LITTLE BEAUTY HAUL

Wednesday, 4 September 2013


On the weekend when I was out with my husband and my two children I had some time to pop into Boots and pick up some of the things that I have been running out over the last weeks like my trusted La Roche Posey Toleriane cream cleanser. I love this make up remover as its for sensitive skin and does not make my skin break out as other cleansers with fragrance can do. While I was there I saw that they had a 2 for £14 offer on all loreal products so I quickly got myself one of their mascaras and liquid liner ( full review on the liner is coming soon). Also on offer are the Real Techniques make up brushes (buy one get the second half price). I haven't  tried any of their brushes yet, I know I am probably the last person on this world that hasn't got at least one of them in their collection. But hey I got there in the end ;-)
Lastly I got some more hair scrunchies, I know I know who is wearing scrunchies these days ( Carrie Bradshaw's fault I say) but I love these so much as they do not damage your hair while you wearing it in a pony tail. I say they have to become fashionable just for that reason alone.


Have you bought anything in the last week and would like to share with me?

REVIEW: LOREAL 3IN 1 PURIFYING MICELLAR SOLUTION

Thursday, 29 August 2013

Loreal says: Swiftly dissolving all traces of make up, the 'micellar' solution acts like a purifying magnet on the skin's surface to capture and draw out excess oil and impurities rather than spreading them around your face like some wipes can.

Sounds really good don't you think? As you can see I have use it for some days now and while it is an absolute great eye make up remover that removes all traces of mascara and liner, I wouldn't use it to remove my foundation with. A creamy cleanser like Liz Earls Cleanse And Polish would do a better job..
 Cream cleansers are just so much better to remove heavy make up and liquid foundations especially when you use them with a warm muslin cloth to remove make up and exfoliate the skin.
The Loreal Micellar Solution feels more like water and doesn't give a thorough cleanse as other cleansers would do.
However this makes for a perfect mascara and eye make up remover, I just spritz a little on a cotton pad and press it on to my eye lids, hold it for 10 seconds and then wipe all the eye make up away.
 It doesn't feel greasy nor does it hurt the eyes so in my opinion this is perfect.
Some of the You Tuber Gurus have compared it to Bioderma which I have not tried out yet but I can definitely see a comparison.
As for the claim that it unclogs pores, I can not really say anything other that it dosen't have any ingredience that would support that claim.

Have you tried the Loreal Micellar Solution, Bioderma or other similar make up removers? I would be interessted about your opinion.
