Delivery / SalonSkincare

Few months ago I received a voucher for £5 off when spending £40 at SalonSkincare.co.uk so I decided to take advantage of it and get Dr Brandt Pore no more.
I've been wanting to try this for some time because many beauty gurus on the web are raving about it - it seems it's also used on the red carpet!!!



Anyway, I had the chance to try it few times now and unfortunately, I'm not blown away.
It is a very good primer, makes your skin smooth but for the price (£39 BTW!!!) I was really expecting a miracle!
I can compare it to Benefit Porefessional, very very similar - you can also notice that from the swatch above, the consistency and colour are the same; pores are definitely camouflaged a bit but they don't disappear.
I'm thinking this product was GREAT a few years ago, before the Benefit version came out... and there was nothing better on the market. In fact, I think I heard it's going to be discontinued.
Sure, I'll keep using it and finish it off but this item will go in the regret buy pile.

I, also, bought The Natural Nail Company Shine File purely to reach 40quid for the discount but I'm enjoying using it. It's very good to smooth ridges and polish the nails.

Finally, they sent me samples of the Dr Brandt Detoxygen Experience which is a 2-step system: mask plus cream. I used it and really like it, I really felt it working hard but when I looked it up, I found it in the male category... not sure if it's also unisex... *confused*

Hope this was helpful... have you tried this product yourself?

Delivery / SalonSkincare


Last week, SalonSkincare had a sale on so I picked up few items that I wanted to try for a while.

 BECCA Line + Illuminate Pencil in Fiji



It's a double-ended eye pencil; eyeliner is in Olive and highlighter in Khaki.
It came out with Sunset Beach Collection and this is the look you can achieve:


I tried to play with it and so far so good - I'm really pleased with the results but I'd do a proper look soon to show you. It's really good quality: the new pencils just melt together effortlessly.

Alpha-H 5 Piece Anti-aging Discovery Collection



This is the star product that I'm mostly looking forward to try: Alpha-H Liquid Gold with Glycolic Acid.  A Model Recommends always raves about this product and since she always looks amazing, I thought it was worth checking it out.
I got the set for half price and it has full 50ml flacon, so the other items are just a bonus really.

SBC Body Firming Gel



To be honest, I only picked this one to get free delivery. 
I like the pump, the light consistency which is quick to absorb and the size is also perfect for travelling.
I'm not too hot about the geranium smell.
You can try it here
