Weekly Favourite | Indeed Labs Hydraluron Volumizing + Tinted Lip Treatment Review

This week's favourite product goes to Indeed Labs Hydraluron Lip Treatments - 9ml/ $14.99CAD

I'm a sucker for products that are beauty award winners, so when I saw that these lip treatments had won beauty awards, I had to try them!

I've probably tried hundreds of lip balms and treatments, always searching for something to soothe and hydrate my chronically dehydrated and parched lips. Nothing has won me over as much as these Indeed Labs Lip Treatments.

I was dealing with cracked and damaged lips resulting from some skincare I tested out. I was slathering on all kinds of lip products and nothing was helping. My lips were still damaged a week after the problem had started. I received these lip treatments from Indeed Labs just in time! As soon as I applied the Hydraluron Lip Treatment it felt so soothing and gave me some relief. After using the lip treatment consistently for a couple of days my lips were healing and a sheet of dead/old skin peeled right off my lips. A few days after starting these lip treatments, my lips were completely healed and repaired!

About:

Expanding on the bestselling and award-winning hydraluron™ series, this all-in-one lip treatment contains extremely soothing ingredients that are designed to hydrate, nourish, plump, and treat lips. A combination of pomegranate sterols, hyaluronic acid, coffee, tea, and tropical fruit extracts work to increase hydration, promote elasticity, and replenish the lip’s moisture barrier. Using Volulip™, this lightweight, smooth and non-sticky lip treatment improves lip texture with a visible plumping effect to the lips; while ultra-filling spheres™ are absorbed into the upper layers of the skin to plump and smooth out deep and superficial wrinkles. Not only does hydraluron™+ volumising lip treatment improve lip roughness, dryness, skin tone, and radiance, it also helps lips adapt to environmental changes. 

Clear lip volumizer and Pink Lip Treatment

Benefits:

• Volulip™ improves the internal and superficial lip texture with a visible plumping effect to lips
• Ultra-filling spheres™ help to plump lips, smoothing both deep and superficial wrinkles
• Improves lip moisture balance, roughness, dryness, tone, and radiance

Before and after using the clear Volumizing Lip Treatment

Before and after using the Pink Lip Treatment

The consistency is similar to thicker hyaluronic skincare products that I've used, sort of gel-like. It immediately feels very soothing once applied. The lasting power is quite good for a lip product, better than others that I've tried. I use both the clear and pink Lip Treatments. I keep the pink one in my purse and the clear one by my bedside. Both give the appearance of more youthful lips thanks to their amazing hydrating powers. Lip lines are greatly reduced and lips appear fuller, although I wouldn't say they appeared any larger. There is no sting or painful feeling with these lip treatments, just a soothing, hydrated feeling.

I like the pink one the best as the hint of pink adds just a hint of colour which also helps add to a more youthful look. 

I'm obsessed with these lip treatments and can say they are the best lip treatments I've tried so far, and I've tried a lot! 

Whether you're looking to hydrate parched and dehydrated lips, want a more youthful-looking pout, or as a natural makeup look, I highly recommend giving these a try! The price isn't bad at all, but it's actually a small price to pay for the results that you get! 💋

Now that I know how much I love these, I definitely have to try out the peach-coloured one as well. It also comes in a red shade if that's your jam.

These products are vegan, cruelty-free, SLS-free, silicone-free, fragrance free, phthalate-free, and mineral oil-free.

If I Could Only Have One | Vasanti Blush in A Charmed Life Review

Last year, I had a series called "If I Could Only Have One." This referred to if I could only have one of a particular item, which one would I go with. I hadn't completed the series yet, so I am continuing with this post. I actually didn't have "the one" yet for a blush, but now I do! So, of course, I have to share it with you.

I picked up this Vasanti blush in A Charmed Life on a whim at Lisa's Cosmetics Warehouse sale in Markham, Ontario. It was $12.99 but retails for approximately $30. There are 7 grams of product in the compact. There is also a nice mirror inside.

I almost didn't buy it because I already own so many blushes, am I ever glad that I did! I've never owned a blush that could liven up my face in so many ways! If I knew how much I was going to love it, I would have purchased a backup!

This blush imparts the most beautiful glow to my skin and seems to give a lifted look to my cheeks. It's unbelievable! The shade is very natural and kind of hard to describe. I don't look "made up" at all with it on, just the best version of myself. I can actually skip bronzer and highlight with this product. It's like a blush, bronzer, and highlight in one.

The swatch shown is in natural daylight with no filter. You really can't see the beautiful glow until you apply it to your face. I mix the 2 sides, they don't look much different from each other to me anyways. 

I'm not sure how this shade would look on deeper skin tones but if you have fair to medium skin, this shade should work really well for you. 

This product contains lotus, orchid, and evening primrose to nourish the skin. It's also made in Canada.

After trying this blush, I definitely want to try more from this brand! 

Happy almost Friday!

The untinted formula blends seamlessly into the skin, restoring freshness and helping fight visible signs of ageing, while helping to extend make-up wear and disguising skin imperfections. The primer is composed of active natural ingredients, including the native Australian Kakadu Plum, known for its abundant Vitamin C content, rich antioxidants Vitamins A and E, and Green Tea.

-Helps extend make-up wear

BENEFITS:

-Smooths skin without silicones
-Moisturising ingredients
-Antioxidant rich formula
-Blends seamlessly into the skin
-Helps fight visible signs of ageing

My Experience:

I'm a huge fan of natural products. This primer is made with fabulous natural ingredients and even has antioxidants and other anti-aging ingredients. Plus, it's free of synthetics, silicones, and parabens.
The product has a nice light fragrance and has the consistency of a light lotion. I use it all over my face, especially my more oily areas (T-Zone), plus I use it as an eye primer! 

I found that my makeup did indeed last much longer. I also became less oily throughout the day. I did not have any skin irritation or breakouts with this product. I even used it one day after my skincare routine without applying makeup over it, fell asleep with it on and still no breakouts from it (some primers can clog my pores and cause breakouts, not this one!)

This product worked fabulously as an eyeshadow primer too, even though it doesn't say to use it in that way, but I did and it eliminated the need for 2 separate primers.

If you are in the market for a natural primer, I highly recommend giving this very gentle one a try!
