  Product: Elizabeth Arden Hyaluronic Acid Ceramide Capsules Hydra-Plumping Serum   Who for: Anyone who wants to visibly plumper and hydrated skin   First impressions: Will there be enough   After one week: Skin looks hydrated   After one month: Skin looks hydrate and healthy   Stockists: Elizabeth Arden, FeelUnique, Boots, Lookfantastic   I was sent these as a sample.  I have tried capsules in the past and have found how surprised ow much there is in the capsules and how far I can apply it.  These capsules have enough for my face, neck, and décolletage.  It is a thick creamy consistence that once warmed in the fingers applies like silk and leaves the skin feeling soft.  My skin felt hydrated for at least 24 hours without feeling tight or sore.  It worked well with the Curél Milk underneath.

SensatioNail Gel Polish - Gray Day

  Product: SensatioNail Gel Polish - Grey Day   Who for: Anyone who wants gel polish at home   First impressions: Great colour   After one week: Has a slight shimmer   After one month: Great coverage and long lasting   Stockists: Boots, NailPolishDirect, Superdrug   Is anyone else having difficulty in locating this range.  I know that they closed their UK website and offices in Birmingham but trying to find colours is becoming difficult.   This is a stunning grey shade that can be worn every day.  It has a silver sheen to it which makes it softer than a matte grey.  It is easy to apply, one coat gives a sheer finish, two coats give a more solid finish.  I like to apply three coats in order to give it depth and enhance the silver sheen to it.  The brush coats each nails with the correct amount of product in three simple swipes allowing you to build the colour and fill in any areas that have not quite covered  correctly without disturbing what you have already a

Fenty Beauty Flypencil Longwear Pencil Eyeliner - BankTank

  Product: Fenty Beauty Flypencil Longwear Pencil Eyeliner – BankTank   Who for: Anyone who wants smudge and water-resistant long wear eyeliner   First impressions : Like the colour   After one week: Creamy and does not tug my eye area   After one month: Brilliant for autumn   Stockists: Fenty Beauty, Boots, Harvey Nichols   I bought this as I wanted a change from the Benefit Blue and black eye liner.  I picked this colour as I have hazel eyes and hoped it would enhance them which it does.  I like the fact that it has a matte finish once it has dried down, that was a bonus.  It is very creamy and draws on the eyelid smoothly without dragging which is great as I have found that my eye lashes and skin can be sore when I am having trouble with my dry eye.  I found that it irritated my waterline when I applied it but that could be because I was having a really bad day with my dry eye so I apply it to upper and lower lash line then apply a different eyeliner in my upp

Fenty Beauty Pro Kiss'r Luscious Lip Balm – Hint Hint

  Product: Fenty Beauty Pro Kiss'r Luscious Lip Balm – Hint Hint   Who for: Anyone who wants to soften and nourish their lips   First impressions: Hope this does not dry my lips out   After one week: Love it   After one month: Love it – the texture, the feel on my lips   Stockists: FentyBeauty, Boots, Harvey Nichols   Boots currently only stock the Hint Hint shade.  Hopefully, they will stock the other colours in due course.  As with lip scrubs my lips do not like anything on them be it scrub, gloss or lipstick they feel sore and flake which makes them look pale and dry.  This leaves my lips feeling soft and hydrated – does not make them flake or look dry even after an hour.  My lips are looking the best they have in years.  It is a joy to use.
