What Skin Needs Hydrating Facial Serum

2017-06-05T16:26:00.000+01:00

I have been using this serum for good quite few weeks now, I am no longer 20 so I do have first signs for ageing around my lip area. I never had deep lines but even small lines are getting on my nerves. Due to cold & flu I was unable to smell anything for weeks, my review was delayed for that reason. It smells really really nice, It has got Bergamot, Lemon & Citrus oil & extracts which gives us the beautiful smell

If you wonder why your skin will feel relaxed it has got Passiflora extracts, this is used to treat depression and sleep problems I really enjoyed using the product, it definitely hydrated my skin much better than my regular heavy duty moisturizers.

I did not only use it as a moisturizer, I used with my Kryolan Supracolor foundations, MAC's Full Coverage foundation. I used day & night but using at night is better, as your body heals itself during sleep. I do much prefer serums in oil forms, as they work much better, and does not really leave sticky feeling on my skin I use 3-4 drops a day, 5 drops is too much, 4 drops will be enough for your face and neck area. Actually when I was having a cold / flu and in bed for almost 3 weeks, my skin was really bad, really dried out and this serum helped me a bit. Actually I am thinking of using a few drops of this serum when making my own cushion foundation :D Other than buying the oils in supermarkets buy this one. I have purchased one of the oils from the drugstore but it didn't really help me. It has a non oily formula so for those who have got oily skin can also use. It absorbs by skin pretty much quickly and does not leave any oily substance on your skin. I do massage it gently on my skin but I use my index & middle finger and pat it into my skin, or you can just try gently slapping to your skin, it will work wonders. What can i recommend to the younger generation who have oily skin is Don't do the same mistake I did when I was younger, loaded my skin with oily skin products for over 10 years, and it turned into combination skin type now at my late 30's it is pretty much normal to dry.. At least make sure one of your product is for normal skin type. The time most of the toners contained alcohol in it, you can imagine how using a facial toner contains alcohol can dry out your skin over the years. So listen to your noona and don't ruin your skin, if you have acne problems before trying out cosmetic products - drugstore- high street skincare, go and take an appointment from a dermatologist. I had only few acne on my skin but I looked after my skin with using organic handmade olive oil soaps This is an Australian Brand

By Terry Light Expert Click Brush Golden Brown Reviews & Swatches

2016-11-15T13:52:00.000+00:00

By Terry is most possibly one of the best high end makeup brands. I have used several By Terry products not all are covered here on the blog. For me my foundation & concealer is much more important comparing to the other makeup products I use. I like my foundation to give me a nice full coverage, I was unsure about this foundation as now light coverage is very trendy and if you do not have a flawless skin or if you are not on your 20's anymore you expect more from your foundation. I was expecting a light to buildable foundation, but I was so wrong, calling this foundation medium coverage is possibly will be unfair. It is well beyond my expectations, it gives me the high coverage I want, it is light on the skin. When I touch my skin, I don't feel anything at all, it's like a 2nd skin. It's hydrating, the texture is more like a gelish creamy. It's easy to carry around, you don't need to carry a foundation brush, you can use the same brush as a blusher brush, ( just wipe the brush with a wet wipe after you apply your brush) It's a space saver, if you are travelling. You can carry this product everywhere in your bag. I personally liked this product and giving a 5 star :) If a very picky blogger like myself is giving 5 stars to a foundation means it's really worths every penny you will be spending on this product.

2 clicks will be enough to give you a nice a coverage, I used 3 clicks for this swatches and it was too much for my arm.

I use this specific shade as a blush / bronzer as it has got golden tones and I use another blush that golden - browny undertones.

Bh Cosmetics Sculpt & Blend2 10 Piece Brush Set

2015-11-25T18:21:00.000+00:00

Comparing to Wild Brush Set it is much much better more close to Pro Brushes.
But I honestly washing them is a big struggle especially the angled ones, I finished half a bottle of Dasso still not 100% clean.

123 Flat Top Brush

Bh Cosmetics Sculpt & Blend2 10 Piece Brush Set 123 Flat Top Brush

It's good for foundation (liquid or cream) powder applications, for pressed and powder brushes.
It works better with liquid foundations and all sorts of powder.
This is quite similar to Sigma Beauty F80 Flat Kabuki Brush

124 Face Blending Brush

A brush for blending powder, mineral products & setting powders More like MAC's 168 Brush

125 Tapered Contour Brush

Dupe for Sigma F25 It is good for highlighting and bronzing.

126 Precision Flat Brush Brush

It is an ideal brush of cream / powder / gel / mousse blushes.

127 Angled Face Shader Brush

Dupe for MAC 196 Slanted Top Foundation Brush & Sigma F57 - EMPHASIZE CONTOUR Bush

Found this very hard to wash and clean, it is an ideal brush for cream contouring

Small Deluxe Blending Brush 128

it is an ideal brush to blend concealers or to blend foundation for hard to blend areas forehead , chin & neck etc
It is too small to is it for using as a blush brush

129 Small Round Blending Brush

Dupe for Sigma P82 Precision Round Brush

130 Large Shader Brush

this definitely a brush to apply creamy eye products, primers, etc,
A dupe for MAC 152 Large Shader Brush Sigma E60 Large Shader Brush

131 Nose Contour Brush

It is not a brush that I will use in my daily life, maybe once in a blue moon.

132 Precision Detailer Brush

I prefer this using light eyeshadows / or highlighter for my water line, or as an eyeliner brush
It is not the same but Sigma E05 Eyeliner Brush a possible dupe
