Swissvita Dark Spot Corrector with AC-11 - Anti Spot Serum - Dark Spot, Age Spot and Acne Spot Remover

                                       

What it is :

This is a Dark Spot, Age Spot and Acne Spot Remover for a Flawless and Brilliant Skin -  it contains 0.5 o.z./ 15g. Where to find it :Amazon Swissvita Dark Spot Corrector

What it claims:

  Swissvita Dark Spot Corrector with AC-11® is in serum form, it is absorbed by the skin much faster. It is concentrated, water-based, lightweight  its meant to give you brighter skin. 
It has an effective ingredient, AC-11® which helps with age spots and uneven skin tone.  AC-11® is derived from a natural herb from the Amazon rainforest that helps you achieve soft, supple, and youthful-looking skin day after day.
It is paraben-free and doesn't cause any irritation, so it should be perfect for people with sensitive skin. It's also alcohol-free and shouldn't leave your skin dry after use.

What it did for me:

There is something in this that my skin doesn't agree with. It made me really uncontrollably itchy; the only reason I noticed it was this specific product is because I stopped using it (since it was the new addition to my routine) and my skin improved in two days. The reason this is getting 4 stars instead of 2 or 3 is because it actually is helping my mother with her dark spots. Unfortunately, my skin didn't like it. Thats why I think skin care is important to try because you never know what might or might not work for your skin.

I use their other products like the Swissvita cleanser, eye cream and another all over face serum without a problem. I actually REALLY LOVE THE BRAND. This was the only product my skin didn't agree with. I received my #Swissvita dark spot corrector to review in exchange for my honest opinion.

New York Biology | Tea Tree Essential Oil

What it is :
 I am a huge supporter  of essential oils in general. They have lots of uses and are a household staple. If I had to choose only one essential oil to keep in the house, my choice would be tea tree oil because it has antibacterial properties, medicinal properties, and it is extremely useful in cleaning.This particular essential oil comes from the evergreen leaves of the Australian Melaleuca Alternifolia tree. It has been known for it's healing and disinfecting properties and there is a lot  of scientific evidence to support its effectiveness.


This particular essential oil has 45% Terpinen-4-ol. From Wikipedia:  "Terpinen-4-ol is used in multiple skin related diseases including blepharitis, rosacea, Demodex, meibomian gland dysfunction, chalazion and dry eye. It’s also used in lid margin diseases. 4-Terpineol has miticidal, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antifungal effect." For at least 100 years, Aborigines have used the Australian native Melaleuca plant to treat wounds and cutaneous infections."

What I use it for:
I generally use it as a "face  treatment" when my face feels congested, before doing a peel I apply some of this at night to kill off the bad bacteria on my face also to calm any inflammation. I also like to keep it in my medicine drawer in case of an injury or cut I can use this to disinfect and naturally heal the wound. Tea tree oil has many uses, I know people who use it for face wash, shampoos, massage oils, skin and nail creams and laundry detergents. I received this item in exchange for my honest review, opinions are 100% my own.

Where to find it : NYB Tea Tree Oil

Brand Review | InstaNatural



What it is :
 InstaNatural's Micellar Water is the perfect solution for those looking for a gentle and natural cleanser. 
What it did for me: 
I don't think is meant to replace your cleanser, it's more to help remove any impurities of the skin so that you can then do your whole regime. It's meant to help remove your makeup. It does cleanse and hydrate my skin also. I didn't think it has an over powering scent and it would work well with sensitive skin.


What it is:
InstaNatural's Glycolic Acid Peel is the best way to exfoliate the deeper layers of the skin, helping to soften, smooth and clear your complexion.

What it did for me:
 I absolutely love how NOT TIME CONSUMING this product is quick and I only used it 1-2 a week for a minute. AMAZING! My skin has improved, I would recommend this 100%

ISA Professional Digital Titanium Flat Iron Hair Straightener


What it is:

It's a MIRROR Titanium hair straightener with 
Neon background LCD display that heats up 265 to 450 Fahrenheit (130 to 230 Celsius.) It retails for $129.00 

What they claim:
It will make your hair silky smooth because of the revolutionary MIRROR Titanium plates in this flat iron. Digital temperature control makes sure the temperature is set precisely for YOUR hair.


