Arianna

when life gives you lemons you make a skin care product out of it. It was a weird intro anyway this is a really great serum you guys have been using it for a while now and the packaging is so luxurious source of all but stopped of the formula right it has significantly reduced my oil production is super super hydrating and it is strong so I'd say that this is one of those products that it's easy to overuse but it works really fast at least that was my experience so as the more I use it the less frequently I use is actually so now I'm down to like three times a week and I feel like this is just a nice go to product for when I feel like my skin needs to hydration and it's producing too much oil so yeah and

Anjola Laoye

Sylvia 

so how with me by when life gives you lemons this is the oil Valance booster and I really really love this one especially right now it's for me and I'm having some breakouts over here over here over here so it's perfect for my night routine so I recently learned you don't put it directly to your face you make some put some drops it's very sick you just put some drops in your hands and then put in your face cuz you don't want that to grab bacteria if you put it to your face so have no fragrance which I love that and just let it dry sink it in and wait for better results

Paola Chirinos

hi Beauty so I redeemed the lemons when life gives you lemons booster oil or oil balance booster it is actually according to the box for acne-prone I don't have acne prone skin and it's meant to control or without overdrive in your face and also can be used as a primer so that was my main reason for redeeming it is to be used as a primer I did use it under my makeup today and I actually like it it's a little goes a long way but I think I used a little bit too much but I just wanted to test out the product to see how it works out and stuff my face feels so goodhyaluronic acid is also in this product and so far so good there's no complaints it's sticky so that it clings to the foundation and says the face beautifully.

it smells so I already posted a like first in preparation of this product but I want to come back again and sits beat the heat week and I did my makeup look today it's actually after 11/11 hours I've been wearing this makeup but I use this as my primer and I already found this of my holy Grill primer makes my makeup last throughout the day I am a very very or Haley girl but this kind of makes it so I'm not as oily and I do want the oil to come through and my skin to breathe so what when life gives you lemons there are they have skin care benefits in it so this kind of like controls the oil in a way instead of me looking super super like slick so I like that so much and it makes my makeup last so I highly recommend it's become a Holy Grail even though I got it from a drop they also gifted me another went over

okay so I am trying out the when life gives you lemons boil balance booster which is a serum / kind of like a primer when I get to them is all about using infusing skincare into makeup I would take the kids really cool that's like what their Foundation is all about and this is the step before that so it's really helpful for like skin looks like super cute little frosted glass bottle behind the scenes is that I did I just review 5 seconds ago but I was covering my mic but yes I really like this product I think it's like it has it's a gorgeous little tacky texture which is great if you're going to put makeup on top of it and it has like a thick consistency like goopy consistency but like can you tell the glow

Pittsburgh Raceway this is the oil balance booster from when life gives you lemons so I've never heard of this brand until I saw it on super great but it looks super nice I really like the packaging of the super heavy feels nice the glass on it looks really nice as well so for some questions I just used it this morning it is really sticky which to be fair they do say on their website it's a very very biscuits Jerome like saying you only need a tiny little bit and its lips all over your face on 64 Lee well so I thought I was a pretty good primer but I don't know if I like see the effect in terms of light preventing oil production right now but to be absolutely fair I did put on more of a glowy face today so I'm definitely going to you know like see how this works when I do more before facing foundation and modify things like today I don't have any foundation on just a little bit concealer so I don't see think I'm seeing it as well I'll definitely update as I use it more

and the next package for this day it is a skincare product and Kira have those that I see a lot. It is through when life gives you lemons and it is a trial balance booster for acne and a half how do I make acid and marrying a gay I love this painting is so cute so it says that it is a boosting Serum with power Marine active that tone sound except excessive oil without drying your skin this is their packaging it feels so heavy and so fancy and I just love that it is so simple and let's smell it to seeso Timmy has a very neutral Sans it isn't like to overwhelming so once I get to use this I will do an update or review

Elia

so I just test it out this lemons oil balance booster for the first time and the dropper works pretty well it's a little thicker than I thought it was going to be but once you get the hang of dropping off one to two drops his side and then. Did cover my whole face they say they used sparingly a little goes a long way after so it was pretty easiest move it all over my face I did it all over because I am oily all over I don't have combination it's literally everywhere and they did say it's two key and you know what it isI'm not sure I would wear it alone just because the texture I don't I don't know if that would bug me but they I used moisturizer first and then this so maybe tomorrow I'll do like no make-up and then reverse it so that I do this first and then moisturizer and see if that

I super great I wanted to come out here to talk about when life gives you lemons their oil balance booster I use as a primer I think it's good for acne-prone skin I've been using it for a week and it actually like how it performs underneath my makeup I have it on today I didn't do a demo but I have about two little drops to the little bit goes a long way let me show you the consistency so it's a little slimy it's unscented but since there's like Marine hyaluronics I think in it smells kind of like you know the sea but it goes away really fast it's very subtleand it just kind of goes as get in it it dries like a mat sticky which is great textures for my for my makeup to a grip onto I do like it. I'm excited to try it with our foundation once I get it shipped to me so I hope this helps

I didn't get a chance to redeem of Primal which is going to modify your oily skin you have to redeem it and that's what I did when life gives you lemons oil ballet shoes that was being trapped and this is for acne with Marine algae and hyaluronic acid when you getting that much hydration and flight mode why not redeem it such a beautiful pretty bottle and a Beyonce video about it and use it so it's kind of aand I think it's going to be very good to use it on my makeup and it's not going to make my makeup crack because even on the other primers I can see my makeup cracking around my mouth area and 90's on where it is always so let's use this
