Anti-environmental toxins Charcoal mask

Isn't weather pretty sucky lately? stuffy and wet air often leaves skin feeling sticky and oily.

I am recently in love with this cleaning mask:

Clear Improvement® Active charcoal mask to clear



The marketing line is "BE FREE AND BE CLEAR" I must agree that it delivers what it promises.
It contains Activated Charcoal, which is a natural filter that absorbs environmental toxins and soil from deep within the pores to give skin a deep-down cleaning.

It doesn't give you the typical mud mask of itchy or burning sensation, so it is very comfortable for the entire time of application.

Origins recommends users to use once  a week, but I have been using it twice a week during this weather. So, it's really up to you how often you want to use it.

QB reminder - make sure you close the pore by applying a cold moisturizing mask or hydrating mask to keep the moisture in your pores/ skin.

enjoy~~

The 101 blog posting - all about eyes

This is the 101 blog posting at Beauty and the Bee..

Thank you for staying with me through the past year or so and read 100 of my sharing.

On the 101 posting, I want to recommend a product: ALL ABOUT EYES.

How we look is ALL ABOUT EYES. Eyes can give away your age, your mood and how much effort you spent in taking care of yourself.

In the past, I recommended Jurlique's anti-aging eye cream. I still believe that is one of the best eye creams that I have ever used. However, recently, I got my hands on a sample size Clinique All About Eyes. It is amazing!

The first 2-3 days, I didn't really see the results right away. After first week, I noticed the skin around my eyes are tightened and my dark circle faded.  Then I got excited and started to use a little more than before, the result is obviously better in the 2nd week. I also massaged the cream in when I applied it, which probably helped the cream to get absorbed a little better too.

I highly recommended this product. I am definitely getting another bottle when my sample/ travel size one is out.

Enjoy my QBs..

Happy 101 postings at BATB!
