Pevonia - Bright Skin Green Apple Mask 

Pevonia gives effective & natural skincare for women, men, teens & pre teens for every skin type. Pure holistic botanical & marine elements which deliver great results. They not only provide skincare products but also have a number of spa's around the country. 

This mask contains ingredients that are found in apples. It helps to hydrate, exfoliate, brighten & tighten the skin. It also contains Red clover extract which regulates sebum production & tighten pores, helping to reveal a hydrated, youthful & matte complexion. So it is perfect for people like me who have oily or combination skin.

To use it you simply apply a thin layer of the mask on your face & neck & leave it on for 15 minutes. Remove with cool water & dry your face.

The mask smells amazing I have to say. Not only that but it did help with my pores. Around my nose area I can sometimes have visible pores so this really did help after using this mask a few times.

Cohorted Luxury Beauty Subscription

Hello Everyone!

Previously I have signed up to some beauty boxes to try, amongst them the like's of Birchbox, glossybox etc. But I forever found myself paying for it & the box arriving then I wouldn't use half of the products in them. So I stopped having them simply because I felt as though I was wasting money. 

Then I came across Cohorted. Cohorted is the number one premium beauty box. So for your monthly cost you get sent the higher end products which are full sized products which are worth nearly 3 times than the amount of the subscription itself! 

I was lucky enough to be sent a February box to try & I have to say it is easily one of the best beauty boxes I have tried. Simply because you get a range of products, value for money on high end products. They have also been voted no 1 luxury beauty box & loved by Glamour, Vogue & others.

Your monthly subscriptions contain a selection of products which come in an all black box, finished with a black hand tied bow.

The February box contained:

Percy & Reed - Dry Instant Volumising Spray 

A non sticky, dry instant volumising spray which pumps up your hair in a flash. You simply apply it to dry hair, ensuring to shake the can well before use, lift & spray from the underneath in an upward direction.

Percy & Reed - Volumising Mousse

A little bottle which gives you long lasting volume. This is a creamy mousse which builds volume in your hair to the extreme. Light & airy which builds from root to tip. Just dispense a small amount into your palm & smooth through towel dried hair from root to tip with your fingers or a comb. Dry & style as normal.

Agent Provocateur - Pure Aphrodisiaque

My first thought on this perfume is if it smells as good as their lingerie looks it's got to be a winner! From one of the most iconic fashion brands in the world, founded by the son of Vivienne Westwood. They create the best looking lingerie, nightwear, swimwear & accessories. This is a romantic, floral, fruity & musky scent which smells amazing! 

Elemis - Pro Collagen Rose Cleansing Balm 

One of my favourite skin care brands! Their skin care range always gives great results & they are made from natural products. But I am yet to try this product. This is the no 1 bestselling cleansing balm, it soothes & deeply cleanses the skin. It is packed with Rose & Mimosa waxes which are infused with oils to help protect & nourish the skin. 

Too Faced - La Creme - Colour Drenched Lip Cream - Shade: Taffy

Too faced are one of my favourite make up brands, they are always such great quality, they have the best shades & the packaging are always gorgeous. This lip stick is a super luxe combination of creamy colour & intense hydration. It comes in 25 amazing colours so their is something for everyone. They are formulated with white lotus flower extract that helps hydrate, soothe & condition your lips. 

Lord & Berry - Waterproof Mascara - Shade: Black

Let's face it waterproof mascara always comes in use on holidays & even for everyday use. Lord & Berry have brought out a collection called "Black Wardrobe Collection" which is inspired by the original little black dress by Coco Chanel. The Scuba pro mascara defines & coats the your lashes from root to tip for a big impact, waterproof & volumising effect. 

Lord & Berry - Shodo Stylographic Eyeliner - Shade: Intense Black

This eye liner pen features a Japanese calligraphy inspired pen that draws precise thick & thin lines. It is quick drying, smudge proof & gives a smooth application. The film type base line is resistant to sweat & water & dissolves away with warm wate.

Chanel - Precision Eye Definer 

The box either came with a lip definer or a eye definer. I was lucky enough to get the eye definer. Which for me is good simply because I don't wear lip liner. But it can help to shape your lips & give them a good definition with a creamy textured lip pencil. The eye definer helps to shade the eye contour with intense colour that can easily be adjusted. The supple integrated latex applicator allows you to soften the look if you wish to.

So as you can see you get such a selection of products which are such high end products! The subscription is £35 per month but you really do get your money's worth!

Australian Bodycare

Hello Everyone, 

So recently I have been trying a new skincare range from Australian bodycare. 

Australian Bodycare is a brand leader in tea tree oil products since it started in 1992. It firstly began introduced in salons & the spa market & has since developed into also home use. Their body care products not only help heal but they help to maintain clean & healthy skin & hair. 

These are the first products I have tried from the brand.

The two products I got are two different skin washes.

