Jillian Wright Skincare Review

October 13, 2014

For the past few months I’ve been using a product from Jillian Wright Skincare.  For a little background information, Jillian Wright has been a clinical aesthetician for over two decades.  The Jillian Wright Clinical Skin Spa is located near Madison Avenue in Manhattan.  The following information is taken from the website so you can get an idea of the philosophy of this skincare line:

We believe in sustainable development through green chemistry (Chiral) as well as formulating with environmentally, secure, organic and natural “of the earth ingredients. Doing so, allows us to create a comprehensive collection of products that help improve the overall health of your skin. Our philosophy and standard of practice allows us to provide the highest quality products with no fillers, toxic ingredients, or colorants.

The product that I tried is called the Breakout Blocker Acne Serum.  The product was sent to me for review.  I was immediately interested in this product for several reasons.  What stood out to me the most was that this product fights acne and is an anti-aging serum at the same time.  I believe that’s a hard combination to come by.  Most acne medicines that are on the market are made with young teens in mind.  This product is non medicated and non drying.

As a woman who can sometimes have problematic skin (including rosacea and breakouts), I like to find products that are made for my age group and that understand the needs of aging skin.  This product is paraben-free, fragrance free, and gluten-free.  It’s designed for many skin types including problematic, oily, normal and acne prone.  This serum has natural ingredients, which gives it a nice botanical type of scent.

BreakoutBlockerBox
The box is so cute too!  It’s made from recycled materials and has wildflower seeds in it so you can plant the box in some soil and start a garden.  Kinda fun, huh?!  All of the packaging is actually environmentally responsible.

So, what did I think of the product?  This product was a good one for my skin.  Thankfully I don’t have breakouts daily.  However I get some rosacea and acne breakouts from time to time.  During these times I’ve applied the Breakout Blocker Serum both morning and evening after washing my face.  The serum has a nice thin consistency that absorbs into the skin quickly.  I applied moisturizer, sunscreen and/or my foundation over the serum.  My makeup applied smoothly and evenly over the serum.  I would recommend this product if you’re looking for a natural product that is non drying.  In addition, it contains other skin enhancing ingredients that are supposed to brighten the skin.  That’s always a bonus to me when a product is multi-tasking.  I plan to try more products from this line in the future.  Take a look at the Jillian Wright Skincare website and see if they carry something that might work for your skin.

*This product was sent to me at no cost for review purposes.  All opinions are my own and are not influenced by anyone else.

If you’re wondering where I’ve been the last few d If you’re wondering where I’ve been the last few days, I’m in Michigan for our annual family reunion. And I must say, the weather here has been in the 70’s during the day which makes me not miss the heat wave back at home in Texas one bit.

Running quick errands on a hot day calls for a loose fitting dress and comfortable sneakers.

Summer isn’t quite ready to leave, but I’m already Summer isn’t quite ready to leave, but I’m already reaching for rich fall colors. 🍂

#ad One of my favorite ways to transition into fall is by layering lightweight pieces from @soft_surroundings that keep me comfortable on warm afternoons but are also perfect for when the temperatures start to cool down. It’s an easy way to ease into the next season.

These warm, earthy colors feel so timeless, and each piece can be mixed and matched with other wardrobe favorites.

Do you have a favorite fashion season?

I love finding pieces that look polished, feel com I love finding pieces that look polished, feel comfortable, and don’t cost a fortune—and this affordable chambray midi dress checks every box.

It’s lightweight, flattering, easy to dress up or down, and perfect for everything from brunch to vacation to running errands. I truly think this is one of those wardrobe staples that works for women of all ages. Just switch up your shoes and accessories to make it your own!

And speaking of accessories, how fantastic are these jewelry pieces?! They’re from Noonday Collection, a fair-trade lifestyle brand that partners with artisans in vulnerable communities to create handcrafted jewelry and accessories. By providing these makers with dignified work, the company aims to alleviate global poverty and empower women.♥️

The beautiful bag is borrowed from Vivrelle. I have a discount code if you want it. And the shoes are possibly the comfiest ones I own.

I started with an eyeshadow palette that has a variety of textures and shades in the rose family to create a million different looks. And yes, you can wear shimmers and whatever else makes you feel confident even if you’re a more mature woman.😎

You can’t go wrong any of the makeup brushes from BK Beauty to apply and blend your makeup. This eyeshadow brush is one of many that I love.

The foundation stick is new for me and I’m wondering where it’s been my whole life! It’s that good. Just swipe, blend and go. Available in so many shades that there’s one for everyone!🙌🏻

Adding depth and glow to the face couldn’t be easier with a multitasking palette of bronzer, highlighter and blush. It’s perfect for travel too.✨

The lip glow is fun because it’s a pH reactive one so it’s almost like having a custom shade that’s just for you.
I’m kinda giddy over here because I get to use thi I’m kinda giddy over here because I get to use this beautiful Louis Vuitton handbag for a month. I borrowed it from Vivrelle and their membership service. They have hundreds or maybe even thousands of luxury designer bags to choose from. 

Comment CODE for the link and my discount code that gets you 50% off your first two months.

It’s a great way to try beautiful bags without committing to a single bag. I’m having so much fun with this membership!👜

Thank you @vivrelle for the gift of this membership!
