Charlotte Tilbury is known as one of the Queens of the Beauty Industry. I have followed her career during my teens and early 20s as she was the artist behind iconic looks from Victoria Beckham and Kate Moss (I won't ever get over that Iconic V magazine cover of Rihanna and Kate!) as well as working with Tom Ford for many years.

It has been a handful of years since she released her own high end beauty line and one of the stand out products I've heard raves about was the Charlotte Tilbury Multi-Miracle Glow, a 3 in 1 cleanser, mask and face balm. When I got my hands on this I almost fainted and was praying that it lived up to the hype.

Created with a blend of organic sea buckthorn seed oil to aid in a smoother complexion, vitamin A, C and E to improve firmness, brightness and moisture for youthful, glowing skin as well as rosehip and camellia oils to renew texture, hydrate and delay aging.

My favorite thing about this product is the consistency. The balm feels luxurious. I always say that products like these make you feel calm and pampered. Cleansing and treating your skin no longer feels like a chore.

Cleansing was a breeze, I tried it as a make up remover and it took off my mascara and eyeliner fairly well, better than expected. I did another thorough cleanser after removing my makeup and then used it as a mask. It does as it says and makes your skin baby soft and plump with major hydration without leaving it oily (oily gals, this multi-tasking product is your friend) I recommend massaging it onto dry skin to get blood circulating and letting the skin drink up the moisturizing benefits. You can do the same when using it as a mask but just leaving it on for about 15 min . I must admit that I did NOT use this as an overnight mask, but I have used it as balm moisturizer by applying very little after cleansing/masking.

If I can change one thing about this product, it is the subtle scent (subtle for me, but might be stronger to others) I don't feel quite comfortable putting perfumed products on my face. With that being said, I'm shocked (and pleased) to find that after a couple of weeks of use, this cleanser/mask/balm/everything didn't burn or irritate my dry sensitive skin. My face also doesn't feel uncomfortable tight after I rinse it off or get red.

Sensitive skin friendly multi use cleanser. The gel like balm texture is superb!

I found that you can even use this on dry body parts like your hands and elbows (trust me, try masking your hands with this, your cuticles will feel renewed)

This 3 in 1 Product retails for $60 with 100ml of product which may seem like a little bit of product but you are paying for the luxurious quality. This is definitely a "TREAT YO SELF" product, and a perfect gift as the packaging is absolutely gorgeous!

You can purchase Multi-Miracle Glow at CharlotteTilbury.com, Nordstrom.com, Net-a-porter.com and Bloomingdales.

In the pursuit of our dreams, we can forget to slow down and practice some self-care. I can find myself getting so wrapped up in my work that 5 hours flies by and I haven't taken a single break. Being driven is wonderful, but there is nothing wrong with taking time for yourself. Or so I try to remind myself. As a woman in my mid-20s, I often feel so much pressure to 'make it happen.' I know you can feel that way too! So when I am practicing self care, I do the things in life that make me feel at ease. I make myself a delicious breakfast. I take an entire morning to do my makeup. I treat myself to an at home spa get away That is where these beautiful, handcrafted products from Apartment Violet come in.

For your self-care spa get away, turn down your lights, and light this Elysian Fields Soy Candle from Apartment Violet. I have to be honest, my sense of smell is not very sophisticated. If you blind folded me and asked me to 'name that scent,' I'd probably say vanilla? 3 out of 5 times. This vivid purple candle smells soft and sweet and maybe a little like a sweet red wine. Just a few minutes of burning and the scent fills the room without drowning your senses.

Next up we have an instant essential skincare, hair care, everything care product! The Everything Balm. Now this scent I know! It has a strong tea tree smell (or is it eucalyptus?) IDK, man, my nose knows nada. I do know that I love this smell. The scent is strong but as the products melts like butter into your skin, the scent settles and isn't so potent. I will be honest, I did not try the everything balm on my hair because the coloring products I use are super sensitive. I would have only used it on my ends anyway and I really didn't want to make my hair color looking patchy. It's purple so it's cute but patchy purple hair will look insane. But! Fear not, I was able to use it. The everything balm is perfect to cure any dry or cracked skin. It will heal those winter heels and soothe any dry acne patches you may have. I once wrote that I can't stand seeing crusty elbows and knees. It's still true! I love to rub this on to those places that are prone to dryness. It worked well to hydrate and bring life back to my cuticles. On my lips, tho -heaven! It sinks in and my lips look like they've never been deprived of water. If you had to pick one thing to get, I would suggest the Everything Balm because it's Errthang. (yes i did)

The difference between a mega company and a small business is the love that is so obvious in each package. Soap poured by hand, wrapped and stamped by hand. The attention and passion a person has for their business is apparent when you see a charming double heart stamp on the the rope that holds the package together. Inside there is a cute purple soap. I'm more of a liquid soap kind of person. But this bar soap was great to keep by the sink to keep my hands clean. While I don't feel that the bar soap added moisture to my hands, I don't feel that it stripped any away either. So while the Everything Balm is luxury, the soap is pure function. Which is nice.

Here are a few grabs from Apartment Violet's (@aptviolet) IG feed. I know you recognize the signature manicure of Ms. Pepper B. herself holding their package. The artwork of the candle is so unique and beautiful.
