Vitamin C Serum Review




I have used a lot of different Vitamin C serums and believe it or not they are all super different. When I got to review The LBelleza  Vitamin C I was very excited. Just like most vitamin C it comes is in a bottle withan eyedropper dispenser.

This one is pretty thin just like a lot of them as well. I try to hurry and rub it in so it doesn't drip all over the place. I was very happy to find out it has a light smell. I have used vitamin C serums that had a strong not so pleasant smell to them.  The smell of laBelleza is odd it sort of reminds me of a drinking alcohol smell but I can only smell it when I stick my nose in the bottle.

I have been using this bottle in an unconventional but effective way. I have been using it to treat a rash on my arm. The rash is pretty much dry skin that itched like CRAZY. The vitamin C serum calmed the itch and is safe to use as often as I need so I've been using it. The rash is pretty much gone and i have this serum to thank. My medicine cream can only be used twice a day and I was itching a lot more often than that.

Since it absorbs quickly and invisible nobody knows when I put it on my arm or face. I love using vitamin C on face as well. It makes my skin soft and smooth. It can be worn under makeup with no pealing or flaking.

Ageless by Thera Vita

Serums are the newest skin care product I discovered. I mean I guess I have always known about them but I just discovered hyaluronic acid and amazing it is. When I was chosen to review Ageless by Thera Vita I was super excited. 

Ageless is a Hyaluronic Acid Serum and wrinkle cream with an advanced professional anti-aging formula that contains vitmins C, E, D, and A. With Infusions of aloe, witch hazel, green tea, MSM, and lavender oil to enhance natural beauty and collagen formulation.  It can also help with Rosacea and acne. 




This professional anti-aging moisturizer will help melt away this years. The serum is designed specifically to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while making the skin appear younger, smoother, and fresher.  As you turn back the hands of time you will experience plumper firmer, more youthful looking and feeling skin. People will think you discovered the fountain of youth!

Not only is Ageless an Anti-Aging serum it is multi-symptom relief. It repairs acne scarring and sun damage, alleviates dry, scaly skin, minimizes pores and facial redness. It will also treat flare-ups and inflammation caused by Rosacea and other skin conditions. 

I love that this serum is a pump type dispenser, those little droppers are okay but this is my favorite type of dispenser. A few pumps is all it takes to have enough serum for my entire face. The serum is pretty thick and you can feel the aloe softness but goes on smooth. 


It absorbs in seconds and dries clear. Being honest, I do feel it on my face for a few minutes but that feeling goes away.  It's not a heavy feeling but I still know it's there. After the serum dries I just apply my regular moisturizer and eye cream and they all wear perfectly under makeup. There is no pealing or flaking and it is weightless after those initial few minutes. Just do NOT apply your moisturizer before the serum dries (any serum) or you feel the difference. I know I learned my lesson so, you will only do that once it a very tacky feeling. 

I love the way my face looks and feels after using this serum for a week and a half. It is smooth, soft, and looks amazing!

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

XFacio Labs Xtreme XT Toner and Pro-Hylauronic Acid Serum Review/GIVEAWAY



I have never heard of the brand XFacio Labs and y'all know that I love to discover new products so I was super excited to work with them to review not one but two amazing products. I received their Pro-Hylauronic Acid Serum and Xtreme XT Toner. Let me tell you a little bit about both of the products.

The Xtreme XT Toner Mist is formulated with Matrixyl 3000, advanced peptides, & plant extracts to flash firm your face. Good for all skin types it increases skins permeability to better absorb moisturizers & other skin products. It will tighten, plump up, and promote radiant skin. Noticeable results in JUST 1 week guaranteed.





The Hyaluronic Acid Skin Care serum is formulated with Vitamin C & E. Which makes it a potent anti-aging, wrinkle moisturizer that plumps, hydrates, and fills in fine and wrinkles. It is a superior plant based natural and organic solution.  Called a mini face lift in a bottle that come with a no questions asked money back guarantee.






