DefenAge 3D Eye Radiance Cream: Clinically-Tested Luxury Skincare
For more than two months, my favorite eye cream of the past few years, Belif Moisturizing Eye Bomb, has been out of stock, out of stock on the Belif website, at Sephora and at Ulta. I don’t know if it has to do with the Coronavis in South Korea, but it seems to be the …
End of March Weekly Roundup from the Beauty Spotlight Team
Happy Saturday! I hope you are well, and finding things at home to keep you busy. Friday was a sunny, early spring day in the high 50s, so I spent the afternoon raking my lawn and gardens. My perennials are showing up almost a month early this year. It’s been a strange year so far …
No Choice But to Make My Own Hand Sanitizer
I was late to the party. I thought I had some hand sanitizer at home already. By the time I tried to find it at local stores, it was long sold out. By the time I tried to order it online, it was gone. Now you can order some on Amazon, but it won’t be …
Sale Alerts: PRAI, StriVectin and BioDerma
Hi friends, hope you’re hanging in there and finding things to keep you occupied at or near home! Last night when I was preparing a salad to go with my dinner, I managed to take part of my index finger on my left (dominant) hand off. It bled for hours, and I probably could have …
Derma E Vitamin C Collection: Cleansing Paste and Concentrated Serum

I’m not sure when Cold Plasma Plus Sub D launched, but “Plus” is the newest version of the Cold Plasma Sub D Neck …
Elisire Ambre Nomade: My Sample from Scentbird
I’ve been a subscriber to the monthly fragrance subscription, Scentbird, for many years now, but I haven’t gotten a sample every month for ages. I have set my subscription to every 3 months at this point. I’ve had more misses than hits with Scentbird, but in spite of that I have discovered some fragrances I …
Ulta Spring 21 Days of Beauty
First, you may have gotten an email from Sephora announcing that they are closing their physical stores to help protect their employees and prevent the spread of the Covid-19.
