Because clean skin, means happy healthy skin. Taking a good care of your skin should always be on top of your beauty regimen.
Today’s skincare products, is a complete skincare regimen that I have been using for three weeks now, and I am so excited about these new products!
Azure Naturals is the brand, and they launched this new line lately, so I guess you will hear about them before many others 😉
Azure Naturals Ocean Minerals include:
These products are supposed to work together, so for best results, Azure Naturals sent me all of them for review, and offered another set of ALL FOUR products to one lucky winner 🙂
Let me first tell you about my own experience with these products…
There has been an argument going viral online about which should be done first; exfoliating your skin, or cleansing? Read my post about that here. The bottom line is that exfoliation is great for removing all dirt, that way; it will be easier for your cleanser to penetrate through your pores, and get rid of all dirt and makeup. Azure Naturals Hydration mask contains over 90 powerful oceanic minerals, and micro minerals. It has a thick creamy consistency, which reminded me of Dead Sea mud. It does not harden; just forms little cracks when it dries. As soon as I apply it, I enjoy a refreshing cooling sensation. It has a smell that I think is a mix of aloe and sea minerals, not sure, but I like it.
When it dries off, after about 15-20 minutes, I wash it off with warm water. I used it three times a week, some said they use it every day, but I do not recommend that, especially if you have dry or sensitive skin, mine is combination by the way.
After the first week, I noticed that there are fewer breakouts, and pores are less visible. That was great, especially that we are in the middle of wedding season, and I was preparing my skin for more than one event.
The second step is cleansing my skin. I use this facial cleanser on a daily basis. It is great for removing makeup, and deeply cleansing my skin. My skin does not tend to dry afterwards, nevertheless, if you have dry skin, the following step will rehydrate your skin.
It has same smell like the mask, and it is simple to use; few pumps in my palm, lather with warm water and gently work through my face and neck in circular motion, and then I rinse with warm water. I like that this Ocean Mineral Organic Cleanser contains tea tree oil, which is one of the best natural treatments for acne, and because it is combined with Aloe Vera, it cleanses without drying my skin.
Third step in this ultimate skincare regimen is the toner. Honestly, this is the first spray toner that I use. And I really like it!
By spending more time outside in hot summer days, this toner is great for replenishing moisture. I believe it would be more helpful in dry winter months. Well, I will have to wait few months to find out.
As for summer, this organic facial toner nourishes, moisturizes, and rejuvenates my skin all day long and I can use it throughout the day.
The final step is moisturizing my skin. This lightweight cream has the same scent as the rest of this line of products. This ultimate ocean mineral cream also contains ocean minerals, and shea butter for best moisturizing your skin.
I need 2-3 pumps for my face and neck, and I find that my skin absorbs it super fast, leaving my skin smooth, and it does not leave my skin greasy.
I have been enjoying lovely smelling and effective skincare kit for three weeks now. My skin is now clean, no pimples popping, pores are less visible, and it looks healthier. I like the packaging, too; perfect for carrying on vacations. Plus organic ingredients and cruelty free.
It is still hard to tell if these products have an anti-aging effect. However, I believe that on the long run, with ingredients like organic Aloe Vera and shea butter, they will.

My main problem with my skin is acne marks. I wish they would completely fade away quickly but it is a slow process. Another problem area is the wrinkles under my eyes, I feel like it is making me look older than what I am. #ProductReviewParty
There is no quick solution for skin problems, yet, there are some good solutions out there.
You can choose one of the following in addition to cleansing and exfoliating your skin:
1. Yogurt face mask for naturally exfoliating your skin.
2. Vitamin C serums are great for brightening your complexion, fading scars, and promoting collagen production.
3. Chemical peels, when used properly can do wonders, read this post for details.
Hope this help, Loudia!
I want my skin tone to be brighter.
Exfoliating and cleansing on a regular basis will promote the formation of new skin, over time, your skin will look brighter and glowing. Adding a vitamin C serum also helps, Azure Natural has a great vitamin C serum that I reviewed in the past here.
Good luck, Gabrielle!
My skin is as oily today as it was in junior high. It's a huge struggle and makes me self conscious. I'm always willing to try something to help control it.
Cleansing and exfoliation are the number one solution for oily skin.
I managed to control my oily T-zone that way.
As I mentioned in my post, tea tree oil is great for oily skin.
Best of luck, Jenny!
My main issue is dry skin
Dry skin can be treated by using gentle exfoliation and moisturizing, Azure Naturals is a good choice for dry skin, too.
Good luck, Steph!
I have combination skin with some adult acne. Ive heard wonderful things about this line, and would love to try it for myself.
Best of luck, Jamie!
my main issue is not having smooth, clear skin.
I'd like to enter this because I love trying new products and maybe it'll work
Hope it will work for you, good luck, Emily!
I am not sure exactly what my exact problem is. I've tried everything I can... at least afford. I think it may be adult acne... But I only ever really break out on my neck and chin... Still embarassing. I eat a super healthy unprocessed diet, I try to avoid dairy products, cut back on sugar, And i've changed my detergents, soaps and wash my bed sheets a few times a week.
Oh, Breanna, I know how it feels when suffering from adult acne!
The Azure Natural's Hydrating mask can also be used for the whole body.
best of luck, Breanna!
I have dry patches and oily patches, so I would love to balance out my skin, Hopefully this could help.
I hope so, too :)
Good luck, Lisa!
I have very dry skin, and I am always looking for the right product for my skin type!! I feel like i've tried 100 different products, but none of them seem to be the perfect one for me. I have not gotten to try Azure Naturals products,but I keep hearing and seeing great things about them.
Good luck, Lanae!
My main problem is oily skin. I also didn't start taking care of my skin until recently (in my early 30s), making sure I am always wearing SPF now. I am wishing I would have cared sooner!
It is never too late, Jill!
Your skin will thank you for wearing SPF. Good luck, Jill!
