My Secret to Soft Hydrated Hands

Hi guys ! Happy Monday . How was your weekend ?

If you follow me on Instagram , you would have seen I bought the Sorbet Moisture Infusing Socks a while back - TAKE A LOOK HERE  . A few days after posting that photo and after the lovely Martie from LivingLightley mentioned that she loved the socks and gloves, I decided to go back to Clicks and get the gloves - and I'm so glad I did ( They were on special too - bonus ! ) 

Sorbet is quickly becoming one of my favourite brands ... I haven't found a product from them I don't love. 

I'm already a big fan of all the Sorbet Hand Creams - my favourite being the Age Control one ( pink ) and the Hydrating one ( Orange ) , so I had big hopes for the gloves. The gloves has a layer of gel inside, making sure your hand cream doesn't go to waste and every last drop get soaked up by your skin. I have to be real - the first time you put these gloves on they feel super creepy and gross , especially with the cream on - but after a few minutes that gross feeling goes away . 

So onto how I use them . If I have a special event or want to do it as a treat on the weekend , I slather on hand cream and leave on the gloves for an hour or two and watch T.V or Youtube videos. But mostly I will make sure to use these gloves once or twice a week , and just before bed use the hand cream , put on the gloves and go to sleep and wake up with gorgeous soft moisturised hands. 

Just a little word of warning - even though I LOVE these gloves , I wouldn't recommend wearing them on super hot nights as the gloves are quite thick and warm. These are perfect for cooler nights . 



Now onto my favourite 3 hand creams I like to use from Sorbet : 


Balancing Hand Cream ( Blue )
"Nurture your hands with essential fatty acid rich Starflower Oil , a revitalising infusion of Rosemary , mineral rich Pearl extract and anti oxidant Vitamin E. Stimulate and promote beautiful hands ."

Hydrating Hand and Nail Cream ( Orange ) 
"Deeply nourish dry hands and nails with Shea Butter and the herbal infusion of Calendula oil. Tangerine brings a boost of Vitamin C. Soothe and nourish skin. Feed your hands ."

Firming Hand Cream ( Pink )
"Powerful , antioxidant-rich Pomegranate is known to promote more youthful hands, while the Omega 3 fatty acids and Vitamin E from Cranberry Oil help to nourish your skin. Helps to moisturise and soften "

The Sorbet Hand Creams retail for R30 at Clicks stores as well as Sorbet Salons . I paid about R45 for the Moisture Infusing Gloves (on sale ) .

What is your secret to soft hydrated hands ?

  1. I think that i must get those gloves! I hope that the Clicks i go to sell them, thanks for including the selling price. Can you perhaps tell me do we need to wash our gloves at some stage ( i think so, but just want to make sure) and if so, must it be hand wash or can we wash it in the washing machine? Thank you for sharing these, Lynette!

    1. Yes, you can wash them carefully by hands. I messed up with the socks and threw them in the washing machine , the gel layer inside did tear up a few places ... But I have hand washed these.

    1. On a hot summer night - yes this is a no go. I don't mind sleeping with them on though , I'm weird like that and can sleep with socks on even when it's extremely hot in summer.

  8. Hello Lynette, i went to Clicks and couldn't find it, but i did find out on their web-page that you must use it bi-weekly and it's re-usable for 3 months! The normal price are R79.95 so i'm glad that you could have purchased at a discount.

Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer Review and Wear Test

Hi guys. Happy Monday. How was your weekend ?? Today I will be sharing my review on the Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer . I have worn this quite a few times since buying the product - so I have a pretty good idea how it preforms. The colour I got was a typical Lynette colour - The Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer in Donut Worry be Happy. This is such a gorgeous fun pink colour. The range does have quite a few colour options - and what I do like about the range is that no top coat is needed. So while I always top coat polish or gel polishes - I didn't when I tested this out. Since I did mention I have worn it quite a few times - I always wore it without top coat. The polish dries amazingly fast - and is dry enough to not make dent marks on it within 20 minutes. Which I think is pretty impressive for a polish without top coat. The brush is on the thicker side - making the polish super easy to apply. I prefer nailpolish brushes like this since it's mostly just one swipe on each

CATRICE TREATMENTS SERUM REVIEW

Hi guys! Happy Wednesday. How was your week? I totally lost a day with the public holidays and Easter Weekend threw into the mix ... I was pretty convinced today was actually Tuesday. As I mentioned in my New on my Beauty Desk post in February - I got a few Catrice serums from their new range to try out. In total I picked up the Hydro serum as well - so today I will give you a rundown on the three serums I chose from the range to my routine.  Overall - I have a pretty good idea of which ones I love - which ones are good and which ones I'm not 100% sold on.  CATRICE HYDRO PLUMPING SERUM  This serum contains 1.5 %  hyaluronic acid and panthenol to plumps up the skin as well as have a soothing effect on the skin. Hyaluronic acid is well known to hydrate the skin and absorbs easily into the skin super quickly. I love using Hyaluronic Acid in the morning before applying make-up as it gives me a hydrated base to work with. Honestly, while I did enjoy using this serum - I do prefer the Sw
