Review: GlamGlow and Sunday Riley

Hi Babes!

     Can you believe it's already the end of May?!  I can't!  A few weeks ago I stumbled into a Sephora, and like any person I aimlessly walked up and down the isles looking at all of the makeup, skincare, and perfumes.  Though I already knew what was in store, something about this store always makes me want to buy something and try new things.  So, there I was standing in the isle of the GlamGlow products.  I've heard a lot of really good things about the face masks, however I never pushed myself to spend $70 on a facemark before.  Feeling bold, and IMPULSIVE I grabbed the  Gravity Mud Firming Treatment Face Mask.  I then proceeded towards the Sunday Riley isle and picked up the Good Genes by Sunday Riley face serum.  I spent a pretty penny that day, but let me tell you my life has since then changed for the better! 

     Immediately when I got home the first thing I did was wash my face so that I could try my new products.  Going into the face mask, I had no expectations whatsoever except for my face to feel better than it did to me print using it.  The package definitely was good quality and the component was not cheaply made.  This face mask in particular came with a small application brush.  When I first opened it, I was amazed at the chromeish color that it came as.  I then followed the directions and slathered the mask on my face using the applicator brush.  After waiting about fifteen minutes, I peeled it off.  After peeling the facemark off I definitely felt that my face was more hydrated, and tighter.  Though i've only used it twice, I really like it so far.

     After I washed my face after using the GlamGlow facemark I toned my face and then tried the Good Genes by London Riley serum.  This serum is supposed to plump the skin, exfoliate, reduce wrinkles, and give your skin a younger appearance.  From the claims on the packaging, I had higher expectations from this product.  The price point was pretty high to what I am used to with my current daily skin routine, however, I've read so many positive reviews about this product, I decided to jump in and give it a try.  After using this serum, I literally saw improvements in my skin within hours.  Granted, I first used this at night time so the next morning is when i saw the results.  When I looked in the mirror upon waking up, my skin was brighter and extremely soft!  I was amazed.  About two and a half weeks in to using this product, I have to say that overall, my extremely sensitive skin is looking really nice, almost to the point where I feel comfortable not wearing any face makeup on a daily basis!
