Pink & Purple Dots

Hi guys . First off ... Happy 2018 . I hope this will be a truly magical year for each and everyone of you guys. I hope you had a great Festive season and that you are ready to tackle the new year . A while back I got sent a very cute PR pack from Avon / Justine. As you guys already know - it's no secret that it's one of my favourite brands . In the pack was the Justine Oil Control range - and this was perfect timing.  As you know , I have dry dehydrated skin , but over December / January my skin freaks out and doesn't want to play along with my normal skincare. Which makes perfectly sense since it's extremely hot and humid . So I decided to give the range a try and see how it preforms - and boy oh boy was I surprised. My skin didn't freak out anymore , the range kept my skin matte , yet moisturised at the same time. I've been testing out the range for a few weeks now , and I can genuinely say this range has quickly became my new favourite.  Justine Oi...

Hi guys ! Happy Monday. How was your weekend ?? A little while back all the bloggers were raving about  TheBeautifulStore  Tara and Jack face masks - and at that stage I was pretty intrigued to try it out myself - but I had tons of sheet masks in my pile and let's be real - I'm a little lazy with masks that needs to be washed off , wiped off or peeled off. But I decided to bite the bullet and just try the masks. When I ordered the Tara and Jack masks where buy any amount get the same amount free. So why not? That makes the masks a better deal since they are pricier (and with good reason - these masks are amazing ). I have in the meantime repurchased a million more of these masks and a few other variants too - but those I will do in a separate review soon.  Tara & Jack Shaker Mask with Apple Stem Cells Okay , I was sceptical about this masks the most. You get sent a little plastic container with your order - and you have to open the sachet, put the powder in...

Hi guys ! Happy Monday. How was your weekend ? A little while ago REN was kind enough to send me their latest product launching today - The REN Flash Hydro Boost - which is a water based hydration booster. I have dehydrated skin - so I always love to bring hydrating products into my routine. I'm really a skincare junkie - and for good reason. I love using great skincare products and can create such a great canvas for any make-up you want to add to your routine.  This product has such an unique texture . It applies like a cream - and then you add a little bit of water to wet your fingertips and massage into the skin. The product absorbs pretty quickly and does make my skin look plumper , smoother and a lot more hydrated. The Hydro - Boost helps your skin lock in the moisture. I have been using this in the evening (and even sometimes in the morning if I need the extra hydration) and I have noticed a huge difference in my skin - it's definitely more ...

Hi guys ! Happy Friday. How is your week been so far ? I have been crazy busy the last few days - hopefully next week I will be back to normal.  I was lucky enough to be selected as one of the  BeautyBulletin  Influencers to test out the Neutrogena Hydro Boost range - and I was pretty excited. As I've mentioned a million times here on the blog - I do suffer from dehydrated skin. The Hydro Boost range is specifically created to help combat the effects of dehydrated skin , and help nourish the skin . The Neutrogena Hydro Boost range consists of hydrating facial cleansers and moisturisers. Their unique Hyalurolic Acid Gel Matrix creates a hydration reservoir and works with the skin's natural moisture system to replenish , restore and deliver hydration throughout the day . It leaves your skin supple - and ready to bounce back to healthy hydrated skin.  One of the main reason my skin went from oily to more normal dehydrated skin, was most l...

Hi guys ! Happy Monday ? How has your weekend been ? If you follow me on Instagram  you may have noticed that I love Sheet Masks . I might have a slight obsession with them. I feel they are such an amazing addition to my skincare routine and I really see a difference using them since turning 30.  Skin Republic was having a little give-away on Instragram a while back , and I entered . The prize was their 4 week Challenge kit - where you get a total of 8 Collagen Infusion masks - 2 for each week. Since I have used this brand before (but not this particular mask) I was so happy when I won.  Some of my Instagram photos I like that sheet masks are SUPER easy. You can your face , put on the mask and relax and afterwards pat the remaining essence into the skin . No need to wash off. Honestly - I think that's one of the main reasons I love sheet masks so much. I can watch a series on TV and get gorgeous skin at the same time. The Collagen Infusion Face Mask will help...

Hi guys ! Happy Friday. How has your week been so far ? Any exciting weekend plans ? One of my biggest concerns in Winter time is dehydrated skin . I don't drink nearly enough water like I do in summer, so I really notice this first in my skin. And as much as I don't like to admit it - drinking a lot of coffee worsens the situation. I recently discovered three amazing face oils that help me keep my skin amazingly soft and hydrated. Even when I'm sick ( like I currently am ). Two of these oils are a little bit richer and I keep them more for my night time skincare routine, but one is perfect for everyday use and even to apply foundation with . So let's get on to the 3 magical oils : Lipodil Overnight Face Treatment Oil R80  Okay so I will admit I did buy the Woman and Health magazine in June just for this freebie. I always wanted to try it out and I thought what better way then buying a magazine ( weekend reading ) and getting the oil to try out. And...
