Review: L'Oreal Paris ~ Skin Perfection 3 in 1 Purifying Micellar Solution

Review time :)

First of all I will start with what the L'Oreal website states about this product. 

"L’OrĂ©al Paris Skin Perfection Purifying Micellar Water, high performance cleansing for sensitive skin. Used by make-up artists, the ‘micellar’ solution swiftly removes all traces of make-up and acts like a purifying magnet on skin’s surface to capture and draw out excess oil and impurities. So gentle, skin feels soothed and toned. Hypo-allergenic. No Alcohol. Dermatologically tested."




What I think: 

Well personally I LOVE this product and I use it every night! I find it takes off all of my make up and leaves my skin feeling soft and smooth! I tend to use it with cotton wool pads and use them until I no longer have any make up residue left on the pad. It is very gentle and has no alcohol in the product, which I really like. I even use it to take off my eye make up. I have sensitive skin and so far have had no bad reaction around my eye area from doing so. BONUS! hehe. I am now on my 3rd bottle this is how much I adore the product. 


WARNING:

The hole in the top of the bottle is rather wide therefore you can sometimes over pour and this results in a waste of the product and also a very wet, soggy cotton wool pad! 


You are able to pick this product up from most UK supermarkets or drugstores. The RRP is £4.99

Have you tried it?

Scary Halloween Makeup

Happy Halloween,

Halloween has passed and I am going to share with you the Halloween make up I used  for the party. I didn't think it would work as well as it did! I was pretty proud of it actually. 

It looks really effective, yet it took me ageeesssss to do! If you wanted to do this I would recommend maybe not covering one of your eyes and doing down your mouth or something, because it proved a little hard to focus especially after a few drinks lol!


To get the desired effect I used a zip, cotton pad, plasters (For over my eye and eyebrow), liquid latex, tissue paper, black and red face paint and fake blood. Warnings!!!!
  • It is like waxing when you peel it off so DO NOT put over any eyebrows or eyelashes because you will be bald afterwards!! haha
  • It is a very strong smell the liquid latex so if your doing near eyes etc be careful. 
  • Allow yourself plenty of time because it take a LONNNGGGG time!
  • Fake blood can stain so put Vaseline on your face before hand :)
  • It hardens so straws are required and facial expressions can be rather difficult haha. 
If you would like to know anything else about it please feel free to ask :)
