L’Oréal Paris Pure-Clay Mask BzzCampaign

I was lucky to be chosen to get this BzzCampaign. I was sent three full sized Pure-Clay Masks from L'Oreal Paris. These are available at drugstores for as low as $10. You can use one or all three for a multimask to target specific areas of your face.

*The mineral clays in each of these masks were chosen for their specific skin benefits.
  • Kaolinite is a soft mineral which absorbs unwanted impurities to remove excess shine without stripping away natural oils
  • Montmorillonite comes from igneous rocks, is soft to the touch, swells when it comes into contact with water and is renowned for its purifying and rebalancing properties
  • Ghassoul is gathered from volcanic regions of Morroco where it’s been used by women in face masks and compresses for years
Benefits of multimasking:

*"It’s the eucalyptus, charcoal or red algae that provides each L’Oréal Paris Pure-Clay Masks with a unique benefit for your skin. This allows you to wear multiple masks at once to address the specific, and often wildly different, needs of areas like your chin, cheeks and t-zone."
  • Eucalyptus known for possessing purifying and soothing actions beneficial for women with oily skin
  • Charcoal acts like a magnet on the skin to draw out impurities
  • Red Algae nutritious in sugars that help to strengthen the skin. Extraordinarily fine natural volcanic particles act as a naturally effective exfoliant to gently remove dead skin cells

I really enjoy all three of these masks. I like to do a multimask as well as using just one all over the face. While doing this campaign I am battling strep throat. My face has been red and slightly irritated so I did use the L’Oréal Paris Pure-Clay Mask Detox & Brighten as an all over mask. It helped clear out my pores and brighten my skin after.

ipsy September 2016 Early Access

Here is my bag for September. I am actually pretty happy with the products I am getting. I'm looking forward to the DLS Cosmetics eyeshadow the most and also that Too Faced Lip Injection Extreme. I am thrilled to not be getting another eyeliner. I have gotten so many lately and I'm so happy to not see one in my bag this month. 

What are you getting in your bag?

ipsy August 2016


This month's theme is Sugar Highness. The bag was designed by Michelle Phan this month and there are two options. They both are stunning and very ethereal looking. I really love them.

Check out my Pinterest ipsy board here.

The products are down below.

This is very black and super easy to smudge. That's where the pros of this eyeliner end. It never fully sets or drys so it goes all over the place even after smudging it out. If you touch it or if  you're like me and have hooded eyes then it's going to go all over your eyelid and crease and just everywhere. I would not recommend this. It's too messy.


I hated this. It made my hair feel terrible. It made my hair feel coarse and unmanageable. It was hard to brush after using and I didn't notice any "silkening" happening at all. It also weighed my hair down, so this would be horrible if you have fine hair, which I don't, however it still weighed mine down. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this.


This is an okay bronzer. It's a very pretty color and blends easily on the skin. My issue is with their site. If you want to purchase this you can't. It is no where to be found on their website. I mean no where. It's a total mess. 


I was really hoping for the shade Dangerous Affair and sadly ended up with Spinning Teacups. I didn't want the purple because I have a full bottle of a shade very close to this one, however, this is a really beautiful color. The formula is great. Also, this is full size, which is amazing. This wore wonderfully on my nails. It didn't chip at all. It just faded lightly around the edges of my nail, which I really enjoyed.


I'd say I'm a fan of tarte cosmetics. So, I had my hopes up for this mascara. Well, I wasn't disappointed. This is great. It makes my lashes look full and fluttery. It doesn't smudge or flake on me. It really makes my lashes look great. I would recommend this for sure.


Check out July's bag here. The theme last month was Hot Summer Nights.
