Hello all, how has the week/month been treating you? Hope great?
Life update......Been having all my new year resolutions on my mind lately.....Have I accomplished any? Believe it or not, hit one goal! Yippeeee....
Still have my major goals to accomplish and believe I will hit them all this year.....Working hard at it and I believe I will hit them goals......
Lord help me!!!!! I put myself in your hands.....Yeah! I am religious......That is just me....
Back to the topic at hand. Lord! I do run through products! Then again I took a break from posting so I racked them up quite a bit........…..
I seem to run through brow products a lot and quickly especially brow pencils. I tried the juvia's place brow pencil in dark brown shade. It has the spooly at the other end and the pencil itself is quite thin so easy to draw hair like strokes. highly pigmented so the shade pops on you.
I am a fan of this product and part of daily routine. best of all, you all know Juvia's place and sales, got it at about 70% off, so worth the value. Full rice is USD12. Would I pay that for this product? No! Get it on a sale. You can get similar from Nyx at a cheaper price.
I love beauty pie for skincare. They are the absolute best (have a post about beauty pie skincare expert recommendations coming up in a post soon). Got their moisture cream. I am certain I have reviewed this earlier and my feelings are still the same. When I buy this cream tub, does not provide enough body hydration. Pour macula oil, bio oil and organ oil into it to make it useable. Yep! No point creaming your body and not have enough hydration.
Said it a ton of times, Murad products are just overpriced for what they do. I got the Murad hydrating toner in a subscription box. Not enamoured with using it but decided to test it out.
Punish me and save yourself a ton of money if possible.
This goes for USD39. This goes on your face non sticky, hydrating at the point of spraying it on and has a nice and faint scent. That is all the positives I can offer.
Besides that, does nothing! Used the whole bottle and its a bunch of nothing! You can buy a refreshing spray that also goes over your makeup even for less than USD5. You do not need this!
Beautypie perfumes...Like I have earlier mentioned I find it hard to review perfumes because it just so personal but must stick my toe in.
A lot has been said about beauty pie perfumes. Good and bad.
For me, this is something you can use when you potter around the house or working from home. The scent reminds me of Jo Malone perfumes. However this dis not last on my skin. Disappeared after about 2 hours. The scent however is quite nice.
Lamer face cream - received a few deluxe samples for the lamer face cream..... been using for a while. I quite like this...Its thick, creamy, very hydrating and layers very well with treatments, serums, makeup, despite its thickness, this does not pile no matter how much you have on, does not make your skin heavy. This is just lovely goodness.
Battle of the brush cleaners?
Shopmissa offers several solid brush soaps in a tin. The go for USD1.55 (the site is on sale and you can get an additional 11% off). This brush soap is pretty good and gets the job done. My one peeve is it takes a while to get going so that elongates the process of washing your makeup brushes.
Sigma brush shampoo. This lasts a long time. Does the job but not completely, you will need something else to fully get your brushes clean. Goes for US19. For that price, I say look elsewhere.
You can buy cheaper that works better elsewhere.
I love the Biossance squalene oil. This is one of their best product in my opinion. It easily absorbs, its like your skin is thirsty and gulps this down.
Can be used hair, face and body. Very versatile oil. The 100ml goes for £25 and the 200ml goes for £37.
If interested, I advise getting this via the Biossance website. They run very good discounts which increase their affordability.
Ole Hendriksen dark spot toner - Boy!!!!! I HATE this toner. Ruined my face. Yes! Was not going to give it the satisfaction of ruining my face and escaping down the drain! I used the sucker up!
Used this and even wore sunscreen daily and yet, it darkened the perimeter of my face. Did not fade any of my dark spots.
This is worse than a waste of money, should come with a warning label. AVOID at all costs. Absolutely terrible product.
I was not alone in this horrid review of this product, my sister used it to, dumped it after 2 weeks because she experienced the same darker skin on the perimeter of her face.
A regret purchase.
Trying not to have this too long post... Will stop here. Almost caught up ehh my empties posts....
Well, here is to hoping, I have not bored you to sleep yet... thanks for reading and will catch up next week. I have really good post up next week. Take care folks!!!
