MONTHLY FAVOURITES {SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2022}

Yet another 2 months have flown by and here are my favourite products

 that I have tried and tested over the past couple of months.

All Pink Links to my full reviews will be linked below.

AVÈNE

XERACALM A.D.

LIPID-REPLENISHING BALM 

Having a sensitive and itchy skin was very unusual for me

Luckily after applying the XERACALM twice daily (initially)

 and then once a day,

this non greasy balm both nourished and soothed my skin and more

 importantly over a period of several weeks, the affected areas soon

 settled and the intense itching thankfully ceased.

So this product is certainly a keeper for me and one that I cannot 

recommend highly enough, if like me suffer from mature dry skin

 or any of your family suffer from dry itchy skin.

CLARINS

TOTAL 

EYE CONTOUR GEL

Trying the Clarins Eye Gel again after many years was a real

trip down "Beauty Memory Lane" and happily it didn't disappoint.

It was the first treatment eye product I used

 at the tender age of around 19 or 20 and alas other similar eye products

 came along and after several years of continual use, it unfortunately

 fell by the beauty wayside.

I'm pleased to report back that it's just as refreshing, cooling 

and de-puffing as I remember and it's a product I would highly recommend

for everyone and one that I mustn't forget about again....

CLARINS TOTAL EYE CONTOUR GEL {REVIEW}

Using this eye product again after so many years has been a real

trip down a "Beauty Memory Lane".

Clarins Total Eye Contour Gel 

was the first treatment eye product I ever used at the tender age of

 around 19 or 20.

Its obviously been re-formulated several times since the 1980's version,

which originally came in a little white pot and was fondly referred to

simply as the Clarins Blue Eye Gel.

It was a beautiful cornflower blue colour and offered the eyes instant

soothing and calming. It was also promoted to help reduce puffiness

and dark circles and it was a product that I loved and religiously applied

both morning and night for many, many years.

Other more anti-aging eye products came into my life and over time

 I had forgotten completely about the Clarins Blue Eye Gel,

 that was until recently when I thought I would re-acquaint myself

with this once much loved favourite of mine.

I was happy to see that the products features and benefits had

remained basically the same as this cooling, non-oily eye gel is still 

formulated to minimise the look of puffiness and dark circles.

It's refreshing, hydrating and resting the delicate skin around eyes.

 Containing purifying plant extracts and caffeine,

 it helps to erase signs of tiredness: the eye contour is toned 

and its radiance enhanced. 

Active ingredients include Aloe Vera that's know for its moisturising 

& soothing properties, Chamomile for its relaxing & soothing, but

it doesn't contain cornflower anymore, but I'm happy its still

the iconic blue colour.

This gel is suitable for all eye types, even sensitive eyes.

It can be used both morning & evening, which I would recommend

if you are younger and looking for an early eye care product,

but for the more mature, I recommend slotting it into your morning 

skin care routine, whilst leaving the more active and anti-ageing products

 for evening use.

I'm so glad I've re-discovered the blue eye gel or should

I say the current version, as it's just as refreshing, cooling and de-puffing

as I remember and a product I would highly recommend and one

that I mustn't forget about again....
