Here is a closer look of the bag:



This folder type bag cannot really hold much makeup products but it would be a good one to hold small essentials and it can also serve as a carry-all wallet.

If you love coffee then you will definitely love this body scrub. I have used this body scrub before and I am a big fan! Added bonus: the caffeine in the scrub temporarily reduces the look of cellulites!

What is it for: Skin Repair, Anti-Aging

 Notable Ingredients: EGF, Niacinamide and Adenosine 

 So, what is the hype with EGF? As we grow gold, our skin slowly loses its ability to replicate, repair, and rejuvenate. This results to less cell growth, formation of wrinkles and less supple skin. EGF or Epidermal Growth Factor is like a “replacement therapy”, it encourages cell growth and skin regeneration.

This serum also contains Centella Asiatica for can treatment and Aloe Leaf Extract for soothing and skin repair.

  

What is it for: Brightening, Toning, Blemishes

Our body naturally produce CoQ10 (Coenzyme Q10) but we age, we lose this ability to produce as much as need. CoQ10 has a vital role in our bodies. It works to eliminate free-radicals that get in contact with our body. It also responsible in keeping the cells look younger and maintaining a healthy metabolism.  Having less of this makes our skin vulnerable thus resulting in less toned and wrinkly appearance of the skin.  

Topically applying CoQ10 replenishes the skin. These antioxidants penetrate deep in to skin helping it in producing collagen and elastin.
