Montagne Jeunesse Face Masks

Hello Beauties! Recently i received some Face Masks from Montagne Jeunesse to try out and to share with you ladies. I received 7 different packs to use. I have only used 1 so far and i will update you on the others one as i go along. I have to say i am impressed, i was a bit nervous though lol. I dont like putting just anything on my face since my skin is sensitive and i turn red very easily. But that did not happen, my skin was very refreshed and it had a beautiful glow to it =)

Heres the 7 packs of Mask i received from Montagne Jeunesse

Fruit Smoothie: Pore Cleansing
Green Tea Peel Off: Detox and Pore Cleansing Masque
White Chocolate: Ultra Deep Cleansing Masque
Apricot Scrub: Deep Exfoliating and Ultra Cleansing
Skin Polisher: Anti Stress
Clean-Up Mud: Deep Cleansing and with ALOE Juice for Blemish prone skin


The one i used first is the Face Tonic. This is a Mask (fabric) you take right out the package, it already has the eye, nose, and mouth area out. You simply apply it to clean face for about 10 minutes, and relax. This mask is said to uplift and firm due to the plant collagen.

This Mask was very relaxing, i sat back with my eyes closed and let the mask do its magic lol. Afterwards my skin did appear a little tighter with a nice glow to it! I was pleased! I cant wait to try the other ones out!

The "CURE" to Acne!!

Hey Beauties!!! Boy do i have some amazing tips for you today, now this has worked for me and many many others. But before you try, i suggest you look online or/and ask your Dr.


(The One I Use)

Background::

Now i have never had a problem with face acne in my teens until very recently. I didn't really start to break out until May of 2010, very very mild, but it wasn't normal. Now keep in mind i just had a baby in Aug of 2009. Maybe it had something to do with that. My husband thought and really still do think it was because i was starting to wear makeup on my face, something of which i never done either...i was always the chic wearing eyeliner, mascara and gloss, nothing more. Maybe my face couldn't handle it? The acne would calm down and go away, come back and go away. Now around Oct i broke out SO bad, the worse ever in my life, i broke out on my cheeks....i had enough, went to a Dermo... Dr prescribed some meds, but gave me samples 1st to try...at this visit she told me it could be hormonal due to just having a baby girl awhile ago...*BINGO*... OK now wait, i tried the gel she prescribed me...and it went BAD!! It was way to strong for my skin, it burned and caused peeling...needless to say i stopped taking it.

I tried many other over the counter acne treatments..nothing helped like i expected. Finally i ordered some Aveeno Clear Complexion foaming wash and moisturizer (worlds best moisturizer!!) and this has helped somewhat...while using this, a fellow youtuber/blogger had put up something that has helped her face clear up 100%!!!! ACV toner and Mask!!! God had finally answered my prayers...Check their blog out for amazing results and recipe HERE and here's the VIDEO

I have been using this for almost a month, and all my acne (bumps) are gone. I still get little ones from time to time, mainly on my forehead and i think that's from the oils from my hair causing that (always had that issue with oils dripping down lol) . This is amazing, its cheap, and its all natural. Whats better than that...you tell me.

How I Use It?

I use the toner 2xs a day, morning and night. I use the mask 2xs a week. The smell does not bother me and i love the results. Now I'm just working on the dark spots to fade and go away for good. Its fading, but to speed it up, i am also using Ambis Fade Cream 2xs a day. More about Ambis ingredients HERE 

Caution::
•Apple cider vinegar is acidic, so use caution when applying it to your face. If your skin becomes irritated, do not use, or dilute the toner with more water..•If you are allergic to apples, do not use..

I hope this helps someone like it has helped me =)

Stay Blessed!!!

Neutrogena: Acne Wash (Grapefruit)




Hey Beauties!



Are you looking for a great over the counter acne wash for your face with out breaking the bank? Well do i have a great product that i recommend....Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash in pink grapefruit. This product smells so good, it really wakes you up in the morning. Now i use mines 2xs a day, morning and nite follow by my moisturizer. I have been using this for about 3weeks now and i have notice a difference. My active acne are gone and all i have left are the blemishes (dark spots) which arent even bad like that, but im using Ambi for that right now and will be also picking up some lemons as well. Back to the acne wash...






This wash is great for sensitive skin ladies like myself...which cant handle a drop of Benzoyl Peroxide. So if you have sensitive skin, beware of using this on your face. However, Salicylic Acid is more gentle on your face and still helps treat your acne, but benzoyl peroxide gets deeper in the pores, but my face can not handle that. The Salicylic Acid has helped me alot though, and i love this product. Im half way through the bottle, use 2xs a day, started off with 1 pump each time now im using 2 pumps each time. This drys my face a little but not as bad as what Benzoyl Peroxide did...it was dry-cracked-burned, etc...=(






Product Info:






price range from 5-7bucks depending on your area



has microclear technology, clears breakouts, 100% naturally derived grapefruit extract



has salicylic acid of 2%



With an uplifting blast of grapefruit plus vitamin C. This unique formula clears blemishes and blackheads. Eliminates oil and dirt without over drying.

Please note i did purchase this product with my own money=)
