03:26 1 Comments


Hi Guys,

If you have been watching my channel for a while, it will come as no surprise to you that I am obsessed with this Waterproof mascara! Plus, you will probably have already worked out which mascara I am talking about.

It s super affordable, and from the Drugstore. So, even if you're on a budget, you will be able to purchase this.

I love it, mainly, for the fact that it is the only mascara that I have found to be completely waterproof. I have been in the shower, been to a water park, and this mascara does not budge!

Check out the video (above) to find out which Mascara I am speaking about!

Enjoy,
Chloe xoxo

My Skin Secrets: Primer for Oily Skin

14:02 0 Comments
Hey guys,

Another week, and another Skincare Secret from me! This week, i am going to be telling you all about my favourite primer for my oily skin.

As you will know, if you watch my youtube videos, I have the strangest skin in the world! I have so many problems - acne, redness, acne-prone, sensitive, dry-combination skin and a super oily forehead!

I have tried so many different products to try to get my oily skin to act like normal skin, and not make my foundations slip off of my forehead. I've tried drugstore and high-end, but have finally managed to find the perfect primer for my oily skin!

The product is the Rimmel Stay Matte Primer and is available from all drugstores for the affordable price of £5.99!


This primer has a non-sticky and slightly moisturising feel, and can be worn underneath makeup or on its own. 

I have noticed that ever since i have started using this primer, my make-up stays on pretty much all day, and I only need to powder once a day - roughly 8 hours after I have applied the foundation. Before I used this primer, my makeup would stay in place for roughly an hour or two, and then i would need to powder, and then powder again a couple of hours after.

I was a little hesitant at first to use this primer, because i have very acne-prone, sensitive skin, and pretty much everything breaks me out. I found that with this, i had no irritation, and I had no extra blemishes at all. 

I can't believe I have found a primer which is super affordable, and keeps my oils at bay all day!

I definitley recommend this to anyone who suffers from any type of oily skin - whether it super oily, or just a little bit oily. This is literally THE BEST primer for oily skin!

Also, I have a giveaway on my channel where you can win this primer. All you have to do is be subscribed to my channel, and comment on the video telling me which your favourite primer and foundation are, plus your skin type. Giveaway closes 30th April 2015, and is open worldwide. (the video below has all of the information and tells you more of what I think about this primer)

My Holy Grail Face Cream!

12:01 0 Comments
As I've mentioned in a few of my blog posts and my videos, my skin type is very annoying a combination of different things.
     For instance, my skin is dry, sensitive and acne prone. And I know there are a lot of people out there who suffer from dry skin, sensitive skin or acne - I just happen to be all 3! So you can only imagine how hard it is for me to find products for my skin that don't actually irritate any of the problems I have. I finally managed to find my Holy Grail that actually worked wonders on my crazy skin!
    
 One of the biggest and hardest products I've had to find to help out my skin, is face cream. I've experienced rashes, bright red skin, and more and more breakouts that I had before I started using the product.

 I've tried many different face creams for quite a few years, to try to find one to match my skin. Ever since I can remember, I have had very dry patches over my face, that no cream seemed to get rid of them. I had medium sized dry patches on each cheek, and my nose was very dry - up to the point where my nose would be flaky and red on most days, so I needed to find a great moisturiser!
     I had tried Nivea cream for my face, and even though its a very rich moisturising cream, it still didn't manage to shift my dry patches. I would put it on over night, and whilst it was on, I had no dry patches, but as soon as I woke up the next morning, my dry patches were back, and hadn't improved. I also tried Aquaeous cream, which my mum said would work wonders, as it was a deep moisturiser. I put this all over my face, and it became itchy as I slept, and would not rub in! It did moisturise my dry patches a little, but they were still quite bad.

     I even tried several foundations specifically for dry skin, to help moisturise as well as cover. this didn't turn out too good for my acne. None had the coverage I needed, and looked very light coverage (even though one said medium/full coverage), so it didn't cover up my acne or help my dry patches. In fact, these foundations actually flared my acne even more. I don't know whether it's the oil or the moisturisers they put in these foundations, but none agreed with dry, sensitive, acne prone my skin. so I felt like there was nothing that would actually work on my face.
   
 That was until I saw that there was a new line of products which came out last year, called Garnier Moisture Match.
     They have 5 different creams for each different skin type - Normal Skin, Normal/Dry Skin, Dull Skin, Combination/Oily Skin, and Dry/Very Dry Skin. I thought, as they have made different moisturisers for specific skin types, this would be great for me! It also helped that this product was on an 'introductory offer' in basically ever store I went to, so they worked out to be roughly £2.50.
     I knew that I definitely needed the tube that was Dry/Very Skin if I wanted this to work, so picked up the box, and read the back to make sure there would be no irritations. A great thing with this line of products, is that they are all colour coded for a different skin type. The Dry/Very Dry was coloured Pink.
     The box said:
  • Texture Created with nourishing but ultra-light oils, its texture is rich but non-greasy. This moisturiser gives you the comfort you need in a flash, without feeling heavy on your skin.
  • Ingredients Enriched with Camellia oil and Mannose
  • Benefits It works straight away, so your skin’s smiling with comfort in no time. The formula helps leave your skin feeling hydrated for up to 24 hours.
  • NON-GREASY
  • EASILY ABSORBED
  • SUITABLE FOR SENSITIVE SKIN
Looking at those final 3 points on the front of the box, the product was sold to me. A non greasy formula means that there's no harsh oils that would irritate my acne and flare up more acne (like other creams). Easily Absorbed showed me that I would not be waiting around a long time for the cream to absorb into my skin, so would be quick for me to do my make-up. And Suitable for sensitive skin meant that there was a very minute chance that I would develop an irritation from the product.

So the first morning I put on this product, I noticed that the cream was pretty thick, but had an amazing fragrance of Rose. It wasn't over powering, it was ever so slight, but very pleasant. As soon as I applied this, I noticed I would not need a lot, and managed to put the size of 2 peas on my finger, and it rubbed all the way into my neck and all over my face, with some spare to do my hands too! it did not feel too heavy on my skin, and absorbed within 2-3 minutes, which was amazing! I also felt absolutely NO irritation whilst I was rubbing in the cream.
     Throughout the day, I still had absolutely no problems with this product, plus my foundation didn't budge at all!
     That night when I took my makeup off, my dry patches hadn't completely gone, but there was a slight improvement. There was no irritation, and I didn't feel any extra acne popping up over my face.

After a week, I really noticed a difference in my skin. My dry patches on my nose had fully healed up and my cheeks were finally normal, and my dry nose was a lot better than it was before. It didn't feel as dry, and noticed that my nose wasn't flaking like it had been for over a year previously.
     After 2 weeks, the dryness on my nose was completely gone. There were absolutely no dry patches at all on my face and neck, and they felt greatly moisturised. My acne didn't get any worse, and it still hasn't to this day.
     Now,  my skin is so much better and so much nicer than I could have imagined. I have absolutely no dry patches anywhere on my face or neck, my acne hasn't got any worse (I still get the odd spot and a simple moisturiser wont completely get rid of acne). The best thing of all? I no longer have dry skin. This moisturiser has made me have normal skin, and it feels a lot smoother and healthier than I could ever imagine. I'm in love with this product!

Garnier Moisture Match, you are my Holy Grail Face Cream and I love the wonders you have done for my skin!

Hope you enjoyed this post,
Chloe :) xxx
