Clean & Clear Scrub Soft Purifying Cleanser Review !

Hey everyone!

I hope you all had an amazing Valentine's Day!

Here's a review of this cleanser that I finished a while back, enjoy!!!

Product: Clean & Clear Scrub Soft Purifying Cleanser

Price: $5-$7

Pros: Very gentle, soft scrubs, doesn't dry your skin out.

Cons: Doesn't help with acne.

Uses: Twice daily

Benefits: Gently exfoliates your skin leaving behind a soft clean skin.

Experience: This product lasted me about 3-4 months. I used this product on and off because when I was using this product I was breaking out a lot and it didn't contribute to improving it. After using this product my face usually feels extremely soft and brighten but it doesn't really have any long term effects on my skin.

Recommended/Repurchase: I would recommend this product for people who aren't acne prone because when my acne resided it I felt this product worked best. Overall, I would repurchase this product if my skin was not as inflamed.

I hope this is helpful for you guys!

More reviews on their way =)

Have a great day!

Gasbuddy.com Review

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to share with you guys this amazing website that I've been using for over a year and realized that not many people are aware of this site which is such a shame!

Gasbuddy.com is a website that allows you to check your local gas prices simply by entering your zip code. It even provides you with the prices of Regular Gas, Midgrade, Premium and even Diesel Fuel in your area. Which may not be very helpful if you are very familiar with your area, BUT it is definitely useful when you go to a different city, your friends house, or even another state!

The website even gives you some tips on how you can save gas!

Another great thing about this website is that it's updated very frequently so the prices are pretty accurate. Once you put in your zip code it'll even tell you how long ago it was updated.



If anything you should totally check out the website it'll only take a couple of seconds! Plus, it's extremely easy to use!


Alright, I know I know the prices may not vary that much but heck if you can save a couple of cents just by driving a block away why the hell not! Especially, if it's on the way to where you are going. I will suggest not to drive out of the way to save a couple of cents though because by the time you get there and go back it really does defeat the whole purpose of it.

I hope you enjoy the website as much as I do, have fun saving money! Little by little. It all adds up in the end =)

Mario Badescu Hyaluronic Eye Cream Review

Hello everyone!

I know I've been MIA for a little under a month but that's cause I've been studying my butt off for my certification, which by the way didn't go too well but it's all gravy. I actually really did learn a lot while I was studying so it didn't all go down the drain. Hahaha

On another note, I have a couple of other blog posts in mind that I'll be posting up very shortly =) I've got a lot of catching up to do.

Well, here you go I've just finished using the Mario Badescu Hyaluronic Eye Cream very recently and wanted to share my experience with everyone =).

Price: $18.00 for 0.5oz

Pros: Very moistruirzing.

Cons: A bit pricey. Doesn't really absorb very well when I pat it under my eyes.

Uses: Twice a day.

Benefits: Helps lock in your skins own natural moisture to keep it night and plump. Suitable for all skin types.

Experience: The eye cream lasted me about 3-4 months? Which is pretty good. When I first started using it I had mixed feelings about it. I did feel that it definitely helped plump up my under eyes because I put some one my eye lid (I have no idea why I did that ... you're not suppose to put it on your actual eye lids ... lols) and it definitely did see some plumping action going on there. Hahaha However, I didn't like how it didn't really absorb into my skin that well it kind of sat on top of my skin for a bit. Over time though I didn't see the product working as effectively as it did when I first started.

Recommended/Repurchase: I will probably not recommend or repurchase this product because overall it was an okay product. It didn't give me any irritations but it also didn't really do much for me other than moisturize my eyes.


I hope that this review was helpful =) any additional questions please feel free to ask away!


Have a great day!
