SNOW DAYS and L'Oreal Collagen Moisture Filler Review

Hi everyone. I love SNOW DAYS!!! It was snowing really bad yesterday, but evening courses were not canceled until the 7pm at the University. So it really sucked to make it to night class and then drive back home on the slushy ice roads. But I'm surprised we have another 3 day weekend! Let's pray that we have snow on sunday night so no school/work on Monday either!

It feels warm outside and the roads are drivable, but I guess Memphis can't handle snow!
 This is a picture taken from my window showing the new Pharmacy building and you can see the snow falling in the afternoon. I was waiting for classes to be canceled since all other schools and universities let students out.

These are just pictures of the park nearby as I went to my car. It's like a winter wonderland with light snow frostings.

Another thing I want to mention is a product review.
 I have been using this cream for the past 2 months and I finally got to do a review on it. 
L'oreal Collagen Moisture Filler is a cream that "restores skin's cushion and smooth wrinkles." So far, after using this product, I do agree that my skin has gotten smoother more white and clearer than before. 

Pros: Good amount for price, Mositurizes, Smooths skin
Cons: Need to apply regularly, you can't prevent skin from natural aging

You can use this day and night twice a day. But now I have used it only in the evenings so I can have longer usage of the product. The key idea is to massage your skin and also apply this moisture filler to prevent your skin from drying out after a harsh day.

The consistency is like a cold cream. It is very thick but glides on your face very smoothly. I only use a pea size and place it under my eyebags. Your eyes are the most sensitive area and more likely to loose elastin and collagen, which creates a fibrous network that makes your skin looks youthful and firm. Once you age, your skin looses it's elasticity because collagen fibers begin to loose its function. That's one of the main reasons that older women have sagging eye pouches underneath their eye from lack of sleep also.

I got this cream on sale at Wal-Mart for $12, and I wouldn't mind making a purchase again. I have been searching for an anti-wrinkle cream, and I think L'Oreal's like is pretty promising. 

However, keep in mind that topical creams take a long time before you see any effects. This review is from my personal experience, and it might vary depending on your skin type.

You can login in and sign up to receive coupons on L'Oreal products on their main site.

Also I am a huge fan on RnB music. So this Vday! Yes Valentine's Day Feb 14, Brian McKnight is going to visit Memphis. I really want to go since tickets are $45-69 and it would be perfect to see him live. But I don't know what my plans are. It's a new change and things are going to be different this year.

Thanks for reading again. Stay warm and stay safe loves.
