B'KATE Brow Dip review

- This post contains gifted products and affiliate links. -

Hi guys! I've recently had the chance to try out the new B'KATE Brow Dip and I can't wait to tell you all about it.

B'KATE is a Dutch brand created by international Brow Artist Marlies Gregorius. They specialise in high quality, vegan, cruelty-free and gluten-free eyebrow cosmetics. Their Brow Dip is designed to help you to create a natural brow or to build up the colour for a more defined look.

The Brow Dip comes in a range of eight shades including Blonde, Ash Blonde, Soft Brown, Golden Brown, Brunette, Deep Brown, Ash Brown and Smokey Black. I have the shade Ash Brown which is a cooler toned dark brown.

You have likely seen similar products from the likes of Benefit with their extensive eyebrow range and Anastasia Beverly Hills with their own solid brow range.

B'KATE's Brow Dip is long-lasting eyebrow product due to the cream powder formula that sticks to the areas with little to no hair with ease, and if applied with the B'KATE Angled Eyebrow Brush you can create the perfect eyebrow for you.

Nourish London Ceramide Moisture Boost Essence review

Hey guys! It's a new year and for the first post of the year I will be talking about a new product: the Nourish London Ceramide Moisture Boost Essence.

The Nourish Ceramide Moisture Boost Essence is your first skincare layer following cleansing and toning, before serums and moisturisers. It is designed to add an extra boost of moisture and to soften the skin in preparation for the rest of your routine. 

The Boost Essence contains hyaluronic acid, kale sprout extract (a common feature in Nourish Skincare products), probiotic minerals, ceramides, willow bark and trehalose. Together they help to provide nourishment whilst making the skin look radiant and plumped. The addition of willow bark also helps to exfoliate, decongest and balance the skin. It is meant to be particularly good for dehydrated, temperamental hormonal skin.

The Boost Essence comes packaged in a glass bottle that holds 100ml and it has a black flip cap with a small hole in the top to dispense the product. The serum itself is quite watery in consistency which is typical of an essence type product.

Skin + Beyond Supplement Drink review

- This post contains gifted products and affiliate links. -

Hey guys! One of my favourite life tips is as follows: if you perfect the base, the rest will follow. The product that I'll be reviewing today is designed to help with exactly that and it will allow me to delve a little deeper into the meaning behind the advice.

Skin + Beyond
Skin + Beyond

The Skin + Beyond supplement drink is not your regular beauty drink. With the clue being in the name, Skin + Beyond does indeed go beyond helping you to achieve better skin by helping with gut health, bone health, joint health, heart health and sports performance and recovery. It is a 100% natural, all in one drink, providing a blend of patented pomegranate extract, niacinamide and glycine to balance out the gut, increase collagen synthesis and to re-energise the skin cells, overall helping you to achieve smoother and firmer skin. It also includes POMx which acts as a prebiotic and antioxidant. I'll also add the preface here that I am, of course, not a doctor and therefore I shall keep the science side to the professionals and just discuss the product from the perspective of a customer, which I am. For more of the science behind the ingredients in the drink, check out the Skin + Beyond website as it goes pretty in depth and is an interesting read!

So how does this tie in with the advice that I mentioned at the start of the post? Well, the reason that it's my favourite tip is because it can be relevant in a whole range of scenarios. Focusing in more specifically onto the beauty aspect to keep things on topic, it describes perfecting the base because then everything else will just follow along. In this instance, by feeling good on the inside, everything else will follow on the outside. Glowing skin will follow when you look after yourself on the inside. Staying hydrated and drinking supplement drinks such as Skin + Beyond to look after yourself will in turn bring the results that you want on the outside. I actually gave this exact advice in a beauty scenario when contacted by Bondi Sands for a feature that they were working on a few years ago too (and if you'd like to go to a deeper level, I implore you to try attributing it to other aspects of life also!).

Nourish Protect Replenishing Peptide Serum and Antioxidant Multi-Tasking Super Beauty Balm reviews

- This post contains gifted products and affiliate links. -

Hi guys! As we're going into the colder months, a whole array of skincare issues are coming along with that wind, rain and plummeting temperatures. Goodbye summer glow and hello dry skin! Thankfully, today I have a couple of products to share with you all that should help you out with these exact issues - the Nourish Protect Replenishing Peptide Serum and the Nourish Antioxidant Multi-Tasking Super Beauty Balm.

The Nourish Protect Replenishing Peptide Serum is a Vitamin C serum to hydrate and repair the skin whilst helping to retain that long-lost summer glow. I have reviewed one of the Nourish Peptide Serum's before (the Nourish Radiance Rejuvenating Peptide Serum) and all of their Peptide Serum range does have ingredient similarities with their unique extra benefits. This one in particular contains the range's signature tripeptides for collagen production, hyaluronic acid for that shot of super-hydration and antioxidant Vitamin C derived from lemon, mandarin and orange essential oils to help to protect against free radicals. 

The Nourish Antioxidant Multi-Tasking Super Beauty Balm is everything that you could ever need in one. It cleanses the skin, decongests pores, can act as a deeply nourishing face mask and can even be used as an intensive moisturiser. It contains a blend of plant based oils (macadamia, jojoba, coconut, rosehip, kale, sunflower, pumpkin, tea, geranium, borage, ginger, rosemary and sesame) that work together to melt away impurities, refine, nourish, moisturise and also to protect against free radical damage. 

As with all other Nourish products, both the Protect Replenishing Peptide Serum and Antioxidant Multi-Tasking Super Beauty Balm are vegan, cruelty free and made with natural, organic ingredients.

Everlasting Brows Highlighter and Concealer Duo review

- This post contains gifted products and affiliate links. -

Hi guys! If you're a long time follower of the blog, then you will likely know that I love a good multitasking product. That's why today, I am excited to share another one with you: the Everlasting Brows Highlighter and Concealer Duo

The Highlighter and Concealer Duo is a double ended pencil that on one side contains a creamy concealer and the other side contains a golden shimmer highlighter. The concealer comes in two shades (light and medium), but the highlighter is the same on both shades. 

The concealer can be used as a corrector and concealer, useful for imperfections, under the eyes and around the eyebrows to tidy. The highlighter is perfect for use under the eyebrows, cheek bones, the inner eye area and cupids bow above your top lip. 

The pencil itself is a mint green in colour with clear, plastic lids on either end to cover the concealer and highlighter. It's quite a thick, chunky pencil, around the size of similar products from other brands (such as Benefit's High Brow).
