Hi There

Filorga Time-Filler Eyes

Filorga Time-Filler Eyes

You’ve probably heard me rant and RAVE about Filorga’s amazing Time-Filler Ageing Cream? And just when I thought things couldn’t get any better, they bring out this little gem! Filorga Time-Filler Eyes! The ultimate anti-ageing and absolute correction eye cream! Praise the skin lords! To be honest, I am pretty lazy when it comes to using eye cream. Don’t ask why since I have no idea myself! But after testing this new product, I am back to being a full on eye-cream junkie, and I don’t think I ever want to go back! Like Filorga’s Time-Filler for your face, Time-Filler Eyes blew me away within the first couple of days. I mean, I don’t have any serious ageing issues with my eyes, and while mother nature is a hard contender to beat, I do believe that prevention is better than cure! What I noticed is that my eye lids, which are normally creased, filled up nicely and the dark circles (from hours blogging way into the night) were reduced. The biggest wow factor for me, was when I applied my eye makeup the next morning. My eye shadow went on far smoother and stayed on for much longer, without the need for eyeshadow primer. And that’s…

Some New Skin Treats We’ve Tried & Tested

Some New Skin Treats We’ve Tried & Tested

Some exciting new skincare products to keep an eye on as we head into winter… Payot Élixir Douceur Payot recently launched their new serum, Élixir Douceur. The idea behind it is to help soothe, repair and restructure your skin. Working as a “protective shield”, it soothes irritation, repairs the skin and protects it from external aggressions. So, three benefits in one! I like to think of it as addressing past damage, working on present skin conditions and ensuring the future health of your skin by offering a barrier of protection. The texture is light and instantly absorbed by the skin, so there is no feeling of oil buildup on your face. I love the applicator; which has a dropper in the lid, allowing you to “press” out each drop as you need it. I like to use it by applying four drops; one on the forehead, chin and cheeks and then working it all into the skin. It’s great for all skin types and perfect for adding hydration back into the skin as we head into winter. For the ingredients junkies, here’s a list of ingredients and how each one works: Water Lily Extract : Soothes, calms down and restructures. Sesame Oil : Restores the cutaneous barrier. Borage Oil : Protects and regenerates. Sun Floweroil : Nourishes and soothes. Rice Bran Oil :…

Check out the latest scoop of gorgeous products that landed on my desk this week…. First up, LCN‘s new colour “D4” is too pretty! I’ve currently got Shellac on my nails so I couldn’t swatch it for you guys, but its a dirty pink shade with very subtle sparkles! Too pretty! Next up, this Neydharting Ageless Eye Cream from Austrian skincare brand MOOR. This is my first touch of the MOOR brand, and although I’ve only been using it for two days now, I love it!

Elizabeth Arden Prevage SPF 15 Ultra Anti-Aging Eye Moisturizer

If you’re looking for a super cool eye cream (and I do mean super cool), look no further than Elizabeth Arden‘s brand new PREVAGE Ultra Protection Anti-Aging Eye Moisturizer. It’s advanced Idebenone technology nourishes the delicate skin around the eye and you can feel it instantly. What I love about it is the little applicator it comes with. Its made of metal, with soft cushioning in the middle, so it wont damage your delicate eye area, but because it’s metal, it helps add a cooling effect which is great for taming down puffiness.
