Dove Anti -Stress Micellar Water Body Wash & Body Soap

Micellar water has been the word in facial cleansers for awhile . Now Dove is the first brand to bring it to bodycare in the US  with their new Anti- Stress Micellar line. 

Dove makes some of the best creamy cleansers and I am a big fan.  With the Micellar line , the cleanser is a gel this time , not a cream. It's still plenty moisturizing as we would expect from Dove and it has their Nutrium Moisture . The formula has a thick consistency , is very gentle on skin and washes clean.

There is a fairly strong fragrance here of a floral blend, chamomile and sandalwood. The scent doesn't seem to linger long after using though  , it's stronger out of the bottle or bar. 

Both the body wash and soap are sulfate free. 

Dove Anti -Stress Micellar Water Body Wash is sugg. retail $5.97 

Dove Anti -Stress Micellar Water Bar Soap is sugg. retail $ 3.49 per twin pack

CK One Summer 2018

CK ONE Summer is back with the 2018 edition.

This year it's a fab blod  blue bottle.  While I've always been  so - so with the fragrances, I love the bottles and this year's is the best yet.

CK ONE Summer is  a new version  although one that stays close to previous versions.  Scent wise I've often been so- so with this but it's very much a refreshing , cool fragrance that works well in the heat.  

The EDT begins with citrus ( lime mojito acc. to the brand) and cedarwood notes.  Pineapple and guava are also listed but on me they really didn't register much. And I would love to clock that pineapple note. As it dries down it gets lighter and less masculine with some barely there dewy florals and coconut milk.  That last note starts to bring the mojito reference  and that makes this a great, easy to wear Summer scent . 

As always,  there is an atomizer packed separately , so you can use as a splash or spray. 

CK One Summer 2018 is  $ 58 at Macys for 3.4 oz

INC.redible Shook To The Core Lipgloss

 INC.redible has some new Summer season ready lipgloss. Wherever your fun takes you , this lippie will give you shine and pop.

Shook to the Core is a  glitter formula but not all over glitter.  It's not full of  glitter pieces,  they're scattered throughout and I think that makes it a more wearable for those of us who are past festival age but thinks lips like this are fun.  They have semi sheer color that really wakes you up and brightens .

There is a little streaking with them when you apply, but that blends out easily. They have no scent or taste.

There are three shades-  Fairy Extreme ( fuschia),  Off the Hook ( violet blue) and  Not Your Average Bird ( hot pink with flashes of coral ). 

 The INC.redible line, founded  by Nails INC creator Thea Green makes a lot of trendy lip looks at great price points.  I reviewed their Foiling Around   metallic colors previously.

INC.redible Shook To The Core are $ 8 at Nails INC  .

Peter Thomas Roth Skin To Die For Mineral Matte CC Cream SPF 30

Peter Thomas Roth makes some of my favorite skincare  and for Summer there are several great new launches to help us keep our skin  protected and cared for this season.

First up is the new Skin To Die For  Mineral Matte CC  Cream. We don't see nearly enough matte CCs  and this is perfect those of us who are more oily but still want to use a CC, BB or perfecting primer.

Mineral Matte CC has good medium coverage that perfects ( it has light scattering optics) and smoothes.  It is a thicker cream but not too thick and blends well. It is a breathable , comfy matte. Not super dry , not heavy , chalky or cakey  and  it doesn't settle into lines so it can be used by all ages, in my opinion.  The Mom loves this one too.

The coverage along with the matte finish , physical SPF 30  and other good for skin ingredients make this a no brainer for days when the heat is on and you want a lighter, less makeup look or to wear by itself all the time if you don't use foundation.

Ingredients include high potency THD ascorbate vitamin C , glycerin  which adds light hydration and kaolin to absorb oil. 

Paired  up with the brand's also good Skin To Die For Mattifying Primer  and us oilies are good to go.

Peter Thomas Roth Skin To Die For  Mineral Matte CC  Cream SPF 30 comes in three shades( shown in Medium) and is $ 38 at Sephora


**Also shown is new Max Mineral Naked SPF to be covered in a separate post soon.
