Hi there!

If you’ve been following my Instagram stories last week and this week, I’ve been posting a lot about these amazing Blooming Amethyst products. My code Carolina15 will get you 15% off sitewide. As always with brands I end up partnering with/being sponsored by, I am always a consumer and fan of them first! I met the founders of this amazing brand at an event in Los Angeles and quickly fell in love with this small company.

I’m a huge fan of organic and natural skincare products, and I love that all the ingredients are natural, simple, and made with essential oils and botanicals. They all smell insanely good! I loved the jasmine rose body scrub, muscle balm, (Hubby loved the beard oil I got him), and the lavender and eucalyptus hand sanitizers that I had bought previously. They sent me an amazing gift box with the botanical facial, citrus hand sanitizer, head eaze, floral goddess body scrub, Indian black soap, and rose water face toner. They are all pictured above and I’ll just give you some of my fave benefits.

From top to bottom of the photos: the botanical facial is made with barley lavender and oats and can be used as a mask or face scrub that moisturizes and unclogs pores, reduces appearance of dark spots, and makes your skin soft and glowy! The rose water toner tones and balances PH and controls excess oil. Helps reduce redness irritation and acne and I love it as a makeup setting spray too! The Indian black soap strips away excess oil softens and relieves acne rashes or other irritation. These are all for face:)

The floral goddess body scrub has rose hip oil and other flowers and essential oils, as well as Himalayan salt so it doesn’t just exfoliate your body while smelling amazing but it also helps control the skin’s PH balance, controls excess oils, strengthens and regenerates skin cells and tissue, has anti-inflammatory properties, and can help reduce irritated skin, acne, and eczema! It’s a miracle product.

Lastly from the last pic I was already in love with the hand sanitizers I had but the circus one is SO good, and my head eaze roll-on has helped when I have a headache and just generally want to roll it on my wrists temples and back of my neck for some soothing aromatherapy.

They have so many other wonderful products guys, check them out and use my code “Carolina15” for 15% off!

Hi guys!

If you’ve been following me for a bit you know I’m all about vegan cruelty-free skincare and makeup whenever possible, and I’ve been a fan of Tarte cosmetics for some time. I made the switch about two years ago and I’m so glad I did! I now have a 15% off discount link, so do click on it to shop your items and save yourself some money (or get an additional item with the savings, haha). Above are some of the products I recently picked up, as well as a couple of their products I’ve used before and really love like the shape tape concealer and the “lights camera lashes” mascara. The mascara doesn’t clump and gives you natural-looking long lashes. The other mascara they have has a different brush and goes on differently so it’s not my favorite.

The new products I tried were many shades of the “Quench Lip Rescue” which are a hydrating tinted gloss. They are very natural and not too much pigment and they keep your lips moisturized. Plus the packaging is to die for (especially if you’re an ocean-loving mermaid like me). I got the rose, coral, and the buff colors. I was already a fan of their color splash lipstick in the ocean line which you see in the blue packaging above. The shade I used a ton this summer is “weekender” which gives you a coral lip. Also the “escape” rose color is awesome for fall. “Weekender” without the gloss on top is in the second to last last photo I posted above! The last photo selfie was of me mixing the weekender color splash lipstick with the buff quench lip rescue!

Hope you love the products as much as I do. My discount link will get you 15% off any products! Check out my page on LIKEtoKNOW.it (download the app for easy shopping) for all my Tarte faves! I made a shopping guide collage with all the products I use and love (see image below). You can shop my links on my LIKEtoKNOW.it quickly and easily plus favorite them for future reference. As always I will update you when they are having sales like I did in my recent one below for cyber week!

Xo,

Carolina
