Miss GlossyBox November/December 2013...

So after 2 months of disappointing Glossyboxes I decided I was going to try out the Miss Glossybox that is available every 2 months for £7 plus p+p so it works out around £10 for every 2 months.

 

I got my box in 2 days ago and this is me just getting round to opening it, and if I'm honest I was pleasantly surprised with what was inside.

In side there was a 50ml can of So...?Sinful body spray. It actually smells quite nice, its a very girlie smell and its an ideal size to put in my handbag for when I'm out and about.

There was a Jelly Pong Pong 2-in-1 shadow/eyeliner pencil in a bronzy shade. will be very nice to add to a neutral smoky eye look.

Next is another perfume sample (Hate Perfume Samples!!!) that my daughter will do doubt have because I don't like the perfume. I got a sample of Lacoste 'Touch of Pink'

Then there was Little Mix nail wraps inspired by Jesy from Little Mix, these are actually pretty cool looking. Jesy says these nail wraps are inspired by art pop, comic book and graffiti and she has done a great job! These would look great for most occasions and I think you would have people commenting on them everywhere you went :)!

 

 

And last but not least there was a full sized bottle of Clear Start from Dermalogica, it is a Breakout Clearing Foaming Wash. My skin tends to be breaking out quite a lot just now so I'm looking forward to trying this.

 

All in all I think I actually prefer this box to the last 2 glossyboxes I have received.

 

leave me a comment and ket me know what you think if this Miss Glossybox :)

My Daily Dermalogica Skincare Routine.

hey guys, today I have decided to write a blog post on my daily skincare routine (you may have guessed that from the title of the blog lol) So my skin is horrible in my opinion, it is constantly oily, my make up never stays on longer than 2/3 hours, Its prone to breakouts and just never really feels 100% clean.. that was before I purchased my new skincare products from Dermalogica!!

 

after doing some looking around online for a new skincare I came across the dermalogica website. As I was looking around on the website I noticed they have a selection of skincare kits. I seen there was one for oily skin so I decided to purchase it. it cost me £25.50 and I got some free sample goodies with it also. The sizes of the bottles in this kit are travel size bottles so its perfect for trying the product out before you buy the full sized ones.

 

 

In the kit for oily skin I got Dermal Clay Cleanser 50ml, Multi-Active Toner 50ml, Oil Control Lotion 22ml, Skin Prep Scrub 22ml, Total Eye Care 4ml, Pre-Cleanse (sample) and Skin Refining Masque (sample).

All I can say on these products is WOW!! I have never had a skincare that has worked so well on my skin.

 

The Dermal Clay Cleanser leaves your face feeling clean, cool and refreshed. You simply dampen your face, place a small amount of cleanser on your hands, massage into your face then rince with warm water. I use this morning and night.

The Multi-Active Toner is nothing like I have ever had before, it comes in a spray bottle which you spray all over face after cleansing. It smells and feels nice and cooling on my skin.

The Oil Control Lotion has to be applied directly after the toner. Its a lightweight oil free lotion that doesn't leave my face feeling greasy like some other 'oil free' lotions do.

The Skin Prep Scrub is a very gentle exfoliator, I use it after I have cleansed my face once or twice a week depending on how my skin is that week. It has very fine little grains in it so it doesn't feel as though it is scratching the surface of your skin away but the results afterwards are fab :)!

The Total Eye Care cream is a nice lightweight eye cream, there's not much I can really say on it lol! I have to admit I don't use it all the time mainly because I forget to put it on before I go to bed lol.

 

The Pre-Cleanse sample I got was a tiny little sachet but I got 2 uses out of it. It is a pre-cleansing oil which you massage onto your face whilst it is dry and you have dry (clean) hands. Then I wet my hands and massage the oil again until it turns a white colour then I rinse it all off and cleanse my face with the clay cleanser.  Having very oily skin I was a bit wary of using oil on my skin but the after effects were amazing. The oil helps break down all the make up and dirt from your skin so the cleanser can do its job and cleanse the skin.

I have yet to use the Skin Refining Masque sample I received but I will update this when I do eventually use it.

 

All in all my review on this particular kit from Dermalogica is that it is AMAZING. Its an affordable way to try out the products before you buy the full sized ones.  I've had this kit for 2 and a half weeks now and I still have 2/3rd's of the bottles full. My skin these days is smooth, mostly oil free, my make up stays on, my breakout of spots has cleared right up, I just can't fault these products at all! I will be purchasing the full sized products when these ones run out :)!!
