Caolion Hot & Cool Pore Foam Cleansing Duo


I recently had an order from Sephora arrive. I am a teenager so although I do struggle with a bit of acne, my skin isn't the worst that it could be. Sephora recently featured a brand I had never heard of called Caolion. My Sephora order was based around the one product by Caolion called the Hot & Cool Pore Foam Cleansing Duo. Essentially, you put the cleanser on your face (or just your most troubled areas) and wait until it starts to get hot/cold. You then rub it in a bit more and wash it off with cold water if you are using the heating one or warm water for the cooling one. 

This product was incredible for me. My pores on my nose are terrible and now when I look in the mirror they are gone! Be prepared though for a few things. The heating portion does the most for you but it does smell like fish. The smell isn't sickening, but it's just not what I'm used to with all of my lovely smelling skincare products. Also you need to be prepared for how your face feels after you take off the heating cleanser. It only really starts to burn after you take it off and that is normal.

The cooling portion of this was so refreshing to use in the morning and it doesn't smell like much of anything. Although I don't notice too much of a difference when I use the cooling cleanser, it feels really nice on my skin. On the Sephora website this duo was only $24 which is a bit higher than drugstore but certainly not the same price as the $60+ skincare that can be found in Sephora. I would highly recommend this product if you have small breakouts across your face or very large pores.

Brooklyn Bridge

I'm a tourist. I was just in New York City and I am not ashamed to say that I participated in very touristy activities. You might assume I mean going to the Statue of Liberty or the Empire State Building but I did not do either of those things. Instead, I walked across the Brooklyn bridge. 
What made this so incredible is that it was snowing at the time. If you hate the cold obviously you need to brace yourself but it was a truly incredible experience and view!

Giveaway website review- Poshly.com

During early December I found myself dedicating hours of my time every single day answering consumer questions in exchange for entries to win the swag bag from the Victoria's Secret fashion show on Poshly.com. Although I often found myself questioning whether it was too good to be true, I continued entering because it was free so what did I have to lose? After entering 7,228 times I waited to find out the results. I recieved an email about 2 days after the deadline closed from poshly saying that I had won! 
I was in awe and so grateful! It finally came on Christmas Eve morning and contained the following:
•2 sweatshirt/ sweatpants sets
•Henry Bendel sunglasses
•Henry Bendel solar charger
•Bikini
•Pajama set
•Victoria's secret tote bag
•Victoria's secret sports bra
•Jewelry
•Rotating Beachwaver
•Bra and thong set
•Lotions and fragrances
•A free juice cleanse
•Victoria's secret fashion show tee


Believe it or not, there were a few more things. Because this particular prize was worth so much I did have to fill out a tax form but that was it. 

Poshly.com is completely legit and I would recommend it to anyone that is looking for some fun prizes! Check it out now!


Obviously this is not Poshly asking for this because my following is so small but I figured I should mention that because even I have been asked if I get paid to say things and I do not.

Paris

I can honestly say that Paris ruined me.

This city feels like a movie in ways you can only imagine by visiting there yourself. I went from Christmas Day 2014 to New Year's Day 2015. 
It was chilly of course but I would not trade that for anything. The experience of New Years on the champs elysees was an experience I will never forget.
My biggest tip for Paris is to learn how to use the metro right when you get there because it is super simple and will help you so much! The traffic is so ridiculous that the metro is quicker and cheaper than a cab ride. I would recommend getting on the metro and getting off at a random stop and exploring. I did that and ended up finding my favorite section of Paris that way.

Comment down below your favorite place that you have been and your top place you would want to go! Mine is Paris and I would love to go to Iceland.

Me

Hello!

I'm not at all qualified to do this, which is why I think it will be wicked fun! (First thing that I should mention is that I am from Massachusetts and say wicked very often.) I am a 15 year old girl who loves beauty and traveling. Much to my dismay, I live in the suburbs which is why I like traveling so much. I will be posting Tuesdays at 5:00 PM East Coast time. I'm very excited for this journey!
