clarisonic deep pore detoxifying solution (and a giveaway!)

Monday, July 29, 2013

By now you know I love Clarisonic so whenever there’s a new solution from the brand, I feel like it’s my DUTY to let you guys know!

Clarisonic-Deep-Pore-Detoxifying-Solution  (2)
The new Clarisonic Deep Pore Detoxifying Solution ($169) combines Clarisonic’s first-ever two-step solution with its patented Deep Pore Brush Head and sonic technology to optimize the cleansing experience when it comes to pores.

This collection includes the Clarisonic Mia 2 Sonic Skin Cleansing Brush with the Deep Pore Brush Head, Deep Pore Daily Cleanser and Detoxifying Clay Mask. While I normally use my regular cleansers and masks with my Mia, I threw caution to the wind when I read that this set reduces pore appearance by 25% after just one use, and after 93% of users saw increased skin clarity after THREE days.

The Mia 2 features two speeds, a one-minute pulsing timer to let you know how long you should be using the system for, and a protective travel case making traveling with the system a breeze (I use the case to store it when it’s not in use). I’ve been using the Acne Clarifying brush head religiously because I am acne prone but I did notice that the cleanser that came with it dried out my face and I was more concerned about oily skin during the summer versus acne. I don’t have severe acne and the system is good for handling a breakout here and there.

The Deep Pore Cleansing brush head is firmer than the Acne Clarifying (which is meant for sensitive skin) but I’m convinced it’s the one for me since it’s ideal for cleansing oily skin - something I’ve lamented about on this blog before. Gentle enough for daily use, I felt like my skin was really clean after one use (removed A LOT of makeup that I tend to wear during the week). While it took about seven days for me to see best results, I definitely recommend using the Deep Pore Detoxifying Clay Mask one to two times a week for best results. It doesn’t leave my face feeling tight, itchy, or dry and is one of the few masks I’ve been using weekly. I did notice that I broke out on my chin after using this which was a bit odd as I never break out after using a Clarisonic but it was gone after two days so no harm, no foul. Overall, I’ve come to be addicted (as usual) with this and have swapped this as part of my everyday routine. I use it morning and night since my skin isn’t sensitive and it does not irritate me at all.

Julep Maven + Giveaway!

Wednesday, November 7, 2012

Sometimes, it’s the little things that go a long way. Case in point: last week was über stressful with Sandy, losing power, and trying to make sure I was still able to work from home. In order to have a brief moment of sanity, I took one hour out of my day to completely disconnect and focus on absolutely nothing - no worrying was allowed, no texting, just me time. Naturally, I went to my beauty stash and pulled out nail polish since it’s the one time I can be relaxed and do something enjoyable.

The polishes are from Julep’s Maven program where I had chosen the IT Girl intro box. Julep products are pretty neat in that they’re 4-free, high quality, and have great color options. The Maven program is a subscription service that sends members new nail polishes (and other beauty freebies like foot cream, designs, etc.) every month for $19.99.

The polishes have pretty good consistency (I noticed that the red seems to be thinner than the green) but it isn’t horrible. Two coats and you’re good which was awesome.

For the giveaway, one (1) lucky gal will receive a free Intro Box (subject to US and Canadian residents only). To enter, tell me which intro box you would like from the options below (bonus points by entering via the rafflecopter widget below!). Contest ends next Wednesday, 11/14/12.

  • It Girl
  • American Beauty
  • Boho Glam
  • Bombshell
  • Classic with a Twist

Happy 5th Birthday, MissWYA!

Tuesday, July 10, 2012

Sunday was this blog’s fifth birthday. FIVE YEARS! It’s hard to believe that I’ve been committed to something this long. While I can get truly sappy about all of the opportunities this site has afforded me, I’d rather keep it brief and say, Thank You.

Thanks to you (readers and sometimes commenters) I’ve been able to talk about lipstick, fashion week, and hair without judgement. To show my appreciation, I’m giving two lucky MissWYA readers the chance to win one of my favorite hair care lines introduced to me earlier this year - Motions’ Naturally Youcollection. This isn’t just for a shampoo or conditioner — this is the FULL THANG BABY!

You’ve heard me wax poetic of the masque and trust me when I say the full collection detangles, moisturizes and caresses your strands - no matter if you’re natural or relaxed. Formulated with ingredients like shea butter, avocado oil and coconut oil your hair is left hydrated and healthy. Everyone’s hair could use a bit of TLC and I want to set you on the right path :)

To enter: simply leave a comment below or shoot me an email at [email protected]. The contest ends at 11:59pm ET on Friday 7/13. Please, only one entry per person; duplicate entries will not increase your chances of winning. Contest is open to U.S. readers only.

Good luck!
Disclosure: contest is sponsored. Please don’t forget that you can still help the people of Haiti, donate to the Red Cross today. Thank you.
