Anaiti Instant Wrinkle Smoothing Serum Review [VIDEO]

Leave a comment


Well, this is it. The last year of my twenties. After this, it’s all over for me. Right?

No way – I refuse to resign myself to a life of old lady-dom. I will not Botox and filler my face into oblivion (but based on recent evidence, I may become a cat lady).

Check out my video review of Anaiti’s Instant Wrinkle Smoothing Serum, one of the many ways I’m avoiding getting lines on my face without resorting to more drastic methods: Continue reading Anaiti Instant Wrinkle Smoothing Serum Review [VIDEO] →

eb5 Skincare Intense Moisture Anti-Aging Cream Review + Giveaway

10 Comments

If you missed out on our Hair Challenged giveaway, fear not: there are always more chances to win on Sassy Dove. Case in point: not only are we giving away a full home teeth whitening system, but we’re also giving you an opportunity to try this fab new skin cream by eb5.

Never heard of eb5? I hadn’t either before trying out the line, but it turns out they’ve been making waves in skincare since long before I was even alive to judge celebs (not by the content of their character, but by the length of their hot pants).

Based in Portland (the cool Portland, not the one in all the Lands’ End catalogs), eb5 Skincare dates back to 1904 when pharmacist Samuel Heldfond began creating remedies for his customers. His son Robert introduced eb5’s popular “five creams in one” anti-wrinkle cream in the 1960’s. Still popular in the post-Nicki Minaj era, eb5 is considered “the original wrinkle cream.” Continue reading eb5 Skincare Intense Moisture Anti-Aging Cream Review + Giveaway →

Perricone MD Firming Neck Therapy Review

1 Comment

Another embarrassing secret I’ll share: despite my age (I’m a ripe old 28), I already have some embarrassing turkey-like wrinkles forming on my neck. (Caused by all the head craning when I walk past Sephora’s yummy window displays, no doubt.) To battle the lines while I still have time, I tested Perricone MD’s Firming Neck Therapy.

How does it work? The product has anti-glycating qualities to combat premature wrinkles that develop as a result of excess sugar compounds, which bind to protein fibers and cause them to become dry, brittle and less tensile.

Surgical Tape: A Star Secret For Smooth Skin

1 Comment

Surgical Tape Facelift Great SkinIf you’ve seen Mommie Dearest, you likely noticed Joan Crawford’s obsessive beauty routine of sleeping with surgical tape on her face in hope of an overnight facelift. While Joan may not have been entirely in touch with reality, this is one practice ladies worried about fine lines actually could embrace. Really!

We often make faces while we sleep or dream that can cause your brows to furrow or skin to stretch and encourage the formation of new wrinkles. You can use surgical tape to ward away new lines by taping an “X” between your eyebrows, just above your nose. Just be careful not to tape too tight – you could have the opposite effect and actually create wrinkles by stressing your skin. And I wouldn’t recommend this on date night!
