I’ve been trying to tackle my son’s acne for months now. He still has breakouts and I am also trying to prevent scarring! We found two brands that offer gentle acne help for the family and beyond!
When it comes to our beauty products, I try to choose natural and cruelty-free. I want products that are gentle and safe for the whole family!
… [read more]If you’re looking for a no fuss acne skincare line, I am so excited to introduce Surreal Skincare to you! I was lucky enough to try a variety of their products that are cruelty free and natural! If you’re ready to assassinate your acne with the right arsenal, keep reading!
As a busy mom, I wanted to let you know that the Surreal Skincare products can be a lot of steps in your skincare routine, so it’s up to you how you incorporate them! I prefer to use this line at night with exception to the Makeup Milk. Since I wear makeup, I felt like wearing so many layers of deliciousness on my face would not work under my makeup. My face is usually supple and moisturized and trying to apply makeup would be messy!

I tried a few products with very small results. We recently found Grandpa’s Soap! Now, we can naturally tackle teen acne and beyond!
When it comes to beauty, I prefer natural, vegan, cruelty free products! My son and I even use natural deodorant! Even with household cleaners, I choose natural products as much as possible!
… [read more]Acne is the bane of my existence. I take pride in my skin, and have a rigorous routine to help fight aging. Yet sometimes, a little friend likes to rear its ugly head and spoil your day. To help battle those inconveniences that can put a damper on your confidence, we tried some amazing acne fighting products to help reclaim your beautiful skin.
These are definitely strange and stressful times we’re living in right now. In our state, COVID-19 has everyone quarantined in their homes. Unemployment is high, grocery stores are pretty cleared out, and everyone is feeling stressed. My job let us know that we’d be off of work indefinitely until it was safe for the school district to resume. My husband’s employer did the same. In addition, less than three weeks prior, I lost my father. Basically, with all the combined stress, my skin started to explode in painful cystic acne.
At the store, my usual cleanser was gone and impossible to find online. I was desperate for a solution! Signature Clear had really good reviews, so I was excited to give it a try.
I have to admit, the idea of rubbing a product with oil all over my cystic acne made me very hesitant. But, I decided to be brave and trust the process. I highly recommend trying the Acne Clearing Bundle. It’s everything you need, and it gave me a chance to try each of the products. For me, the Acne Clearing Bundle worked harmoniously to clear my breakouts.
First, I started with the Magic Melter by taking a pea sized amount and warming it up in the palm of my hands. Then, I rubbed the Magic Melter over my face, avoiding eyes. Lastly, take the dampened muslin cloth and wipe off the Magic Melter from the skin. You may also repeat this process. I love this stuff because it really “melts” away the makeup, oil, and impurities from my skin. My skin looks and feels very clean!
Next, I recommend following up with Magic Oil. Apply a few drops to your hand, rub together in palms, and apply to your face. Concentrate especially on the areas with heavy breakouts. This hydrating oil helps clear acne and strengthens your skin against bacteria. Magic Oil removes makeup, cleanses skin, moisturizes, and doubles as a makeup primer!
The oils in Signature Clear products are ranked very low on the comedogenic scales, which prevents them from causing breakouts. The oils bring balance and nourishment to oily skin. Signature Clear is made from natural ingredients such as hemp, manuka, and black currant oils. There are never any fragrances, fillers, or preservatives.
Signature Clear is a nourishing and natural approach to cystic acne. Even with life’s stressful moments, I like having a natural solution that not only heals my cystic acne, but it hydrates and improves my skin’s texture.

About the product:
Great skin after a stressful week can sometimes be a case of irony. Need a pick me up before the big date or having a stressful week that has wreaked havoc on your skin. Whether it is only a spot or more, Apothederm’s Acne Clarifying Treatment is formulated to help clean up sebum and minimize pore size. It’s gentle, yet effective, meaning it won’t irritate skin. Sometimes life brings a breakout and what you need is a problem solver.
When winter rolls around, my lips, skin, and even my hair takes a beating. My lips get so dry and chapped. Even the skin around my lips feels itchy and dry. This winter, my face has dry patches that I have never experienced before. With winter here, it’s time to focus on skin in dry weather.
The dry patches on my face were pretty uncomfortable. I’ve never had such dry, itchy, and tight skin before. It felt like sandpaper just trying to cleanse and apply moisturizer. That’s why I was so thankful to try facial oils!
I chose 3 different facial oils from Juno & Co., including Cold-Pressed Grapeseed Oil, Organic Cold-Pressed Rosehip Oil, and Cold-Pressed Jojoba Oil. Protect your skin with natural facial oils.
I chose 3 different natural facial oils for my son and I to use. At first, I was using the Cold-Pressed Grapeseed Oil to help repair his skin as he is suffering from acne.
I was using Organic Cold-Pressed Rosehip Oil, and Cold-Pressed Jojoba Oil to help keep my face moisturized and help with the dry patches on my skin.
The 3 facial oils are interchangeable with us. I am now using the Cold-Pressed Jojoba Oil on my son’s skin and Cold-Pressed Grapeseed Oil and Organic Cold-Pressed Rosehip Oil on my own skin.
I think the grapeseed oil is helping to repair my dry skin. My skin is feeling better with each use! The jojoba oil helps to keep my son’s skin moisturized, even while using acne medication!
It seems we use lip balm all year long. It’s especially important in the winter time. Our lips get so dry and cracked! I also like to wear lip gloss when I want a little color on my lips. I was sent lip balm and lip gloss from noyah.
I love our regular lip balm, but I am looking for a clean lip balm for us to switch to. I am so excited to try the lip balms from noyah.
I was sent the 4 Flavor Combo Pack, which includes Unscented, Vanilla, Cherry, and Spearmint. All are organic! We use lip balm throughout the day, and these keep our lips soft and moisturized. The price is a little bit higher than what we pay with our regular lip balm, however, with noyah lip balm being organic and natural is worth the cost.
I was also sent lip gloss in Summertime Peach. I love the “live try-on” feature. I uploaded a photo and it shows me what the noyah lip gloss would look like on me. This helped me choose a few favorite colors!
When it comes to deodorant, it’s important for me to choose natural deodorant for both my son and myself. While natural deodorant doesn’t prevent sweat, it does help keep the stink away! Yes, I sweat when I workout and walk outside! I love getting exercise. The sweat is embarrassing, but the stink is even worse!
I love using natural deodorant, so I am thankful I was sent two products from Hand Over Heart. I’ve been using their Pure Sage & Lime Deodorant for the last few weeks.
My son hasn’t had a chance to use the Pure Sage & Lime Deodorant yet, but I am excited for him to use it soon. I’ll add it to his rotation of natural deodorant.
I feel confident when I am using the Pure Sage & Lime Deodorant. Yes, sweating is natural but Pure Sage & Lime Deodorant helps keep the stink away.
I have been on a journey this year. I am working my way back to natural products. During COVID, I found myself using cleaning products that were not eco-friendly. I wanted to effectively disinfect and keep our home clean. The last two years have been pretty stressful with trying to stay healthy. This is a year for renewal for me. If you are looking to glow up your skin and hair, I am excited to share what I found!
My son is growing up so fast and is a teenager. For the last few years, he’s had bad acne. We’ve tried 3 prescriptions at once and it seemed to help a bit. Well, we just switched health insurance plans and have an appointment in a few weeks. I hope his new doctor can help us!
