Mannatech Optimal Skin Care System


I am lucky enough not to have too much trouble with acne. When I'm going through a time where my face is breaking out all over, I try to find skin products that are light, but still get the job done. Mannatech Optimal Skin Care System fits all the requirements. It's super pure water based formula helps hydrate dry skin and not irritate sensitive skin.

Product description:

Water, a basic component of all existence, soothes, invigorates, replenishes and revitalizes. Essential to life, water delivers valuable nutrients throughout our systems. Water is also essential to more youthful-looking, irresistible skin. Formulated in Japan, the world’s leading skin care market, the Optimal Skin Care System’s essential ingredient is delicately purified water.

Filtered through miles of limestone formations, the legendary water of Asia’s Hunza Valley has been celebrated over the centuries for its ability to help support heath, vitality and long life. Borrowing from the exotic Hunza land’s amazing geological filtration process, we are able to produce exceptionally pure water. This remarkable water now serves as the basis for seven luxurious products to help keep your skin looking healthy, supple and radiant.

To start the process I use a cotton ball along with the makeup removing oil, with one wipe I can get almost all of my eye makeup off including eyeshadow. Then, I use hot water, a wash cloth and about a quarter size amount of the cleansing cream to wash off the foundation on my face. Next, I use the lotion (its very thin, leaves your pores feeling able to breathe but still moisturizes your skin), followed by the skin serum which keeps my skin feeling soft, but not oily. Last, I use a dime size amount of the eye cream for both eyes.

After using the Mannatech Optimal Skin Care System I noticed a more brighter and softer complection, along with more hydrated skin. My blemishes were also much easier to cover with makeup than before.

Introduction




My name is Bailey, I'm 16 years old. I love being girl-y. My favorite shampoo scents would be cinnamon, vanilla, and peach. I enjoy fixing my hair and makeup. Unlike my mom, my style is sort of high maintenance.
I look forward to being able to share my ideas and tips with you, enjoy : )

Introduction - I'm Michelle


Hello, I'm Michelle. I'm 42 and I love being a girl. I love makeup and skincare and shampoo that smells like pineapple. I love reading and writing about fashion and style, but I live a pretty laid back life in flip flops, for the most part.
I write a couple of beauty blogs for b5media and now, along with my 16-year-old daughter, Bailey, I'm embarking on this new blogging venture - Girl Looks Swell.
I'd like to cover beauty for women of all ages. In fact, my 10-year-old, Sarah, will also be popping in with her opinion from time to time.
I look forward to sharing my love of girl-stuff with you. I hope you enjoy reading Girl Looks Swell.
