Growing up it was always hard to find the right skincare for my skin. All the products out there were geared towards adults. Learning how to take care of your skin from an early age, can help you maintain that soft, smooth skin that you hope to have as you get older. I was so happy to discover the Bubble Line of skincare.

Bubble, a new skin-care company created “with teens, for teens,” is all about adolescence.  The brand is relatively new, it launched in November 2020. Its extremely teen-centric skincare products were created to shake up the beauty world. The brand is now available at Walmart.

The brand, was created to “balance and clear skin. The products are intended for the teen who has “the occasional breakout,” and not for those with severe acne

The seven-product lineup instead focuses on natural ingredients that attend to the causes or side effects of acne, like willow bark (a balancing agent, which salicylic acid is derived) and rosewater (which acts as a toner).

It’s important for teens to get in the habit of gentle cleansing, moisturizing, and wearing sunscreen. I would definitely stress sun protection early, as we know getting sunburns as a child increases the risk of developing skin cancers later in life.

Bubble doesn’t (yet) have sunscreen, but other than that component, the seven products comprise a full skin-care regimen, aside from that all-important sunscreen step. The roster, includes Fresh Start Gel Cleanser, Break Even Balancing Toner, Slam Dunk Hydrating Moisturizer, Level Up Balancing Moisturizer, Come Clean Detoxifying Clay Mask, Wipe Out Makeup Remover, and Bounce Back Refreshing Toner.

The whole lineup of glossy, pastel-packaged items with rounded corners feels bubbly, but the bubbliest is Bounce Back, a “refreshing toner” that’s meant to be spritzed on whenever you feel like it throughout the day. The formula contains water, rosewater, glycerin, and niacinamide, so it won’t over-stress your skin the way a true toner might.

With teenage budgets in mind, all the formulas are under $19, which makes it totally affordable.

Since not all teens are as educated about skin care Bubble launch an educational portion of their site called Skin School, which aims to teach teens basic skincare tips and ingredient information.

They differ from other brands which cater to the teen market because they deliver quality. Not just pretty packaging.

Jewelry serves as a reminder of what drives you in life. Sophisticated and iconic, the new designs joining the Pandora Signature collection speak volumes about who you are.

I’m so excited to be sharing the new Signature Collection from Pandora with you today. This collection is so elegant and timeless and I couldn’t wait to add some of the pieces into my daily style. If you know me and what I like in terms of jewelry, you know I keep it simple. I like to stick to simple pieces with small, unique touches and this collection hits every mark.

I choose the Signature I-D bangle. I chose to wear the bangle with the open portion facing forward, but you can wear it either way. It is meant to be shown as a true ID bracelet and I do love it that way as well. The design of the Signature I-D bangles is clean yet bold, making them easy to integrate into your personal style.

The Pandora Signature I-D bangles are the perfect staple piece for your jewelry collection. The simplicity of the pieces goes so well with my styling and I love that you can stack them in how many pieces you prefer to create the perfect look.

The bangles in Pandora’s Signature collection are the perfect complement to a neutral blazer, but they are versatile enough to wear with something more casual, like jeans and a tee.

I truly hope you love this collection from Pandora as much as I do. I really think every piece is so beautiful and would make an amazing addition to your jewelry lineup as well as a top-notch gift for birthdays, anniversaries, or the holidays.

Joy Moy® Essential BioBotanical™ Face Elixir & Ultimate BioBotanical™ Face Elixir

Joy Moy took a chance on Tik Tok to save her acupuncture and integrative medicine practice during the pandemic. Her clinic shut down for months.  She was about to launch a brand of organic products, Joy Moy Skincare, which she had been formulating for years then Covid-19 hit.

Before the pandemic, her strategy was getting referrals from doctors and word of mouth. Last April, her then 11-year-old daughter, Jovana suggested she get on TikTok. “I scoffed, again, since she had mentioned in 2019 that I should get on TikTok to make educational videos about acupuncture and TCM [traditional Chinese medicine]. I assumed TikTok was an app for teens and 20-year-olds showing off their dance skills.”

She watched all kinds of videos and despite her reservations, she started creating short-form videos talking about  the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture. Turns out it was a great move. Her skincare line took off. The line includes two great products.

Essential BioBotanical™ Face Elixir aids in bringing back a radiant glow with Coconut Monoi, a luxurious, non-greasy formula containing Tahitian gardenias for superior skin-protecting properties with a naturally divine scent.

Ultimate BioBotanical™ Face Elixir aids in bringing back a radiant glow with Black Cumin Seed – known as “The Miracle Seed” – which revitalizes the appearance of tired, dull skin, particularly when applied prior to vital overnight skin cell regeneration.

These are perfect products to add to your skincare routine.
