Max Factor Xperience Weightless Foundation 40 Light Ivory
I really
liked this foundation when I first bought it, but for some reason I stopped
using it. Recently after forcing myself to use up all of the foundations I own
because I over buy them, I found myself using it again. I've used
four other foundations by Max Factor and I've liked all of them. I
think Max Factor’s foundations are a fabulous quality and one of the best
brands in my local drugstore. This foundation is a great price at £9.99 and it
lasts me a long time because I don’t need to use a lot to get full coverage. It
feels comfortable on the skin and it lasts a good eight hours. I have the
lightest shade, and it suites my porcelain white skin perfectly. I can see
myself buying this foundation again in the future because its reliable, full
coverage and comfortable.
Sanex Shower Gel Dermo Moisturising
This
shower gel may look plain old boring and smell not so nice but it works wonders
for my dry skin. The gel is thick and I don’t need to use a lot to get a good
lather. It leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed and very importantly
moisturised. It leaves a layer of oil behind on the skin which I like a lot,
because I love the way it makes my skin feel. It’s also great because I don’t
need to moisturise with a different product after a shower or bath. At the
price of £2.19 I will definitely purchase this again.
Aussie Three Minute Miracle Colour Deep Treatment
Don’t
get me wrong this is an amazing deep treatment conditioner at a purse friendly
price of £4.99. But I leave conditioning treatments on way longer than three
minutes and in all honestly this is just as good as any other I have used. It
smells nice and leaves my hair soft and manageable. However I would buy this
again which I have a few times, but I use it as an everyday conditioner rather
than a treatment.
NYX Studio Finishing Powder
I really
like this setting powder because it’s so finely milled and leaves my skin
looking radiant and luminous. It’s brilliant at setting liquid foundation, and
even though it’s white it applies transparent. However its £9.50 for only 6g
which I don’t like so much but the main problem I have is the mess it creates.
Most loose powders are messy but this is stupidly messy. I unscrew the top and
the amount of powder that comes out is just a big waste and for the amount of
product you get to start with, it’s a complete waste of money.
Liz Earle’s Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser
Cleansing
is the most important step in my skin regime. So firstly the bottle
is amazing, I use one pump if I'm not wearing make-up and two pumps if I’ve had
make-up on. The pump applicator makes cleansing your face simple and less
messy, plus you don't waste product like you do with tube design
cleansers. You then apply the cleanser (which smells divine) onto dry skin
or a face full of makeup. I love the fact you don't need to wet your face
before applying the cleanser, because if you’re anything like me, I get my hair
soaked, sleeves wet and the mirror gets splashed. One less thing for my parents
to nag me about. You can also apply the cleanser straight on to a full face or
make-up, which is great if you have been partying till early hours in the
morning, or your lazy like me. You can even use the cleanser on your eyes to
remove eye make-up such as mascara; it does not hurt my eyes in any way. Back
to the regime once you have applied the cleanser on your face and neck you
simply remove the cleanser with one of the pure muslim cloths you get
provided with the product. Although if your removing make-up be prepared for a
make-up covered cloth afterwards. I absolutely love this cleanser and it’s
not a bad price at £14.75 and that includes two muslim cloths. I can see myself
buying this again.
Dermorganic Leave In Treatment
I didn’t
get much use out of this product because it was a sample but I really enjoyed
the amount I had to use. I would apply this to towel dried hair and comb
through and it really made a difference in the time it took for my hair to air
dry. It also made my hair feel soft and manageable but no different to what my
usual Argan Oil treatment does. I wouldn’t buy this again because I didn’t find
it anything special and Its pretty expensive at £8.59 for 30ml and £21.50 for
120ml.
Good Things Ulta Rich Creamy Scrub
The
Ultra Rich Creamy Scrub is fantastic, it does exactly what a body scrub
is supposed to do and it doesn't leave my skin red and blotchy.
The scrub contains pomegranate and red grape with smooth micro beads and
cranberry seeds that work to lift away any dead skin cells while the gentle
creamy formula replaces lost moisture. I like to use this scrub all
over my body before I shave my legs as the scrub prevents any nicks to dead
skin cells or bumpy skin. Remember always exfoliate before applying fake tan!!! However
I do prefer harsher scrubs but I like to use this scrub when my skin feels a
little sensitive. It’s also purse friendly at £4.99.
Eucryl Tooth powder Freshmint
I’ve
been using this powder instead of toothpaste for the last month, and my teeth
look a lot cleaner and whiter. It tastes pleasant and makes my teeth feel a lot
cleaner than my usual toothpaste. I have bought this again and I will continue
too as its only £1.00 and actually works.
Rimmel Gentle Eye Make Up Remover
I’ve
been using this product for months now, and I keep on repurchasing. I like it
because it is gentle and it doesn’t cause any irritation to my eyes or skin. It
removes the toughest make up like mascara and Lime Crime’s Eye Shadow Helper.
It does what it is supposed to do very effectively and Its another purse
friendly price at £3.50! Love it.
