Blogtober day 1: First Aid Beauty (FAB) review

I have ALWAYS wanted to try first aid beauty products, and I was lucky enough to receive the First Aid Beauty: FAB Faves to go kit. This included a cleaner, moisturiser and toner pads. 

Firstly, the ultra repair cream: this is really moisturising. I sadly suffer from dry skin on my face, always peeling and sore. After a few applications of this cream I could see a huge difference in my skin! I definitely think I will be purchasing the full sized soon!

Next up is the cleanser, I took this away with me when I stayed at a friends last week, this is the second cleanser that I've tried. It is admitted not as great as the Benefit Foamingly Clean, but it does a good job regardless. This is the first ever cleanser my friend had tried though and she commented on how soft her skin felt after using it. 

Lastly, the toning and brightening pads. These are not great, they work well after using the cleanser, but the smell is awful. If you are over 18/21 and have ever tried an alcoholic drink called a jäger bomb, well this is what these pads smell like. It's not so pleasing. I also haven't seen a change in exfoliation, brightness or toning. I know I haven't given then a long time to work, but the smell definitely put me off. 

Until next time lovelies x

Summer skin ready

Who wants summer ready skin? I want summer ready skin! 

 

1. First up is an eczema cream Dermalex, after being given so many steroid creams and thick solutions that didn't work, I finally came across this in Boots! It's quite pricey at around £28 a tube, but is steroid free and seriously the best thing I have ever used on my eczema, so soothing and repairing!

2. Secondary is Benefits Refined Finish from the B.Right. This formula is my favourite skin cc care product that I own, and I seriously cannot wait to purchase the rest of the B.Right skincare range! I've been using this since Christmas and it really does make a difference, creates soft and smooth skin. 

3. Neutrogena pink grapefruit cream wash is so refreshing! Use this every morning and it prevents break outs and scaring from acne, if you're new to skincare this is an easy start to looking after your skin. 

4. Lush King of Skin Butter Bar melts so quickly, smells amazing, and definitely a must have! It's very moisturising and soothing, I use this just after I've shower and even though it does take a long time to sink into the skin, it leaves you smelling amazing and fresh. 

5. Neutrogena grapefruit moisturiser is one of my favourites, again very refreshing, I use this after the facial wash, before I apply my make up. It's not sticky and it doesn't take forever to soak into the skin, but still leaves a fresh feel and moist skin ready to prep for make up. 

6. Last but not least is Soap and Glory Hand Food, again smells amazing, leaves hands feeling soft and prepped ready to paint your nails with your favourite summer nail polish! 

Until next time, lovelies x
