Probably
not the first time you’ve heard it this month but I can’t believe its March! This
year is absolutely flying and I have a few products to share today that as you
can tell by the title, I’m loving!
I won
this last year in a Cult Beauty Instagram competition (lovely feeling!) and it
sat in my collection for a few months while I tried to get some other cleansers
finished. Then I thought life is too short, open all the cleansers and I’m so glad
I did as it’s become one of my favourites! It’s a black oily balm made with
Hungarian moor mud and thermal waters that works to draw out impurities and I
use it as my second cleanse to remove the last traces of my makeup. I find it
very gentle on my skin and a tiny bit goes a long way with this balm! I use the
little scoop to get a bit of product out then warm it up between my fingers and
massage into my face. I’ll then use a damp face cloth to remove and overall I’m
left with smooth, clean, hydrated skin! At £48, this isn’t cheap but I will definitely
be making a repurchase when I finish this – I alternate this with my Emma Hardie
Moringa cleansing balm and both have lasted ages so are well worth the money
for that and how they perform on my skin!
Another
little Cult Beauty gem – I got this in a GWP towards the end of last year and
having never tried a manual cleanser before I didn’t use it straight away as I
was worried it would break me out. Curiosity got the better of me and I tried
it out one morning and haven’t looked back since! Its battery operated, non-chargeable,
waterproof and as you can see from the close up has two cleansing zones – an ultra-fine
one for normal areas and a thicker one for more congested areas. I tend to use the ultra-fine
zone all over my face then concentrate the thicker touch zone on my nose and
chin area. It uses T sonic pulsations to enhance the efficiency of your
cleanser and I have completely fallen in love with this little device and can’t
imagine my morning cleanse without it now! At £29, it’s good for 100 uses and it’s
recommended you use it for a minute each cleanse. It’s hygienic, gentle and
gives a non-irritating exfoliation and I’ve include a photo of my favourite
morning cleansers to use it with! I will definitely be buying a full size
chargeable one when the battery runs out!
I reviewed this just after Christmas but it’s nearly finished and I just had to mention it
again as I’m very fickle with conditioner and apart from the OUAI one I haven’t
found one I want to repurchase since this! I always brush my hair before I wash
it and pat it dry with a towel instead of rubbing it to try and minimise how
many tats I will inevitably be left with but I always have to spend so much
time brushing my hair out because the tangles just come out of nowhere! That
was until I tried this! It’s so gentle and I know every time I brush my hair
after using it I won’t get any giant knots caught in my brush because they are
just not there! It has a really inoffensive scent and is just a dream to use, I can’t
wait to pick up a bigger size!
I got
this in a set with the Aloe Herbs and Rosewater facial spray for Christmas and
while I love it too, I wanted to talk about the Drying Lotion because it’s been
amazing recently on any breakouts I’ve been having! It’s made with a blend of calamine
and salicylic acid and where I usually find spot treatments dry the spot and
skin around it out (all great until it’s a flaky mess with makeup over the next
day) this works on my skin to dry out the spot, all while being soothing and
not drying on the skin around it. It works really well to settle down my
breakouts and they don’t last for as long, hooray! The instructions say don’t
shake solution and use a cotton ear bud to reach the pink sediment at the
bottom then dab onto any spots and it has quite a medicated smell which I love!
I was sent three of these before Christmas and this one in particular is my current
hand bag essential! I go through hand cream so quickly but Nivea is by far my favourite
as I love how soft it makes my hands feel. The scent and how quickly it absorbs
as well as the fact I don’t feel the need to reapply 20 times a day are also plus
points! This is the 75ml so will last ages but doesn’t take up a huge amount of
room in my bag! Love!
That’s
five products I’m currently loving! Let me know if you have tried any of these
before and what you thought of them!
