Being a mom with effortlessly healthy-looking skin is ideal for me, and I bet all moms out there would agree with this thought, even though it’s hard to achieve in real life. But you can do it by choosing and using the right skincare products that will help penetrate your skin and target specific concerns.
In this post, I choose fifteen clean skincare sets focusing on anti-ageing and hydrating that would help bring skin back to its youthful days.
I would use all of the items myself and give my mother on mother’s day and any occasions. The best part it’s starting at $26.
Products ranked by the most inexpensive to the high-priced!
Let’s get shopping, shall we?
ONE
I love cocokind products, and this set is a must to achieve soft and hydrated skin. The sake ofextract–Japanese fermented rice wine is rich in prebiotic sugars and enzymes to smooth and support the skin’s microbiome. Red clay, upcycled coffee grounds, and prebiotic chicory balance the skin microbiome and gently exfoliates skin to leave it soft and smooth.
This is one of the sets that you can visibly see the result after the first use. A trio to visibly firm, lift & reduce the look of wrinkles your mother would love to receive.
I have been a big fan of this product for over fifteen years, and I still LOVE it. This set would be a great gift set to add to any mom’s skincare collection. The pure and lightweight water formula decreases the appearance of spots, reduces wrinkles, refines skin texture, improves firmness and elasticity, and dramatically boosts radiance.
If you are into vegan skincare products but haven’t heard of any vegan collagen, it’s now the end of the search as this skincare set is the set you are looking for! Including serum, face mask, facial cleanser and body cream that your mother would appreciate this head to toe clean and vegan skincare gift set this Mother’s Day!
Give me some more vegan skincare goodies! This complete skincare routine takes care of all of your skin’s needs with clean and effective ingredients like their signature vegan probiotics, sourced from the highest mountains in Korea, and vitamin-rich prickly pear extract. Make your complexion glow on a whole new level!
Get smooth and plump skin from face to body with this clean and vegan skincare set by From Plants Beauty. If you are on a hunt for a plant-derived, non-chemical retinol alternative that will give your skin that natural glow, I recommend getting this set. My husband and I are using this set every day, and we can’t say enough how much we love all the products we formulated. Comes with a clear quartz roller and a 100% organic lightweight body oil. Anyone would love this clean skincare gift set!
I love this anti-ageing set a lot! With their well-known Squalane line in one set, you wouldn’t want to miss this valuable skincare treasure. It will make a perfect gift for any mom.
Smooth & firm the look of wrinkles with clean & clinically proven actives like retinol-alternatives, peptides & probiotic extracts. Your mom will thank you for that!
Your skin needs superfood too, and this skincare set is all about that! In this set, the Superfood Facial Oil is one of my favourite face oils-formulated with nine antioxidant-rich Superfoods to reveal a healthy-looking glow.
Love me some La Mer! This Mini Miracle Broth™ Glow Collection is packed with mini essentials of the label’s bestsellers; the limited-edition bunch harnesses the power of the brand’s sea-inspired Miracle Broth™ elixir.
Please take me back to South Korea for more Sulwhasoo shopping! My oh my, I love that they came out with a perfect gift set that will be your mother’s new favourite K-Beauty products. This is a limited-edition set featuring full- and travel-size jars of Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Cream, plus other skincare favourites! Get it before it’s gone!

This set includes: Regenerating Cleanser DLX, Resurfacing Mask DLX, Hydrating Floral Essence DLX, Elixir Vitae DLX, Boosted Contouring Serum DLX, Elixir Vitae Eye Serum PKT x3, Creme Riche DLX, Medium Collapsible Box, Mask Brush, and Insert Card.

I hope you love all of the products I handpicked for you.
It’s almost Valentine’s Day and all I’m thinking about are roses. I normally don’t like any specific type of flowers accept the one I really love, peonies. They are absolutely my fave.
Since Valentine’s Day is around the corner and the most famous flowers for this occasion is rose. I thought why not talk about a few rose beauty products that I’m currently loving and have enjoyed using them these day. I want to use this special occasion to share some rose-love with you.
Before I show you what are in my rose beauty and skincare collection, let’s talk about the benefits of rose for a little. You might already know that rose helps rejuvenate and replenish skin that’s why a lot of products on the market now incorporate rose as an ingredient.
