Plenaire Skincare Review

 

I'm not gonna lie, the first time I saw Plenaire's packaging I fell in love. It really was love at first sight. I would go as far to say it's my favourite product packaging of all time.The more I looked into the products, the further in love I fell. Plenaire kindly allowed me to choose some of their products* to try and here are my thoughts.

The first product I chose was the Rose Jelly Gentle Makeup Remover. The texture really intrigued me and I'm a sucker for anything rose related when it comes to skincare. The texture is really unique, It melts on to the face like a  cleansing balm, but removes makeup like an oil. I absolutely love this product, it removes my makeup thoroughly and doesn't strip my skin. There is a slight fragrance, but it's really subtle, not overwhelming or intense. The only thing I would say, is I find this stings my eyes a little, but ever since I've been on accutane, my eyes have been super dry and sensitive (I use drops every day), So this didn't really bother me as I have the same experience with other makeup removers.

Now, to be honest, the next product I actually chose was Skin Frosting ( the hydrating mask) but I was accidentally sent the Tripler 3 in 1 exfoliating clay. Normally I stay clear of anything with the word exfoliating in, as it's usually too harsh on my skin. I thought I would give this a go as it was sent to me and I was really pleasantly surprised! The consistency of the mask similar to a mousse, which is so satisfying on the skin. It dries down, but is still easy to remove. I also found the exfoliator part of the product, to be nice and not too intense. It really is the perfect mask if you have dry skin and want a little exfoliation, but nothing harsh. My skin looked super smooth and glowy after using this and didn't feel tight or dry. 

Another product I chose was droplet. A lightweight moisture gel. I love gel moisturisers, especially as part of my morning routine as they absorb quickly and provide great hydration. Droplet does just that! A little bit goes a long way and my skin feels super hydrated throughout the day. Out of all the products, this definitely has the strongest fragrance. It still isn't overwhelming and disappears almost instantly when you apply it, but if fragrance isn't your thing, this product may not be for you. I also find this is a great makeup primer as my skin feels super smooth after using this and my makeup glides onto my skin! 

Overall, I have definitely found a new brand I love. I definitely want to try more from Plenaire and have my eye on the skin frosting and violet paste. It really is wonderful to feel excited about a brand and wonder what they will release next ?(I'm hoping for lip balms!)

June Empties

I can't believe another month has rolled around and it's time for another monthly empties review. I got through six products this month (I know, I'm proud) and it was a bit of a mix of everything; Haircare, Skincare and makeup. Firstly, I used up my La Roche Posay Anthelios Ultra Sensitive SPF 50 Sunscreen. This isn't my favourite SPF but it does do the job. I wear three pumps of this on my face every day and it has lasted about 3 months. I think the formula is ok it can feel a bit sticky and takes a while to sink in but it isn't my favourite but it isn't a product I don't like. I have repurchased this, because SPF is THE most important part of my skincare routine and when I ran out I knew I could run to Superdrug and repurchase this, because I did not want to go without. Secondly, I finished my Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation. I cannot remember the last time I finished a foundation! This is, without a doubt, my favourite drugstore foundation. It bl...

July Empties

 Ahhh another month another empties blog. I actually got through quite a bit of makeup this month, which is unusual for me as it's usually skincare I crank through.  The first product I used up was my beloved Glossier Futuredew. I didn't realise how much I loved this until it was gone. My makeup feels so much different without this as a base and I do miss it as part of my makeup routine. I have a few other primers to get through but I will definitely repurchase this one in the future. The second product I used was my benefit liquid eyeliner. I did like this liner; it's opaque, the felt tip is quite nice and it lasted such a long time before drying up. I do prefer brush tipped eyeliners as I find with hooded eyes my winged eyeliner always looks a lot more precise than with a pen style. So I purchased the KVD liquid eyeliner instead, but the benefit eyeliner is great just not my favourite.  My third empty is my smash box primer water. I adore this spray, it comes out as a f...

Reviewing Bioderma's Hydrabio Range

If you've followed my blog for a few years, you'll know Bioderma is one of my favourite skincare brands. Their Micellar water is a product I refuse to live without and I've gone through too many to count. I was over the moon when Bioderma kindly sent me their Hydrabio Range* to try. The Hydrabio range is aimed at combating dehydrated, dry, skin, which I'm especially prone to in winter. 1. Hydrabio Makeup Removing Micellar Water Now, Bioderma's Sensibio micellar water is a holy grail skincare product in my collection. Believe it or not, I didn't realise Bioderma did other varieties of micellar water for different skin concerns. I've been using the Hydrabio micellar water for a few days and I do find my skin feels more hydrated and plump, compared to the sensibio one. It removes makeup just as well as the Sensibio micellar water and I find the Hydrabio micellar water to be a little more gentle and soothing. I would definitely repurchase the Hydrabio version in...
