Petunia Skincare Hyaluronic Acid Serum - Review

 Today we're trying Petunia Skincare's hyaluronic acid serum

  I've always touted the benefits of HA serums and I have tried many different brands. The first thing you'll notice is that Petunia Skincare tells exactly what hyaluronic acid is and exactly how it works right on the box. I love that because there isn't any guesswork or searching to find out what it is, what it does, or how it works.




  The back of the box reads:

"Discover younger skin with out Hyaluronic Acid Serum. The secret is its sponge-like properties, which holds in moisture responsible for plumping skin and diminishing fine lines and wrinkles."

  The side of the box reads:

"Hyaluronic acid works by helping the skin retain and pull in moisture from the liquids we drink to the products we put on our skin and works as a "water-reservoir" for skin cells by binding water within the inter-cellular structure of the skin."

  This HA serum has your typical brown bottle with dropper. I really like the pretty blue and white label. I also really like that it has a sealed ring on the lid so you know when the seal has been broken. It's helpful if you have a lot of products and don't know if you've tried something yet. I haven't seen this feature on any other HA serum.

  The other thing that makes this serum pretty unique are the ingredients. On top of the 1.6% hyaluronic acid, it also contains 1.1% MAP (Vitamin C), and 0.5% ferulic acid. In case you're unfamiliar with ferulic acid, its used to treat sun damage, fine lines, and wrinkles.  Petunia Skincare's HA serum is also non-greasy, non-sticky, alcohol free, oil free, paraben free, and promises to not clog pores. It does have a slight scent that I'm not fond of, but it isn't unpleasant or overpowering.




  I think this HA serum is the most effective I've ever used because it absorbs faster than any other I've tried. It goes on easy and smoothly and it completely absorbs within seconds. My skin feels fresher and softer after using it. I tend to use this HA serum during the day because it is quick and easy to reapply throughout the day if my skin is feeling dry.




  Petunia Skincare's HA serum is part of their 3-step regime that also includes their Vitamin C serum and Revitalize eye serum. I haven't tried the Vitamin C serum, but I'll be reviewing the Revitalize Eye Serum soon!

YALMEH Glorifying Facial Cleansing Moisturizer & Rejuvenator - Review

  I haven't heard much about Yalmeh Peerless Beauty before now, but at first try, the brand is blowing me away.The Yalmeh Glorifying Facial Cleansing Moisturizer & Rejuvinator is a really unique product that delivers results in a very unique way. This is a cleansing moisturizer, which means you can massage it onto your dry face and then rinse it off instead of using it on a wet face like typical cleansers.

   This cleansing moisturizer has ingredients that are wonderful for your skin like olive oil, avocado oil, and jojoba oil. It has a light scent, but it doesn't linger on your skin after rinsing. It looks very much like a normal moisturizer and glides on very similarly. Once you rinse it off and dry your face, you really get to see how wonderful it is. It leaves your skin feeling like you've washed, toned, and moisturized all at once.

  My skin felt soft, firm, and felt well moisturized. I was really impressed by how much time I saved since I didn't have to complete additional steps to moisturize and tone. I haven't tried this to remove make-up, so I can't say whether it would be effective or not. I've been using this morning and night in place of my normal face wash, toner, and moisturizer. Honestly, this is working just as good as the three products I usually use. My skin hasn't felt dry or oily/greasy from using it in place of my normal products. If you're looking for something that is great for your skin and saves you time, you've found it.


 If it sounds like something you'd like to try out, you can find it on Amazon or you can check out Yalmeh Peerless Beauty at Yalmeh.com

Body Merry Retinol Surge Moisturizer Review

  I love Body Merry and this retinol moisturizer is great like all their other products. I haven't used it long enough to get any results from the retinol, but it has been a great night cream for me. I have seen a reduction in fine lines, plumper skin, and I am positive that I will keep seeing results the longer I use it.

  The packaging is a simple pump-top bottle that comes with a stopper to prevent leakage during shipping. The label is a really pretty purplish-red color and I love it. It may be my new favorite color. I even love the name "Retinol Surge Moisturizer". It just sounds cool, don't you think?

 This moisturizer has 2.5% retinol, but it also has several soothing and hydrating ingredients like aloe vera, hyaluronic acid, green tea, and shea butter. The extra ingredients help a lot of offset any dryness or irritation that you could normally have from using retinol, as well as giving your skin a little boost themselves.

 This is also thicker than most moisturizers. It leans more toward being a cream than being a lotion. I have been using it as more of a night cream than a day-time moisturizer because of its thickness and because retinol works better at night (fun fact: retinol is a form of vitamin A which degrades in light). If you like thick moisturizers it would work just as well during the day time, but I would recommend introducing it to your skin care regime at night first, just to see how your skin reacts to the retinol.

  Although it has a thick texture and can take a few minutes to absorb, it doesn't leave your skin feeling oily, sticky, or greasy. It moisturizes wonderfully and gives your skin a plump look and a silky feeling. It also has a really light, pleasant scent that doesn't linger long after you apply it so you won't be smelling it all day.



  Bottom line: This is a great moisturizer for day or night. The extra ingredients that Body Merry has included make this a powerhouse moisturizer with or without the retinol. Even though you're not likely to see results from the retinol in under 12 weeks, you'll see results from the hyaluronic acid and shea butter quickly. If you don't like the product and you don't see any results, Body Merry offers a 90-day satisfaction guarantee, so you can get a full refund.


