Samarité Skincare Review - 1 Month Update

 Samarité kindly sent over some of their products* for me to try last month and I thought I would give a 1 month update. I love nothing more than being able to fully test a product before writing a final review, so over the past month I've incorporated these products into my AM and PM skincare routine.
  

The first product Samatiré sent over was the Divine Elixir. This is probably my favourite product from the collection. It's a really lovely lightweight elixir, that performs and feels like an essence. One thing I love about this is how quickly it absorbs into my skin. It's not greasy or oily, so is perfect as part of my AM and PM skincare routine. Since using this, I have found my skin is glowing and I mean glowing... I've ditched highlighter completely since using this. My skin looks like I've just had a facial every time I use this, my skin is juicy, plump and super hydrated. 
 - The only con is the shelf life is 6 months, which isn't that long for a product of this size. So I would only purchase this if you are thinking of using it in your AM and PM routine. 

The second product is the Divine Cream. This is recommended for people with dry skin and Rosacea. As someone with dry skin, I often find thick creams border on greasy, but this is perfect. It's a rich, thick cream that is perfect for winter and anyone suffering dry skin. It leaves my skin glowing and I love that this product doubles up as an eye cream.  I think this is perfect for anyone wanting a little skin TLC over winter, no matter what skin type. 

The third product is the Supreme Balm. This is a kind of multi-purpose product. If you're a fan of Weleda Skin food or Egyptian Magic Cream you'll love this. I love using this on specific areas I have dry skin. My chin, my elbows, my knees. It is a little on the oily side so if you're not into those kind of products, I would stick to the Divine Cream.

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...

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...

Glossier Skywash Review

Whenever Glossier launches anything, I just can't resist! I always loved the idea of swipe on liquid eyeshadows, but Glossiers lidstar's were just too shimmery for my taste... but Skywash.... right up my alley! These are matte liquid Eyeshadows, which claim to be buildable, long lasting (up to twelve hours) and easy to apply. I bought the shades echo, a cocoa brown and terra, a warm orange based brown. I love the concealer, doe foot like applicator, as it is small enough to swipe a good amount on my eyelid, without smearing it everywhere. I honestly can't tell you how easy these are to apply and blend out. A quick swipe on my eye and tap tap tap... I have a gorgeous wash of colour that's not patchy and looks divine! I love how quick and easy these are to apply and the fact they applied evenly really shocked me. They are also buildable, applying two coats gives me more of an evening look and a stronger wash of colour. To be honest... they aren't super long wear...
