Happy Holidays With BeautyTap!

Happy Holidays to all my readers! I struggle every year getting useful and original gifts for my family and friends, and my guess is so does the rest of the world! I do like to share my interests with my loved ones...even if my uncles seem to go kicking and screaming when I try to talk skincare to them!

My biggest interest obsession is skincare and I get some of my favorites from BeautyTap. I like BeautyTap because they have the best variety and seem to always be introducing new brands and products. Not to mention the flash sales!

The products in this article were sent to me from BeautyTap in exchange for my honest opinion.

Donkey Milk Water Drop Cream (seaNtree) 

Out of everything BeautyTap sent me, this was the product I was excited about the most. I had never heard of “water drop creams” before this product. When a water drop cream hits your skin, it turns into moisturizing drops that are easily absorbed by the skin.

The seaNtree Donkey Milk Water Drop Cream is a loose, opaque gel that has a light fragrance about it. It is the oddest feeling when you spread it on your skin and you can actually feel the change from gel to water. In the morning my skin is plump and hydrated.

Who knows, donkey milk may be the next snail mucin!

Smooth Body Bubble Bath Cube Soap (So Natural The Pure) 

This was another product I was curious about. Remember those animal shaped sponges in bright colors that hid the offending bar of soap when you were little? This is the adult version.

The Smooth Body Bubble Bath Cube Soap is a little hemp bag full of fresh powder scented soap. I was excited to try this product out to help rid me of the dry winter skin, in the absence of a Korean spa. I just did a foot peal and thought this would be great to help move the pealing along. I will not subject you to pictures of my peeling feet. Instead, here is a picture of the product after use:

It lathers but doesn’t produce a huge wasted cloud of soap. This is the amount of later you can expect:

How long will this product last? Not sure. It is full of actual cubes of soap, so it won’t be after one or two uses. I have a feeling this product will last a while as long as I remember to hang it up!

Snail Premium Ampule (seaNtree) 

Ahhh snail, my first AB love. I love snail and I love the packaging this product came in. Very sturdy, pretty and in a heavy glass bottle. The surprise for this ampule is that it is creamy! All of the ampules I have tried so far were clear.

The texture of the ampule is smooth, creamy and the thickness is somewhere between water and a thick serum (is "looseness" of a formula a thing?). The Snail Premium Ampule has a very light scent that dissipates almost right away upon application. This product has become an important hydrating layer in my war against tret-face. I highly recommend both this product and brand. I have been quite pleased with everything I have tried from seaNtree so far.

While these are all fabulous gift ideas, don't forget to gift yourself as well. Self care is something we all need to do better at. Me included. Make a New Year's Resolution to take better care of yourself!
