Joey New York Review


Joey New York is known for products that give instant visible results, their focus is to develop beauty products to enhance beauty, maintain youthfulness, reverse the signs of aging, and perfect imperfections all while using the purest, safest, most luxurious and exotic ingredients from nature. 

Their newest collection which is infused with coconut water was created to bring you quick fixes to everyday problems using nature's soothing ingredients.


These products include Bye Bye Blackheads, Correct -A-Line for Face and Eyes, Day Gel and Night Cream Eye Duo, Keep it up, Line Up, and Peel-off Masque. I was given Bye Bye Blackheads, Correct-A-Line, and the Eye Duo for review.

Bye Bye Blackheads

This powerful, yet gentle, formula instantly removes blackheads while minimizing the appearance of large pores and treating acne breakouts. In just 60 seconds, the gel masque treatment delivers instant, visible, pain-free results, normalizing damage and brightening lackluster skin for a fresh, clean, clear complexion.

This product is meant to be used 1 to 2 times a week on large pores and blackheads. You put it on, wait for the gel to dry and then using your finger you rub it away. OK, so here are my thoughts on this stuff...remember when you were a kid and you would cover the palms of your hands with Elmer's glue and wait for it to dry and then have fun rubbing the dry glue off your hands? This is what this product reminded me of, only I would never put glue on my face. :) This product works! I tend to get blackheads in my t zone area, mostly on my nose and I have noticed since starting this product that they are pretty much gone. On days when I start to see a few showing up again I use Bye Bye Blackheads and again POOF all gone. I love this stuff and yes, it is fun to use.

Correct-A-Line Filler and Primer
 
 
This two-in-one product instantly smoothes skin and erases imperfections, leaving the complexion camera-ready. Ideal as an all-over filler or primer for makeup, the gel serum mattifies skin while hydrating.
 
This can be worn alone, under makeup, and even over makeup for added coverage. It is very lightweight and absorbs quickly. It feels like powder when you apply and gives your skin this almost satin-y feel. I have been using this under my makeup and I notice it helps my makeup go on more smooth and even.
 
Day Gel & Night Cream Eye Duo
 
Get radiant eyes day and night with this powerful day gel and night cream duo, designed to tighten, smooth and revitalize the delicate eye area.
 
The gel is meant to be used in the day and the cream during the night. They both have a similar texture but the night cream seems to absorb quicker then the gel does. Be careful to only use a small amount of the gel as I noticed the first couple of times I used too much and it left the skin under my eyes feeling a bit sticky. To Be honest I don't know if I have noticed a difference in the skin around my eyes, fortunately I have yet to develop wrinkles around my eyes. Maybe these products will help delay this!
 
Overall I was impressed with these products and I would really like to to try the Peel-off Masque as well. Especially since I have found these products to be very gently on my skin and do not cause any breakouts.
 
You can purchase Joey New York products at several online cosmetic and drugstores.

Guess Girl Review

 
 
Guess has been a brand around since before I can remember and has also been know for quality products. So I was very excited for the chance to try their new perfume.
 
It's called Guess Girl and it come in a cute fun pink bottle with a flower on top. When I saw this my first thought was maybe this perfume is going to be a little young for me. But I was wrong...
 
I loved it and I immediately put it on to see what others would think. I got quite a few compliments on it. I also took it over to my daughters preschool to see what the other mom's had to say about it and these were their thoughts "Wow, I really like it" and "mmm that smells really nice I might have to get me some." and one friend that had sprayed it on herself came up to me a few days later and said she caught a whiff of it on her coat the next day and it was a great little surprise!
 
Overall I have had a lot of positive response from people on Guess Girl. This would be great for any woman in your family. Even better go out and treat yourself to a nice new fragrance. It might surprise your man! My husband said to me when I was wearing it "wow what are your wearing, you smell great!"
 

GUESS Girl is the perfect sexy and irresistible fragrance for your ladies. Sensuous, captivating and fresh,
GUESS Girl is a celebration of bold, beautiful women everywhere. This fragrance has top notes of
Raspberry Nectar, Melon and Bergamot,
combined with middle notes of Brazilian Paradise Orchid, Provence Acacia Flower and Lily.
Finished with base notes of Australian Sandalwood and Madagascar Vanilla
 
Price: 3.4 fl. oz. - $62 ; 1.7 fl. oz - $52 ; 1.0 fl. oz - $40
Available: GUESS retail stories, perfumery chains, department stores and www.guess.com

The Bug Patch


It's starting to warm up here in Bakersfield and spring is just around the corner. You know what that means? With spring comes new life and lots of bugs! So to prepare yourself from those pesky insect bites I would like to share with you a product I was introduced to called The Bug Patch.