Rose has antioxidants and antibacterial properties that can help regenerate skin tissue and heal scars. Rose water helps to hydrate, moisturize and maintain its PH balance in your skin. It also helps fight free radicals.
The scent of roses can also help lift up your emotion if you are feeling down.
Now, at my house we always pick up roses and I have realized that every time we have flowers around the house they really pick up everyone’s mood. I encourage you to have flowers around your place to make your space more lively and for your emotional wellbeing.
Those are some benefits of the rose. There are still more, just easily search on Google you will find a tons of them
By the way, at the end of this post, I’m announcing the winner of our #GOODVIBESGIFTING contest of January 2019. Check it out if you are one of the 6 winners who will receive a $25 Starbucks gift card and one surprise gift from me. 🙂
If you’re ready let’s get into my mini reviews on each of my favorite rose beauty and skincare products.
What I like about this mask is that it is so refreshing every time I use it. My skin turns out super soft and smooth. I love that the scent is not over powerful, it’s a beautiful rose scent. The texture of this mask is jelly-like and very easy to apply. No mess, no drip while using it.
The fun part of this mask is that you can refrigerate it and use it as an overnight mask as well. It’s one of my favorite face masks I tried recently.
I have a blog post about my favorite face masks for all concerns if you would like to check it out.
Pixi by Petra Rose Collection
I had a chance to try the whole rose collection of Pixi by Petra and have been loving these four products so far.
This rose oil, I’m on bottle number 3. I love how quick this oil absorb into skin. I don’t feel too oily after applying this oil on. This oil gives a healthy glow look to my skin and moistens up my skin very well. It has a light rose scent which I like because it’s good when layering more rose products on.
This essence caught my eyes because of the cuteness of the tube and the product’s texture. I wasn’t sure what it was at first but after trying it I’m super pleased with the results.
It’s super weightless and absorbs very fast into my skin. It feels like I’m applying water on my face, that’s how weightless it is.
This serum essence helps hydrate, refine and soften skin.
I have been using face tonic for quite sometime and this one is my new favorite. I guess I have to give credit to Pixi by Petra that came out with products that provide comfort to skin.
This tonic is very gentle and again quick to absorb into my skin just like the other products I mentioned earlier. The beauty benefits of this rose tonic is to help with skin tone improvement, brightening, moisturizing and color correction.
My acne scares and blemishes on my face are starting to clear out slowly after using this tonic for about 2 weeks.
I’m into face mists lately and this one is so divine even my husband likes to use it. It’s very soothing when spraying onto my face. It also helps moisturize and hydrate your skin.
It’s like you are spraying rose water on your face without the oily affect afterwards. If you’re looking for a glowy and to illuminate your skin, I do not recommend using this mist because you will only get a natural looking glow from this product.
What I like the most about face mist is that you can apply it anytime you’d like.
My oh mind! This highlighting luminous powder is so gorgeous! I’m absolutely in love with the rose design. It gives such a beautiful glow once you apply a small amount to the top of your cheekbones, center of your chin, bridge of your nose, and center of your forehead.
I love that I can use it dry or damp for an intense look. It doesn’t make my skin feel and look cakey at all.
I was afraid to use it at first because it’s too pretty and I did not want to ruin the beauty of it. But now I just can’t stop using this highlighter.
The only down side about this product is the high price point ($60), but it’s totally worthy it. 🙂
This perfume is giving me a sense of mature and proper. It’s a classic and elegant rose scent that represent more spiciness than sweetness of the typical rose perfumes.
I love it for a formal event or a romantic date night but not for a girls night out nor a family get together.
The price of this perfume is quite high ($235), so you have to make sure that you love it before deciding to purchase.
If you want a shimmery and glowing skin, you might want to give this body oil a try. It smells just like fresh roses but not over powering.
Not only do I love the glow about this product but I also love that it really helps to hydrate my skin and doesn’t make my skin feel super sticky nor oily.
Overall I really love this product and will be repurchasing it. I just wish that the price would be lower or the amount would be more for the body oil.
This roller is by far the cheapest one from a well-known brand I saw on the market not including the ones that you can buy from amazon.
