BEAUTY OILS:
– Tarte Pure Maracuja Oil
This winter in Michigan has been so horrible and cold (20 degrees below zero temperatures), my skin has been suffering like never before. I wanted to add a face oil into my routine before I add my makeup (not just at night), but I was reluctant to try face oils because I have normal to oily skin to begin with. I read online that adding oil to your skin can actually fight oil with oil. Who knew? So I tried the beauty oils below and I am obsessed! I only add two drops of oil on my clean face and then I add my normal face cream on top before doing my makeup and the results are flawless.
Tarte Description:
What it is:
A 100 percent pure organic maracuja oil.
What it does:
This undiluted organic and moisturizing maracuja oil quickly absorbs for firmer, brighter, smoother skin. Pure maracuja oil is rich in vitamin C, so skin appears instantly brighter and more radiant. The oil is also a source of essential fatty acids (EFAs), a requirement for healthy skin cells that the body cannot produce on its own. EFA deficiency can result in the breakdown of essential skin cells which causes skin to appear dry and aged. By supplementing skin with pure maracuja oil, you are infusing life back into dull skin and replenishing EFAs to rapidly rebuild and repair. This potent anti-aging elixir that has anti-inflammatory benefits promotes active skin recovery and delivers maximum hydration without any greasy or filmy feel.

– Boscia MakeUp-BreakUp Cool Cleansing Oil
Just like the beauty oils, I was reluctant to try this product because of my normal to oily skin tone. I usually gently exfoliate my face everyday, but I received this in a gift set from Sephora as a Christmas gift so I decided to try it out. WOW! I was pleasantly surprised. This takes off ALL my makeup in a flash and leaves my skin feeling refreshed and clean without feeling stripped.

FACE PRIMERS:
– Benefit Cosmetics The POREfessional
I bought the mini POREfessional for $8 from Benefit’s website as I wasn’t sure if I really needed this product since I do not have large pores. All of my favorite beauty bloggers were raving about it so I had to at least try it and I adore it! This product really filled in my pores and fine lines giving me a flawless look after applying my makeup like no other primers have. Unfortunately, I still have to use another face primer with this because it doesn’t help keep my face matte throughout the day. I add this product to my cheeks and any problem areas and my other primer (below) lightly to all other areas of my face and the results are stunning.
Benefit Description:
What it is:
A professional balm that minimizes the appearance of pores.

SELF TANNER
– Million Dollar Tan Cabana Tan EXTREME Face & Body Lotion
I am a self tanning addict! I love self tanners and I like to try them all. Usually I like liquids and mousses, but I wanted to try something less messy and colorless so I came across Million Dollar Tan Cabana Tan EXTREME lotion and it quickly became my new favorite. I use the face lotion everyday and it never irritates my skin. This self tanner gives the most natural color without ever looking orange and it is a clear/white color so it will not ruin your sheets or clothing. I love the results I get from this tanner and recommend it to everyone — even beginners.
Million Dollar Tan Description:
Cabana Tan Extreme is the same great color combination as our original Cabana Tan but in Extreme form. It still goes on clear for ease of use, but packs a punch when it comes to color. Your color will develop over the next few hours and will last at least a week. Make sure you wait 6-8 hours before you shower and keep your skin well moisturized.
Recommended for those with a naturally darker skin tone or those that like to be ultra tan. Our regular Cabana Tan formulation can also be used as a gradual sunless tanner but Cabana Tan Extreme is too dark to be used this way.
Cabana Tan Extreme Face is your newest essential beauty product. It’s Million Dollar Tan‘s famous bronzed tan color with an extra boost in a lotion that’s made just for the face. It provides a natural glow that evens out skin tone and makes your skin radiate. This incredibly versatile lotion works on all skin types and colors. Cabana Tan Extreme Face is just like our original formula, but with a higher percentage of DHA for an even deeper bronzed color. We’ve also incorporated the latest in anti-aging technology to keep your skin firmer and younger looking.
