Ageless Derma Natural Camoufleur Concealer Ivory Review


Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

Ageless Derma Natural Camoufleur Concealer Ivory


This concealer is in a very nice and easy to open package. I like that it is in a pot like this with a window on top so you can see the shade without having to open up the container unnecessarily. 
The texture is extremely creamy and the color matches my skin perfectly so it is easy to use as a spot concealer on my areas of concern. I have been using it to cover my hyper pigmentation to my forehead and cheek areas. I do set it with a fine loose powder to keep it in place, but i do have to do some touch ups at the end of the day around 3pm (my touch up consists of blotting and a powder refresher). I usually apply my makeup around 5:30am and do not get home till after 5:30pm. Usually as soon as I get home I am running to get dressed for crossfit and I do not even remove my makeup before going. It continues to stay on even after working out.   

For those of you who are concerned with animal testing you will be happy to know that there is NO animal testing with the Ageless Derma products. AND it is paraben free. It is a win win. It is made with apple extracts and vitamins to help with nourishing the skin. 





If you have dry skin and need the added moisture this is an excellent concealer to use since it will not dry out your skin. The other plus, it is full coverage. 
In the above photo, this concealer is light, but on my face it is exactly perfect.



I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

If you unlock your brand challenges you may be chosen to get a prize pack from the brands too!
In the Mom Superstar challenge we got to try out 
  1. Stash Tea (Nektar Honey Crystals)
  2. Impress nail 
  3. DenTek Flossers
  4. Quaker Oatmeal Soft Baked Oatmeal Cookies
  5. Ivory Bar soap
  6. Dino Lingo trial





Stash Tea  - came in so many yummy flavors, but I have to say my favorite was the pomegranate! You really don't need any sweetener if you add lemon it is amazing!


 The impress was really pretty and looked nice, but the fit was not great for my nails. From the top they looked amazing, but from the side and bottom looked really bad. You could tell they just did not fit. My sister-in law on the other hand.... They not only looked beautiful, but they fit her perfectly (so jealous). You could not see the seams. I wish it did for me too, so I do know that if you have the right type of nail beds they will look AMAZING.









Allison loved it!!  (BTW I did too!) soft and chewy and tasted so good is there anything else to say about an Oatmeal Cookie? YUM!




The Dino Ling was interesting and funny to watch, but my son was not interested that much. It was harder to know what you are suppose to say since there were no sub-titles. You had to guess about the exact word you were saying/repeating.

The Ivory is great for cleaning my makeup brushes. I still am using it and love how my brushes come out brand new. I have tried the baby shampoo, but that does not clean my brushes like this. I thought all along that my brushes would just stay stained until I tried the Ivory. I would definitely recommend it!

The many uses of Ivory


I recieved the Ivory Soap from Influenster in my Mom VoxBox to try out and give my honest opinion and thoughts. 
 I really have not seen Ivory Bar soap in such a long time. I have use the body wash and love it so when I opened the bar soap I thought what else besides body soap could I use this for. I found out that it is great to use for 
  1. laundry soap by flaking pieces off into your laundry
  2. as a spot stain remover ( ring around the collar and food stains)
  3. facial cleanser 
  4. crafty things like soap carving and I even saw one mom make colored soap wash from it.
  5. Fun in the tub for kids cause it floats in the tub
What I decided to use it for was to clean my makeup brushes. I have to be honest I am not the most frequent brush cleaner around. The only reason for that is that it takes forever and I always have to wash them 2-3 times to get it clean and even then they are not completely clean so I kind of think.... why bother...... 







So here is my first brush I use this to apply foundation and you can see the brown tips. 

I was completely AMAZED at how clean the brushes got! I mean really really amazed. I only washed it once and didn't even spend much time on it. I just rubbed, swirled and rinsed and Ta-Da!
Who knew? Don't spend all that wasted money on fancy cleansers and wasted time washing and re washing your brushes. One time and they are completely clean!!
Oh and by the way believe it or not it is 99.44% pure! (funny it floats)






Thank you so very much for opening my eyes to a whole new use and time saver for cleaning my make-up brushes!! 
You can purchase Ivory Soap from the Grocery store or any drug stores.
