Hey y'all,
Felt inspired to do a couple of product reviews today; these are some random products that I have been using lately and are all pretty decent, so keep reading to find out more...
1. Simple Sun-Kissed Moisture Cream
So I bought this moisturiser in time for my holiday to Florida over the Easter holidays and thought it would be a good idea as it has both SPF and tanning agents in it. It can be difficult to get a tan and also tan your face without burning it, so I thought this would be an ideal product. For £4.99, it wasn't too bad a price.
I like it as a moistuiser; it has a very mild smell and keeps my skin feeling soft pretty much all day, plus the SPF is great. However, I found that there was no change whatsoever in the complexion of my face .. the tanning element did not work for me at all, which was kind of the reason why I initally bought it. There are a lot of good moisturisers out there but I specifically chose this one because I thought, hey, why not kill two birds with one stone?
Anyway, it's a good moisturiser but I won't be repurchasing it!
2. Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water
As we know, Bioderma is notorious for being the ideal product to remove make-up. Lots of brands have brought out their own versions of cleansing water and I had heard good things about the Garnier one, so decided to pick it up in Tesco when it was on special offer. It normally retails for £4.19, which is quite a good price anyway.
Firstly, I really like the packaging for some reason, haha. As for the product itself, I liked how it felt on my skin - very light in comparison to some make-up removers which are awfully creamy and heavy. This had no smell and got off the majority of make-up. I did have some trouble with my eye make-up, however, and there was still some residue which was annoying to get off, even the next day. When using this water, Garnier says, there is no need to rinse afterwards. I think that's fair enough, but it was a tad oily (I'm just the kind of person that likes to wash my face before bed anyway.)
For the price and the amount you get, I would recommend this product :)
3. Victoria's Secret Fragrance Mist in 'Such a Flirt'
Because summer is practically here, I have been loving this Victoria's Secret mist; this particular scent is really sweet and perfect for the sunny weather. What I love about these mists is that the scent lingers on you and your clothes for a really long time; I have become immune to how I smell but I know my Mum, for example, always comments on how she can smell my perfume; great because there's no need to top it up all the time!
These retail for about £12 - £14 (don't shoot me for not remembering!) but I know there is a deal where you can get 5 for maybe £30 or something similar. They make great presents also.
4. Boots Slanted Tweezers
This is a really random thing to talk about but guys, there's no need to send a ridiculous amount of money on tweezers when you can get a perfectly decent pair at Boots for a mere £1.80! I lost my other tweezers and in despair, headed to the pharmacy to look for some tweezers on the lowest of budgets .. and I wasn't disappointed. To be honest, you just need tweezers to do the job and that's exactly what these do, no more, no less. They are slanted, which I prefer because I feel like there is more of a chance at grabbing those tiny, pesky hairs. Guys, fleeky eyebrows are a must, you know what I'm saying??
OOTD coming soon...
