Update on the L'Oreal Youth Code skin care... | Gather

I have been trying out the New L'Oreal Youth Code skin care system that I received from the Vogue Influencer network recently, as some of you know, and now that I could try it out for a while I have some first thoughts on it .

Pros

L'Oreal Youth Code makes for an awesome night routine ,I use it at night because it has no SPF in it (see cons below)

L'Oreal youth products smell wonderful and for me provide a spa like experience because of the fresh lemon like sent , it very calming .

These products work well together ,they are very easy to use

Hydrates very well all through the night.

my skin looks great in the morning very fresh .

very pretty packaging that looks very professional .

I love the slanted metal applicator on the eye cream , it makes for easy application and is nice and cooling

CONS

The L'Oreal Youth Code day /night cream does not have a sunscreen

I have had some problem with pilling or flake off if you try and apply a product over the cream and serum- This is why I'm using it as night routine because even my regular sunscreen or my foundation will cause it to pill or flake off . Since I cant go anywhere with out some sunblock or sunscreen on in Florida I am only using it in my nightly routine .

OK Updating this info about the pilling and flaking I found a sunscreen that does work well with L'Oreal youth code .I had tried to use my tinted moisturizer from olay with this but that caused pilling than I tried other olay sunscreens to no luck but I found 2 that work well one is aveeno sunscreen for the face and the other is the neutrogena liquid sunblock . both of these do not cause any flaking . I also found out that using a mineral makeup over the youth code also did well . I'm not sure about other foundations or tints because I can only test what I have but at least I can wear it during the day now .

Now. All that being said, I do love the way it works overnight- I use the serum and than the cream and finish with the eye cream . In the morning my face really looks nice , I have no baggy sleep eyes and my skin looks really fresh and firm like I had a overnight facial . I was actually surprised that I could see such a difference in the morning and I had to do a double take because in the morning my face is usually a bit saggy and the tone is off or sallow and my pores seem large but not so while using these 3 products . My skin wakes up as fresh as a daisy .

yesterday I posted a video review of the neutrogena clinical that Im trying for bzzagent . I hope you have some time to see it , I know some of you saw my before video and I wanted to see if you saw any difference between them . I can tell you that I can feel a difference. My face feels tighter in a lot of places. I only wish it did better at getting rid of age spots . anyway here is a link right to the video if you want to check it out , If its any consolation , I look as goofy as always :)

Ok in other stuff . Scott is still having a lot of stomach problems and is back on the antibiotic for another round . Im better news , Scott had that appointment with the IRS . they made him bring in all our bills and everything so they could calculate a new payment for us . They had the stuff for a few days and then the lady calls and says that because of our poverty the IRS is not able to collect any money from us at this time . YAY ! This will be reevaluated sometime in the future if Scott ever starts making money again but for now we don't have to worry about them .

So far last week was really good for freebies coming in here is a list of some of the free stuff I got .
Copenhagen pocket tool -this is a very nice pocket knife it even has a saw and a screwdriver .
1 nice little change purse with some first aid products inside .

free coupon for philly cream cheese in the 4 pack
free coupon good for 1 bottle of vitamin water
free coupon for 1 free pack of Borden cheese
free coupon for a free box of Orville Redenbacher popcorn
free coupon for a free box of Kashi cereal yum this stuff is fantastic I like the blueberry crunch .
free coupon got yo plait Greek yogurt along with 10 45 cents off each tub coupons .
This stuff is hard to find in any flavour so I have not tried it yet .
I also won a few of books through one of the insiders groups I belong to they have not got here yet .
I got another uniball pen , Im not sure why they send another one but Im happy .
sample of tide laundry soap
I got a sample of a new fancy energy bar called zone perfect indulgence . WOW are these good I mean like candy bar good . I tried the caramel toffee .

I ordered a bunch of freebies this week and I sure hope they come in because some are really good . I still have not got the spray cleaner from some monkey company lol .

Im going to be putting in the blog products that I try and what I think of them once a month so far this month Ive tried

Chocolate cheerios ! Very tasty and good for you . I really like these because I cant eat to much chocolate with out getting a migraine so since these taste like chocolate yet do not give me a headache Im loving them .
Oreo Cakesters . if you have not tried these please do they are moist and delicious very very good and portion controlled and portable .I do not have any problem getting headaches from these either so that 2 chocolate thing I can snack on
I really also like Nabisco 100 calorie packs mister salty pretzels very good and portion controlled . I only wish they were a bit less crunchy because I worry about my teeth with over crunchy things , but they are really good .
Digiorno 100 calorie pizzas this is a very tasty pizza for as low a calorie count it has its a great lite snack, but don't think its going to be like eating a regular digiorno it is diet food after all .
I finely found a hair color that dose not look fake or to harsh Im using perfect 10 by Nice and easy its the very best hair color Ive ever used and it cover gray very well but keeps your hair very shiny I love it ( I did not even get a trial or sample of this )o I picked it up when it was on sale and I happened to print a 2.00 off coupon -other hair colors were turning my hair to straw and really to harsh a dark color . Im using the shade medium golden brown and it perfect !!! I am going to try and stick with this brand for as long as I can because it really is the better hair color for me .

If you are board and looking for some Really really good games , I have recommendations for you . My favorite casual games for the month of march are

Vampireville -If you like Keanu Reeves the character in the game looks like him and acts like him its really a hoot -Im thinking they got the idea for Vampireville after watching both Bill and Teds adventures and Bram stokers Dracula its funny yet deals with a castle full of vampires . its a long game too , took me a while .
http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/7612/vampireville/index.html

Penny dreadful Sweeney Todd - very cool game -also very funny and a great afternoon killer . this one is a bit short not to bad and really should win some kind of award . very challenging game for sure
http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/7070/penny-dreadfuls-sweeney-todd/index.html

Dark Parables -the curse of Brier Rose - this is a stunningly beautiful Investigative hidden object game . Its done really well and has a lot of different mini games that are a lot of fun . based on the story of sleeping beauty yet spooky and clever.
http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/7719/dark-parables-curse-of-the-briar-rose/index.html

Treasure seekers follow the ghosts - this is a really nice IHOG ( investigative hidden object game) I really liked it but thought it was on the short side . however its a series and I had played the other games so I just had to try this new one . its fun and challenging , a lot of fun
http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/7607/treasure-seekers-follow-the-ghosts/index.html

The Lost mysteries of 221B baker street Sherlock Holmes game with many many levels . this is really getting your moneys worth and has great re playability .
http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/7675/the-lost-cases-of-221b-baker-st/index.html

Bigfish has a promo deal going on for members of the game club -any regular game can be bought for 4.99 using code SPRINGFRVER now thats a deal and if you are in the club you know that with every 6 games you buy you get one free on the punch card . I don't personally think the collectors editions are worth the bigger price tag but they do give you 3 punches on the punch card instead of only one . I have never bothered with the expensive games and just wait till the reg version comes out a few weeks later .
Thanks for reading my blog !!!!

Here is wishing everyone a great and productive week with all of us having many samples and goodies in our mail .
