Gia did our makeup, Max photobombed!
Hola Chicas!
While swiping on my favorite product last night, feeling thankful, I felt compelled to share it with y’all.
It’s one that I’ve been using for 2 years now (I may have mentioned it before?), and pray everyday that they continue to make it and don’t change the formula. I’ve repurchased many, many times, and need to re-purchasing again, but they’re out of stock til mid-November! It’s that good, boo! It’s Bolden’s Glycolic Acid Toner, and yeah… that’s all I got to say. That’s the whole post. The end. Thank me later.
Love,
Nik

j/k, but seriously, if you’re not a toner girl, and you’re wondering, ‘why toner’, there’s alladis:
- Toners work as a secondary cleanser to wipe off any residual dirt left on the skin after cleansing
- They can balance the skin’s pH level which may be upset after a harsh cleanser.
- They can restore some of the moisture lost during cleansing, back to the skin.
- The antioxidants inside your toner complement the antioxidants in your serums and creams.
- They work like primers to prepare the skin for serums and moisturizers.
- As an example, your makeup primer isn’t the one that gives you the coverage. But it sure does enhance your foundation. source
Also, this particular toner, this brand, is Black female owned and operated! So there’s that, too!
Ingredient highlights
-Niacinamide – Also known as Vit B3, helps skin maintain its barrier function and also increases the level of ceramides in the skin
-Licorice Root Extract – improves the appearance of dark spots, uneven skin tone, and hyperpigmentation
-Vitamin B5 – Widely regarded for its hydrating and wound-healing properties
-Algae Extract – A powerful antioxidant that significantly reduces skin pigmentation, and the appearance and size of dark spots
Experience
My results? Immediate AF, AND long-term! As soon as I swipe it on, it leaves me glowy, and my skin, especially around my eyes and neck more taught and nourished. The glycolic acid minimizes fine lines and pores, faded all of my old hormonal acne scars (on my chin), and exfoliates my situation gently and thoroughly. I wouldn’t purchase another toner, even if the reviews were ridiculously amazing, even if Jesus was using it. And this is NOT an ad! Just love!
Standing with you in and as Love,
Nik
