Philosophy Facial Cleanser & Moisturizer

Honestly, after having a baby I noticed my skin started feeling really tired & stress. I also got bored of my facial cleanser & moisturizer so I asked a couple of friends & one of them recommend trying Philosophy's Purity Made Simple as a cleanser. I went to Sephora & one of the reps suggested the same thing too! She said it was good because it is a makeup remover, cleanser, toner & moisturizes as well! I was stuck between the Purity & Philosophy's MicroDelivery but the rep said the MicroDelivery is only good for 2-3 times a week not as a daily cleanser.

So I ended up getting Purity & tried it out last night! I used it on a cotton pad to remove my eye makeup & I didn't like it. I found it too creamy or whatever & led me to rubbing my eye area a lot which I try to avoid! I ended up using my regular makeup remover from Neutrogena. I then used Purity on my skin & it did feel soft afterwards! I really like it! I think I will only be using it as a cleanser rather than makeup remover on my eyes.

As for the moisturizer, the Sephora rep suggested since I am trying Philosophy, I might as well try their moisturizer as well. There was a promo going on for Hope In a Jar which included a mini size & medium size for $49. I wasn't too keen on the smell but I did like the light formula & how the rep said it will brighten my skin! I only started using this today so hopefully I will be able to see some good results in the next few days/weeks!

What are your favourite facial cleansers & moisturizers?
I really need ones that will help my tired & stressed skin lol

I tried to do Too Faced Naked Eye's Classic...


but I failed LOL so I just did my own blending


birthday nails! Sally Hansen's Gem Crush Pink
I didn't like them at first because the application is really messy
& doesn't really look good but I got used to it.
I am going to give it another try
