Too Faced Hangover X Primer





When long days of work and late nights of play give you a beauty hangover, this is your instant cure. Hangover is a revolutionary makeup primer infused with coconut water, probiotic-based ingredients, and skin revivers that work together to boost skins radiance, promote elasticity, and help hydrate while locking down makeup for fresher, longer, and more flawless wear. We harnessed the science of hydration to create a creamy, penetrating primer that acts like an energy drink for the skin by replenishing moisture levels. It can be worn alone for a dewy, healthy looking finish or under bronzers, foundations, and powders to create the perfect canvas.
  • The unique combination of coconut water, probiotic-based ingredient and skin revivers work together to: Hydrate and brighten skin, Promote skin s elasticity and tone, Soothe and smooth the skin.
  • Get all the priming benefits you love while looking like you received eight hours of sleep and drank your daily dose of H2O
  • After Using Hangover: 100%* said makeup went on smoother, 100%* said makeup looked more radiant, 100%* said skin looked more hydrated and 100%* said their skin had the appearance of a full night's rest.

Too Faced Hangover Replenishing Face Primer is a silicone-free facial and makeup primer infused with coconut water, probiotics and skin revivers that work together to boost skin’s radiance, promote elasticity and help hydrate while extending the wear of makeup. This comes in a squeezy tube with an attached pump for easy application. It’s formulated to brighten, tone, hydrate, and firm skin thus giving it the look of eight hours of sleep or as if you had plenty of water to hydrate your skin. I have combination skin and am loving using it under my foundations, it gives me a lovely finish and helps keep my foundation looking good all day, I do use smashbox pore minimiser on my nose as I have quite large pores and need extra help (review coming soon). This does have a subtle coconut water scent that’s quite pleasant but not too noticeable after application. The formula is a thinner, creamy texture that applies with a bit of stickiness at first but sets to a dewy finish. I am really impressed.
Available for £27.00 from all good beauty stores.

bareMinerals Renew & Hydrate Eye Cream.


Powered by our proprietary ActiveSoilTM Complex, this formula revitalises skin and boosts moisture leaving the delicate eye area looking smooth, refreshed and luminous. Unique electrolyte delivery system optimizes your skin's ability to absorb and retain moisture, resulting in smoother, healthier-looking skin We formulated our skincare to perform expertly with our foundation to give you a younger-looking complexion over time. As I have got older I have noticed my under eye area has become increasingly dehydrated, and as one who laughs quite a lot, I have developed more than just fine lines, My fine lines seem to have all but diminished, In general my whole eye area looks more hydrated. 

Our proprietary ActiveSoil Complex represents a new generation of active minerals with extraordinary skin-renewing benefits, including faster cell turnover and helping to protect against environmental stressorsProven to reveal brighter, smoother, younger-looking skin and reduced fine lines and wrinkles. I Love how quickly the cream is absorbed, leaving my skin feeling soft and fresh, I haven't been using bareMinerals Renew & Hydrate Eye Cream* that long but I can already see a difference in the skin around my eyes. I'm sure that this is helping and I'm positive that with longer use I will see a marked improvement.


As the cream is thick I tend to use this at night, but I have used during the day when I was looking a little extra tired due to a late night & my foundation went over it perfectly and stayed put, so it could definitely be use for both day & night, but at the moment I am using another day eye cream up. This sells for £23.00 which is about average for a good eye cream, it should also last a while as you only need a tiny amount. bareMinerals have free delivery at the moment, use code XMAS1 at the checkout.

Nourish Argan Skin Rescue Treatment




I don't know about you, but I absolutely love Hair oils especially Argan oil to use on my hair to keep it in condition & from going frizzy. So when i discovered Argan oil for the face, I was slightly concerned as I thought it would be too heavy for my face as I have Combination skin & it would break me out.
I decided to give it a try & I am so glad I did, it's an oil but once applied it absorbs quickly into the skin & you are left with lovely plump, smooth hydrated skin.
I also feel that over the last 4 weeks of using this oil,  it has balanced my skin as it seems less oily & i no longer have dry patches.


Nourish Skin Rescue Treatment* contains a Natural collagen enhancer to help protect from signs of ageing and restore skin when in distress. Its active ingredients combat the formation of wrinkles by strengthening the protein bonding structures. It neutralises harmful free radicals and reduces the blotchiness and scarring associated with injury, acne, eczema and psoriasis. It inhibits dehydration and simultaneously brings the skin back to equilibrium. Easily absorbed 90% Organic.

This has made my skin brighter & hydrated, I usually use it 1-2 times a week before I go to bed, more often if my skin is feeling a bit sorry for itself.
It smells lovely and relaxing, just what you need before bed. When I wake up I have amazingly plumped, Hydrated, smooth skin, a perfect base for my base for my Make up.

It retails for £18.95 for 15ml but as it is an oil a little goes a long way, I use one pump and then rub my hands together & press the oil into my face.
