Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant Review



Ever since I gave birth to my daughter Emmy, my skin has been terrible, very oily, yet dry, and being a new mum, I've only just started to have the time to sort it out. I've been trying to up my skincare game and I have been experimenting with a lot of top rated and highly recommended products to try and find skin-care which can (hopefully) solve my skincare woes. 

I've never tried anything from Dermalogica before but I knew them as a high-end skincare company. Dermalogica’s Daily Microfoliant is one of their highest rated products and was intrigued to find out why. 

Dermalogica’s Daily Microfoliant is a rice-based powder which, when mixed with water, activates to release papain, salicylic acid and rice enzymes, providing both manual and chemical exfoliation 

Unfortunately I have to be honest and say that myself and this particular product do not get along. I feel that for £39, the way in which you apply the product feels strange. I think it's because it reminds me of the way in which you mix certain Lush Cleansers (Powder in a Tub, add water and then cleanse the skin) Lush Cleaners are around £10 and when I compare the two I honestly cannot understand the price point of this particular product. 



The product does make skin feel refressed and squeaky clean thanks to the way it gently exfoliates the skin. If you want skin to feel polished and refreshed, then this product is perfect. Its a good product if you have oily skin and need a gentle cleansing wash, especially since you can use it everyday. 

If you are in need of a gentle, yet effective exfoliater, then this is a good option, if you want a high-end product. However I feel that there are just as effective products available (Garnier Cleaning Scrub and Lush's Angels on Bare Skin) for a much better price. 

My skincare search continues................

MAC Strobe Cream Mini Review

Strobing is something I'd never even heard of until I started watching Rupauls Drag Race a few years ago (in the Sharon Needles Era: AKA the good ol' days!) Strobing has been described as overdone highlighting: However strobing to me is not only highlighting certain facial features but also adding dimension and texture to the area too. Admittedly, its not something I would bother doing every day. But on special occasions I like to highlight my favourite features (usually my cheekbones)  I received the MAC Strobe Cream as a little try-out sample after buying too many lipsticks over on the MAC website. I was pretty chuffed as I've wanted to try out the Strobe Cream for ages now!  MAC describe the Strobe Cream as 'a  moisturiser that boosts the look of dull skin and luminises with iridescent particles' So perfect for my tired skin that needs a bit of a boost!  I love the little packaging, in fact I would say I'm a bit obsessed with miniature ve...

Bourjois Radiance Reveal Concealer Review

I'm obsessed with concealers, and I'm always on the hunt for the perfect one! I currently use the Nars Radiant Concealer ( Review Here ) for under my eyes and the Benefit Boi-ing Concealer for spots etc.  I recently purchased the Bourjois Radiance Reveal Concealer as I'd read good reviews online and I wash hoping it might be a dupe for my trusty Nars Concealer.  Firstly there is one massive downside to this concealer: There are only THREE Shades! That just seems lazy! Especially in this day and age where you can purchase some concealers which have over 30 shades to choose from!  I have the shade 'Light' and for once, it is indeed actually Light! It's gorgeously pale (it may even be too pale for some people, so I would suggest swatching it next to the other shades if unsure)  It is specifically designed for the delicate eye area and it offers 24 hour hydration to the area around the eyes to offer hydration throughout the day, leaving eyes...

Balance Me Rose Otto Face Oil Review

An oil for your face? Yes, Yes, Yes! If you would have told me years ago, when I was a hormonal teenager with many breakouts to use oil on my face I would have laughed at you, but the Balance Me Rose Otto Face Oil, has made such a difference to my skin, I am a complete oil convert.  I have quite red, sensitive, often sore skin and this calms it right down. Its deeply nourishing and hydrating. I've heard it described as a conditioner for the skin.  I usually use it a night when my skin is looking dry and frazzled. As you can see with the roller-ball application, you just roll it onto the skin (I swipe across each cheek and my forehead) and then gently massage into the skin. Its just such a gorgeous and luxurious feeling treat for the skin.  It has never broke me out and it has kept my skin feeling and looking a lot more luminous. It doesn't make my skin shinny and doesn't leave any kind of weird residue on the skin; leaving my skin feeling moisturised and l...
