Seawitch, and Play Footsie Fabulous Fizzies.

I was super excited to try the clay mask!  It is made with kelp and algae.

This mask smelled like the ocean!  

It was a very calming, and cooling mask.  It was pretty wonderful.  When it came time to wash it off I ended up being concerned.  As you can tell from the picture below.....it turned my face VERY red!

As it turns out this is normal.  It just means that the toxins are being pulled out of the skin.  The redness lasted about ten minutes before it went away.  It left my face feeling like a baby's behind!  Super soft!  Loved the product.  Will be buying more when I use this up!

The next product that I tried was the Play Footsie Fabulous Fizzies.  (Love the name!)  These are super easy to use.  You just drop one into warm water.  It fizzes around (basically a bath bomb).  You soak your foot in it as long as you want.  It had a refreshing raspberry smell mixed with peppermint.  The peppermint I think made it give my feet a cooling sensation.  It was very relaxing!

My feet were pretty scruffy after the winter.  After I soaked my feet I used a stone to help get the dead skin cells off, and they just seemed to slide off.  Now I have silky smooth feet.  I am not sure if I liked this product enough to buy it again, but they were still very nice.
