Happy Saturday! I hope everyone had a fulfilling week and has a weekend full of fun activities ahead! I posted on my @christieglow Instagram (my new Instagram dedicated to inspiration, style, beauty, and skincare) about my favorite weekend products. Here's a closer look at each product and why I love them.
Rodan + Fields Unblemish Acne Treatment Sulfur Wash: I recently started using this facewash and I'm already obsessed! I can feel it actively working on my skin while I'm washing my face. The consistency is really smooth & it has this really cool purple tint to it. After a week of using this face wash my acne has noticeably subsided and my red spots from acne are fading! Which is really exciting. Here are the facts on this products- Unclog pores and reduce visible redness caused by adult acne with UNBLEMISH Acne Treatment Sulfur Wash. This medicated 3% Sulfur cleanser goes deep into your pores for maximum benefits. Click the link to purchase the face wash from my personal R+F Consultant website. Contact me for any questions!
Rodan + Fields Enhancements Lash Boost: This is one of the coolest enhancement products I have come across! I've seen AMAZING results from this product on other clients, so I can't WAIT to see how my lashes look in 30 days. I've been using this product for about a week. It's SUPER easy to use, it's a clear consistency, and incredibly smooth. You swipe one stroke across your lashes and then head to bed. You can hardly feel is on your eyes and it doesn't get into your eyes! My lashes are already pretty long, but I'm excited to see how they look after using #lashboost. I've considered paying for false lash extensions in the past, but after using this product I'm hoping I will never have to.

Rodan + Fields Redefine Night Renewing Serum: The night renewing serum is individually packaged in small metallic blue tablets as seen in the picture. I love this serum because you can immediately feel a difference in the texture of your skin the morning after you apply the serum. I can tell my skin is smoother and firmer, and this is after ONE NIGHT of use! Talk about fast acting. The serum promises to visibly improve skin texture and firmness and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. I'm trying to stay as young as possible for as long as possible. I find this serum is best used with the AMP MD System which includes the Roller.

Hello Beautiful Ultra Shea Body Cream: I received this body cream from my Wizard Girl buddy for our Holiday gift exchange! I've always loved bath & body works products! They smell so yummy and leave your skin feeling nice and smooth. The scent stays with you for hours. This is the perfect spring smell, but also moisturizes heavily. It's perfect for dry skin.
Amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo: I received this in my Birchbox subscription! I'm obsessed with Birchbox, I should probably do an entire post on Birchbox soon. The dry shampoo smells like berry, and gives your hair total revival. It almost acts as a texturing spray as well. I like to spray dry shampoo really close to my roots, but with this spray you need to put a couple inches inbetween the spout and your scalp. I definitely recommend this dry shampoo. The travel size is really convenient to store in your purse, make up bag, take to events, etc.
Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Pallet: I LOVE this eye shadow pallet! I love Urban Decay's eye shadow pallets, but this is my favorite pallet. Naked 2 and Naked come in close 2nd and 3rd, but this one takes the cake. The colors are a mix between very natural, matte, shimmer, and a few wild colors. I sway more towards the nude, tan, and pink colors. This pallet is PERFECT for game days and every day wear. My favorite colors in the pallet are blonde. skimp, steady, stark, and zone. Unfortunately I don't believe this is in stock at Urban Decay anymore, but you can find it on Amazon.
Make Up Forever Duo Mat Powder Foundation: I love this foundation because you can wear it every day or layer it to wear for special events. I apply the powder with a make up brush to my skin for every day use. I wear it to teach Flybarre, choreography, teach dance, go to the grocery store, etc. I also use this mat powder as a finishing touch when I'm applying make up for game day or special events. Usually I pair it with Make Up Forever Mat Velvet Matifying Foundation on game days for full coverage. I tend to sweat and "shine" when I dance, so I stick to the matte foundations to control that shine. I wear the Duo Mat Powder Foundation in Shade 209.

Benefit Cosmetics They're Real: This is my favorite mascara of all time! It makes my eyelashes SOOO INCREDIBLY LONG!!! The formula is made for you to be able to layer and layer and layer on your lashes without any clumps. Pretty incredible!! I can't wait to see what this looks like on me after I use the lash boost for 30 days too. Transformation photos coming soon. If you're balling on a budget, like me, the Covergirl Full Lash Bloom gives very similar results and can be purchased at any drug store. It's the lash blast mascara in the pink tube :)
