I am so excited to colab every week with two great fellow bloggers! I noticed that I already follow both of their blogs, and wanted to join in on the fun of tester Tuesdays! They were willing to let me join, yeah. I am so excited about this fun colab. Every week all 3 of us bloggers on Tuesdays will be blogging about samples, or full size products that we are trying out that week. We will give a full review of that product, and support each other as well. I have so many samples, and was already collecting, and planning on doing a “sample empty” blog review, and video, so this was perfect! I am going to be focusing on samples mostly, with a couple full size products mixed in as well. I think I will just be picking 2 or 3 every week, so that I can keep it basic, and simple.
I will be posting every Tuesday at 4:30 pm, along with the other 2 ladies. I realize I am late this week, I am still trying to figure out how to post a scheduled blog post, as it was my first attempt today, and it failed unfortunately, luckily it was still saved in my drafts, and I am just updating it now! So let’s talk about my first tester Tuesday products for this week. I choose the acure sensitive facial cleanser, and the benefit it’s potent eye cream. I thought these were perfect for my first week, as I was already using, and loving them! I hope you will check out the other ladies blog posts as well, and check out what they are testing this week, and their reviews. Please see the links down below, if you have any requests for me to review, I would be more than happy to try to accommodate them as well in the future, for now though, I have tons of sample products to get through! Thank you for supporting us in this new colab series, tester Tuesday!
*Acure* sensitive facial cleanser-
My thoughts: I absolutely love the brand acure. I have been using the brand pretty exclusively for the past 2 years, and it really works well with my skin. The scent is mild, and smells like argan oil. It has a creamy, delicate texture that doesn’t contain any amount of rough scrubbing beads, or anything. It is perfect for my oily, sensitive skin. I want to mention that I have combination skin, and have for the past 2 years, as I am on retin-a for my acne scars. This facial cleanser doesn’t irritate my skin at all, even using it twice a day. I love that it has natural ingredients, and is better for the planet. This is becoming one of my favorite face washes, and have already purchased the full size, as I love it that much! *Benefit* It’s potent-
What it does: Your eyes can’t keep a secret—they’re the first to show signs of age and stress. It’s Potent! Eye Cream fades dark circles and helps smooth the appearance of fine lines for brighter, younger-looking eyes. It contains a peptide complex known to help restore elasticity and firmness, along with a blend of hydrating botanical extracts and loquat extract, known to help protect the skin from free radical damage.
My thoughts: Benefit has always been one of my favorite brands for makeup. Simply because, they have amazing products, and the cutest packaging ever! I never have thought to try their skincare line though, it is a bit pricey, and haven’t heard much about it to be honest. I have heard a little about the it’s potent eye cream though, so I really wanted to try it! I received this sample jar in one of my birchboxes, and it was the perfect amount to try because you only need a little per use. This eye cream has a light, creamy, moist texture, and was perfect for my dry skin around my eyes. It absorbed right away, and made my eyes feel brighter, as well as tighten the fine lines, and wrinkles. I love this eye cream, and most likely will be buying the full size as well. Eye cream lasts me months so it’s worth the money to me to find a great one that works, even if it is expensive.

I’ve just always been a grammar, spelling & formatting “nazi”. I took creative writing & composition classes in high school & college. Was also on the student newspaper at both, so it was drilled into my head for several years. 😉😁

It’s all good. I’ve just learned shorter paragraphs make for easier reading. A paragraph should be no more than 4 or 5 sentences at the most really.

Hey there! I love your blog but wanted to make one small suggestion. Could you possibly break up the super long paragraphs into separate smaller ones? It would make your post a lot easier for everyone to read. It’s easy to get lost and lose your place reading a big run-on paragraph. 😊
