Nourish - Argan skin renew



Nourish is a beautiful brand that uses organic natural ingredients to bring you a range of skincare products. I love the brand and all the products i have tried so far. They are good for all skin types, but my dry skin loves them. Perfect for night time moisturising and also beautifully scented with an infusion of rose. Making this a perfect valentines addition. I would highly recommend the Argan skin rescue aswell. 

They say :

Containing extracts from Rose of Jericho, argan oil and frankincense. To improve cellular density for firmer, smoother skin. Suitable for all skin types. Help's repair skin, also reducing water loss and improves hydration. Clinically shown to increase skin hydration. 85% Organic. Full of vitamins, bio-actives to restore and rejuvenate skin hydration. 


So the Argan skin renew which was kindly sent is beautiful and rich cream, perfect for boosting hydration. Especially for the winter and cold weather, when dry patches are rife and hard to control. With the Argan skin renew it takes the properties of the Argan oil and vitamin E to maintain the skins anti ageing properties and appearance. Also Rosé of Jericho is a naturally known source to boost the skins hydration. Therefore with this mix it's helping to naturally help the skins own properties, rather then use artificial additives to achieve this.


 I love Argan oil and I find its wonderful for my skin, I use it in my skin regieme plus any other dry looking area's to maintain hydration. A little goes a long way so you will only need a tiny amount to rub into the skin and leave to absorb. This absorbs very easily as it's a light cream that you can apply as and when you need. 


I always moisturise in the morning and night time, as I find the cold at night does your face no favours. (It's the only part of your body exposed at night) I like to have a good hydrating moisturiser that's light especially in the evening, I don't like cream to sit on my skin. This absorbed quickly and gave me a lovely feeling of hydration. I love that Nourish is natural and organic. 

 Argan skin renew is just heavenly. I love Nourish's ethos and products. I enjoyed this cream, as its light with quick absorbency. Perfect for night time when the last thing you want is a tacky, sticky cream sitting there all night. Smells divine and is a perfect for skin. I would fully revommend the Argan skin renew. Especially for anyone on the dry side in winter, this is a dream.

Eucerin - Eye Makeup remover & 3 in 1 Micellar fluid review




Eucerin is a brand I stumbled upon when I tried a sample of cleansing milk and moisturiser. It's a skincare brand that's very proud of its 100 year history. I am reviewing 2 products from the new "Dermatoclean" range. Many thanks to Eucerin.

My skin story 


So my skin is basically a mixture and as I say can be as pesky as a bug. It can change daily and as I have a long history of being dehydrated a lot. It's safe to say that my would be my acillies heel of things I need to improve upon. Now there is a history of psoriasis in my family, both my mother and fathers side. I can have flare ups in extreme stress and if I'm ill. It tends to be mostly dry in winter, then in summer it will go to a more balanced state. So I will gravitate to more water based skincare with serums. As I find the hydration before helps my moisturiser work better. It's why I like Eucerin's formula for my winter regieme. Plus summer the cleansing skincare is fantastic and hydrating.

Eucerin DermatoClean Range Review's


They say : 
Eucerin DermatoCLEAN Facial cleansing products help skin to breathe. Thorough cleansing is the first step in effective skincare. It is scientifically proven that, when skin is well cleansed and moisturised it is better able to absorb oxygen.


The Eucerin DermatoCLEAN range of cleansing products offers a complete solution for all skin types and cleansing needs. An innovative combination of nature-derived active ingredients works to remove make-up effectively from the skin while helping to maintain its natural moisture balance. Skin cleansed with Eucerin DermatoCLEAN is clean, soft, soothed, refreshed and prepared.

---- Make-up remover ----- 



 Eye Make-Up Remover : thoroughly removes eye make-up and impurities, while keeping skin's own natural moisture level in balance. The eye area is clean, smooth, calm and fresh.
Clinical & ophtalmological tests prove very good skin & eye compatibility. Suitable for contact lenses wearers.  

I found this makeup remover was calming in the summer and was so gentle. My eyes did not get irritated with the rubbing and removal of my eyeliner. It's a gel liner usually and then a pencil in my waterline. So it is an remover I would say will be good for sensitive skin. Not being drying at all and has a hydrating feeling, when you have put a full and heavy face of makeup on. I really like this makeup remover. Plus it really does last as you don't need much to remove stubborn makeup.

--- 3 in1 Micellar Cleansing Fluid --


 3 in1 Micellar Cleansing Fluid : is a convenient facial cleanser, eye make-up remover and toner, suitable for sensitive skin. It contains a very effective yet extra mild cleansing complex and nature-derived actives.
Your skin is perceptibly clean, cleared and refreshed
• Your skin can breathe and is optimally prepared for moisturisation.

This has got to be my holy grail of morning and evening skincare routine. It is my first step I do as soon as I wake up, as it's refreshing. Also I need to wipe my face and neck area, as I just feel uncomfortable and my skin is dirty from the night. Especially in these humid nights where we all sweat and you just get sticky. I would usually use a cleansing solution but found that I didn't get rid of that sticky feeling fully. 

So the first time I used this 3 in 1 micellar fluid, I could not believe how much dirt this removes. I only need a bit on a flannel, then use this in gentle straight rubs to lift the dirt. Plus the evening is surprising how much your skin accumulates, then you do your routine and it's just quite disgusting. I couldn't believe how much my previous cleanser was missing, no wonder my skin was feeling unclean in the morning. I will highly recommend and repurchase this cleanser. It's fantastic and I don't think any product will top this, as my skin is feeling really healthy in this routine. So I better get stocking up. 


Eucerin's new 3 in 1 cleansing fluid is just amazing and this is for all skin types. I feel oily skins will really like this, to get rid of oily buildup's and to freshen up. I can't praise this product more other then say it's here and staying. Even the makeup remover is cooling and doesn't irritate my skin. I wouldn't go as far as to say its something new and exciting on the market. However if you struggle with finding skincare for your skin, then I would recommend Eucerin. 


Where have i been ?

Many of us use makeup as we have a passion or or it is nessesity of our daily life. For me it is a mixture of things. It is one of those ...
