In Her Element Butterlips Conditioning Color Review

In Her Element, a brand spearheaded by my Beauty Blogger friend Liz Lanuzo.  I knew Liz for a decade now, we started our Beauty Blogging journey reviewing various beauty products and Liz has always been very serious with her reviews and I look up to her on how she studies each ingredient. 

I am not surprised she came up with In Her Element and her skincare products (reviews HERE).  I obviously didn't blink an eye when she expanded her brand with lipsticks! 

Introducing: In Her Element Butterlips Conditioning Color

Php345.00 each/Php875 a set 

Available at: www.inherelement.ph

This formula is a balm and lipstick hybrid, delivering a juicy wash of moisturizing color on the lips.  It's designed to be comfortable and low-maintenance during the day, so that you don't need to take too much precious time retouching.

I'll leave it to Liz to understand my "dryness" issues.  A lot of lip products have been made available and most of them are so gorgeous but I couldn't wear them for a long time because of the matte finish.  Thankfully, someone came up with lip products that has the same gorgeous colors I want that are made available in matte formulation yet comfortable enough to wear even without the presence of lip balm! 

I don't know about you but I'm looking forward for more shades the brand has to offer.

Different Mists and their Functions

What are mists?

I am referring to facial mists!  The products you see housed in a spray bottle or atomizer!  A product where I mostly set aside because these are "extras".  Little did I know after 10 plus years of Blogging, I would cling on this extra step as an integral part of my skincare regimen!

So there are a whole lot of Face Mists brands out their with fancy names - Face Mists, Toning Water, Atomizer, Makeup Setting Spray, Oil-control spray and a whole lot more!  So do they all work the same or should you read into details before you push them aside?

I highly recommend you to go for the latter!

I have a couple of face mists that I have tried through the years (I apologize for missing out some as I'm sure I did!)  But these are just some of the ones I use and yes, I alternately use them on different occasions for different purposes and you'll find at least 1 face mist in my bag, my table and inside the car!  (Not putting atomizers inside the car though for safety!)

Shall we begin?

If I plan to keep my skin hydrated all throughout the day, I use Avene Thermal Spring Water (Php750.00 for 150ml available at Watsons), this bottle mainly contains water and just like our body, whenever I feel like my skin is hydrated, I would immediately pull this bottle out and give my skin a breathe of fresh water!

This bottle is great for hiking as well!  Tested to refresh my senses!

Now if water ONLY doesn't make the cut because you have dry skin or your skin tends to try midday with makeup on --- go for Face Mists.

Face Mists like Esfolio Nutri-Snail Daily Soothing Mist (Php399.00 available at select stores and online stores), these types of products does not only contain water but also ingredients that keep our skin hydrated all throughout the day.  I call this moisturizer in a bottle because with makeup on, it is impossible to apply my favorite moisturizer on top of makeup so I use this instead!  With several spritz and patting motion, my skin does not feel as dry or my makeup does not look cracked like before.

I also like to use Face Mist in between makeup routine REGULARLY.  Meaning, I inject this extra step between Face Cleansing + Toning, Toning + moisturizer --- yes, I do a couple of spritz in between to keep my skin hydrated making sure the "environment" won't evaporate the newly applied moisturizer, instead, it evaporates Face Mists instead!

In Her Element Petal Skin Rose Products Review

In Her Element recently launched their newest skincare line called PETAL SKIN.

When you say "Petal Skin", I'm imagining soft, supple, bouncy, pink and healthy-looking skin.  Who wouldn't want to achieve that?

So I was honored when I was given the chance to try their 2 new products.  Petal Skin Rose Toning Essence and Petal Skin Rose Clay Mask.

In Her Element Petal Skin Rose Toning Essence

Php875.00

The packaging is simple yet very innovative!  This is a great way to store toners and essences in my opinion as you can easily press the top and get right amount of product without the need to tilt the bottle.

In Her Element Cleansing Products Review

When I was manning my first booth at a Bazaar I joined a couple of months ago, I chanced upon Liz Lanuzo's booth and saw new In Her Element cleansing products.  I have tried her first product called In Her Element Nourish and Cleanse Balm and the experience was extremely positive so I am looking forward to try her 2 new products that deals with cleansing --- I may not be religiously applying skincare products but I never miss a day without cleansing my face.  Cleansing is definitely one skincare secret I value.

In Her Element First Wash Cleansing Oil (Php450.00)

In Her Element Low PH Rose Gel Cleanser (Php675.00)

Let's start with First Wash Cleansing Oil.  Cleansing Oils are the makeup remover I live for!  No matter how many times I've used, reviewed and loved Micellar Cleansing waters, I always ended up using Cleansing Oils as my overall makeup remover because they melt makeup like no other!  

Firstly, I love how In Her Element calls this a FIRST WASH Cleansing Oil because truthfully, no matter how many brands of cleansing oils I've tried, I ALWAYS fellow up with a second wash or even third wash!  So THANK YOU In Her Element for being honest about it!  Users must UNDERSTAND that it is best to follow up with a second wash whenever you use cleansing oils because.....it works better that way!

In Her Element First Wash Cleansing Oil 

"The First Wash Cleansing Oil is made of all-natural, high-grade oils that work to remove the impurities of the day from your face. It contains Grape Seed Oil, rich in Beta-Carotene and Vitamins D, C, E, which helps to brighten skin. It is also abundant in Linoleic Acid or Omega-6, which is believed to heal skin faster, prevent acne, and manage aging. It also contains Sweet Almond Oil and Coconut Oil, which helps to maintain the moisture barrier. It also features Vitamin E, an anti- oxidant, to help nourish skin.
This formula is fragrance-free. "

INGREDIENTS: Grape Seed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Coconut Oil, Polysorbate 80, Vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate)

In Her Element Nourish and Cleanse Balm Review

Liz and I have known each other since we both started Blogging which was eons ago!  With her passion on beauty, I am NOT surprised she came up with her brand to empower makeup enthusiasts.  Because she has tested so many products and she knows which works..or not!  

In Her Element Nourish and Cleanse Balm is her start-up product and I can't wait to see more from this brand!

The product is housed in a simple yet modern pot with a pink shade that screams "Project Vanity" all the way!  This pot houses 30g of cleansing balm and I am really excited to roadtest this because you guys knew how much of a skincare freak I am!

In Her Element Nourish and Cleanse Balm Says ---

A versatile balm that soothes, cleanses, protects, and nourishes skin. Contains skin- loving Coconut Oil and Beeswax.

Ingredients: Coconut Oil, Beeswax, Cocoa Butter, Choco Vanilla Oil, Vanilla Oil and Red colorant
