Burts Bees Skin Care

[this is not an advert. I was not sponsored or endorsed by Burts Bees in any way. All of these products were bought with my own money]

Onto a happier subject!

So i bought a bunch of new skincare!

My skin used to be TERRIBLE!

i had acne everywhere and after the zit would go away I'd be left with these FUGLY marks of darker pigmentation. I guess i'm lucky i don't have a crater face though.

I tried EVERYTHING to get my skin to calm down!


  • Washing my face with only Clean and Clear, which just dried my skin out and made my acne worse.
  • Only Neutrogena products same results as above
  • Only Ivory soap.
  • "Black skin care" that shits a joke!
  • Noxzema
  • Exfoliating daily
The last two worked! with a steady and basic regimine of Noxzema twice a day and exfoliating with St. Ives apricot scrub 4 times a week, my skin cleared up. 
Its still not 100% but WAY better than it was.
However, I HATE that the good noxzema comes in a tub. Its REALLY unhygienic; i mean do you know whats on your hands???

So after I finished off my last tub of  Noxzy i decided to try something new for my skin.

I went with:



Ive heard really good things about their skincare and ive been using their lip balms for a while so i figured they were worth trying.

so i basically redid my entire skincare system:

I got the Daily Radiance Facial Cleanser w/ Royal Jelly  for  my everyday  cleansing; its not heavy, smells good and takes off a majority of my makeup!


 AND its 99% natural!


For my exfoliation needs i got the Peach and Willowbark Deep Pore Scrub.


it leaves my face feelin like a babys ass! and its 100% natural!


Now im not a huge fan of toner since it tends to dry my skin out, but sometimes when the weathers changing my face gets super oily and i HAVE to tone, so i picked up the



99.5% natural 
and one of the best toners i have EVER used.
it doesnt leave my face feeling tight or smelling all...chemmically like most other acne products.



the last thing i got was some makeup remover/cleansing towelettes because i am notorious for passing out in my bed (or some random strangers..but more on that later) after a night of drinking.

and i HATE waking up with last nights mascara crusting my eyelids together and my false eyelash on some guys chest..(yeah thats a weird situation) so i actually bought two of these and i keep one in my bag and one on my desk by my bed.

So now i have no excuse to fall asleep with makeup on!

and they actually work really well! one towelette removes my full face of makeup!

and 99.1% natural too!!!



the only thing i didnt change was my moisturizer because i still have a 3/4 full bottle of Aveeno Positively Radiant moisturizer w/ spf. 

Good stuff as well.

But once im out of it, im most def gonna go back and get some burts bees day cream and night cream.

im thinkin the  Radiance day cream w/ spf 15 for my everyday and the Beeswax moisturizing night cream for night.

GOD I LOVE SKINCARE!!!!!
