Review – No7 Lift and Luminate Dark Spot Corrector
REVIEW | SKINCARE - The Final Conclusion. It has been exactly 1 month since I put the No7 Dark Spot corrector* on trial, so what did I think and more importantly did it work? I have been using the product morning and evening before moisturiser and after cleansing, the product itself was very easy to use. It was a case of squeeze the tube and roll onto the pigmented area.

Review – L’oreal 3 in 1 Micellar Solution
REVIEW | NEW | SKINCARE - A Dupe For Bioderma?. I stumbled across this product recently during a good 'ol food shop, I hadn't seen it on TV, mentioned on Twitter or snapped on instagram so was very intrigued to see what it has to offer.

Now getting into the nitty gritty of the properties and...
Elemis Hand and Body Lotion Review
SKINCARE | REVIEWS - Skin Nourishing Body Lotion. Elemis is a brand I have used and loved for years, whilst pregnant I used the Frangipani oil and I have no stretch marks on my stomach at all! I can't say it was completely down to this as I was absolutely obsessed with my skincare when I was pregnant so it could have been a mixture of regular application and other lotions. A product of...

The Moroccan Rose collection was the...
