Devita Solar Protective Moisturizer SPF 30+


This is a great daily moisturizer for the summer time!
This may be my new favourite morning moisturizer :)

My Skin: Combination/oily and sometimes dehydrated

Pros:
☆ absorbs pretty quickly into the skin
☆ very lightweight, when I first used it, it reminded me of light whipped cream cheese haha
☆ matte finish on the skin when absorbed
☆ reasonably priced ($20-25)
☆ good 75ml of product!
☆ has a considerably good amount of sun protection! SPF30+
☆ kind of smells like almond tofu >> is it just me?
☆ small, compact packaging, great for travel!

Cons:
☆ sometimes, it leaves a tiny drop(not even) of dried product from the
top of the cap... it reminds me of dried glue but it can be blended away
☆ not easily accessible (in stores)... I bought mine on iherb.com

Active Ingredient:
Zinc oxide 19%

Ingredients:
Aloe barbadensis* (aloe vera gel), purified water (aqua),
capric/caprylic triglycerides (derived from coconut oil), glycerin (vegetable),
hyaluronic acid (vegan source), glyceryl stearate SE (derived from vegetable oil),
stearic acid, lecithin phospholipid, tocopherol (vitamin E), allantoin,
vitis vinifera (grape) seed extract.

Would I buy it again?
Yes, especially for the summer time. I don't think I would use this for the winter time.
I'm not sure if it will be hydrating enough, since it leaves an apparent matte finish.

Favourite May Etsy Finds ♡

I just wanted to share some of my favourite shops on Etsy!
I think I might do this monthly :p

Handmade backpacks by FYMwear
They are approx. $80-85

These backpacks are so lovely! I love the floral one ♡
Their backpacks are named after different European countries :)
The one on the left is "Finland" and the right is "Holland" (which should be Netherlands lol)

I'm sure some of you know Kani from K is for Kani (her blog) :)
but she also makes beautiful floral head accessories :)
k is for kani Her accessories are about $32+

I think the price is putting me off...
There are other sellers who make similar head pieces as well,
but they're not as intricate/beautiful to look at :)

BagyBags handmade bags/backpacks

These are so cute! They have a laptop compartment too, but it's not really padded >>
They are approx. $95. They also sell totes and other bags for $40+

Illuminated Perfume sells... yep, you guessed it :) perfume!
But what's so special? the reusable locket packaging! :)
They are eco-friendly/natural perfumes :)

They are approx. $85, but they also sell samples(picture on the right)!

That's all for now :) I will share some more at the end of June :)
Have a great weekend! I will most likely be doing a nail design post tomorrow :)
