L'oreal Revitalift Volume Filler Line Review

L'oreal Revitalift Volume Filler

Hello Everyone, happy 2016 :) to all of you. I hope you had a great holidays.
I'm glad to come back again after my last bog which was a rant. This time I'm coming with my opinion on the L'oreal Revitalift Volume Filler line. Even tho I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes this is my honest opinion about them. With that being said let me tell you that the line have 4 products: Night Cream, Eye Cream, Serum and daily moisturizer. Each of them retail for $24.99 which I think that for being a product that you can buy at the drugstore they have a high price tag. I must say that I really like the presentation of the serum and eye cream. It looks expensive and different which it makes it sanitary when applying. The night cream comes on a squeeze tube that again is good for not transferring bacteria. The moisturizer comes in a jar, I would've prefer a squeeze tube. Also I want to highlight that they all have a very strong fragrance. If you have very sensitive skin, allergies to fragrance or just do not like perfume smell in you skincare, then this is not for you.

L'oreal Revitalift Volume Filler Night Cream



L'oreal claims that it is an overnight mask, anti aging with hylauronic acid and Galanga to boost the skin. First I had no idea what galanga meant so I did a little research. Galanga is an herb  that is from the ginger family. It has 40 antioxidants that can help to protect the skin against aging. The hylauronic acid (which is the sodium hylauronate is very low in the ingredient list so I'm not sure how much it has.Now my thoughts..I would say that the product is not greasy but you still can feel it the next day. It is very moisturizing and a little goes a long way.

L'oreal Revitalift Volume Filler Serum



Claims are boost skin moisture retention,reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The serum dries quickly which I enjoyed. I did notice that it made my skin soft and looks a little more radiant. The only problem that it has to me again is the fragrance at the beginning of the application. It fades after a while.

L'oreal Revitalift Volume Filler Eye Cream



This product claims that it have caffeine to reduce dark under eye and puffiness. I do have a little darkness under my eye and I have seen a little improvement. The cream feels very moisturizing to the point that it does't dries on me. It is meant to use day and night which is good. I have tried it with makeup and that was a disaster. It made look my concealer patchy and streaky. I would only wear it with no makeup at all  during the day or night.

L'oreal Revitalift Volume Filler Daily Volumizing Moiturizer

This moisturizer claims that improve cheekbone, gives fullness making the face look more youthful. It is a good moisturizer for combination skin. It doesn't feels greasy and dries quickly. The problem that I had with it is that it clogged my pores really bad specially on my chin area. I tried two times, after each of them I did the proper extraction but had the same results. I did not like it for that.


Overall thoughts from the new L'oreal Revitalift Volume Filler line I have test it for over 2 week and have not seen much improvement on my under eye fine lines. I would continue to use the night cream, eye cream (without makeup) and the serum.

Samsung Customer Service Rant


Customer Service Nightmare

Hello Everyone,

So I will try to keep this quick.  By no mean I'm trying to say that the company have bad equipment.
At least the ones I have tried they have been really good and lasted long time with no issue at all. The problem that I had with this tablet was our fault and was sent back to repairs. Fine is repair and there begins my nightmare. Let me start by saying that Samsung Customer service is the worst! Samsung made a mistake with my address they had it wrong.UPS deliver my device to another person. Samsung does not want to take full responsibility for it after all I think they should've check with me before sending it.I have been toss around between UPS and Samsung for two weeks and still my device is missing which it is a gift to my kid. 
I've been numerous times for hours with Samsung on the phone and online, also driving to UPS trying to locate the package and no luck from both ends.I was a loyal customer for years (Monitors,TVs,Tablets,Headphones,Cellphones etc). After this I'm over it! I will never buy anything again from this company nor recommend it to anyone.

Hey everyone,
Today I'm going to talk a little bit about the Nordstrom Naturals MAC Eyeshadow X 15 Palette. It is different than the Cool or Warm palettes because the all come with different colors. Althouth some of them can be repeated like Amber Lights, Saddle, Honey Lust.  The color in this palette are :

Vapour: Peach Pink w/ violet pearl

All that Glittets: Beige w/gold pearl
 Saddle: Golden orange brown

There a no new colors in this palette so is you are new into MAC and would like to have some of their most popular colors maybe this is for you. I have used this palette and have done different looks and had no problems with the shadows except one.  With Honey Lust I had a little it of trouble. It is a little bit chunky, glittery and had quite a bit of fall out. Other than that the palette is good.



From left to right
Swatches:Vapour, Honey Lust, All That Glitters, Saddle, Mulch, Ricepaper, Amber Lights, Woodwinked, Wedge, Brun, Omega, Satin Taupe, Embark, Beauty Marked and Carbon.
Here is a look with: Satin Taupe, Saddle,Embark and Vapour

It is Nordstrom exclusive,you can find it online or at a MAC counter in Nordstrom. Now,let's talk about the cost! This baby is $85.00 but if you would buy them sepparatly, the refill pan is $10 and the eyeshadow with its black case is $16. At the same time the are many other brands that have similar colors with great pigmentation like Urban Decay, Lorac, Kat Von D that have palette with a lower price range. It is just a matter of prefference.

Eucerin Everyday Protection SPF 30

Eucerin Everyday Protection Face Lotion SPF 30




I've been using this product more than 4 months and I love it. I have a melasma problem,oily skin and tan very easily so I needed a good sunscreen. I recommend to apply this product at least 5-10 mins before your foundation because it look ghostly but after that it get absorbed.I have tried others and this is the only one that doesn't break me out.

  • Dissolve really fast.
  • It doesn't have any smell.
  • It's lightweight.
  • UVA/UVB protection.
