New products April 2014 #1

Hey all

This week I recently got some new Clinque products. I went for cult favourites really, I'm sure you have all heard of them.  I had to share anyway I am that excited. 

Firstly I got Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm. I have been lusting after this ever since I finished my Antipodes Grapeseed butter Cleanser. This one is talked about a lot in the blog and YouTube world, so was something I just had to try myself. I recently have felt lost with my skin care routine as my skin is slowly becoming more like it's normal self after treatment (minus the acne, for now). It can feel like I am not taking care of it properly do I am excited to have a new high end product to motivate me with taking better care of my skin. 

The other talked about product I picked up is the Bottom Lash Mascara. I'm awful with putting mascara on my bottom lashes and when I try I don't think it looks any good, I'm hope this mascara will make me a pro while giving my eyes an extra pop. This isn't an essential product to anyone's makeup collection but I am worth it, right? 

I also got two samples while I was there and they are the clarifying lotion and the liquid facial soap. I haven't heard that much about either of these products. Only that my mother raves about the lotion. Looking forward to trying them out and letting you know how they are.

Spotlight Sunday #11 Antipodes Grapeseed Butter Cleanser

I got this cleanser months ago off ebay at reduced price, ($12 + $6.95 P.P, $18.95). I had not heard anything about the brand when I purchased the cleanser but I had that week purchases my friend Maddy their eye cream, so I wanted to try the brand myself. I am so glad I purchased this that as I love it and believe it has saved my skin this year. It shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that I have dry skin and this cleanser is targeted towards dry or mature skin.

I will either just put it straight on my face or rub it beteween my hands until it forms an oil. Then I will massage it into my face until I feel my face is clean. It is difficult to get off so a wash washer ( flannel) is need or a lot of water. I'm not going to lie some days I will keep a bit of the residue on my face as it feels so moisturiserimg. I think this was a perfect choice of cleanser for me while I was on the medication. The smell of the product is very natural and nature like so if you don't like those smell it may be the best choice but the smell does grow on you and you begin to love it.

Now would I repurchase it right now no as I am broke but in the future I would love to. It is expensive but it is worth it, so if you want to spend more on cleanser to get value and quality I think this would be a great choice.

New Products September 2013

I have recently been using some new products and I thought I would share them with you!

 The Antipodes Grapeseed Butter Cleanser. Also the Clinque Perfectly Real Make Up.

I plan to review these some time soon when I use these. 

I have been using the Clinque for about a month now. The cleanser I have only be using for around a week now. These are two luxury products that will cost a lot of money to re-purchase if I choose to. I will keep you in the loop about them.
