Awake from Younique

When asked to do a Younique review, my one request was that is was something other than the mascara.  It's everywhere.  I wanted to know what ELSE was out there!
Awake Facial Cleanser ($39) did not disappoint!  The product looks a thick gray clay, and works up to a good lather.  It has a very subtle floral scent; it's made with garden chrysanthemum, aloe vera, and licorice root, and I think it's the chrysanthemum that I smell.
I have sensitive combination skin, and this works well for these issues.  I once used a generic Proactive that literally pealed a layer of skin off of my upper lip, so I'm very hesitant trying knew products.  I have had no issues, and I've been using this for about a week.  It leaves my skin squeaky clean; I can't say I've used another product that has done that!
So far, my only negative is the price.  I usually use a cleanser that's under $10 that works fine.  However, since you don't need much more than a lima bean of product, it will last a while!
While I haven't tried this yet, I've read that leaving this on for longer than the recommended minute will make it dry up, like a mud/charcoal mask.  Rinse with warm water to draw out impurities in the skin!

Overall: highly recommended!  And Jessica is a great rep; excellent customer service!

Love it.  Love it love it love it.  That's really all I have to say about it!

Kitsy Lane - Constance Earrings

Kitsy Lane is made up of a community of Boutique Owners who customize their own online storefronts, curating jewelry and accessories from on-trend and up-and-coming designers to sell in weekly flash sales.  Boutiques can be set up for free, but owners are limited on what they can sell until they upgrade with a business starter kit, which includes everything needed to host a home show (including a $400 merchandise credit)!

Constance Earrings
The product is high quality.  The silver Constance Earrings work for ANY outfit.  I've already worn them a dozen times.  They arrived in a standard black jewelry box (like you would get from a department store to wrap earrings as a gift).  The shipping box was a bit over-kill, but shipping is a flat $3.95.

Overall: very pleased.  I also have the Kaila Hoops; I just don't wear them as often, as they hurt my ears.
