Clinique Chubby Stick Cheek Colour Balm review

I love the Clinique Chubby Sticks. Who doesn't love the Clinique Chubby Sticks? They're so simple to use and they work great. This is why I've been wanting to get my hands on today's product for a while, but as usual, hadn't gotten around to it yet (there's too many things on the list, that's why!). But now I have. Woohoo!

The Clinique Chubby Stick Cheek Colour Balm is a cream blush in the traditional Chubby Stick packaging. Clinique claim that it is an oil-free, creamy, mistake-proof blush that creates a healthy looking glow on the skin. 

It comes in a range of four shades, but the one that I have to show you today is 03 Roly Posy Rosy which is described as a tawny/coral colour.

It comes packaged in the same type of packaging as the rest of the Chubby Stick range; a chubby pen type of packaging that is made of plastic the same colour as the product inside. It has a twisty bottom to push the product up when you need more and it also has a plastic cap to cover it.

Top 6 Facial Washes for Oily, Blemish-Prone Skin


Top 6 Facial Washes for Oily, Blemish-Prone Skin

Oily & blemish-prone skin can be a total nightmare to have to live with. You constantly try out different skincare products such as face washes, toners and moisturiers to find your holy grail product, but you may find that time after time you aren’t getting anywhere. Also, when you have less time to spend on things such as makeup to disguise particular skin conditions, clearing up your skin can turn into a real timesaver. 

Over the years, I have reached my own conclusion regarding skincare for blemish prone skin: what works brilliantly for one may only work out as ‘so-so' for another, and vice versa. I've also learnt that that's okay, but it can take time to discover your personal holy grail product. 

I have tried out more face washes and treatments than I dare to count. Whilst I found some of them to do virtually nothing for my skin, there were a few that showed some results. These are the products that I have compiled into a list just for you, hoping that you may find your perfect face wash to finally help you get clearer skin! 

You might have tried some of them, loved them or despised them, but I do think that they are worth a try if you haven't already given them a go. You may find a new favourite, or maybe even your new miracle wash!

So here we have it: the Top 6 Facial Washes for Oily, Blemish-Prone Skin.

Clinique Smart Custom Repair Serum review

Clinique’s Smart Custom Repair Serum is a product that claims to be able to tailor itself to your skin type. Five years in the making, Clinique say that whether you have uneven skin tone, loss of firmness, wrinkles, fine lines or a combination of all or a couple of these concerns, this serum is supposed to be able to fix it. This cream is supposedly able to “sense” your skin issues and then it then activates the ingredients necessary to work with your skin.



It’s a big claim and one that is pretty difficult to wrap your head around. How can a serum read your skin? I’m going to attempt to answer some questions about this product for you whilst also discussing the most important aspect - is it all it is bigged up to be?

Top 8 beauty tips for hot muggy nights

Do you find yourself looking for a way to keep cool on a muggy, hot night? You’ve gone through your night routine just to feel as if you are sweating it all away and then you feel horrid. The covers are off, the fans are on, the windows are wide open, but you still just don’t feel fresh.





I know that the UK has irritating weather, but nobody can deny that when it gets hot, the nights get very, very muggy. I have found myself searching for numerous ways to keep myself cool at the night time again lately now that the Sun is making the occasional appearance, so I thought that some of you may be feeling the same way! Therefore, I have compiled my list of beauty-related methods (this is a beauty blog, after all!) to help keep you cool and fresh at night in the summertime! I hope that you find it helpful!

Clinique Anti-Blemish Clinical Clearing Gel review

Clinique’s Anti-Blemish Clinical Clearing Gel is a lightweight blemish fighting gel. The product claims to begin fighting spots upon application and that it also prevents future breakouts. As well as fighting spots, this gel also helps to reduce redness on the face.

If you are a regular reader of my blog, you would probably have seen my post last month discussing Clinique’s Anti-Blemish All Over Clearing Lotion. Within that post I also mentioned that I had been testing Clinique’s Anti-Blemish Clearing Gel also and that I was getting some good results.

After using the gel twice daily since that post, I wanted to share with you my thoughts on the gel now and how it has worked over that time period.

Clinique Anti-Blemish All-Over Clearing Lotion.

Clinique's Anti-Blemish All-Over Clearing Lotion is a daily use, clearing, hydrating lotion for blemish-prone skin. It also helps to mattify the skin without drying it out.


Clinique - Anti-Blemish All-Over Clearing Lotion



First of all, I would like to apologise for the delay in this post. It was planned for yesterday but due to Airport issues on my Mac wreaking havoc on my Internet access, it didn't go to plan.

Today’s post is going to be half story and half review. Over Easter, I was thinking about going for an Easter theme, so I started coming up with ideas that would follow it. However, none of the ideas I came up with felt ‘right.’

Then, as I was going through my morning routine, I absentmindedly picked up a sample of Clinique’s Anti-Blemish All-Over Clearing Lotion to use and it came to me; resurrection.

That probably means nothing to you at this point, but allow me to explain.
