Dead Sea Mud Mask // Youth Express Eye Gel // Emu Oil
InstaNatural is a beauty brand that I've recently been loving (the argan oil hair mask has literally transformed my hair - my review!) so I was excited to try out a few more products from their line. They use only natural and organic ingredients so I can feel good about putting it on my skin and it's even better when I find a product that is actually effective too!

Dead Sea Mud Mask (buy):

This dead sea mud mask is my absolute favorite out of the bunch! I love applying masks of every kind as it's like a mini spa moment for me and this dead sea mud mask definitely left my face feeling fresh and radiant! The dead sea mud mask is an all-natural detoxifier and can actually be applied to both the face and body. It works to absorb excess oil, dirt, and toxins from the skin, restoring a more even skin tone and clearer complexion. While this type of mask is especially recommended for those with oily and acne-prone skin, I found that even on my dry skin it really helped clear out the weekly build-up that I get and didn't leave my skin feeling tight or uncomfortable afterwards. This mask is definitely a new weekly must for me!

Youth Express Eye Gel (buy):





For as long as I can remember, I've had dark circles under my eyes. Lately though, as I'm waking up a couple times a night to feed Kennedy, I've noticed some puffiness issues as well. After about 2 weeks of using this gel both in the morning and night, the puffiness does seem to have gone down a bit and I think the darkness is a little lighter too! The gel contains hyaluronic acid that I find really works to help plump up my skin and make the wrinkles under my eye area less visible. There is a slight cooling effect upon application but the gel is smooth and glides right on. In the time that it takes for me to apply my eye makeup (probably 6-7 minutes), the gel is completely dried and I will apply concealer on top without any problems. I use less than half a pump each time so this tube will definitely last me awhile -- can't wait to see my results continue to improve!

Emu Oil (buy):




I'm a big fan of argan oil and was curious to try out this emu oil. The oil is slightly white and is thicker than the argan oil but doesn't have any sort of scent. While I find it to be too thick for me to apply to my face, I have been applying it to a couple eczema patches on my face and elbow and find that it really helps calm down my skin. It absorbs within a few minutes and the moisture does last for hours! The oil is reported to help with hair growth so I know I'll be needing this as my hair does go through a phase where it falls out postpartum!
