Hello everyone and Happy Spring!!! When Spring arrives I always feel the need to de-clutter and re-organize my closet and my makeup. As I was organizing my beauty products, I realized it was time to review some of the amazing skincare and makeup that I’ve received from a vegan subscription box called Petit Vour (according to their website, the name is Frenglish, it derives from “petit four”).  www.petitvour.com/pages/faqs.

Over the course of the last few  years I’ve been trying to switch over to more natural skincare and beauty products. So I received this subscription as a gift from a family member for Christmas and I really love it! Please read below for my review of the samples I’ve received in the first two boxes.

Hi there! While we are only a couple of weeks away from Spring, it’s still  cold here on the East Coast -well, some days anyway, it’s been a  crazy Winter! With the cold comes dry skin, which means I’m in desperate need for hydrating skincare products. I was one of the lucky  people selected to try a hydrating skincare line by a new company called Valentia. The timing could not have been more perfect!

Valentia was the Roman Goddess of healing and she relied on what nature provided to heel the citizens of Umbria.  She would help farmers heel their damaged skin from the sun with natural ingredients, such as berries and herbs. Similarly to the goddess that inspired it, the Valentia skincare company uses natural ingredients that can help repair sun  and wind damage, and prevent wrinkles and dark spots (paraphrased from http://www.valentia.com/pages/about-us).

I received two products for testing: the Ultra Plumping Hydration Mask and the True Glow Eye Cream. I tested both of them for about 2-3 weeks. I’m going to review the hydrating mask first.
