SEPTEMBER BEAUTY WRAP-UP.
Ok, so I completely know we’re already in October, but September was just so darn busy that I didn’t get much time to sit down and write for my blog. But, now I’m back (promise!).
I’d always love to know what you want me to cover, so please feel free to email me and I’ll get back to you.
Right-o, back to what we’re all here for; BEAUTY WRAP UP for September. Again, I’ve dived deeper into some of these products I’ve received and picked a few of my favourites to feature below.
Ready, Set, Go..
Silk Pillowcase from slip:
I’ve actually been sleeping with this for about 2 months now, and I don’t know why it took me so long to get one – it’s absolutely changed my hair and life!
My hair has (a lot!) less breakage, it’s less frizzy & static AND my blowdry’s and hairstyles last for so much longer.
If you have fine & thin hair, in particular, this pillow-case will be your godsend. Any other types of hair will benefit from it as well. It’s also great for your skin to sleep on.
Banana Body Yogurt from The Body Shop:
This actually smells like fresh, ripe, exotic bananas, so if you’re a fan of bananas, then this body yogurt is for you!
It’s also super light, and it doesn’t leave that ‘hard to rub in’ consistency which a lot of creme’s and lotions have. I personally don’t like that, so I’ve really enjoyed this as it’s quick to rub all-over your skin after a shower. I’m all about speed these days.
It’s also 100% vegan and not tested on animals like the rest of The Body Shop’s Products.
Vitamin Nectar Vitamin C Glow Powder from FRESH:
OMG!
Talk about a quick-working mask, girls! If you’re a busy bee, always on the run and just want fast-working products that work then this is your new go-to.
It’s a 30-second foaming Vitamin-C Facial that helps add instant luminosity to your face along with a beautiful, bright glow and an in-depth pore-cleansing feel.
Just be careful around your lips – I find it dries out my lips if I apply it too close, because the skin is a lot finer & thinner around that area. Otherwise, you’re good to go!
Read here why you should add Vitamin C to your skincare-routine.
Anti Aging Cleansing Gel from Peter Thomas Roth:
I find it really hard to find quality cleansers – am I the only one? I often find they don’t do much, or help with any benefits other than just removing my makeup. But what I really want is something that removes my makeup, cleanses & add’s an extra something to my skincare. You know?
So, I was pleasantly surprised when I tried the Anti-Aging Cleansing Gel from Peter Thomas Roth at a recent Facial I had which was hosted by Sephora.
This gel helps to clarify and brighten with glycolic acid, salicylic acid, extracts of peach, white oak bark, lemon, lime, linden, grapefruit, and arginine. It also helps to effectively detoxify the pores, dissolve makeup and improve skin texture.
It’s Ideal for all skin types including dry, normal, combination, oily, and acne prone skin. Just don’t use it if you have sensitive skin. It will be too harsh for you.
Hygge Hydraclay Detox Mask from Ole Henriksen:
You might heard me talking about this mask before, but I really love it, because it’s so gentle on the skin but it still produces results. It’s such a treat to use after a long day when you just want to kick back in a hot bath with a face mask.
It has a unique fusion of kaolin and five botanical oils that thoroughly purifies skin, all while replenishing essential moisture. With it’s calming oils and ingredients, it’s gentle enough for dry and sensitive skin. Even as it comforts and helps reduce the look of redness, this hardworking mask draws out dirt, oil, and impurities with a deep cleansing action, leaving your skin refreshed and pampered.
Eye Dew Plus from Arcona:
Okay, drop everything you have and run to your nearest Sephora to get this eye-treatment ASAP!
I use two eye-treatments; The Banan Bright Eye Creme from Ole Henriksen and then this bad-boy. And let me tell you something; it is life-changing for your eye-area!
Dobbed; Unicorn Tears – because of it’s light-reflecting & colour-changing rainbow’ish consistency and texture, it will wipe away wrinkles & lines in a matter of weeks, trust me! We all have them, however young or old. And it’ll keep that area nice, tight and moisturised & just brighten it up like a Christmas-light.
Yes it’s pretty pricey, but it’ll last you for a few months, and the results speak for themselves. I truly could not live without this product now!
Antioxidant Inner Beauty Boost from The Beauty Chef:
I’m a huge believer in that beauty starts from within, so we can buy as many creme’s, lotions and masks as we possibly can, but unless our foundation internally isn’t nourished, you’ll never get the skin you so badly want.
I love anything that I can add to my daily diet that’ll help me reach those *skin-goals* for real. Honestly; I’ll actually try almost anything!
And I’ve recently started adding this little elixir to my water a few times a week, that’s said to help protect skin from cellular ageing, boost the immune system and nourish the gut microbiome.
It’s rich in bio-fermented papaya to help combat free radical damage and boost gut health with natural digestive enzymes and probiotics.
Just keep it in the fridge and have a little bit every day.
Microdermabrasion at Laser Clinics Australia Bondi Junction:
I’m a huge fan of microdermabrasion, because I always feel like it helps my clogged pores and oily skin. If you’re anything like me, who suffers from severe acne, or even just a little, then this treatment will leave you feeling deeply-cleansed and smooth as a baby’s butt.
A Microdermabrasion treatment processes, exfoliates and removes the superficial layer of dry skin cells to improve the skin’s overall texture and quality.
Straight after microdermabrasion.
