Hieeeee friends!!! I want to share one of my new f

Hieeeee friends!!! I want to share one of my new faves with you! I received the @biossance Squalane + Vitamin C Dark Spot Serum free from @influenster in exchange for a review on @sephora & @biossance . I loved it so much I wanted to make sure I wrote a post on it too! Head on over to my blog: thekatd.com for my full review of the product & read on for the benefits of using skincare with Squalane & Vitamin C!

So far, I’ve been using the serum nightly for about 2.5 weeks and I love it! I use two squirts of it after washing my face. I let it sit for about 3-10 min before applying my @rosesnroseco liquid filler (use code Kat for 15% off) and @seintofficial Milk night cream (makeup.thekatd.com), or @rosesnroseco Glow Effect cream.

Some benefits of Squalane are:
- Moisture: The primary use and benefit of Squalane is for moisturizing because it can boost hydration. - Acne: It is lightweight and noncomedogenic - Anti-Aging: It has antioxidants that help fight free radicals, which slows down the aging process.  - Collagen: Regular use can increase collagen production for more firm skin. - Anti-Inflammatory & Natural Antibacterial Properties: Can reduce redness & swelling, and speed up skin healing.

Some benefits of Vitamin C are:
- Anti-Aging: increased cell turnover to reduce wrinkles - Antioxidant: protects against UV light, pollution, & free radicals that promote oxidative stress & aging. - Hydration: decreases skin’s water loss. - Skin brightening: reduces hyperpigmentation & brightens dull complexion. - Under eye circle reduction: evens out skin tone by impeding melanin overproduction while also hydrating and plumping the area. - Collagen: protects & increases production for firmer skin.

Manicures these days happen at my vanity using Color Street polishes. I layered Charleston Blush under Home Sleet Home. These stick on polishes make manicures so easy and are so pretty! Mine are going strong this whole week! Have you tried color street yet? If not, ask my friend @manisbycarla18 for a hook up! 🥳

I’ve been more MIA on this platform than on it lately. This is probably largely to do with how many life changes I’ve been experiencing. I’m sure others have similar accounts of 2020 because hello, it sucked. I love this quote though because so many times when I think it’s time to quit, I have to remind myself that it’s just a hump I need to get over and things will be better. Life is good and positivity begets positivity. So here we go. We’re starting 2021 with positive thoughts & action!!! Do you choose a word for your year as a theme goal? If so, what’s yours? I haven’t chosen mine yet, but I’ve been thinking about it a lot. 🧐 I’ll share mine soon. In the meantime, I hope if you’re on the verge of quitting on something, you remember, you’re likely closer to your goal than you imagine, so just keep going! You can do great things!!!