I was a little confused when I saw the toner was a spray because I have never seen a spray on toner. But then I thought about how wonderful the idea is. When I travel I always bring my toner but too often forget to bring cotton balls so I'm using lots of punched up tissue paper to apply my toner. So this is a great idea for traveling.  The toner easily sprays on and dries quickly. It is light weight and feels great on my skin with no irritation. When I spray it I love the cool refreshing feeling

The serum is an odd texture that is a little thin but not watery. It is almost a gel consistency which I really like. It is easy to apply without making a huge mess.  It absorbs quickly with no stickiness or greasy/oily feeling. It does not peel or flake even under makeup. My face feels unbelievably soft and silky while using.

XFacio has offered to give one of you a chance to win a bottle of both the Xtreme XT Toner and Pro-Hylauronic Acid Serum -- how amazing !! That means I have to go over the rules so here they are:

Delfogo RX Vitamin C 22% Anti-Aging Serum review and giveaway



I never heard of Delfogo until i was asked to review Deflogo RX is a Vitamin C Anti-Aging Serum with 22 % Vitamin C. This serum is the highest potency and quality on the market. It also has ingredients that increases environmental protection against UVA, UVB, and infared radiation.  it stimulates collagen to improve the signs of aging and increases skin's firmness.



I have used serums before so I was excited to try Delfogo RX Professional Vitamin C 22% Anti-Aging Serum. The serum is dispensed with a dropper.  It's consistency is runny but that most serums I have used were runny. It is easy to apply I just take the dropper and squeeze a little in my hand then apply to my face.  It absorbs extremely quickly with no visual residue and it does not peel or flake . It looks greasy or oily but it is not. I would be lying if I didn't say it has a slight sticky feel to it at first but nothing unbearable.

The scent is a little odd but I have noticed that most natural ingredient products have an odd scent. I mean it is a vitamin and we all know those don't smell great. The good thing is it doesn't last long so it doesn't bother me. I only smell it when applying the serum.



I have reviewed amazing products from Skin Pro and this one is no different. My skin feels smooth and silky after using so I'm very pleased with this product.  I'm very happy to have discovered Delfogo and on their site they have tons of other products that I would love to try.

Guess what Delfogo has agreed to give one of you a chance to win your very own bottle of Vitamin C 22% Anti-Aging Serum so that means a giveaway!!! Here are the rules:

Entries will be accepted from 3/3/14 - 3/17/14

Vouray Serum RV - Review and GIVEAWAY



I talk a lot about skin care and finding a good quality product. As I age gracefully, I find there are more skin care products I want to use. Some of them I would never have found if not for the internet. I look at products in stores but I like to target my trouble areas. I really I would try one of everything but that's not exactly logical.  I was recently introduced to Vouray Serum RV. What is that you ask? Vouray Serum RV (revive) contains a powerful protein called Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF), a much sought-after ingredient that supports the natural cell turnover process in your skin.

This improved cell turnover rate helps your skin slough old skin cells and replace them with new ones more often, keeping your skin looking young, healthy, and fresh!

Serum RV also contains an active botanical extract from natural unaltered barley seeds and wild barley gras. Their effectiveness is further enhanced by pristine Sea Water, which contains a wide variety of minerals and salts.

Serum RV is light weight and is a medium consistency and it has little or no smell. It goes on smooth and applies very evenly and it doesn't peal or flake. It is only slightly sticky UNLESS you apply moisturizer too soon after you apply the serum then it is very sticky. So be careful to let it set in a little while before putting on your moisturizer.

This formula is recommended once a day and I see why, although it is light weight it is a little heavier than a moisturizer I would wear under make up.  My face feels fantastic after using the serum for over a week.
I don't know any other way to explain it but my face feels hydrated. It has no dry feeling to it all. I also don't feel the need to excessively moisturize.  Over all very impressed and I would buy this product again.

Entries will be accepted from November 25, 2013 - December 10, 2013
