    No B.S. strives to revolutionize skincare with clean and effective products that deliver real results. While the FDA has banned 11 toxic and harmful ingredients from skincare, No B.S has banned 1,500 from theirs. They take pride in their clean skincare, not only through the high quality ingredients, but also through recyclable packaging and minimal waste. In addition, they give back to organizations such as Feeding America, She Recovers, and more! Now that is a philosophy I can stand behind. They kindly gifted me their Vitamin C+E Serum, Retinol Night Cream, and Caffeine Eye Cream to test out. As this brand was new to me, today I wanted to share with you my…

    I've always been intrigued by Flower Beauty, the cosmetic line created by Drew Barrymore, so when they had some fabulous Black Friday promotions on the entire line, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to do a makeup haul.  The only product I've tried prior to this haul is the concealer, but the rest are all entirely new to me.  I hope you enjoying reading my thoughts on how all these products performed!