What it did for me:
It leaves my hair silky smooth and no frizzy or kinks in the hair. Other straighteners also gave me a burned smell when straightening my hair, but not this one. It's feels great to handle because it's so sleek and thin, it also allows you to get close to the root of the hair. This is perfect if you have curly hair because you can get really close to the scalp without burring yourself. I  love that it has a display that tells you if it's on/off, as well as , what the temperature is. It also has a power button, and a + and - sign, to bring the temperature up or down. The black titanium plates glide over the hair super smoothly without  snagging the hair; it literally cut my styling time in half and that my friends is worth the price because I'm always an on the go mom! I hope you consider this one if you're on the hunt for an iron! Even though I received it heavily discounted in exchange for my honest review , I really want to say this is a good quality iron!

Review | Swissvita Anti Aging Serum

What it is :

It's an anti-aging serum that gets rid of sagging, dull and ugly skin because of powerful ingredients in the serum (AC-11, B12, and progelene.)
Where to find:Swissvita Anti aging Serum


What it claims:

  • AC-11®, it also contains Vitamin B12 improves moisture retention of the skin, keeping it moisturized and hydrated. 
  • PROGELENE is filled with actives and peptides which promote structural remodeling of the skin. It clinically reduces the signs of aging by improving skin's firmness and elasticity.
  • It's gentle enough for all skin types.

This anti aging serum is perfect for:
    • Diminishing fine lines
    • Firming and lifting skin
    • Reducing dark spots
    • Preventing wrinkles
    • Improving overall skin texture

What it did for me :

I received this item for free/discount to give an unbiased and honest review. I was not paid or compensated to review the product. My review is based upon my experience while using this product. It did help my skin feel and look more hydrated. I don't think it really did much to fix my texture, I believe I need more time or something that is stronger to help with scars, as well as, with small bumps on my skin.  However, it did help with the discoloration on my skin and make my skin look a little less red.I've used it for about a month and I do like this serum , as well as the fact that it dries on the skin quickly. I have acne prone skin even as an adult but I'm not oily, so I think this worked very nice on my skin and it didn't feel heavy at all. I do like that is helped even out my skin tone significantly. I would recommend this because it didn't break me out , it seems to be great for all skin types.

Review | New York Biology Anti Cellulite Massage Oil


What it is: 

It's a blend of oils that applied correctly will help with the appearance of cellulite on parts of the body.
 Where to find it: Anti Cellulite Oil
I received this Item at a discounted price in exchange for my review BUT all views are 100% my own! 

 What it claims: 
ANTI CELLULITE OIL helps break down fat cells in those problem areas such as hips, thighs, buttocks and abdomen. Unlike cellulite cream it absorbs into the skin immediately and attacks those unwanted fat tissues.
*It is NOT tested on animals and it's made in the USA!

What it did for me:
       I want to start off with that I didn't know what to expect. I know that nothing really removes marks, but I know some products  can definitely help reduce the appearance of them. I went in not expecting much results from this product.  
    I couldn't share pictures of my skin on the areas where I used the oil because it didn't take away the cellulite after a month but it has helped me in other ways . It is really oily, so when you squirt it on your hands you can see the greenish tinge (grape seed oil) beware when dispensing the product, because it shoots out fast. So the base is grape seed oil, but it also has eucalyptus, lemon and grapefruit oils. I used it for about a month and I will say it has helped the hydration of my skin so it looks more supple, but I didn't feel a tingle or like it toned my body. I'm also a thicker girl trying to loose weight so maybe if you don't have so much "meat" it might work better on you ;P  

I will continue to use, maybe in my update I will include pictures next month. 

Much love,

Bellanca xo
