Johnson's Face Care, Moisturising Day Cream

Oh Hello!

Yes I know, my blog has been review crazy lately, but there is just so many great things I want to share with you guys! And next up is this Johnson's Moisturiser. Now as you may know I have combination skin. Oily in the T-zone and normal on the cheeks. Having said that I love a good moisturiser. One that leaves my skin super soft and super glowy. This product definitely delivers! Now this product is marketed as a day cream though I would recommend anyone who has anything other that normal/dry skin to only use this at night. It is a very thick moisturiser and it is too heavy to use under makeup in my opinion anyways, but to each their own.

I use this product at night and apply it over my face, neck and onto my decolletage. I wake up with plumped up and glowy skin. I will admit my skin looks a little oilier in the T-zone but that does not bother me as I always wash my face in the morning and apply my day cream after. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for a good night cream. It has lasted me for ages and I still have a tonne to go! Its also pretty cheap, maybe around 5 euros? Thumbs up in my book!

Thanks for reading guys! Don't forget to comment down below andy products you would like me to try!

Who doesn't Love Inglot??

AMC Highlighting Powder 83

Eyeshadows: 346, 334, 325, Blush: 34

I was recently treated by my lovely boyfriend Paul (Hi Babe :D) to a voucher to Inglot. Now I have used inglot before, we received some products with our makeup kit in college including the gel liner above. I also purchased some eyeshadows, bronzer, lipsticks etc two years ago for my kit but I have since gotten rid of a few of them (GOSHDARNIT!) So I am quite familiar with Inglot products and the quality of them. Speaking of quality, Inglot definitely delivers.

I was slightly at a loss as in to what I should pick up so as I was already familiar with the gel liner and shadows they seemed like a good bet. I chose three shades of purple eyeshadow as I mostly just wear nudes so I wanted to branch out a bit more. Become more adventurous if you will. :) I am super happy with the shades I picked out. All of them are super pigmented and are matte/satin finishes, my favourite. I have not tried the gel liner yet but speaking from the last time I used it it performed great. So more on that later.

The nail polish I picked up is of course a minty colour (if you don't already know I am OBSESSED with mint/blue/turquoise) its gorgeous. I tried it on today and it is super pigmented. Two coats and you are done! Brilliant! They had a vast range of colours, it looked like a rainbow! They have a peachy coral shade that I am dying to get! I very much love my pastels. Who doesn't?

The blush is a shimmery peachy shade, not something I would normally go for having combination skin, but the girl working there convinced me it does not really show up and s just a great natural shade on the skin. As you can see from the swatch, this too is extremely pigmented. I have not tried this yet but if you would like a review please comment below :)

The highlighter, OMG THE HIGHLIGHTER! Its incredible!! I was always slightly afraid of highlighters again because of my combination skin, but after trying this my opinion has completely changed. I love it. It looks beautiful on the cheekbones, cupids bow and of course the browbone. You just have to try it. Simple as.

If you want more in depth reviews on all these products leave you comments below letting me know and I will happily do review them for you once I have tried and tested them more.

Review: Topshop Lipsticks

Confession, I am a lipstick junkie. I love them! Pinks, nudes, reds, plums, you name it I've got it. So, you can imagine my joy when I heard of Topshop's new makeup range. Yes I am late to the party on this one as I bought these lipsticks last year. (oops) But who doesn't love a good lipstick review eh? Yeah? Me neither. So I shall begin by saying these lipsticks are amazing! Being a highstreet clothing shop you would think that their makeup range would be a bit iffy, but not Topshop's. This range is amazing!(I also have a cream blusher which I will review soon) It is affordable, great quality and well worth all the hype.

These lipsticks cost around 8 or 9 euros each and you can purchase them from Topshop's website. After checking the website I am pretty sure the site ships to most countries so win win for everyone! :D I currently have four colours, Pillow Talk, Brighton Rock, Secret Admirer and Tease.

Clearly Secret Admirer would not cooperate..

Brighton Rock: This is a beautiful colour, almost a pinky red colour which I love! Its a satin/matte finish lipstick but it is not as drying as the matte lipsticks from MAC. But if is too matte for you, you can always add a gloss over top.

Tease: I don't wear this colour too often but I still think its gorgeous. Its a very blue toned pink, almost purple. This is a velvet finish shade.

Pillow Talk: This is one of my favourites. Its a light, neutral pink and looks so pretty on. Its a colour that I think will suit lots of different skin tones. Again it is another velvet finish lipstick.

Secret Admirer: I wear this colour most often as I find it just goes with almost every makeup look. Its a peachy colour and is quite similar to Pillow Talk. It's glossier than the three others and is very comfortable on the lips.

Another thing I love is the packaging! Super cute! :D

Review: Biore Triple Action Toner

Most people probably don't think much of toner. I mean its only used to take of leftover cleanser and makeup right? Wrong. What if it could do so much more? Well, I have found just the thing. I have combination to oily skin and I have always found that most toners dry out my skin even in the oily parts. I have tried Clinique toners, Simple Toners, regular Tesco brand toners and they are all the same. Until I found this one. Biore are famous for their nose pore strips (which are absolutely amazing). I have used these for years so I am pretty familiar with the brand. They have recently changed their packaging to blue and white and they have also colour coded their product to help you find exactly what you need. Orange - Complexion Clearing, Blue - Deep Cleansing, Pink - Makeup Removing, and Teal - Nourishing Care.

This toner is oil free, does not clog pores, it also contains witch hazel which soothes the skin. I use this product morning and night. I simply apply it to a cotton pad and wipe over my face and neck (yes neck) avoiding the eye area. I can see all the dirt it has removed and it leaves my skin feeling super clean and fresh. It does not leave it feeling dry, but it does remove shine (Yay!). I follow up with a light moisturizer and carry on with my makeup for the day.

I highly recommend this product for quality and also affordability. It retails in Australia for around $8 but I have also seen it on offer for about $5. Bargain! I have also been using their Warming Anti Blackhead Cleanser and I will have a review up soon.
