Cozy Reader Club June 2016 Review

I've been feeling really under the weather today (both physically and emotionally) but I really wanted to talk about this lovely new subscription box that I came across recently! I've been re-entering the world of subscription boxes slowly, both because I have a lot more bills now than I did before (higher rent, car payments, student loans, the works) and because often, I just find that products can pile up faster than I can use them. Although I do tend to splurge on things that I consider my "hobbies", such as skincare, books, games, and makeup, I'm a very frugal person in real life and a little bitty part of my soul shrivels every time I have to toss a product because it expired before I could use it. That being said, lifestyle/specialty subscription boxes are some of my favorites, especially book boxes! As soon as I saw a new book sub box out on the market, I knew I had to give it a try. Plus, there's no expiration dates on books. ;)

Play! by Sephora May 2016 Review

Before I begin, I know I'm putting this review out super late. Between school, job hunting, and just *life in general*, I haven't had much time to do much of anything, let alone blog. I'm sure most of you who come across this review will have already seen what's inside, but I do want to talk a little bit about it and show you what I received!

Derma E Purifying Gel Cleanser Review + Ingredient Spotlight

Cleansers are one skincare product that I just can't settle on. Whenever I think I find the perfect cleanser for my skin, a new one emerges on the market that makes me question my entire life and go purchase it. I'm a cleanser whore. It's true.

So when Derma E contacted me and offered to send me a box of their best-selling goodies for review, I couldn't pass up the offer to try out their activated charcoal cleanser!

Peora Facial Cream Review

Peora is a Korean skincare brand that specializes in natural, fermented skincare products. When Peora asked me to try their Facial Cream, I was immediately excited because fermented skincare is one of things my skin absolutely loves. Peora utilizes a concoction of beneficial microorganisms that are capable of penetrating deeper into the spaces between skin cells, allowing for quicker absorption and longer hydration.
