Mary Kay Timewise Moisture Renewing Gel Mask

     My mom has always sworn and lived by 3 brands "only" to keep her skin clean, smooth, and even: Dove, Mary Kay (Timewise), and Clinique. So, of course I never hesitate to try out any of Mary Kay's  skincare products. Their gentle, does not dry out your skin, cleanses, and does not cause breakouts-prevents them!!

Mary Kay promises....

• 10-skin renewing benefits in 10 pampering minutes
• Locks in vital moisture to help your skin look fresher and more youthful. 
• Skin appears less stressed, feels nourished, purified, and calm.
• Instantly hydrates while also locking in moisture
• Helps reduce the appearance of pores as well as fine lines and wrinkles
• Dry to oily skin
• Dermatologist tested. Oil-free

The Truth and Nothing But the Truth..............

Trial #1- Applied gel on face, and left on for 10 minutes as the directions indicated to do. I washed the mask off before getting out of the shower. I was really impressed with how my skin felt afterwards. Very soft, smooth, and it did not dry out my skin. It looked and felt moisturized.

Trial # 2- Applied the gel on my face after I had gotten out of the shower. I did NOT wash if off until the following morning. NO irritation occurred.   I rinsed the gel mask off, my skin was sooooo smooth!! OMG, where has this mask been all of my life. It is worth every cent. Mary Kay's Timewise skin care products never fail.

Nails for Now: Most sinful

Sinful Shine w/Gel Tech- Most Sinful

Truth be Told: This was the 1st polish out of the entire collection that caught my eyes. I think I went into the store twice, before I actually purchased the polish. Lol...its not like I actually "needed" another polish, but hey I couldnt resist. I was very very impressed on how shiny this polish turned out to be. It definitely gave me that gel-shine that is promises!! Now, it would only be fair to add a few more of these to the collection..lol.

Mary Kay's Lash Love- its brush

The Truth and Nothing But The Truth: I really liked the brush of this mascara. It allowed me to be able to grab ahold of each lash. I really like a "bold dramatic" look which I didn't get. No complaints other than that. I later found out by researching on the Mary Kay website that it was designed to give your lashes volume while looking naturally flawless. Sooo, that's why it was not as dramatic as I assumed it would be. However, it did give my lashes volume as it promises to do.  I would use this mascara again (and apply 2 coats...smile) and would purchase it from a Mary Kay consultant.

Mary Kay Concealer

Mary Kay Concealers are for ALL skin types...suitable for sensitive skin, including skin around delicate eye area.

• Dermatologist tested
• Evens out skin tone and hides dark undereye circles
• Waterproof
• Non-comedogenic
• Fragrance free
• Long lasting, light weight,  creamy formula. 
• Comes in 7 different shades

Directions: For best results, select a shade that best matches your skin tone to even out skin. Apply a small dot on targeted area. Gently pat with sponge or fingertips until blended.

The Truth and Nothing But the Truth: I had never tried any of Mary Kay's concealers before, so I was looking to forward to seeing just how good this concealer was.  The shade I received was not the right shade for my skin tone.  I would say that Bronze 1 (Natural) would have been  more of my shade, based upon the pics of their shades on the Mary Kay website.  I still wanted to review the product for coverage, to determine if it was long-lasting, and to see how it blended. 

A few years ago I got  a lil burn on my arm from the oven rack in my kitchen...(long story- don't ask...smile). The burn is only about half the size of my pinky finger, but it annoys me every time I see it...smile. So I thought hey why not see just how much coverage this concealer provides. I was really surprised and impressed because I could hardly see the mark on my arm after covering it with the concealer. I tested it out even further by asking my honey to point out where the burn mark once was, and he couldn't find it. He was like "where did it go".... So if you have dark circles, scars, or blemishes that you want to hid/cover, this is a great option. The concealer provides great coverage, does not easily rub off, and it blends very well!!