I have been using face roller for over 6 months now and have been loving the feel and results it gives to my skin. I have different types of stones, white jade, black jade, amethyst (I broke it the other day!) and this rose quartz one.
What I love about them is that they are from nature, won’t harm your skin and have specific healing powers and meanings behind them.
For skin benefits, the stone helps depuff and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. It supports blood circulation. I see my pores are getting smaller as well.
My husband and I are switching to an aluminum-free deodorants since last year and this one is our favorite.
It doesn’t smell like roses but it does smell pleasant. It doesn’t stain on cloths and it’s non-sticky which make us love using it. My underarm area feels very comfortable and dry all day.
If you are a first time user of a non aluminum deodorant, you might want to put it on every few hours just to make sure you won’t stink others! LOL! You will need sometime to adjust and let your body detox all the bad before your underarm area gets used to a chemical free product.
The one I have here is the Vanilla + Air for Creativity: awaken the mind and unleash your creative energy with violet, rose, and vanilla.
Those are all of my rose faves at the moment. If you’re looking to buy rose products for yourself or gifting it this Valentine’s Day, don’t hesitate to check some of this products out.

Let’s talk about my first impressions after I smelt each of the perfumes, all I had in my mind was CLEAN! All of these scents are so light, soft and clean. I can just feel that they won’t harm your body.
With the scents being very light, you can layer them together to create your own perfect scent or to match it with your mood of the day. This is one of the fun things I like about these perfumes.
I have to let you know first that I’m still using my normal perfumes but after discovering this brand, I’m going to try to cut back on all of my usual and give Skylar‘s perfume an everyday go-to.

Adding 3 new New Cruelty Free & Vegan Skincare products from Go To Skincare to my clean beauty collection so I wanted to share my first impression and what I like about them with you.
Since I started using cruelty free vegan skincare products I am very pleased with how my skin has changed in terms of no breakouts and more even skin tone without applying any harsh chemical ingredients on my skin.
I’ve received these 3 products from Go-To Skincare, complimentary to share my thoughts on Instagram, cleanser, face oil and lip balm. Instead of sharing only on Instagram, I decided to post them here as well to give you a more in-depth opinion on each of the products.
Before we get right into it, if you haven’t already enter to win a $800 Sephora Gift Card, feel free to enter at the end of this post!
Now, let’s talk about Go To Skincare. First off I really love their overall brand look and feel. It’s so fun, fresh and clean. All of their packagings are so cute as well and that was the first reason that attracted me to wanting to try their products.
I’m going to talk about the cleanser first, then face oil and lastly lip balm. If you’re ready, let’s get right into it.
This Properly Clean cleanser is a gentle mousse cleanser. It’s gentle enough for sensitive or blemish-prone skin, nourishing enough for dry skin, and balanced enough for oily skin. It is vegan, cruelty-free, and formulated without gluten, PEGs, GMOs, mineral oils, petrolatum, and synthetic colors. Good for all skin types.
What I like about this cleanser is that it won’t dry out my skin. I love the lightweight and soft texture of the mousse. The scent is so fresh. I first thought it would have a fruity scent because of it’s package. But the scent reminded me of green juice with a hint of herbs. It’s a good fresh smell. This cleanser rinses of very easily and after using this cleanser, right away my skin feels so soft and hydrated.
Talking about face oils (again!), this Face Hero face oil has to be the 10th one that I tried in the past month. This oil features 10 potent, purposefully selected plant and nut oils, Face Hero boasts a bucket load of essential fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants, as well as anti-inflammatory properties. It claims to help hydrate, revive, brighten and insure your face against fine lines, dark spots, dryness and aging inflammation.
My first impression of this oil are that it’s very rich and condense. I was hesitant to try at first because I thought that it would stay on my face and won’t absorb into my skin like other face oils I’ve tried. But I was wrong. Even though it’s a very rich and condense oil, it still absorbs well.
What I like about this face oil is that it leaves my skin hydrated all day and night. As I mentioned earlier that it’s super rich and a little slow to absorbing but it dose its job to moisten deep into your skin. To help speed up the absorption process, I recommend using the face roller like this one to help after applying the oil. One last thing I love is that this oil also adds a healthy glow to my skin.
