I usually make my own masks so I can control the ingredients, but this looked so tempting I just had to try it. I have really sensitive skin and most store-bought mud masks burn like hell, but this one (despite looking heavy) doesn't feel heavy. It's soothing on my skin as it gently tightens and repairs. Afterwards, my skin feels soft and smoother for days.
Also, it smells like Turkish Delight without the cavities. I use it once a week paired with a relaxing bath. I could probably reduce it to twice a month or once a month, but it's just so rewarding to use for 10 minutes.
It comes in 6 full ounces and one time use packs. I went with the 6 oz because it was better value for money.

I picked this up at Target when I was down south. It's easily the oddest toner I have ever used. It smells nice, it feels nice when you put it on. You apply it with a cotton pad or ball upwards on your clean face and neck. While it feels light going on, it leaves your skin feeling kind of sticky and thick throughout the day. It is after all a bit of an oil heavy toner.
Maybe this product needs to be repackaged as a night -time face blend or for winter use only. It feels uncomfortable if used on a humid day.

I love this product. I've been using it for a few years now and regularly recommend it to all my professional friends who permanently suffer from overtired eyes with dark circles. It's simple to apply. I like to use the brush to dot it on particular problem spots and then blend with my fingers or a sponge.
It goes on light and if you're having a real bad eye day, it layers really well. Sometimes I put it under my foundation, sometimes over, sometimes on its own. It's such a versatile little treasurer and I've actually bought multiple so I can make sure I have one at home, one in my purse and one in my go bag.

I was pretty excited to try this product but found the cost a bit too self-indulgent. But when it went on sale, I picked some up and gave it a try - after doing a patch test, of course.
I followed the directions and applied the product under my eye and brow bone. It went on nice and light and reduced the dark circles under my eyes without the need for any additional makeup. It definitely gave me a brighter, more awake look which was exactly what I was going for.
As it has bee sting venom in it, I'm a bit wary of using it on a daily basis but I'm happy with it as my occasional eye plumper for now.

I bought these to try out after trying out Knixwear's most comfortable bras and undies (which I love). The leak-proof panties are awesome in a pinch, and real tight, in a comforting way, around the thigh holes. They are very comfortable to wear, but when examining them out of the box, I wondered if the built-in pad would actually provide protection at the beginning of the month.
The answer is sort-of. I wore these to several wedding events while on my period and I was nervous the whole time. The instructions when you purchase say they can hold up to two tampons worth of fluid. The first and second day there was definite leakage out the back (and this was with a tampon in) and a little out the sides. I tried them out on a very light day and came to the conclusion that these are great in a pinch or great when you're spotting or great in combination with the tampons of your choice, but probably shouldn't be trusted for the first few days of your period if you have a heavy flow. This was actually really disappointing to learn because when they are working properly, they are AHMAZING.
Looking forward to knix's next iteration, with an expanded and more absorbent coverage zone ie. beyond the gusset. xx
