Colleen Rothschild Beauty: a sample kit to start great skin

Hello Gorgeous!
Oh I have been spoiled early for Valentine's Day with a sampler kit from Colleen Rothschild Beauty!


Inside this beauty bag that is perfect for travel-comes 6 pieces of skin care just ready to transform tired, fatigued looking skin. I have been using my sampler for a full week now, and I love 5 out of 6 products. Not bad for a new line that is as simple as it is effective! Learn more on the website here!





Radiant Cleansing Balm


 This is one of my favorite products in the starter kit. It really did take off all of my makeup, even my mascara though I needed to rinse my eyes and extra time to truly get off all of the mascara. Though, note-I wear a lot of mascara! Here are some more details about the product:

Comprehensive RADIANT CLEANSING BALM dissolves eye and face makeup, clears congested pores, and removes impurities, leaving skin balanced, soft and radiant.

Includes 1 Muslin Cloth  $65.00

Place balm in clean, dry hands then rub together to warm product. Apply to dry skin and massage all over face. Wet muslin cloth with hand-hot water and wring damp. Place over skin for a mini-facial then use to wipe off balm. Follow with a splash of cool water to leave you glowing.

Can be used morning or night.

Dual Enzyme Polish


This is my other favorite product and I am guilty of using more than twice a week. I love it's smooth gritty texture. Doesn't make sense does it? What I mean is, the grit is fine and the emulsion is smooth and it feels and smells wonderful on the skin. After I rinse my face, my skin looks vibrant!
