Balm Balm - Little Miracle Rosehip Serum Review

Balm Balm - Little Miracle Rosehip Serum Review

 

I actually brought this because my skin was looking rather dull and flaky due to the cold weather. My makeup just wasn't sitting right on my face, with dry patches here and there which was making me over moisturise; I would look too shiny by the end of the day.

I wanted to try using a serum as I've not really used one before. Rosehip being all the hype lately due to it's anti ageing properties I decided to buy something that consists of that. I came across alot of Rosehip products on the market, some being very expensive! I didn't want something dead cheap but something that looked like good quality and was organic or natural in some way. 

I came across this brand on the FeelUnique website and did further research and thought this one looked pretty good, their products looked organic and of good quality not to mention reasonable prices!

How it feels and smells
When I first opened this bottle I thought 'WOAW' that smells strong. It's a very herbally, essential oil, floral smell. I thought I wouldn't be able to stand it, but every time I put it on my face now I just like smelling it too! I would say like most reviewers have, it's more of a an oil-based serum or oil. It does not feel like a normal serum where it's probably more water or cream based.

How I use the Balm Balm Serum
I did try using this under makeup, I use organic makeup so thought this would be the perfect combo. I used a very tiny drop and rubbed it into my face however by the end of the day it felt abit heavy on my face, I could just feel like I had something on my face. If you have very dry skin this could perhaps work but in summer it would feel abit greasy.

I now use it in a different method which I LOVE. I use it right before bed. Once I've washed my face, exfoliated or put mask on, it's the perfect thing to use. I massage it into my face gently in upward motions just giving my face a little bit of a pamper, I use more if I want extra hydration to the skin and if I've felt it's absorbed. After 30 mins or so it feels fully absorbed into my skin and my skin feels very soft and smooth. The best result is when I wake up in the morning my skin looks like I've slept well, smoothed out my skin, it looks hydrated, evens out my complexion. 


Balm Balm - Little Miracle Rosehip Review

My Final Thought
I use this every night now without fail, I wake up and my skin literally looks and feels younger.  It is a really good treatment to sleep in and wake upto better skin. I even tried it one night on my husband, and he said his skin looked less rough and dry in the morning, he just looked a better version of himself than he would in the morning and wants me to put it on him every night too!

I wouldn't use this during the day as it is an oil based serum as you can see by the ingredients. It would work really well as an intensive moisturiser if you have very dry skin, but even using this at night is enough to hydrate my skin.

I would buy this again, it really is a little miracle in a bottle with a miraculous price!

It's Pure Organics Herbal Hair Colour Dark Brown | Review

Natural Hair Dye by It's Pure Organics in Dark Brown Review All I can say is wish I knew about this dye sooner!    My hair history this past year...I've gone through pregnancy hair loss and dryness, not to mention having a no dye period when I was pregnant. This is why I went crazy with the dyes once my LO was born! I ombre'd my hair which meant my ends were bleached twice, coloured and used toners many times to keep ends dark blonde and ashy. Then semi colours on the roots/mid length to keep my hair and a few greys dark and glossy. So all this basically meant my hairs been in a really dry, brittle and frizzy state. It's ruined my natural waves all because of wanted an ombre. Something I'll never do again as its hard maintain when you naturally have dark hair that has a tendency to go orange tinged. I've had regular trims which have helped but after a while hair starts too look rough, lacking lustre and no shine. I think this is partially due to a bad...

Naturtint Permanent Hair Dye in 6N Dark Blonde and 7N Hazelnut Blonde| Review

Image
So over the past year I have tried a few different hair dyes, toners mainly from drugstores like Boots or Superdrugs and I always seem to come back to the Naturtint range. I find the coverage and the shade very much close to whats on the box, my hair NEVER ends up going jet black which it has done from other dye brands. I especially like the 'Natural/Neutral' range in Naturtint, its not too warm or too cool, just a very natural mid brown toned shade and I love it. I usually swap between 5N and 6N depending if i wanted to go abit darker or lighter. Over the summer I decided to mix 6N and 7N to see if I could go abit more lighter so I mixed both shades together. I have asian dark brown practically looking black hair and when I use the shade 5N I get a nice medium to dark brown shade to my hair.  When I want to get a more light medium brown shade thats more prominant and noticable then I usually go for 6N which I'd say is the perfect...

EX1 Invisiwear Liquid Foundation & EX1 Delete Concealer Review and Swatches

Image
EX1 Invisiwear Liquid Foundation This brand is fairly new and was founded by Farah Naz. Like many asians its hard to find foundations that match your skin tone perfectly. Some are too pink toned, high street brand only go upto a certain shade which doesn't cater for asian complexions or you find a shade but the brand is too expensive! Farah Naz has brought out a range specifically for olive skin tones. When she says olive, it means its suitable for Middle Eastern, Asian, South American or Mediterranean skintones. Shade: I came across EX1 Costmetics on twitter, Faryal Makhdoom posted a picture of some of the products and it intrigued me to visit their website. I read somewhere that they now have the brand in Topshop in Oxford Street so I went and purchased the shade F300. I did swatch the F200 in store but I think thats more of an NC 25-30 shade. F300 is perfect for NC35-40 skintone which is me. NC40 or NC42 onwards is probably the F400. F400 is a medium-tan colour.  ...
