When I was asked to test this spot treatment product I immediately wondered how I was going to manage it as my skin was completely blemish-free at the time. But then, like clockwork I developed a red throbbing painful pimple on my temple and another one on the left hand side of my jawline. I wasn’t sure whether to curse the skin gods or praise them for landing this product in my lap so I decided … [Read more...]
I don’t know anybody who hasn’t suffered from contact dermatitis at some point in their life. Even those without sensitive skin have found themselves having a reaction to something. When a breakout occurs the first things usually blamed are changing your detergent or some new foodstuff that you tried. The one thing I would never have considered as a cause is my nail polish! However, it … [Read more...]
I am a big fan of rose extracts and oils as an ingredient in beauty products and I had heard great things about Ziaja, a Polish company producing skin and hair care products based on natural ingredients. Therefore I was very excited to try this out and it didn’t disappoint. The simple packaging belies the lovely product within. The first thing that strikes you is the beautiful scent. If you … [Read more...]
A recent survey revealed that shaving our legs is most women’s lease favourite beauty chore. It’s not hard to see why. Shaving is a harsh procedure that drags the skin and can be very drying. And who hasn’t suffered those annoying little nicks that look tiny but bleed for what seems like forever! Like everything, your choice of tool can affect your experience and, handy as they may be, … [Read more...]
There are literally thousands of mascaras on the market. It seems there is mascara for everything – to open your eyes, to enhance your eye colour, to lengthen, strengthen, fatten, curl… You name it and there’s a product that claims to do it. However what most people I’ve spoken to want is mascara that does what it says on the tin. They want length and curl and their eyes to pop. It is rare … [Read more...]
I have long been a fan of Dr Hauschka skincare products. They don’t rely on unnecessary preservatives or chemicals and their plant-based products smell delicious and are incredibly gentle on the skin. Hence I was hugely excited when they launched their new range of body washes. I suffer from eczema and soap-based products can be very drying on my skin. Equally, heavily perfumed products can … [Read more...]
Pretty much every woman I know has a neutral eyeshadow palette that is something of a go-to on an almost daily basis. However, they also usually end up throwing out a couple of colours as they are either unwearable or they favoured other colours in the palette and just never got around to using them up. This is quite wasteful and can work out rather expensive, so it's nice when a beauty brand … [Read more...]
The Problem: Sensitive, spot prone skin. The Solution: Opt for oil-free products or products specially formulated to reduce sebum production. Avoid harsh products as these will upset sensitive skin. For extra care, a once or twice a week clearing mask is recommended. The Product: Perfect for sensitive skin, Avène’s Cleanance Mask contains the signature Avène Thermal Spring Water to … [Read more...]
The Herbal Essences advert where a woman having an orgasmic experience in the shower as she washes her hair may seem a tad over the top to those who have never used the brand but as anyone who has tried it can testify this isn’t just shampoo – it is a sensorial experience. It’s easy to get lost in the scent of these amazing shampoos and conditioners and best of all, in my experience, they … [Read more...]
This is lightweight formulation can be used either on its own or under moisturiser. The Nuxe experts recommend that anyone with normal to combination skin use it on its own and those with dry to sensitive skin use it under their regular moisturiser. I used it in conjunction with my usual day and night creams as I felt this would work best for me since my skin can be rather sensitive at … [Read more...]
