Product review

Hi everybody,

I thought I would do a quick update on a couple of things I have bought recently and loved!

I don't know about you, but I always seem to go into every new month (after pay day) with good intentions and tell myself I'm not buying any more things I don't need, necessities only..... Which unsurprisingly enough, tell a girl she can't have something; she will go on a mission to get it. Especially where make up and myself are concerned!

The first thing I purchased was the latest Blush addition to Benefit's gorgeous line of boxed face colours; Bella Bamba, which they claim gives a 3D look to your skin, I wouldn't quite go as far as to say that but it certainly does give a nice perked up freshness to your face with just the right amount of shimmer, so fortunately you don't look like a glitter ball! I will say that it is really pigmented and with this a little goes a long way!

I also decided to try a couple of other products from Benefit including the Creaseless Cream Shadow/Liner in "Strut" ( really nice, I've found, for a long lasting daytime smoky eyes look), The Gloss in "Life on the A-List" (a gorgeous pink/peach gloss) and PosieTint which is another gorgeous colour which gives a nice fresh look to your face. 

I also decided after a long time using a different brand of face cleanser every few weeks and never really being happy, I would try something new. I have found in recent months that my usually combination oily skin has started to go the opposite way and has started to develop unsightly dry patches. I went to my local Boots and immediately went to the Clinique stand as, for me clinique has the best line of skin care! The SA recommended I try this product, so I got a bottle of Clinique's Rinse-Off Foaming Cleanser, and after only one use all I can say is WOW! My skin was so soft and squeaky clean with not a trace of make up left on it. I am a hopeless addict for face wipes and always looking for a quick and easy (aka lazy) approach to taking my make up off at night, but I think after trying this and having only a pea sized amount produce so much foam and it effortlessly melting my make up off, I will be sticking to this for the foreseeable future. I would also recommend investing in a tub of Clinique's Moisture Surge Extended thirst relief gel-cream as, in conjunction with the cleanser, my skin has never felt so good. Couldn't stop touching my face after using it!

Anyway, I will stop rambling and go to bed now as I have about 4 hours before the alarm goes off... joy!

Thanks for reading,
