Look of the Day 13th August 2014

Hi Friends! It's been a long while since I've done one of these posts but I'm feeling extra good about myself today so I thought why not share it with you all!

I haven't been out much on my own lately with it being the summer holidays so when I was kindly offered the chance by local Mary Kay beauty consultant Abe to try out some skin care & beauty products I organised the time to get my natter on.

The look is extremely basic but it's the skin care behind it that makes the primer, foundation etc work at the highest levels. I'm going to be real honest with you, the days I'm not wearing make up and exhausted I often go over my face quickly with a cleanser and a cotton pad then fall asleep (dun dun dun!) but recently I've taken to dealing with my made up face before getting tired and it's really made a difference to my complexion.

A new post will be up tomorrow about the products I tried & tested.

Thanks to the Mary Kay ladies- Abe & her team for lending their time.

Thanks for popping by folks

Botanics Organic Rosewater Spritz

Hey Everyone, I've been trying out a few toners lately and the one that my skin is loving is from the Botanics range at Boots. If your combination/oily skin has got you down in the dumps you may want to give this a try.

I discovered Botanics Rosewater Toning Spritz after I had tried different product from Boots Rosewater but with Glycerine which I think made my skin a lot more oiler than it was in the first place but that's another blog post.

Botanics Rosewater Toning Spritz is 100% organic so it's all natural and I didn't have to worry about unpronounceable names in the ingredients too much. It claims to refresh your skin  and visibly tighten pores, (thumbs up) enliven senses, remove last traces of make up leaving skin feeling smoother and fresher, ready for moisturising.

What I love about this product the most is that all I have to do is spray a light mist onto my face after cleansing etc and wipe round in circles with a cotton pad to lift the last of any make up or impurities from my skin. No longer do I have to transfer toner from bottle to cotton pad and then to face. It takes removes an unnecessary step from my routine and for me that means a lot when it's time for bed.
I repeat this step until skin feels relaxed and clear.

Since using this toning spray my skin has been less oily and my pores are tighter, less noticeable. Primer application around my nose is easier and I don't have to blot as much. I obviously still get oily from time to time, that's comes along with being a woman but this has really helped out.


If you've tried any amazing toners please comment so I can check them out.

With love,

Dawn
