Huda Beauty Wishful Yo-Glow Enzyme Scrub

Single use sample of Huda Beauty Wishful Yo-Glow Enzyme Scrub Who for: Anyone who wants two types of scrub in one First impressions: Will there be enough to do my face neck and décolleté After one week: Was a single use sample After one month: Was a single use sample Stockists: FeelUnique, Huda Beauty, Boots, Selfridges, I received a sample of this with an order, it was only a single use.   I wondered if there was enough but there was.   Not only does this luscious cream have a physical exfoliant but also an enzyme one too.   At first, I did not notice the physical element of the scrub until I had been massaging the product into my skin for a few seconds.   The more I massaged the product into my skin the more it seemed to clump together.   You can either splash it off or as I did take it off using a muslin cloth.   Some scrubs leave bits on my skin, this didn’t and not only leaving my skin feeling and looking soft but hydrated too.   This is an ideal product

Urban Decay Eye Shadow Primer Potion Original

Travel size tube of Urban Decay Eye Shadow Primer Potion Original Who for: Anyone who wants their eyeshadow to last all day and to be vibrant First impressions: Looks like any ordinary primer After one week: Eyeshadows look great and don’t crease After one month: To be updated Stockists: Urban Decay, LookFantastic, Debenhams, John Lewis, Selfridges, FeelUnique, Boots, House of Fraser I don’t wear eyeshadow as much as I used to as I am a homebody – my look when I go out is eyeliner and mascara.   Also because of my dry eye and MGD I find wearing eyeshadow difficult as the fallout makes my eyes very sore and bloodshot.   I bought this as I wanted to wear some eyeshadow and had hoped that this would prevent any problems with my eyes.   It did and the eyeshadows not only stayed on all day but looked more vibrant and defined than without.   A small amount and I mean a small amount either applied with fingers or a brush goes along way.   It gives the eyelid a skin

Benefit The Porefessional: Hydrate Face Primer

Packaging and tube of Benefit The Porefessional: Hydrate Face Primer Who for: Anyone who wants a primer that hydrates as well as minimising pores First impressions: Looks like the original primer but has a cooling effect on the skin After one week: Skin looks great even without foundation After one month: With and without foundation my skin looks hydrated and pores are not visible. Stockists: Benefits, Boots, John Lewis, House of Fraser, Debenham, QVC UK This is a great edition to the Porefessional range.   It has all the benefits of the original Porefessional it just has the added benefit of the hyaluronic acid that provides the skin with 12 hours hydration.   Sometimes, I found the original could be a little dry, this isn’t.   As you apply it to the skin, the skin feels cool where the primer is blended into the skin.   It leaves the skin with a velvet matte finish that looks perfect without foundation and helps adhere the foundation to the skin perfectly.   Th

CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser

Bottle of CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser Who for: Anyone who wants a great morning cleanser First impressions: Thick lotion After one week: Skin feels hydrated and soft After one month: Skins looks and feels healthy. Stockists: Boots, Lloyds Pharmacy, CeraVe I like to use this as my morning cleansing or both morning and night if I have not been wearing makeup.   It is a nice thick lotion that one pump is enough to cover my face, neck and décolleté.   I have used it to remove makeup and it does, but I prefer to use it as a morning cleansing with a muslin cloth.   It doesn’t foam and is very comforting to a sensitive skin.   There is plenty of slip so that you can massage areas that need work without hurting your skin.   It can be splashed off if you don’t like using a face cloth or muslin cloth.   My skin doesn’t feel tight either straight after removing it or later in the day, which is great as some cleanser, I have used have left my skin feeling tight my lunchtime.
