Tub of IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Makeup 3-in-1 Makeup Melting Balm

Who for: Anyone who wants to cleanse their face and remove makeup in one step.

First impressions: Seems hard but a very small amount melts to provide enough to cover face and neck in one go

After one week: My skin likes it

After one month: My skin looks clearer and softer

Stockists: IT Cosmetics, QVC UK, Boots, Selfridges

I ordered this from Boots to collect at my local Boots store.  When I remove the lid and safety cap I noticed that part of the balm was solid.  As this was the first time I had purchased this balm I was not sure that it should be like that.  I had seen it on QVC UK and the pot they showed was a more thicker cream texture.  It didn’t put me off using it and a very small amount no bigger than a thumbnail is enough once melted in my hands to clean my face and neck along with removing my makeup.  Some balm cleansers I have used leave a small amount of eyeliner once I had wiped it off with a muslin cloth.  This didn’t.  Yes you do get panda eyes or eye makeup around your eyes but it is gone all gone once wiped off with either a flannel or muslin cloth.  I have used it in the morning as a first cleanse or a second cleanse at night.  Depending if I have time or not I have used the IT Cosmetics Miracle Water both before and after using the balm as well as on its own.  My skin loves it.  The redness on my cheeks, forehead, chin and nose to me have reduced.  It hasn’t irritated my eyes.  I will be repurchasing this when I have finished the pot.  Not sure when it will be!

Sukin Micellar Cleansing Water

Bottle of Sukin Micellar Cleansing Water My hubby and I have been using Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water, he had read an article in a newspaper and wanted to try it.  This has a fresh smell and both of us like it.  It cleanses the skin well and copes brilliantly with Benefit Roller Lash, it removes it without much rubbing.  I would hold the cotton pad to my eye for a few seconds before gently swiping it away.  There is no residue or stickiness, the fragrance doesn’t last long on the skin once the water is swiped over the skin.  We use both sides of the cotton pad remembering to wipe behind our ears.  Think we will be buying more of it and other products from their range.

Fenty Beauty Icon Semi Matte Lipstick

These are sample sizes which are generous in size.  They are a semi-matte lipstick and smell delicious of cocoa. They are very pigmented which means that they can be applied straight from the bullet, with a brush or with your fingers depending on the look you want to create.  They are long lasting and did not make my lips peel or feel dry.  Pose Queen – is a colour I would wear on those days that I am doing the weekly shopping in jeans etc. It great a great nude and I would wear it on my cheeks too maybe not my eyes – well that’s something to try in the future. The MVP – now this is the date or special occasion lipstick that you want to wear when you want everyone to notice you.  You want to feel powerful. Again, I might wear it on my cheeks – a small amount applied with fingers. Scholar Sista – perfect colour for the office and those Brunch dates.  It’s a shade that will go with everything and make you feel polished, professional.

Bottle of Bleach London Fade to Grey Shampoo Who for: Anyone who wants to maintain their grey hair colour First impressions: Scary colour for a shampoo After one week: Hair is softer and looks greyer than without After one month: To be updated Stockists: Bleach London, Boots, Superdrug, Cult Beauty, LookFantastic I want to improve the salt and pepperiness of my hair.  Well I would like to dye to grey but hubby won’t let me, and this is the nearest I can get to improving the greyness of my hair.  One piece of advice wash your hands after using the shampoo as it has stained my nails – not that I mind I want grey nails too.  The colour of the shampoo is a dark grey violet and is thick and unctuous.  I was a little worried as a patch of my hair seemed not to like it as it became thick and stiff.  But when I washed my hair and applied the second lot of shampoo, my hair became soft and nourished.  The way my hair feels after two washes of my hair with the shamp