If you want to give it a try, You can find it on Amazon.

Body Merry Stretch Mark & Scar Defense Cream Review

Today I'm reviewing Body Merry's 

Stretch Mark and Scars Defense Cream.

  This stretch mark and scar cream comes in box with a small tub-like container with a twist off top. The great part about the packaging is that it has a foil seal under the lid so when you first open it, you don't end up with a glop of cream on the lid.

   This has a TON of great ingredients to help keep your skin soft, smooth, supple, and moisturized. The ingredient list (copied from the description) includes Organic Cocoa Butter, Shea Butter, Vitamins E + C + B3 + B5, Sunflower Seed Oil, Plant Stem Cells, Organic Hemp Seed Oil, Organic Jojoba Oil, Evening Primrose Oil, Raspberry Seed Oil, Avocado Oil, Grapeseed Oil, Organic Gotu Kala, Algae Extract and Japanese Green Tea Leaf Extract. All of these ingredients are super good for your skin by themselves. Together they're basically like a skin multi-vitamin!

   The cream itself high quality like all Body Merry products. It is very thick and rich. It spreads onto your skin easily and absorbs quickly. You'll immediately notice how soft and silky your skin feels. It really improves your skin texture and leaves it more supple, so it will prevent new stretch marks. I haven't noticed any real improvement or change in my stretch marks or scars, but that doesn't actually bother me. This product is well worth its price as a moisturizing cream. I've used farm more expensive creams that have given me far less. This cream will even soften coarse skin on your elbows, knees, and feet.

  I'm not very fond of the smell. It kind of smells like lotion mixed with menthol, with a little bit of medicine cabinet smell thrown in for good measure. On the upside, the smell doesn't linger on your skin, so you're not going to walk around smelling like a medical facility.



 All in all, this is a great moisturizing cream that will effectively help to prevent new stretch marks. It could possibly fade existing stretch marks and scars, but that hasn't been my experience so far. I'll keep trying it and see what my results are long-term. If you want some seriously moisturized skin that has the best texture you've ever seen, this will not let you down.

If you want to try it out, you can find it on Amazon.

InstaNatural Hyaluronic Acid Serum Review

  Let me start by saying that I love Hyaluronic Acid (H.A.) It is one of the most amazing things produced by your body. If you were a car, it would be the oil in your engine. Its everywhere in your body. They even use H.A. in lip injections.


  I think InstaNatural's H.A. serum is one of the best I've ever tried. It has a light, pleasant smell and is really easy to use. You only need about a pea sized amount for your whole face, so it lasts quite a while. It absorbs quickly and doesn't leave your skin feeling sticky or greasy. I love the blue bottle it comes in, and the dropper is convenient because it makes it very easy to dispense the amount you need perfectly. I really like all the aditional ingredients that are added to help your skin. It has vitamin C, green tea, jojoba oil, aloe, witch hazel, and vitamin E.

 I haven't really noticed any anti-aging benefits from it, but that doesn't mean that it wouldn't show results for someone else. Its worth a shot for the moisturizing benefits alone, anti-aging would just be an added bonus as far as I'm concerned.

  Where I live, it gets really cold in the winter and I don't leave the house much. It makes my skin feel dryer to be stuck indoors all the time, so this H.A. serum is great for me either by itself or as an added boost with your moisturizer. It really helps my skin to retain moisture so if your skin is dry and dehydrated, this would work miracles for you.


  Not only could it work great for you, but InstaNatural backs their products with a Lifetime Satisfaction Money Back Guarantee, no matter where you buy their product. If you're not satisfied, simply contact them and get a full refund.


You can find InstaNatural's Hyaluronic Acid Serum at Amazon.

Hyaluronic Acid Serum by Body Merry Review

Recently, I tried a Hyaluronic Acid Serum by Body Merry and I wanted to provide a review.





 In case you don't know what Hyaluronic Acid is, let me give you a break down. Hyaluronic acid is naturally present in the human body. It is the "cushion" in your joints. Think of it as the oil for your engine, if that helps you picture exactly what it does for you. Its everywhere in your body, eyes, lips, skin.

And its even used in lip injections!

I have to say that I was pretty impressed with this serum. It has great ingredients (like vitamin C and green tea). Used alone, it is probably great, but used with a moisturizer, it is amazing. 

  I spend most of my time indoors in dry air. No matter how much I moisturize, it seems like a few hours go by and my face feels really dried out again. I started using this hyaluronic acid serum before I use my moisturizer and I haven't had any problems since! Its as if it extends the life of my moisturizer. My skin feels and looks amazing all day.

  This serum is easy to get into the dropper, easy to smooth on your skin, and it has a really light smell that doesn't linger on your face. It doesn't take a lot of serum to cover your face, so a bottle lasts a long time. I love the packaging as well.

We all know blue bottles are my favorite ;)

  I did notice my skin had a healthy glow, whether that is from all the wonderful ingredients in this serum or whether it was from my skin staying moisturized, I don't know. I will say that if you live in a dry climate or have skin that just doesn't want to hold moisture, this should really help you.  



  Don't forget Body Merry's products are backed with a 90 Day 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. If you don't like this serum, just contact them and get a full refund. You don't even need to return the bottle!



If you're interested in giving it a shot, or you want to read more about it,  you can find it on Amazon.
