Tweet E45 is one of those British staple health and beauty names, like Savlon, or Bonjela or Sudocreme. Whenever you tell someone (a normal person, not a beauty blogger!) that you have dry skin they always go “Have you put E45 on it?” as if you haven’t already thought of using it! It reminds of a friend I had a few years ago who was a internet newbie, so every day she’d find a new website. I had been a {Read More}
Tweet I like Neutrogena…I remember my mum and aunts being obsessed with a blue face wash they did (they don’t sell it in the UK anymore but they do in the US and Canada…my aunt stockpiled them recently!). I love their face wash – it’s so good and non drying. Anyway I’ve had this Deep Moisture Comfort Balm for months and months. It’s not even near the end of it’s life yet amazingly: This comes in a big 300ml tub {Read More}
Tweet I got a surprise goody box a few months ago and one of the items in there was this cream by Bliss Spa, called the Triple Oxygen + C Energizing Cream. I am a fan of the Oxygenating face mask so I figured I’d probably like this cream. It’s a gel-cream formula that sinks in very quickly and is supposed to hydrate and brighten the skin. It contains Oxygen and Vitamin C and doesn’t include things like sulfates or {Read More}
Tweet I am a massive fan of the Neals Yard Rejuvenating Frankincense range – LOVE. However, my complaint about the face cream is that it’s quite stinky. I have the face cream, the toner, the serum (amazing stuff) and face wash from the range. And now this – the Eye & Lip Serum! An intensive daily treatment to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles, with rejuvenating frankincense; moisturising, elasticity-boosting baobab oil; firming nutrient-rich marine algae and a smoothing, collagen-stimulating {Read More}
Tweet I freaking love Laura Mercier primer and loose powder, hence I broke my no buy rule felt that the Tinted Moisturiser was necessary, since it would: 1. Complete my Laura Mercier Base collection (primer, powder) 2. Be great for this hot weather which will last about, oooh a week 3. Its a moisturiser so I count it as skincare so THERE So I plonked down £32 (sob) for the oil free version of the Tinted Moisturiser cos everyone goes {Read More}
Tweet There’s an awful lorra sensitive skinned folks in my family. Eczema, Psoriasis etc. We all have a lot of dry flaky skin going about so much so that my aunts house looks like a pharmacy. So I am always up to test creams made for sensitive skin. Halo is a face cream – its light, its free from colour, scent and parabens. You also get 100ml of it so to be honest, I use it wherever I please. This {Read More}
Tweet Embryolisse, I think, is a French skincare range, and I picked up the Lait Creme Concentre Face Moisturiser (24-Hour Miracle Cream) from Guru Make Up Emporium to try. I am a sucker for really simple skincare – my skin gets irritated easily. They Say: Our creamy lotion is really three products in one: the make-up artists use it as a primer, moisturizer, and make-up remover. It also reduces irritation after shaving! This has a gorgeous texture – its not {Read More}
Tweet This Yoghurt Cream from Korres has been in my drawer for a few months, and I’ve finally got round to doing a review. Korres is a medium-expensive skincare and cosmetic range from Greece. They have tons and tons of products for all kinds of skincare ailments. On paper it sounds like the dream cream – for both oily and dehydrated skin. Mine is problematic at the moment – dry and flaky around the forehead and temples but oily around {Read More}
