SunLux High Antioxidant Skincare Review

Box of Skinlux products

Hi Lovelies,

It is summertime here in the south of France and it is getting hotter by the day. Luckily for me, I got some lovely sunscreen moisturizer and sun damage repair goodies to review. Just in time! Thanks to the lovely Robin, founder of SunLux for providing me with these wonderful products. So without further ado, here is my SunLux high antioxidant skincare review.

I received my box of goodies over a month ago and have been using them daily in order to give an honest review. I got a full size Lux Sunscreen daily moisturizer with broad spectrum SPF 25, a full size Red Tea Antioxidant Serum (comes in a lovely gift box), a full size lip balm (vitamin c antioxidant) and sample-size cute jars of the Tahitian Vacation Lux Body Butter, Dead Sea Soak, Garden Flowers whipped body mousse and little oil droppers of the Geisha Glow and UV Repair. read more

Apart from the many health benefits derived from taking turmeric/curcumin, you could stave off the dreaded colds and viruses that come with the colder weather.

Acure Brilliantly Brightening Facial Scrub Review

Acure Brilliantly Brightening facial scrub in plastic tube bottle

Hi Beauties,

I have been hearing great things about the Acure range for some time now. I happened to come across the Acure Brilliantly Brightening facial scrub recently and seen a few top reviews. I decided to check it out for myself and I have to say I am so impressed! I normally read the reviews on a certain product before buying just to see what other people are saying and if it will be good for my skin type and so on. I was amazed to see such a high volume of top ratings online, mainly 5 stars and lots of people singing their praises. The Brilliantly Brightening facial scrub was one particular product that appealed to me, so I went ahead and bought it. The range is reasonably priced so that is a huge plus point for starters. It is suitable for all skin types. read more

Niacinimide, Biotin, Spirulina and Omega 3 Supplements

Niacinimide, Biotin, Omega 3 and Spirulina on a plate

I have been taking Niacinamide, Biotin, Spirulina and Omega 3 supplements for the last month and I have noticed great improvement in my skin, hair and nails. My nails are so much stronger and growing so quick now. I had been wanting to try Biotin for quite a while now as I am trying to grow my hair and had read that it is the best supplement to take for that. Biotin seemed to be expensive in most of the health shops but I managed to find a really reasonably priced one online to decided to give it a go. Obviously I won’t notice too much difference in my hair length just yet as it has only been a month but my nails are much stronger, I have had to cut them twice this month! That is impressive, they aren’t even breaking and I’m delighted about that as they were quite brittle before. My hair feels softer, shinier and healthier so I think I will stick with these supplements as my hair was very brittle and dry before and nothing seemed to be working in terms of hair oil masks and deep treatments. I guess I may have been deficient in some vitamins and nutrients. read more

Facetheory Natural Retinol and Glycolic Acid Review

RETINOL AND GLYCOLIC ACID CLEANSER BY FACETHEORY

I happened to discover Facetheory products a few weeks ago and oh my God, I just have to say I am the happiest I have been in a very long time (perhaps forever!) with them. Here is my Facetheory natural retinol and glycolic acid review. Phew, very excited about these products and I haven’t done a review in a while now because I only believe in bringing you my best quality and top level faves. Here goes…

I have to say I was pretty sceptical about the retinol (pure vitamin A) as I had used it in my 20’s after being prescribed it by a dermatologist. The product I tried was a prescribed Retin-A. It originally made my skin peel and left me with redness so I discontinued use. I was told that was normal and continue on but I just couldn’t stand it so decided to try other methods. read more
