Rave review Alpha H liquid gold!

This is definitely an immediate rave review. I have only used this product 3 times but I cannot wait to share it with you. I love love love the results. Alpha H describe this product as a multi-action formula with silk proteins and licorice extract to refine and firm the skin. This product does contain gylcolic acid. I describe this product as smelling a little like a pro-active type product - maybe due to the acid. Its a clear water like substance, that you apply to the face using a cotton pad, it is instantly absorbed by the skin. Advised to use alternate nights, you can either apply the liquid gold followed by a moisturiser or serum or apply without moisturiser or serum and leave on all night for an intensive treatment. Ive been using as an intensive treatment as my skin has definitely not been behaving lately. I feel with this product you can see a definite
difference in your skin from the first use. My skin feels more plump and radiant with pores minimised.I don't feel this product is too drying on the skin but I would recommend using a good moisturiser with an SPF the following morning and the nights your not using the treatment. It appears to be excellent on spot prone skin too, I did have a few blemishes that were dried out and reduced massively in size by the next morning. This is ideal for using a night before a big event such as a party/night out.

Due to the gylcolic acid I feel the dead skin cells are removed from my face leaving a much clearer radiant look. I cannot say enough good things about this product and highly recommend. The only slight negative maybe for some is that on the first use you may feel some tingling to your skin but this went away following the first use, definitely was not irritation just a slight tingle. I think I noticed this because it does say on the bottle and was more of a 'o yeah it does tingle' don't think I would of noticed otherwise. I have combination skin and I havent noticed any drying areas as of yet, however I have only used this item three times. I will promise to update in a few weeks and let you all know how I am getting on.

This item appears widely available online. I bought from Beauty Bay for around £27 with free delivery, QVC also do a great offer but never appears to be in stock so check them both out. I love to know how other long time users are getting on, please leave a comment.

Soap and Glory....galore!

So I have not done a blog post for ages because I have been super super busy! I love updating my blog so hate that it has had to take a back seat, but I have loads and loads to update you on the wonderful products i've come across :-) So firstly a few weeks back I was taking a shower and realised every single product in there was Soap and Glory and I realised I have not done a post on them at all!

So which one to start with? Ok one of my favourites is the Girligo body mositurising mist. I love this product because it is ideal for taking away or to the gym! Its quick and easy and has a lovely smell and feels great on my skin! I feel this is ideal for people on the go or in a rush where you can just jump out the shower and moisturise in an instant! I have to moisturise at least once a day and that is achievable with this product! Its not too heavy on your skin either and dries quickly so you can dress straight away! This product is available from boots for £6.50. Although they do have deals on lots of the time such as 3 for 2 so keep your eyes peeled!

Next is the scrub your nose in it. This product is a facial exfoliator which is great and I prefer to use it after a heavy night out. It will remove all my make up and leave my skin feeling soft which I  need especially as my skin is never great after a weekend of partying! The grains are not to rough but do feel like your getting a good scrub! Although I will say I have not noticed a huge reduction in my pore size. This is available from boots also for £7.40. You do get 125mls which is a good size and you can use it as a face mask too!

My collection also includes Flake away which is a gorgeous smelling exfoliator that leaves my skin so soft and also leaves my skin with an oily finish. I need a good exfoliator in my life due to my love of fake tan and this one is perfect! Well priced at £7.00. I will add though that I am completely in love with the breakfast scrub also. This smells so good I want to eat it! Priced slightly higher at £9.50.

And lastly this one was not in the shower but in my bathroom is the famous righteous body butter! Which has raving reviews on all blogs, due to the amazing smell and texture. My skin is so smooth after using this! Im sure all beauty addicts have tried this product, Although I have the pot which is not ideal I have seen the bottled butter with the pump which is much more practical! It is priced at £10.00 and that is for 500mls!

Overall I do love soap and glory products. There collection definitely has something for everyone and keep your eyes out for the gift sets that come out occassionally as they are excellent value for money. These are great for first time users to sample a variety of products!

Take the day off...

So my mum has a load of these as they seem to always come in the Clinque bonus time! So over Christmas she offered me a bottle so I thought I would give it a try! I find my eye make up a nightmare to remove and even when you think it's all gone you wake up with panda eyes! My mascara, the Daniel Sandler is amazing (full review below) but removing it is hard work. Well it's a different story now, this stuff is amazing! Gentle on the eyes and removes every scrap of eye makeup. It has an oily constitution and I apply a small amount to a make up pad and the make up glides off, which is great for the tender skin under your eyes. Highly recommended. Its designed for lashes, lids and lips. Ive not tried it on my lips so cannot comment on that aspect! Also suitable for contact lens wearers which is a bonus as my mum wears contact lenses and know how irritanting some products can be. If your still not convinced....this product won She magazines 2011 best eye make up remover! This product is available from Clinique stores and all clinique counters within department stores or alternatively you can buy online. Its priced at £15.50 for 125mls although keep your eye out for bonus time when you may get it included in the gift when you buy 2 products!
