Hard Candy Kal-eye-descope Baked Eyeshadow Duo

This is Hard Candy's Daydream 260, a shimmery purple and silver color duo. I must say that I absolutely love these two colors! They are nicely pigmented so you don't have to apply too much to get the results you want. And it lasts throughout the entire day as long as you make sure to use an eye primer. 
If you want the colors to be really bright and as close as possible to the colors in the compact I would suggest applying them wet (you can find a great article on how to apply eyeshadow wet, here.) I was really impressed! Hard Candy has many amazing and fashion-forward colors in their Kal-eye-descope Baked Eyeshadow collection.
Hard Candy Hide & Glow Cheek Cheek Tint Duo
This is Hard Candy's In Love 315, a beautiful duo of a bright pink and a more subtle pinkish-golden cream cheek colors. The colors aren't very pigmented so you have to rub it on your cheeks a few times, but it's seriously easy to do.


This cheek stain isn't sticky or wet and it dries super fast. I had no problems with my skin breaking out after using this product. This product has a tendency to fade after a few hours, but reapplication is really easy and a lot less messy than traditional powder blush. Overall, I really liked this product! Hard Candy cosmetics are sold exclusively at Walmart and are also available on Walmart.com—all for under $10!

Dr. Sue Ann Wee on Acne Scarring, Types of Acne Scars, and Treatment Options

Dr. Sue Ann Wee is Board Certified Dermatologist with expertise in laser surgery, cosmetic, and medical dermatology. I got the opportunity to ask her a few questions about acne scarring and the treatment options that are available for those suffering from acne scarring.  Why does acne scarring occur? When acne occurs, it is accompanied by an inflammatory response which injures the skin. This injured area of skin then undergoes wound repair in which the body produces scar tissue (collagen) to heal the wound. Although, the body replaces injured tissue with the same type of tissue (collagen) that is present in normal tissue, scar tissue lays down collagen in a  different and inferior manner compared to normal tissue collagen. This different arrangement of collagen in the body’s healing  process is the key feature of scar formation. What are the different types of acne scars? There are 5 main types of acne scars: rolling, box-car, ice-pick, hypertrophic, and keloid. R
