The Body Shop - Camomile Silky Cleansing Oil Review

The Body Shop - Camomile Silky Cleansing Oil Review I've used most of this product so think a review is in order. I came across this in a Youtubers favourites video so I thought I'd give it a try.  It is a gentle soft Cleansing Oil. I haven't used a cleaning oil before so not sure what I was expecting.  I normally wet my hands and face before I use a cleansing product so I kept forgetting that I need to keep my hands and Face dry in order to use this product! So to use it effectively I had to remember how to use it! Secondly, I used it to wipe off makeup, and found that it removed mineral makeup well, but anything heavier like a liquid foundation, and mascara and concealer, it just looked abit of a mess on the face. Just felt like I was smearing product all over my face...I suppose thats what an oil will do though. Once I used the cleansing oil and then applied water to wash it off, I felt it didnt give a good clean to my face so I still had to go and use anoth

Soap and Glory - Face Soap and Clarity 3 in 1 Daily Detox Vitamin C Facial Wash Review

Soap and Glory Vitamin C Facial Wash Oooh gotta love their long product names, they literally have the whole description in the product name itself! I got this product when it was on offer and it was around 5 pounds in Boots. I needed a face wash and this one looked like a good deal at 350ml. You don't even get that much shampoo at a good price!  Anyway it does the job. Washes away makeup and any residue on face, does a full clean of the face making it sqeaky clean without drying it out. The packaging is cute - a blue formula with pink balls. I'm not sure if the small exfoliating pink balls are of any use though as I think the blue liquid product itself it what really gives the face a good clean. My face does look fresh whilst using this product, I haven't had any reactions to this product, it is gentle enough to use everyday. As for the Vitamin C in it, I don't know how much of this it has to make an effect because I don't think its a product that bene

Akamuti Rose Products Review

Akamuti Rose Beauty Mask I like this mask and it's ideal for those with sensitive skin as it seems really gentle - made out of roses, as gentle as it gets! It smells lovely and once made into a paste its a lovely fun pink colour. My skin feels refreshed, hydrated and smooth with this mask. It doesn't strip your skin of oils, or make your skin feel dry. There's so much of the powder in the tub it would last me ages! I've never come across a rose face mask before so this was quite interesting to use.  Organic Rosewater I use this to set my makeup with. Wanted something natural without the chemicals. It's perfect for setting my face when I use loose powder minerals as it pulls the whole look together and leaves my skin looking more natural and less dry and powdery. Only thing is if your looking for something to take your makeup off with, this didnt' really work for me in that way, I was still left with some makeup residue, so it's not the best

Nvey Eco Moisture Rich Fluid Foundation Review

Nvey Eco Moisture Rich Fluid Foundation Review - shade Cool Natural As you may or may not know I'm always on the quest for looking for natural/organic makeup. I came across this whilst searching on google and following their instagram page. I thought the price was reasonable for me to try. On Amazon I got the foundation for 20 quid. One thing I wasn't too sure about was the shade. Their website isn't very helpful, as you cannot see the exact shade colour. It just asks you to to complete the foundation selecter and will roughly tell you what you are; because of this I had to roughly guess my shade. I did try google the shades and a few bloggers swatched 'Cool Natural' which is described as a light to medium yellow toned shade. On some of the bloggers photos this looked quite like a medium yellow toned shade so I thought this would be the most suitable match, instead of the medium to tan 'Warm Honey' shade.  Once it did arrive in the post though,
