Product: Pai Rosehip BioRegenerate Oil Who for: Anyone and everyone who wants to improve their skin First impressions: Strong smell, scary colour After one week: Skin looks healthy After one month: Skin looks and feels healthy Stockists: Pai, Cult Beauty, LookFantastic, John Lewis This is a little scary in colour.  There is a fresh green woody smell to the oil which is absorbed quickly into the skin.  A small amount goes along way.  Skin feels soft and hydrated with no residue once massaged into the skin.  My skin loves it.  I have applied under my night cream or over my subscription retinol with no problems my skin looks and feels healthier the next day.  I use it once a week or when the peeling stage of using retinol is at its height.  

 Product: KMS Moist Repair Revival Cream My hair likes it when I use a small amount as if I use more than a five pence piece amount it feels sticky and heavy when it has dried.  I also need to wash my hair more than once a week.  If I use a five pence piece amount my hair once dried is full of life, behaves well and keeps its style.

 Product: Forever Infinite by Forever Restoring Crème Who for: Anyone and everyone First impressions: The smell After one week: Skin looks good After one month: Skin looks healthy Stockists: Forever Living Great cream but the smell puts me off it.  Hubby does not like sleeping in the same room with me when I use it.  I have to apply it at least an hour before bed so that the smell has gone.  Because of the smell I did not really enjoy using it, but I noticed that my skin looked better when I used it instead of my prescription Retinol.  My skin looked and felt nourished and smoother the next night.  It was absorbed into the skin easily without leaving a residue 

  Product: Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream Light SPF20 Who for: Anyone who felt the original Magic cream was too heavy for them First impressions: Smells lovely After one week: Skin looks healthy After one month: My new moisturiser  Stockists: Charlotte Tilbury, Feelunique, Selfridges This is a fantastic moisturiser with the added benefit of the SPF which is great for the winter months.  It might be a little rich for some, but my skin loved it and it can be a bit finicky and sensitive towards SPF, but it wasn’t to this.  It gave my skin enough hydration and protection against the rainy weather we have had.  I would apply this and then after half an hour apply separate SPF for summer days, as I normally use a SPF of 50.  The fragrance is pleasant and does not last.  It is quickly absorbed into the skin leaving a great base for makeup if you wear makeup on a daily basis.  Skin looks flawless and smooth.

  Product: Beached Rays for days Who for: Anyone who wants a liquid bronzer First impressions: Too dark for me  After one week: Nice mixed with foundation After one month: Great when you want a more bronzer look Stockists: BeautyBay, Beached  This is a great liquid bronzer as you can use it in multiple ways such as on its own, mixed with primer or foundation.  It can be applied using fingers under or over makeup.  A sponge or brush if mixed with foundation or primer.  It is buildable and leaves the skin with a lovely sheen and does not contain glitter.
