Cleansers -Boots - No 7 Radiance Boosting Hot Cloth Cleanser
gundieb 4/2/2013 8:11:00 PM
I saw this in my friends bathroom and her skin is always perfect so I looked it up on MUA. So many good reviews so as I got my £5 off voucher I decided to try it straight away. I have been using it for 4 days. Every evening and finish it off by homemade coconut oil, lavender essential oil + castor oil serum. One pump is perfectly enough so product should last for a good while. I have never used hot cloth cleanser so can't compare it with any but it seems to be doing great work. My skin feels softer already, I haven't had any break outs. I think it's calmed my redness too. Only thing that the cloth feels rough and it does not stay hot for long. And if it would be without the voucher it would be a bit over my student budget. Overall I recommend to try this!

Lipstick -Yves Saint Laurent - Rouge Volupte #4 Sweet Honey / Miel Exquis

I have written one review on my blog about this. I was very happy when I got it. Design is just so beautiful, stylish. Even my boyfriend joked - I must have gotten it because it looks so great. I saw a promo picture of it online, I fell for it instantly. And I have big lips and years ago when I was looking for a nude lipstick I could not find one. This seemed to be a perfect for a first timer in nude lips. I love the smell, it also feels very nice, very buttery but not sticky. But here comes the BUT, It really makes my lips chip and split. Once I dont use it it is all great and I use my Burts Bees and it fixes them. But when I use this for a day, it feels horrible. I thought it is other things at first but it goes like a magic once I stop using this. Shame really as it is not a cheep one but I wont be using this again

This is one of my very favourite moisturisers. I like that it has SPF so when I leave out makeup it is enough. Never caused me any brake-out. It is very good for its price. Packaging is very simple, great for traveling too. Feels very light and is not greasy which how moisturiser should be

Moisturizers -Clinique - Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion

I am usually big fan of their products. I do like 3 step skin care range. I don't find it too greasy, it feels very light. I sometimes get red dry patches on my cheeks but this does not cause any reaction. I have the one with the pump. It is very easy to use, maybe not so handy on the go. I think the price is good for the moisturiser. Problem and the reason why i wont buy it again - it does not have SPF So if I dont use my foundation it straight away becomes expensive as I got to buy another day moisturiser. So I am using this as my night moisturiser now. And looking for a new one for day

Treatments -John Frieda - Go Blonder Lightening Spray
gundieb 6/7/2012 6:55:00 PM
My hair is naturally really fine, blond, straight and long so they tend to tangle a lot. And when I say a lot I mean if I don't brush them every few hours they turn into a one massive dreadlock. Yes, my hair is blonde but not as light as I want them to be. That is always the case, its never good as it is. So I decided to try Go Blonder spray. I read lots of bad reviews so I wanted to be very careful so I said to myself i will only use it once a week so hair can "rehab". 1. I washed and conditioned my hair as usual. 2. I put rich cream on my forehead, ears, on my neck before using spray. As I read in some reviews girls got reaction on their skin. I checked my skin on head and neck after first time. It appears healthy. 3. I decided my hair in sections and sprayed 2-3 times each section. Then I combed hair together and massaged spray in hair. I left out the ends. 4. I did blow-dry and straightened after spray (which I normally don't do anymore) Results were noticeable straight away. They were lighter. I wash my hair every other day so for next few times I did deep treatment at home. I use hair oil before washing, then moisturising masque for good 10mins, which I rinse with cold water. Not pleasant I know but its better for hair. Then I spray in conditioner and few drops of hair oil afterwards. I let the hair dry naturally. I noticed some frizz after 4 time so I leave this section out as its in the very front. After deep conditioning you can't see it anymore. I will use bottle till the end but then will stop as its summer and my hair will get lighter by itself. Packaging is very comfy to use and size is good too, I think one is enough, then you need to take a break. Price is ok, when you compare to a hairdressers visit, altho a bit expensive when you are a student, like me. I think it is a good product but you need to be very careful and I would suggest it to try on a small section first, see if your skin does not get allergy and hair is ok. If it seems ok, I still suggest not to use it every time and do deep conditioning. Thanks, Gundie x
