I'm not going to bother beating around the bush: this Mustela Cicastela Moisture Recovery Cream is 40mL/1.35fl. oz. of unscented wonder in a squeeze tube. I wasn't too keen on their Hydra Bebe Body Lotion because it was so strongly scented, but this Cicastela Cream is hoard-worthy. Let me explain.

Boots No7 Radiant Results Nourishing Melting Gel Cleanser
Started using this 150mL/5fl. oz. tube of Boots No7 Radiant Results Nourishing Melting Gel Cleanser a couple of months ago after finishing Caudalie Make-up Removing Cleansing Oil. Unfortunately, I hate it and I'll tell you why.
This is a gel-to-oil cleanser that's to be massaged onto dry skin, whereupon it'll melt into an oil that will emulsify and then rinse off with water. At least that was how it was supposed to work. Unfortunately, it doesn't quite work the way it was intended.

Tarte Quench Lip Rescue Part II
Last fall, I got to try mini versions of these Tarte Quench Lip Rescue and loved them, so I picked up several full sizes when Tarte ran a promotion. There are 8 "colors" available and I have 5: Clear, Berry, Cherry, Coral, and a LE Pink Sands.
