MONTHLY FAVOURITES {JANUARY AND FEBRUARY 2019}

Did I review some good products during January and February

Yes I did

and it's been a great start to 2019.
I highly recommend that you click on the Pink Links

1.

The EVE LOM Cleansing Balm has been somewhat of a surprise love 
for me as I'm generally not one to favour a balm over a cleansing milk, 
but this one has totally converted me and I'm loving it.
Having been given a sample from SpaceNK in the U.K. I reviewed this product
as a "Sunday Sample" post and I have since bought the full size on my 2nd trip
to the UK in January.

2.

My favourite mascara of all time has been the benefit Roller Lash Mascara

but it now has some serious competition from its own creation

in the form of benefit BAD Gal BANG! Mascara.

It was launched over a year ago, so I was a little late to discover this absolute lash gem.

I hold my hands up as I have fallen "head over heels" in love with the 
French skincare brand Caudalie and especially this 
Caudalie Beauty Elixir.
This product can be used by everyone and whilst its
not a "must-have" item its certainly a "nice to have".

Despite the colour of this product, in the bottle, not looking too promising
I have thoroughly enjoyed using these affordable and effective
L'Oréal GLOW MON AMOUR Highlighting Drops
I have been using them daily to add some extra glow to my skin and make-up

CAUDALIE BEAUTY ELIXIR {REVIEW}

I cannot tell you how long this cult facial product from the French brand Caudalie

 has been on my wish list.

Not being the easiest of brands to obtain here in South Africa, in fact the only official stockist is 

Skins Cosmectics in Sandton Shopping Centre Johannesburg.

At the end of last year, on a trip overseas I went a little overboard to say the least, 

with my purchases from Caudalie.

I purchased my products from various outlets including, Feelunique - an online beauty store, SpaceNK,

 a Caudalie boutique in Belgium and SkinsCosmetics in Amsterdam.

In total, I now have around twelve products to try and review, so expect lots of Caudalie content this year. In fact my March "Currently Under Review" post will comprise totally of Caudalie products, so you could say that March is going to be my Caudalie Month.

This pioneering French brand, from the wine region Bordeaux, harnesses the

 power of grapes, vines, leaves and seeds to create anti-ageing skincare 

that's natural, ethical and ultra-effective.

The Caudalie Beauty Elixir is much loved by beauty editors and beauty bloggers 

around the world  and I have to say that I join them wholeheartedly in 

their praise for this product.

This multi-tasking mist sets make-up, tones and tightens pores, smooths fine lines

 and gives the skin an instant boost of radiance. 

Can be used as a priming mist either under or over your completed make-up, 

enhancing its longevity and reviving tired and dull-looking skin.

Containing  extracts of grape, rosemary, orange blossom, rose, myrrh 

and organic balm mint this revitalising mist gives you an immediate radiance boost. 

Thankfully it was my skins absolute saviour on four long haul flights recently 

and truly makes a great travel companion.

The aromatic fragrance, which smells divine is both uplifting and calming for the mind and the senses.

My daily routine consists of setting my make-up in the morning and then

 just spritzing my skin several times during the hot summer days.

It would be a great "skin wake up" during those long days in the office.

Having gone through one of my two 30ml sizes already and I now wished that I had

purchased the 100ml for my dresser and a 30ml for travel.

Ideal for all skin types and loved by men also, this 100% Natural product turns out to

be one of  those items that you didn't realise you and your skin needed until you try it.

It's now a firm favourite in my beauty regime and as you can tell its a product that I can truthfully 
rave about, so if you have the chance to

get your hands on one... 

BUY IT...

Unfortunately the Skins Cosmetics website was down
so I'm unable to give you accurate prices.
However the online 3rd Retailer MUSE Beauty have the 100ml
listed at R850 which is a ridiculous price.
