Finishing Touch Flawless Facial Hair Remover Review – Does It Really Work
The Finishing Touch Flawless Facial Hair Remover is one of those products that I continually eyeballed for several months before finally deciding to buy one. I kept seeing it everywhere, from ads on tv to ads on my laptop as well as on the shelves of several department stores I ventured into. It was a JML product and I’m no stranger to those, in fact, I use their mineral magic face powder which I really love so I was hoping that this little item would be an effective addition to my skincare device collection. But if I’m being honest, I couldn’t help but be sceptical because this was after all…

Sweet Almond Oil For Skin And Hair – My 12 Week Test To See If It Really Works
If I had a pound for every time I heard people talking about how they use sweet almond oil for skin and hair purposes, I’d be swimming in a serious amount of coins by now. And its not just sweet almond oil either, its coconut oil, argan oil, jojoba oil, olive oil, the list just goes on and on. But here’s the thing, do any of these oils actually work and if so, which ones work best on which areas? I personally alternate between three different oils currently and they are sweet almond oil, coconut oil and argan oil but because I interchange them regularly, its very hard to distinguish…

Boots No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Advanced Night Cream Review
The Boots No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Advanced Night Cream is a product that I’ve used intermittently over the years but for some reason, I’ve never gotten around to writing a review on it. I remember when this range was first introduced and there was such a serious amount of hype surrounding it all because of a documentary claiming that this range (the serum in particular) was clinically proven to actually work at reducing wrinkles. Women were literally lining up outside Boots stores before they even opened and stampeding through the aisles to strip the shelves bare faster than you can shake a tic tac. One tabloid newspaper even wrote…

Algenist Elevate Advanced Retinol Serum Review
The Algenist Elevate Advanced Retinol Serum is the new retinol addition to the increasingly popular Algenist range and although I’ve already tried and reviewed their old retinol firming lifting serum, I thought it only fair to try out their new formula. It could, after all, have been a negative replacement rather than an improvement so there really was only one way to find out. Their original retinol serum was a popular product and after trying it, I could fully understand why but after the arrival of the new elevate serum, the old firming lifting serum has slowly been discontinued and has now pretty much vanished off the shelves. Obviously, as…

Manuka Doctor ApiNourish Age-Defying Eye Cream Review
I love Manuka Doctor products and their Age-Defying Eye Cream is no exception. You see, I’m having quite the love affair with them at the moment ever since I tried their ApiNourish Night Cream and their Age-Defying Serum. I was so impressed with both of them that I ended up on a mad spending spree trying to acquire as many products from their ApiNourish range as I could possibly get my hands on. There was a half price sale on at the time so I’m using that as my excuse to justify my splurge (a girl can’t resist a bargain after all) and their eye cream was just one of…

InstaNatural Retinol Serum Review – Why It’s Not For Me
Before I even begin, this InstaNatural Retinol Serum review is the first negative review that I’ve had to write so I wanted to point a few things out before I get started. Firstly I’m not necessarily saying that this is a bad product (it’s highly rated reviews across the net would certainly contradict that) it’s just that it’s not a product that worked well for me personally. We all have different skin types and what works great on one person’s skin may wreak havoc on someone else’s so I just wanted to add my own not so great experience to the mix. There were also a few other things that…

5 Best Home Pedicure Tools 2018
The best home pedicure tools can be a great way to achieve salon smooth feet all within the comfort of your own home and usually for a fraction of the price of a salon treatment (well, depending on how high end you want to go with your at home product). But even if you do feel like splurging on a more expensive product, once you have it, the savings will soon out way the recurring cost of constant salon treatments after just a handful of uses. What’s even better is that you can do it at any time that suits you and you don’t have to go through the embarrassing…

Manuka Doctor Apinourish Age-Defying Serum Review
The Manuka Doctor Apinourish Age-Defying Serum is a product from the increasingly popular Manuka Doctor company and this particular product is part of their Apinourish range. Just in case you’re new to the brand, Manuka Doctor is the skincare company that combines both manuka honey and bee venom into their skincare products and it’s making them more and more popular in the process. It’s no secret that I’m having quite the love affair with Manuka Doctor products at the moment to the point where I’ve just bought another four new products to test out and review. This particular serum though is not new to me. I actually tried this serum…

5 Of The Best Face Toners 2018
The best face toners are not always the easiest of skincare products to find not just because there’s so many of them out there but also because they can differ so much from one product to the next. But there are a few in particular that have quite the following making them a good option if you looking for a new toner or looking to try a toner for the first time. Many choose to skip the toner but toners have numerous benefits that many people don’t realise making them truly worth considering as an added addition to your skincare arsenal. But before you run out to buy just any…

The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 Review
I’ve been coming across The Ordinary brand quite a lot recently so I decided that I wanted to try and review a few of their products starting with this one, The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 review. This particular product was the first one to spark my interest because so many people were raving about it, not just because it was said to be really effective but also because it was so effective at a ridiculously cheap price much like most products in The Ordinary range. By cheap price, I’m talking less than the average Amazon cheapy serum but what enticed me even more was the fact that it was…
