A Stellar Beauty Box

November 15, 2019

Affiliate Links

My November BoxyCharm beauty box has arrived. I’m having mixed feelings about this month’s subscription box. I love some items and dislike the others. I’m not complaining though because I know that the products that aren’t a fit for me can be easily re-homed to someone else who would appreciate them.

I think I’m going to start with what I love in this month’s box first…

  • Check out the amazing Boxycharm makeup brushes that were included in this box. These are branded brushes fro the Boxycharm company and they are so nice. They bristles are soft, yet the brushes are firm for applying face products such as foundation, cream or powder. MSRP $35
  • TULA Skincare has a fantastic reputation, therefore I’m thrilled to give the Star Power Nourishing and Brightening Cosmic Hydrogel masks a try. I love getting skincare, especially masks in my beauty boxes. MSRP $22 for the set of 2
  • The Kypris Antioxidant Dew & Glow Serum is another winner for me. I need all of the hydration that I can get for my dry skin. This one has encapsulated antioxidants and nurturing amino acids. Sounds heavenly to me! MSRP $90

Now for the products that are not really my cup of tea…

  • The Dominique Cosmetics Celestial Thunder Eye Shadow Palette is not something I would ever purchase. The colors are way too bright for me and I have enough of the neutral shades that are in it. I will just give this one away. MSRP $35
  • Dose of Colors Liquid Matte Lipstick in the shade Nude Mood. I’m not totally opposed to this liquid lipstick, it’s the color that I don’t care for. I’d always prefer a pink lipstick over any other shade and this nude just doesn’t work for my skin tone and I’m not comfortable in the shade. Again, I will probably pass this on to my daughter who looks great in this type of shade. MSRP $18

Overall, the box had more likes than dislikes for me, so that’s a positive. We all know that when we subscribe to these beauty boxes we’re not going to love every single product every single month. For the most part I do love the majority of items that I receive from the Boxycharm subscription boxes.

The cost is just $21 per month, so I feel like it’s well worth it’s price. Be sure to go to their website to see if this is something you’d like to sign up for. It really is one of my all time favorite subscription boxes and also makes a fantastic gift for beauty lovers.

Be sure to search my site to see some of the incredible boxes I’ve gotten in the past.

    The last two months were awful for me, but I actually adored this month’s Boxycharm. I can see, however, that if you don’t like bright colors, that palette is not for you. I got the Dose of Colors in red, which delighted me. I hope December is better for you.

      I hate when I hate my box! LOL! I’m glad your recent one was better! Last month I had a very spilled liquid product in my box. Boxycharm was so good about sending me a new product replacement. That’s actually happed to me twice. For December I have the BoxyLuxe version coming and those are always so awesome, so I can’t wait for that one. Stacie xo

AD / COMPLIMENTARY TREATMENT: I received this DENS AD / COMPLIMENTARY TREATMENT: I received this DENSITY RF treatment at no cost in exchange for sharing my honest experience and review.

At 61, I’m always exploring ways to care for my skin and maintain a healthy, youthful-looking glow without surgery. This treatment caught my attention so I’m taking you with me to my treatment appointment at @orangetwist.alliance in Ft Worth, Texas.

So, what exactly is DENSITY RF?

DENSITY is a newer FDA-cleared, non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) skin rejuvenation treatment from Korea that uses controlled heat energy to reach both superficial and deeper layers of the skin. It combines monopolar and bipolar radiofrequency energy to help stimulate your body’s natural collagen and elastin production, which play an important role in skin firmness and elasticity.

What can it help with?
• Improving the appearance of loose or sagging skin
• Supporting firmer-looking skin and a more defined jawline
• Smoothing the appearance of fine lines and skin texture
• Encouraging natural collagen remodeling over time

There are no needles and no downtime. The treatment was comfortable most of the time with a few spicy areas, especially on my sensitive neck. My skin was a little red after the treatment, but that resolved within 30 minutes on my face and an hour on my neck.

While some tightening may be noticeable earlier, results can continue to develop over the following weeks and months as the skin produces and remodels collagen. Results vary from
person to person, and this isn’t an overnight fix, but I’m so excited to see improvements in my skin going forward.

I’m sharing my experience because I know so many of us over 50 are interested in non-surgical facial rejuvenation, collagen-stimulating treatments, and ways to support healthier-looking, mature skin.

I’ll be keeping you updated on my experience and how my skin looks over time!💗

Would you try the DENSITY RF treatment?

Save this post if you’re researching collagen treatments for mature skin that don’t have any downtime.⬅️

#ad As a woman over 50, I’m paying more attention #ad As a woman over 50, I’m paying more attention to my wellness routine and the little things I can do to support my body as it continues to change.

I’ve added two supplements from @ritual to my daily routine:

Ritual Perimenopause Hormone Support — designed to support women navigating the changes that can come with perimenopause. They’re formulated for women over 40 who are seeking hormone balance.

Ritual Essential for Women Multivitamin — to help fill nutritional gaps in my diet, because even when we try to eat well, we may not get every nutrient we need.

I also appreciate Ritual’s focus on ingredient traceability and transparency. And the good news? You can find Ritual at @target, too! 

Taking care of ourselves doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes it’s the small, consistent habits that make us feel like we’re showing up for ourselves.

#ad My morning skincare routine has gotten a LOT s #ad My morning skincare routine has gotten a LOT simpler over the years. I’m not looking for 10 different steps. Instead, I want products that are easy to use and easily fit into my everyday routines and @CeraVe has me covered.

Here’s what I’m reaching for lately:

• CeraVe Brightening Vitamin C Cleanser
• CeraVe Super Boost Serum with 3 Essential Ceramides — definitely my favorite step!
• CeraVe Brightening Even Tone Lotion for face + sensitive areas
• CeraVe Skin Renewing Brightening Lotion SPF 30 in the am for sun protection

As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned that a skincare routine I’ll actually stick with is so much better than a complicated routine that ends up sitting on my bathroom counter collecting dust.

If you’re looking for a simple morning skincare routine for mature skin, skincare for women over 50, brightening skincare, or an easy daily skincare routine, this is a great place to start, and you can pick them all up at @target or on target.com.

Do you keep your morning skincare simple, or are you a 10-step kind of girl?🤔

Looking after ourselves doesn’t have to be complicated… sometimes it’s just a few little beauty rituals that make us feel our best.
 
Tonight’s nighttime beauty routine featured a few finds from QVC…
 
• Tweezerman Facial Razor & Replacement Blades for a little at-home facial grooming. I like these for removing the peach fuzz so my makeup goes on smoother. Beware, these are sharp!
 
• Beekman 1802 Milk Rx Better Aging Compress Mask (came as part of a trio) to calm and soothe my skin after I did some exfoliating with the razor.
 
• Philosophy Fragrance 3-in-1 Shower Gel & Lotion for a relaxing bubble bath and a little everyday luxury. The Pure Grace scent is clean and refreshing.
 
I love finding beauty and skincare favorites that make my self-care routine feel special, especially when I can find them at a great price and I always feel like I can count on QVC for that.
 
Have you checked out the beauty deals and sales on QVC.com or in the QVC app lately? There are so many fun finds worth browsing! You never know what little beauty treat you might discover and with the holidays coming up, they have great gift options too.
