I’ve tried lots of different sunscreens but feel like I haven’t found “the one” yet. Supergoop’s Unseen Sunscreen is probably the closest I’ve come to finding it but it wasn’t quite there so I’d love some recommendations of products I could try. I prefer a matte look for daytime so nothing that leaves me looking shiny.
Thank you :)

Nothing bad about this product, I love it!!

In my opinion, the ELEMIS Pro Collagen Cleansing Balm is not just a cleanser, it’s an experience. It’s pure luxury and relaxation wrapped up into one very attractive package.

Now I love beautiful packaging. For me, it’s not just about the products inside, although obviously that’s hugely important to me as well, but I want my shelves to be filled with good looking products - it brings me joy when things are aesthetically pleasing. So this gorgeous jar certainly ticks that box for me. ✔️

What about the contents? Once I’ve built up the courage to make that first scoop (always heartbreaking but SO satisfying), I apply it to my dry skin and I’m treated to the softest texture I think I’ve ever experienced. It feels super soft and silky, melting into a luxurious oil as I massage it into my skin. Such a treat 🥰.

The scent at this point is simply wonderful, I can always smell lavender which is perfect for relaxing the senses but it also contains chamomile and eucalyptus which gives me an invigorating boost.

After massaging it into my skin thoroughly and allowing it to melt away my makeup and other unwelcome pollutants that my skin has collected throughout the day, I remove it with a wet flannel. This transforms the oil into a hydrating milk on contact with the water, leaving my skin feeling clean, soft, hydrated and thoroughly nourished 24/7. It really is a feeling that lasts all day!

The first thing that attracted me to these masks is that they come in two pieces. I find this type of mask so much easier to use and get a good fit.

I don’t usually go for gel masks because I find they don’t stick to my skin very well and I hate having to keep readjusting them when I’m supposed to be relaxing. I’m pleased to report that this mask stuck beautifully for the whole 30 minutes of use and felt really soft and comfortable on my skin.

I like that the mask starts to go transparent when it’s time to remove it so, if you’re like me and you often forget to look at the time when you apply a mask, you can just wait for it to go clear and you’ll know your time’s up!

After removing the mask I tapped the remaining solution into my skin, this felt silky soft, there was no stickiness at all. Once it had completely absorbed my skin felt so hydrated and really plump.

Overall, using this mask was an enjoyable experience, I definitely recommend it.

Nothing bad for me, it’s a beautiful oil!

I am a huge fan of facial oils. I have combination skin so there are areas which are prone to feeling a little oily sometimes but that absolutely does NOT mean I shouldn’t be using an oil. In fact, some oils can actually help regulate sebum production which in turn could help resolve or improve oily skin issues! I only ever use oils in my evening routine because I don’t like to look shiny in the daytime, but at night? Shine me right up baby, I want to glow!!

This is an absolute cracker of a facial oil, it contains a blend of 9 Superfood Oils which helps feed the skin and leave it looking plump and smooth. I apply a few drops as the final step in my evening skincare routine. It has a lovely delicate scent and glides onto my skin so smoothly, it doesn’t feel greasy and is a genuine pleasure to apply. 

Since using this oil, I have noticed that my skin feels more healthy and hydrated, I look forward to seeing what it can achieve with long term use.

This silky oil nourishes, moisturises, hydrates and smooths my skin and is my current favourite evening treat. I adore the way it absorbs so nicely but still leaves me with the evening glow that I love so much. Another great thing about this oil is the relaxing aroma which includes lavender, rose absolute, neroli, damask rose and eucalyptus. It gives me a spa-like experience at home so is a real winner in my eyes 🤩

For me there is nothing bad about this product, apart from the price tag maybe. 

Every so often I’ll try a new skincare product and it will simply wow me. This is one of those products.

From the very first moment of opening up the box to discover the most beautiful jar with a spatula neatly and hygienically wrapped inside its own little packet, I knew this was special.
Initially I thought it looked like a thick and luxurious cream but when I applied it, it melted like butter without leaving a greasy residue. I genuinely cannot describe how amazing it feels as the balm glides across my skin, leaving behind a subtle honey scent that I can’t get enough of. I always enjoy applying my skincare products but this is another level of enjoyment! Also, because of the way it melts into my skin, a little goes a long way so I know this jar is really going to last.

As for results, I have definitely noticed that my skin is smoother and looks healthier since switching to this Oil-in Balm. I’m excited to see how it continues to enhance my skin’s youth recovery with long term use.
