m-61 Skincare Product Review - Bluemercury

Anyone who knows me knows that I'm a skincare product junkie.  I don't typically use one line all the time - I like to rotate between different lines because they all have different ingredients and claims as to what they can do.  

I found m-61 a few months ago and it's a skincare line that is exclusive to Bluemercury - a site devoted to luxury skincare that works.  Their entire line is full of dermatologist-loved ingredients with power-packed naturals and is 100% free from harmful parabens, sulfates, and phthalates.  Best of all is that it works!  My skin feels so clean and hydrated afterwards.  Their fast blast facial mask takes only 2 minutes and my skin is exfoliated and brightened at the same time.  Another favorite of mine from m-61 is their microdermabrasion scrub - perfectly exfoliated skin in just a minute!

After exfoliating, I'll use their powerglow peel - a fine-line treatment peel exfoliates, resurfaces, clarifies and firms skin in one quick step.

And today is the last day of their amazing sale and gift with purchase so don't miss out!

Beauty Guide: 2017 Favorite Luxury Beauty Finds For Wrinkle Prevention

Ever since I turned 40 last year, I've noticed that my skin is dryer....maybe it is, maybe it's psychological, but I've been a lot better about taking care of my skin.  I've always been fastidious about putting on sunscreen and staying out of the sun, but I am starting to notice some fine lines.  Botox and other fillers are out of the question...I'm a chicken when it comes to pain and I feel like it's a downward spiral if I even got started.  

So, here are some of my favorite products that I've tried and absolutely loved.  You'll notice a lot of Shiseido brands on here - I grew up watching my mom and grandma use it and they have some beautiful skin.  

One thing I cannot live without is my bottle of Shiseido Future Solution Replenishing Treatment Oil - it is absolutely the BEST - it's an incredibly light oil that absorbs immediately into your skin.  I use it after I use my serums and incorporate a pump into my creams.

The IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Makeup is another favorite of mine - it really melts away all the makeup - even stubborn waterproof eyeliner.

Here are some of my favorites that I use all the time - what are some of your tried and true favorites?

The Best Lavender Products

After a long and stressful day, all I want to do is unwind and relax.  My favorite scent for relaxing will always be lavender - there is something so calming about that scent and it's just a beautiful scent especially when the products contain the purest of French Lavender oils.  

My absolute favorite go to bubble bath is the L'Occitane Lavender Foaming Bath - just two capfuls are enough for a bath full of relaxing bubbles.

Favorite hand cleaner on the go - the EO lavender wipes - you will absolutely LOVE these wipes - non-drying and it smells wonderful!  

Favorite shower gel - the whole family uses this one - the EO French Lavender shower gel  it's economical - though honestly, I would pay triple the price - it's THAT good!  

And for my kiddo's dry skin/chapped lips, my go to is the All Good Lavender Healing Balm/Goop  - My son gets very cracked skin when he gets bad colds - he licks his upper lip area under his nose until it's all chapped and cracked.  I put some of this on overnight and by morning his skin has magically healed.  This also works wonders on dry cuticles.  *and no, this is not a sponsored post!*