The Lips! A Super Balm lip balm is a lot different than other lip balms on the market. It’s formulated with ultra medical grade lanolin, nourishing apricot kernel, avocado, almond, evening primrose, vitamin E and jojoba oils, as well as beeswax and soothing calendula and shea butter. All the good stuff!
When I first tried it, I felt like I’m putting Vaseline on but with light fruity scents which I really like.
What I like about this lip balm is that it really keeps my lips super hydrated and I don’t need to keep applying the lip balm on several times a day. Well, I sometimes use it twice if I’m eating or talking too much! 🙂 I love using it at night, it lasts all night and leaves my lips soft and hydrated when I wake up. Another thing I like about this lip balm is that I can use it as a gloss over my tint lipstick. It gives a very pretty shine.
Hope you find this post helpful before you decide to give these Go-To Skincare products a try.

Today I have another clean holiday gift guide for those who seek for clean and cruelty-free skincare products to gift this year. All of these clean, cruelty-free skincare products are my favorites that I’ve been using on a daily basis. There are 11 items, starting from cleaner to an overnight mask.
Again, I’m loving all of them but I’m not going to get into to much details to help save you some holiday shopping time. I will leave a short reason why I love each product the most below.
I hope you find the perfect gift for you and for your loved ones.
Let’s get right into it, shall we?
OSEA Ocean Cleansing Milk
This cleanser is very gentle and soothing. I love the creamy texture and how it makes my skin feel so soft and clean. Most of the ingredients are organic. Perfect gift for people who have sensitive skin.
Biossance Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil
One of my favorite face oils that helps reduce my acne scars. This face oil also makes my skin brighter and clearer.
Pai Skincare Chamomile and Rosehip Calming Day Cream
Very soothing and calming day cream that hydrates my skin and leaves it super soft for hours. Absorbs quickly with no irritation.
This is my all time favorite eye cream that helps reduce puffiness and dark under eyes. My husband and I have already gone through 3 tubes and we can’t live without it. My father in law is loving it too. This is definitely a perfect gift for those who have under eye issues.
Well Done Crystal Facial Roller
Jade facial roller helps to stimulate collagen production. I use it day and night after applying my face oils and moisturizers. It’s very cold to the touch which helps diminish the look of my pores.
Biossance Squalane + Mineral SPF 45
This is a lightweight, and non-greasy mineral sunscreen lotion that helps even skintone. I use it as a makeup base and it helps my makeup go on smoothly.
Dr Roebuck’s Bondi Hydrating Mist
I love the fruity scent of this mist. The pump is very easy to use and sprays a lot of mist out at once. I use it every time I feel my skin starting to turn dehydrated during the day. Absolutely love everything about this hydrating mist.
100% Pure Multi-Vitamin + Antioxidants Potent PM Serum
This serum absorbs very quickly and feels so light on the skin. I love the refreshing citrus scent of this serum. It helps brighten an uneven skin tone. It’s also gentle enough to use around your eyes.
100% Pure Retinol Restorative Overnight Balm
Waking up with a soft, smooth and supple skin after using this overnight balm. Just a heads up though, you might feel weird and wonder how can you go to sleep with this overnight balm on because of the rich oily balm effect. But trust me, if you give it a try for one night, you will want to use it every night. This will be a perfect gift for those who are a fan of retinol and love to have younger looking skin.
Overtime Mask – Summer Fridays
Love the two in one benefits of this mask. Not only is it a mask but it’s also an exfoliator. This pumpkin mask is a lot more gentle than most of the pumpkin masks on the market. I use it once a week and every time it leaves my skin very soft and clean. This is a perfect holiday mask. I have a blog post about “Best Face Masks for All Skin Problems” that includes a full review of this overtime mask, feel free to check it out.
Tatcha Luminous Deep Hydration Revitalizing Eye Mask
My under eyes area are looking much brighter and hydrated. I was skeptical to try this eye mask at first as I had heard some reviews about how hard it is to apply. But after experiencing the process for myself, there’s no such thing as ‘hard to apply’ for this eye mask. It was simple and quick to apply and only 15 minutes of your day will make your under eyes smoother and supple.