The first products I got are:

Lemon Myrtle, Mandarin & Thyme - Skin Wash 

This body wash is packed with Tea tree oil & the added zesty scent of Mandarin Peel oil, Orange Peel Oil & Australian Lemon Myrtle. The zesty aroma adds to your daily showering! Plus the added Tea tree oil adds to giving you that all over freshness. It is skin friendly PH, suitable for all skin types.

Lavender Skin Wash 

This Tea tree & Lavender combined skin wash helps to cleanse, refresh & soothe the skin. It has antiseptic properties of Tea tree oil which helps remove odour which can cause bacteria & calm minor skin irritations such as blemishes & breakouts. While Lavender gently cleanses & soothes while leaving a subtle aroma.

Both of the products smell amazing & left my skin feeling so soft & fresh after using them. They also don't leave your skin feeling dry which I like as some can leave a like drying effect.

So I would definitely love to try more of Australian Bodycare's products.

LAB - Life And Beauty Products Review

Hello Everyone, 

I hope you are well & your week is going well?

I swear March is flying by! I'm not sure where the hell the month has gone.

I've been trying a few different products from LAB (Life + Beauty) the last few weeks. LAB is the creation of Oxford University scientists & sisters Charlotte, Lauren & Sophie. They have used scientifically proven technology to improve your skin & healthcare regimes which gives great results.

Pro Lift + was launched to a sell out on QVC UK in March 2016 & they sold out in the following 3 shows & voted for a number of awards. Pro Lift + is a 4 in 1 skincare device which delivers visible results. Which targets all skin & anti ageing concerns. The red LED light visibly reduces wrinkles & increases elasticity by an average of 33% in 6 weeks. The ion head lifts & tones giving results from the first 4 minutes of use & is proven to give a deeper cleanse removing 86% of spot causing bacteria & reduces pores by 40% in 3 weeks.

Lip & Eye Focus 

This device targets wrinkle reduction & fine lines, reduces dark circles & puffiness & also lifts & brightens. If you apply a serum it will give a deeper & more effective result. It combines micro current, galvanic current & gentle massage to enhance the results. The great thing is it is easy to use too & you can do it in your own home! It also comes with Gold Collagen plasma masks which help hydrate, rebalance & reduce appearance of fine lines & wrinkles. They are packed with anti ageing ingredients & work alongside the lip & eye focus to help enhance results. 

Teeth Whitening Pen 

This pen helps to whiten & brighten your teeth. It contains no peroxide or bleach. It contains an exclusive formulation which can be applied to the teeth directly. It helps to reduce stains & discolouration caused by tea, coffee, coke, red wine or smoking. An easy brush applicator helps to cover the entire tooth surface & makes it easy to get to the hard to reach places. 

Microderm Pro - Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion exfoliates & resurfaces the skin. It removes dead & dull skin cells to give your skin a brighter & more youthful complexion. It also comes with a vacuum suction lift which gives an effective but gentle exfoliation while massaging the skin. The great thing also about this is you can charge the device via USB cable so you can simply charge & use.

Gold Collagen Face Masks & Decolletage Masks

These masks are one of my favourites! The masks have been created to hydrate, re-balance & reduce the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles. They contain powerful anti-ageing ingredients that give a firm, smooth & rejuvenate the skin for a radiant complexion. 

Activator Serum 

This is a highly active anti ageing formulation which contains collagen, hyaluronic acid & is made in a light weight, fragrance free serum which can be used daily to reduce the appearance of wrinkles & hydrate the skin.

As you all know I am a sucker for skincare products & I love trying new things. When I find one I like I don't even then always tend to stick with it. I think it's because being a beauty blogger I am always lucky enough to be sent new products to try so I get to test out so many.

Be Glow - Skinsense Sonic Cleansing Brush

Hello Everyone,

I hope you are okay & having a good week so far.

The countdown is definitely on now to christmas! The christmas shopping is going well which is always a good thing.

A perfect christmas gift idea I came across for skincare lovers is from Be Glow.

Be Glow have 2 products the Tia or the Pura which are both skincare gadgets.

I have the Pura skinsense sonic cleansing brush & since I started to use it I would not use anything else to help when I cleanse my face.

Cleansing is a vital part of a skincare routine & this makes it more enjoyable & easy. Not only that but it makes sense it deep cleanses your skin which you cannot do just with your hands. 

The Pura removes impurities and make up residue more effectively. It is a small size which is also perfect for traveling as it also comes in a pouch to carry. It has two pulsation rates so you can awake your skin in the morning & then soothe it at night. A full charge of the Pura lasts 6 months which in itself is impressive!

The silicone brush head is replaceable which makes is hygienic & easy to clean. The head is advised to be replaced one a year. 

I could not believe how simple it was to use & how soft & clean it left my skin feeling after using it even for the first time.

You simply:

*Apply your cleanser to your skin 

*Press the control button to start the skin sense. The pulsation starts when the brush touches your face. So just adjust it to your wish.

*Press control button to enter the standard cleansing mode.

*Rinse & dry your face & ensure the clean the head after use.

I really have been so impressed with this little pocket size gadget. It leaves my skin feeling soft & so clean after use. Which you do not get when you just simply use your heads to cleanse.
