L'Bel Paris Review - GIVEAWAY CLOSED

And the winner of the giveaway is...Rachel!! Yay! Congrats Rachel and thank you to everyone who entered.

This is a compensated review by BlogHer and L'Bel.

I recently was sent a few products from the skincare company L'Bel and I am a skincare junkie so was dying to try it out. I have always had skin issues, from a teenager to my early to mid twenties, I've had to deal with problem zits and random bumps on my face. It was one of those things that probably shouldn't bother me that much but it did, it bothered me a lot. I tried out a lot of different kinds of skincare at all different price points to take care of these issues. My skin has calmed down a bit and now my main concern is wrinkles and just general aging, although I do still have the occasional zit or two. L'Bel sent me a few anti-aging lotions, specifically this eye cream and this face lotion.

REGRESSION YEUX

Eye Contour Cream Against the First Signs of Age ff (am-pm) .52 oz.

REGRESSION JOUR
Protective Complex Against the First Signs of Age SPF 15 ff Normal to combination Skin (am) Lotion 3.8 oz.

I've only used both products for about a week, the eye cream at night and the face lotion for the day but I've noticed a difference in the softness of my skin. I've used many eye creams before and this one is really nice as it's nice and creamy and goes well onto the sensitive skin around the eye and is not irritating at all.

The other product that I absolutely adore is the Essential Moisturizing Lotion Toner. I don't typically use a toner as the ones I've used before can be kind of harsh on my skin but this one is so gentle. I think I do a pretty good job of cleaning my make up off as I use an eye makeup remover as well as my Clarisonic but after using this toner I could still see a bit of makeup left on the cotton pad and my skin just feels really clean.

Skincare and makeup is one of those things that just makes me feel so happy. I can spend hours in my bathroom playing my lotions, blushes, eyeshadows, etc... On an everyday basis I make sure to take care of my skin so that it not only looks good now but when I'm older as well. Make up wise, I'm not "just your basics" kind of girl. I do everything from change up my eye shadow color daily to wearing brightly colored eyeliner and red lipstick (maybe not necessarily at the same time. lol!) but one thing that I always add to my makeup routine for any special events is add a pair of false eyelashes! That one thing can brighten up my whole look, especially since I have small eyes but when I wear them, my eyes look a lot bigger. It's kind of funny what these little fake lashes can do but I guess that's a reason why celebs wear them on the red carpet too!