 
The Bug Patch is a safe and natural insect repellent patch. It is chemical free and safe for kiddos too. No more messy sprays or lotions, you just stick the patch on your body and it will provide full body protection from mosquito's, horse flies, chiggers, and ticks. So how exactly does this little patch work?
 
The patch sends a stream of Vitamin B1 into your body through the blood stream and is then secreted through the pores as you sweat and masks the odor of carbon dioxide that attracts certain insects.
 
It's almost like you are invisible to the little buggers. You can use it anytime, anywhere that you will be out enjoying the warmer weather. Be sure to toss some of these in with your camping equipment, into your hiking pack, and for all my Alaskan friends you better stock up on these now, the mosquito's are almost getting ready to swarm.
 
We have not yet needed to use these but with the warmer weather comes more outdoor play so I am eager to give them a try . You can purchase The Bug Patch online.

Loreal Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream Review


Loreal has a new beauty collection called Magic that is designed to give everyday women professional makeup artist results. This new collection includes four easy to use products that will help you create that flawless look. Included in the collection are Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream, Magic Lumi Highlighter, Magic Smooth Souffle Blush, and Magic Lumi Light Infusing Primer.
SheSpeaks and Loreal allowed me the opportunity to try one of the products in this line.


Magic Skin Beautifuer BB Cream- Meet the Magic all-in-one skin BB cream, with Beautifying Beads; encapsulated pigments infused in an ultra-light lotion with antioxidants Vitamins C&E. This mullti-tasking skin beautifier delivers 4 beautifying actions in 1: hydrates, corrects, evens and perfects. Instantly transforms to your perfect shade for a flawless, bare skin finish. Over time, more beautiful skin.

This cream comes in four different shades to match your skin tone. When you first squeeze the cream onto your finger or makeup sponge it looks colorless but upon application it transforms into a shade that matches your coloring. It blends in very well and leaves a kind of sheer light coverage that evens out your complexion and hides away imperfections. I love this stuff! I have been using it as a primer underneath my foundation and I love the smooth flawless look it gives me. You can purchase Loreal's Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream in a store near you for a retail price of around $10.95.

Winner #15 mandala
 
 

SeabuckWonders Offers Full Line of Sea Buckthorn Natural Supplements and Personal Care Products – USDA-certified Organic, Cruelty-free, Non-GMO, Gluten-free, Kosher-certified and Paraben-free.

Their new skincare line contains a high concentration of what has been called "the miracle berry", Sea Buckthorn. These berries are hand picked in he Himalayas and contain a high concentration of antioxidants, vitamins, essential fatty acids and the entire Omega family. You can read more about the benefits of Sea Buckthorn here.

A couple of weeks ago I was sent two products in their skincare line as well as a bottle of Omega 7 Complete supplement.

As you well know my job here at Girly Girl is to review products and share what I learn with all of you. I have tried several skincare products as of late, I guess you could say I am your very own guinea pig. I really do test out everything I receive and I love that I can help inform all of you about products that you may be interested in trying but not sure if you should spend your money on. Occasionally when I try out a product and write up my review I will pass the product along to a friend or family member I think would benefit from it. Sometimes though I find a product that I don't want to give up. SeaBuckthorn Exfoliating Facial Cleanser and SeaBuckthorn Facial Cream are two of those products.

I have been using these products for the last two weeks and I love them. The cleanser has a wonderful citrus-y smell and I love the small exfoliating beads that help soften my skin. The facial cream is also not overly greasy and I love how easy it is to apply. Both of these products have been really gentle on my skin and I really do notice a difference in the texture of my skin and the look of my complexion since I started using them. It's only been two weeks!

 
I have also been taking the Omega 7 Complete softgels daily.
 
Among essential fatty acids you find Omega 7, 9, 6 and 3. It supplies vitamins, and the contents of vitamins C, E, B1, B6 and β-carotene are high. Combination ratio among the more than 190 bioactive elements coincides with what our body needs. This oil blend provides a very wide spectrum of support for good health.
 
One thing I have noticed since I started taking these is that I have more energy. I don't know if this is simply coincidence or what but I could use all the energy I can get. I have heard so many great things about these supplements and what it can do for not only your outside beauty but your overall health that I will continue to take these. I also plan to purchase some for my mom, why not share the health!
 
 
February is heart health month and all month long SeabuckWonders has been running a promotion on their supplements. There is still time to take advantage of the 50%  off discount using coupon code HEART50.
 
Guess what? I am going to be sharing the health and wealth with one of you as well. That's right SeabuckWonders is allowing me to give one Girly Girl reader the chance to win a SeaBuckthorn Exfoliating Facial Cleanser and a Omega 7 Complete Softgels.
 
To Enter: Visit SeabuckWonders online and tell me another product you would like to try. You can get extra entries for following GGG through GFC, Subscribing via email, liking us on Facebook and following via Twitter.
