The Importance of Moisturizing!


Hi everyone! 
Sorry I have been MIA for the past couple of days. The reason why is because I got my wisdom teeth out and I have been busy with school as well. So I apologize, but I will get back to blogging every other day. Since I for disappeared for a couple of days, I decided to do a blog post on moisturizer. My friends ask me a lot about my skin care routine and why moisturizer is so important. So this is for them!

What is the point of moisturizer? 
The point of moisturizers is to re apply the moisture that was taken out of your skin after you washed your face. There are a couple of different kinds of moisturizers; a light moisturizer, a deep moisturizer, and a regular moisturizer. It really depends on your skin type whether you have dry, oily, or combo skin.  Moisturizer is the last step in your skin care routine. You should moisturize morning and night. 

Why do we need to moisturize? 
The reason we have to moisturize is to just re apply the moisture that is lost after you wash your face or when your skin feels dry.  I know I repeated this in the beginning but it is that important. People do not understand the point of slathering some cream on your face. It just helps your skin look it's best. 

What moisturizer do I suggest? 
I have two moisturizers that I love. One is the Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion.
This is probably my favorite moisturizer. The reason why is because it lasts forever because of the big container. Also, this moisturizer is so soothing and light weight that it doesn't even seem like you put moisturizer on your face. This moisturizer is the more expensive one but if you have problems with finding a good moisturizer, definitely try this one. The only thing that I do not like about this moisturizer is that it smells kind of funny. I do not really know how to describe the scent, but the moment you put the moisturizer on your face, the scent goes away. 

My next favorite one is the Aveeno Positively Radiance Daily Moisturizer
This one moisturizer is more affordable for anyone who does not want to spend a lot of money on a moisturizer. I really like this moisturizer because it is light weight but you can feel that it is putting moisture back into your skin. ( Can you tell that I really like light weight moisturizers?) Also, this is really important that this moisturizer has SPF. Most moisturizer do not but this one does so you do not have to add an extra step to your skin care routine. Putting on SPF is really important and this moisturizer is a 2-in-1. 

I know this is a simple blog post but I feel like everyone needs to know why we need moisturizer instead of just being told that it is good for your skin. I hope you all enjoyed today's blog post. Sorry I have been MIA but I am back! :)
Carpe Diem,
Sophia

Battle of the BB Creams!

Hello everyone! Now as you all can tell, I love the Battle of the series. The reason why is because I can review a bunch of products for you all in one blog post.

June Ipsy Bag 2015!

Hey everyone! I really need a better way to say hi to you all. If you have any suggestions, let me know! Today I am doing my June Ipsy bag! I am super pumped because whenever I get my Ipsy bags/ pouches I get to try different brands that I might not have ever heard about. I never look at a preview of what I am going to get because I always want it to be a surprise. So let's get started. Not going to lie, when I first got my Ipsy bag, I was a little disappointed. The reason why is because on the Ipsy Instagram page, they had so many products that I wanted to try like the Formula X nail polish and  the It Cosmetics brow pencil. But when I first looked at the products that I received, I was disappointed. The bag/pouch: This pouch is super simple but I really like it. This is the perfect pouch to keep all your make up in and throw it in your purse. I like how it is flimsy feeling but durable. Some of the Ipsy pouches are very sturdy and structured and I am not really a...
