SKIN CARE ROUTINE

Hi,

So today I wanted to talk skin care and what products I use and also my routine...


First of all, I use face wipes just to get all the make-up left 'sitting' on my skin off. I just use Morrisons own brand becuase I'm really not that fussed about face wipes as I use them quickly, so I want them to be cheap!


Next off I go to the sink and use my Clarasonic Plus which really deep cleans. I use this with either my Malin and Goetz Grapefruit cleanser or my Ole Henriksen African Red Tea cleanser, both are fabulous are really cleaning skin but don't damage or irratate me. I then just use wash off my face with warm water and dab my face dry with a towel.


I then head for my Korres Pomegranate Tonic, or to you and me, 'toner', dab some on a cotton wool pad and sweep across my face. I let this sink in and dry and then continue on with the rest of my routine. 
 

Now this next bit depends on how well my skin is behaving, If im having a spotty day, I then apply my La-Roche Posey Effaclair duo all over. Or I will use my Malin and Goetz Sulphur paste with a Q-tip and put on to the spots directly.




If I'm having a good skin day then I will skip that last step and just go in with my Korres Advanced Nourishing Greek Yoghurt Moisturiser. Or once or twice a week I will go in with my Sarah Chapman Skinesis Overnight facial as a treat!




And that folks is about it! (If it's Winter, I wil put on some Nuxe, Reve De Miel's lipbalm, becuase usually my lips are chapped and this stuff works wonders!)

PRODUCT REVIEW - BY TERRY OMBRE BLACKSTAR MISTY ROCK AND BRONZE MOON (UPDATED)

Image
If you saw my previous blog post on the By Terry Ombre Blackstar eyeshadows you would see that I wanted to originally get 'Misty Rock' and 'Bronze Moon' however when I went on Space NK, they were out of stock (cries!) however I did get them a few weeks back and I said I would do swatches, sorry they are so late but it's better than never! So here they are... (Bronze Moon on the left and Misty Rock on the right) These are super pigmented and very shimmery and simply look gorgeous on!  I have never know another eye product to last so long, even swatching them on my hand it took a good scrub to get the product off! These retail at £28, not cheap but so worth the money in my opinion!  In terms of colour Bronze Moon is a almost a bronze/gold/brown shade and Misty Rock is a pinky/mauve colour. Both utterly stunning and really make the eyes pop when you wear the colour on your lids. You can either do a quick swipe and go or you can really layer on the prod

PRODUCT REVIEW - KEVYN AUCOIN EXPERT LIP COLOURS IN SIREEDAN, ROSERIN AND MICAVEL

Image
After reading a few posts about the Kevyn Aucoin lipsticks I decided to bite the bullet (anyone else get the lipstick pun there?!)  After looking through the variety of colours on offer I couldn't choose between three so typically got them all! ...More swatches for you guys! The first one I really wanted was so different in colour from my usual pink/coral/orange lipsticks. But after seeing a picture on the Internet a girl wearing it, it just looked so damn good! Queue ROSERIN - Described on the packaging as a 'plum rose'. A very apt description I would say.  Up next is SIREEDAN - described as a 'peachy nude', again bang on with the description. This is a perfect lipstick for day to day wear as it's that 'your lips but better' colour. And lastly, but definitely not least, is MICAVEL - a 'creamy coral'. So true, this is a very light coral/apricot colour and is great if your getting into oranges or corals. This is a very good colour to star

PRODUCT REVIEW - MAX FACTOR COLOUR ELIXIR LIP LINERS

Image
These have become my favourite drug store lip liners! Max Factor has come out with a pretty great shade range from nudes to pinks to browns to reds! Horaay! I have found these last a good 5 hours plus and the don't dry your lips out like some liners can...These are easily sharpened and last a long while (ie. use) My favourite colour is Pink Petal, which is a nudey pink, like a 'your lips but better' colour (It looks completely a different colour in these photos by the way!) I have also found that Red Rush last ages and doesn't bleed and it matches most of my red lipsticks (winner!) I would say that these aren't the cheapest drug store lip liners, retailing at £4.99. The texture of these it great, they are quite creamy and sit on the lips very comfortably and the pigmentation of these are very good. At some reviews I have looked at said they loved the product but when comes to sharpening it, it breaks...this has not been an issue for me personally, so make sure yo
