    Caudalie Resveratrol [Lift] Face Lifting Soft Cream – Limited Edition Discovery Size.

    [Sample/ Affiliate Links] Caudalie was one of the first French Pharmacy brands I got into when I started blogging. I think it was about 8 years ago now that I’d read so many rave reviews about the Caudalie Beauty Elixir that I was convinced I simply needed it, so I bought it and regretted nothing. That product and the Grape Water (a hot weather essential in my opinion) were the gateway pieces that started an appreciation for Caudalie* as a brand. I’ve actually not tried a Caudalie product I haven’t enjoyed and the Resveratrol [Lift] Face Lifting Soft Cream is continuing that trend. Incredibly nourishing and hydrating yet lightweight in texture,…

    Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask

    The Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask is another goody that was included in the Gothamista collaboration with Wishtrend (read my post on the Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream here)and I’m so glad I had the chance to try it. Beauty products always appeal when they have a bit of a novelty factor and this mask has a cool texture that certainly fills that brief. It looks and feels like some kind of chilled pudding; by that I mean it’s bouncy and light and sort of like a thick baked custard that breaks apart and melts when you smooth it on the skin. It’s an awesome censorial experience that makes…

    Chantecaille Just Skin

    [Affiliate Links] I’ve already shared my review of Chantecaille Just Skin* on my Instagram but figured it’s time I write a whole blog post about it, so here it is! Firstly, a little bit of a background on my makeup habits or lack thereof; I’m not excellent with makeup and I’m pretty open about that, which is honestly probably why I’m so into my skincare. I’ve watched countless smoky eye tutorials and contouring videos but at the end of the day I like makeup products that are easy to apply, require minimal time and the least amount of effort possible. I don’t have a steady hand so I’ve accepted that the…

    Kate Somerville Goat Milk Moisturizing Cleanser

    Ever since Caroline Hirons showed the Kate Somerville Goat Milk Cleanser* in one of her videos, I’ve been itching to try it for myself. There are a couple of reasons why it’s taken me years to get the goat milk cleanser into my bathroom. Firstly, like all Kate Somerville products up until recently it was only available in the US and secondly, it was being reformulated so wasn’t available to anyone! Now though it’s back in a better formula (this one is a cream whereas the original was a balm) and it’s now stocked at Space NK and at Kate Somerville online in the UK so those of us who’ve…
