Zoella Beauty - Review

Image
I just love Zoe. She is so cute. And when I heard she started Zoella Beauty, I just had to get my hands on her products. Unfortunately I have only three products, but I am very happy to have them. Since I don't live in the UK, I have been ordering from a website suggested by Zoe  http://www.feelunique.com  . I find this website really nice and comfortable, I usually get my packages in 1 to 2 weeks. But let's get to the stuff. The first thing I got was Let's Glow fragranced candle. I thought it was bigger, so when I opened the box, it was like what, is this really it?! It's pretty small and pricy for the size. But looks super cute. The fragrance is actually quite strong as I was hoping for more soft and gentle smell.  6,50€ There's written:  Create your own relaxing space and surround yourself with fragrance for a much needed wind down. This cute and calming candle will help free your mind with its gentle blend of white wood accents, sweet vanilla and soft ...

Random Hack Of The Day

When showering with hot/warm water, in the end of the shower, turn water to cold and rinse your hair, face and body. Switching water temperatures is good for your immune system. Cold water is good for hair, because it closes pores, seals in moisture, adds shine, but hot water is better for rinsing dirt. When warm water opens pores, then cold water closes them. Cold water improves circulation, eases stress and has other good benefits. 

Eau Thermale Avéne Hydrance Optimale UV Light SPF 20 - Review

Image
So I bought this new moisturiser Avéne Hydrance Optimale . With my new skincare routine, I had to moisturise and protect my skin, so this moisturiser is perfect.   Avène Hydrance Optimale UV Light is a hydrating moisturiser to protect the skin from daily aggressions and help prevent skin ageing caused by the sun. For normal to combination dehydrated sensitive skin. Based on Meiboserin and Lipomucine® which increases coverage across the skin. It also contains sebo-absorbing capsules (2%) for a light mattifying effect and a matte finish. SPF 20. Paraben free. 29€ I just apply this in the morning after I cleanse my face. Cream absorbs really fast leaving my skin matte. I like how light this is, it's like barely there and also keeps my oily skin under control longer than other products I've used. Skin is nicely hydrated. Also this doesn't block pores and I haven't had any breakouts. Thumbs up!

New Skincare Routine

I finally visited a dermatologist. She quickly examined my face and gave me prescription acne treatments. I apply Duac Gel before bed and Dalacin® T in the morning.  She also told me to use only pharmacy skincare products. So I still use Eau Thermale Avéne Soap-less  Cleanser and a new product - Avéne Hydrance Optimale UV Light day cream. Can't wait to see the results!
