If you are looking for a new moisturizer to add to your daily skincare routine, here are few options you can consider. I have used quite many moistturizers from Estee Lauder over the years and here are the ones that I liked the most:

Estee Lauder "Verite Moisture Relief Creme"

Let me start from the best of the best _ "Verite Moisture Relief Creme". This alcohol-free and fragrance-free moisturizer is for truly sensitive skin. It contains special anti-irritants that help reduce the appearance of redness _ common to sensitive skin. The formula is free of common allergens and created without harsh emulsifiers.




 Estee Lauder "Verite Moisture Relief Creme" is the most soothing, gentle moisturizer I have ever used. It was the only cream that didn't irritate my sensitive skin that was covered with red rash from an allergic reaction to one of my shampoos, back then. Of course, I could name many other moisturizers that could moisture my skin longer than "Verite Moisture Relief Creme" but when my skin was in its worst condition this was the only product that helped my skin to be moisturized without irritating already irritated skin. 
The lightweight formula feels luxurious when you apply on your skin and absorbs quickly while leaving the skin smooth and hydrated. So, if you have very sentitve skin or your skin is extremly irritated for whatever reason, you should feel safe to use this moisturizer.


Estee Lauder "Daywear Advanced Multi-Protection Anti-Oxidant Creme"

If you looking for a moisturizer with SPF support, you can check out Estee Lauder "Daywear Advanced Multi-Protection Anti-Oxidant Creme" . This is a high-performance moisturizer for normal to combination skin. This cream not only moisturizes the skin for up to 24 hours but also reduces the first visible signs of aging, like dulness and fine lines. It has SPF15 to help you stay safe agains sun rays. The only thing you should keep in mind is that it is slightly scented, but nothing that can bother too much.




Estee Lauder "Hydrationist" Maximum Moisture Creme

Another great product from  Estee Lauder __ "Hydrationist" Maximum Moisture Creme. This is a lightweight moisturizer that absorbs quickly and leaves the skin feel amazing. It is slightly scented but to the point that never borthered me when I used use this cream. "Hydrationist" is perfect under makeup as well. The only thing is that it doesn't contain SPF so you will need to apply sunscreen after this moisturizer.




Edited: After I published this post I found out that unfortunately, "Hydrationist" Maximum Moisture Creme has discontinued. 

Thanks for reading lovelies.

There are many things you can do on weekends in New York City but how about outside of city, have
you wondered how you could spend your weekend ? Here are few things you can consider when you are heading outside of your city:
 If shopping is something that can make your day, go to Weschester Mall in downtown White Plains, New York. This upscale mall has mid to high end stores and some of the major retailers like Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus. There are plenty of comfortable sitting areas on every story and gorgeous decorations.

If you enjoy outside dining and people watching, you will enjoy going to Piermont, New york. It's a small village incorporated in Rockland County, New York, on the west side of the Hudson River, only 25 minutes away from the George Washington Bridge. Piermont, NY has a lot of restaurants and coffee shops with outside sitting areas, that gives this place very charming, European look.

If you don't mind to drive little further from NYC, you should visit Cold Spring, New York that is a village in the town of Philipstown, NY. Once you are in Cold Spring, make sure you go to Dockside Park __not only you will enjoy beautiful views on Hudson River but also, you may get treated with outdoor movies or live music. We went there this Sunday and enjoyed Live Music (check out my Instastories for more details __ HERE). Buy some delicious ice cream in the creamery across the street. And, you can not leave Cold Spring without strolling Main Street where you will find the cutest small shops.

If you have little kids and you are in Bergen County NJ, you can visit Bergen County Zoo in Paramus NJ, your little ones will love there even though it's a small zoo. The best ting is that it has a train and  also, you can purchase a food stick for birds for $1 and feed them. For my daughter that was the best part of her Bergen County Zoo experience .

 Today I want to show you guys a few products I've recently bought at Sephora and that I desperately needed, especially this Donna Karan Cashmere Mist Deodorant ($29) that I had purchased few times in the past and lip products. I picked up this gorgeous DIOR ADDICT "Lacquer Stick ($37) in #202 "Stargirl" and MAC Grand Illusion Glossy Liquid Lipcolour ($22) in color "Dance All Night."

Donna Karan "Cashmere Mist", Stilla eyeliner, MAC and Dior lip glosses, Caudalie eye cream

I also bought Stilla "Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner" ($22) because they didn't have in the store my favorite Sephora eyeliner but I'm happy with this Stilla eyeliner too, it's got a thin tip that helps me create a clean line, it's waterproof and bold black.

I also bought this Caudalie Energizing and smoothing eye cream ($39) that is a fragrance-free anti-wrinkle eye treatment to combat fine lines, puffiness, and dehydration. I like that it comes in a tube that is a great hygienic option and it contains Vitamin C to support collagen around delicate skin. 

Have you used any of these products? Let me know in the comments below.
Thanks for reading, and make sure to come back on Wednesday.

 Long gone those days when I used to wear matt finish makeup on my face and loved it. In recent years, I started to appreciate glowing skin more, whether I get it from skincare or makeup products. When I saw Tatcha Luminous Dewy Mist ($48) in  this beautiful bottle, that was claiming that my skin would get that luminous glowing look, I knew, I had to have it.



What is Tatcha Luminous Dewy Mist:

This mist is a silky, fine mist moisturizer for a boost of soothing hydration and a luminous complexion. It is formulated with more than 20 percent botanical oils to leave skin dewy. It is also infused with anti-aging complex, Japanese anti-aging super-foods __ Green Tea, Rice And Algae that restores the look of youthful radiance.


                                                  How to use Tatcha Luminous Dewy Mist:

As the label claims, the Dewy Skin Mist's super-fine spayer only takes two to three spritzes for your whole face but in reality, you will end up spraying way more than that. You can use right before applying makeup for flawless application and dewy, glowing look, or you can mist it over makeup you replenish moisture and prevent caking.




I love the idea of applying this mist over makeup to give the finish that glow, but unfortunately, I can't apply it over my makeup because, for some reason, this mist gets clogged or something, it starts leaking and the spray is never even. The product leaves oily blotches that have to be blend out after application otherwise it's noticeable  on the skin. Once I blend it out, the finish is absolutely beautiful.

Overall, it's a great mist for glowing skin, I also like the fact that it doesn't contain harmful ingredients,  but the application process makes me realise that I will not be repurchasing it in future.

Have you used this mist yet? Let me know how it worked for you.
