Dots For Spots Review

Dots for Spots are a brand that creates special dot patches to help get rid of pimples and spots. They are designed to absorb impurities from the spots the patches are placed on which is a much safer way of getting rid of those nasty spots. They promote faster healing and also act as a protective cover.  I was given a pack of these which 24 dots so these will last me a while as I'm luckily enough to only have a few spots here and there. 

They are ultra thin and almost translucent which is amazing as no one can notice them and I can hardly see them. I'll admit popping spots is a disgusting hobby of mine but I've found these have stopped me doing that which is much safer for my skin and less risk of leaving scars. I find I use these better at night so I don't touch the dot however I have used these underneath makeup and you can't even tell I'm wearing one. It doesn't get rid of the spot overnight however it does decrease in size considerably which is much better. 

Nakin Skincare Review

Nakin is an anti-ageing skincare brand which creates products for people who want great looking skin at any age. Nakin use the finest plant actives to create natural skincare. I regularly use there lip balm as it's hands down the best one I've ever used so I was over the moon when I was asked to review some more of their products. I was kindly sent a matt formula face cream, a revitalising face oil and a purifying face toner. 

The face oil contains esters similar to natural sebum of skin which helps moisturise the skin and leave a protective barrier. This is amazing, it doesn't feel to greasy and doesn't leave oily marks on the skin as I do fear using oils will make my face look sweaty or oily which this one doesn't. It makes my face feel so soft and I no longer get dry patches on and around my nose. 

I am a big fan of face creams as I think they really help protect and hydrate the skin. I do wear makeup regularly and because of its matt formula this face cream is a great primer to wear underneath makeup which I've found helps keep my makeup on longer. The cream is rich in ellagic acid which encourages cell regeneration and tissue repair so your skin looks healthy all the time. It can also be used on all skin types as it has the ability to balance and adjust moisture dependent on the individual skin which means I can use this all year round. 

I haven't used facial toners very much beforehand so I'm very new to these products and how to use them however after reading a few comments I'm eager to use these often. This facial toner is a deep cleanse for the skin to really clear those pores whilst tightening the skin at the same time so I don't have to worry about wrinkles or creases for a long time. It's so good at cleansing the face that I even find traces of makeup from the day even after its been removed. 

I absolutely love this brand and I will forever recommend to friends and family. These products will be a firm favourite in my collection and great news for you guys they currently have an offer on which is for 25% off everything with code 'SKINGLOW' so act quick.

Scence Beauty Review

Sence Beauty is a beauty brand which started in 2010 in the Netherlands. They offer a range of products from skincare to beauty products which are safe for everyone to use. I was kindly sent a range of their products which included makeup wipes, hand and face masks, and micellar water. 

I'm such a big fan of makeup removers and I do favour using micellar water because I feel like it gets more makeup off the skin however I do love using wipes when I need a quick removal. These wipes do the job perfectly and are great for sensitive skin. They are also alcohol and perfume free and also helps protect the natural moisture balance of your skin so these are a favourite. I love the micellar water because it's just so moisturising. I find in the winter my skin does become quite dry so this is great to add a bit more moisture into the skin. 

The hand masks I was given are like rubber gloves you place your hands in which you keep on for around 20 minutes to get silky smooth hands. They contain shea butter, vitamin E and various extracts which include rose flower and anise. My hands have never felt softer using these. I haven't tried the face mask yet as I'm not a regular face mask user so I will try to write another post when I have tried this one out. Overall I think these are great products which are a great addition to my beauty and skincare collection.

Smoovall Review

Smoovall are a company that have created the solution to a very popular problem which affects most people. Chafing happens to most of us regardless of size and can be very irritating. Smoovall is a spray that you can apply to areas which are prone to rubbing. I'm so happy that I have been given 2 cans of this spray to try out. 

I couldn't wait to try these especially with wearing a lot of skirts and dresses. From the first try I couldn't believe this product hasn't been in my life before now. The spray is invisible on the skin and doesn't leave any oily residue which I've found from other products. The smell is very floral and is really pleasant so its like having extra body spray on. Each can contain 100ml which I'm sure will last a while. The unique formula also makes it sweat and water resistant which makes working out much easier. Every application lasts for around 4 hours whether you need to apply more or not depends on the situation but I've found 4 hours is long enough for me. 

A 100ml can costs around £14.99 and can be purchased from their website.

Andrew Barton Haircare Review

Andrew Barton creates and sells a variety of different haircare products to get brilliant results which can be tailored to each individuals different needs.

As my hair can be quite dry and damaged I was kindly given some products from their S.O.S Hair Repair range which specialises in bringing your hair back to purpose. It is enriched with Moroccan Argan Oil and Shea Butter which helps hydrate hair and give it a natural shine. 

My Thoughts :

With very long and thick hair finding a good shampoo and conditioner can be quite a struggle let alone finding one that is affordable. This shampoo and conditioner ticks all the boxes. When first using it, straight away I fell in love with the smell which must be from the Shea Butter in this. It really does make a difference in the smell of my hair. It has also majorly nourished my hair and made it a lot more softer and silkier. I've never used hair oil before but I decided to give this one a go before blow drying my hair and I can tell it makes a difference. Another thing that's great about these products is they range from around £4 each so they won't break the bank. I am so happy I found out about this brand and I will definitely be adding these to my favourite products.

Lily England Makeup Bag Review

Lily England create high quality makeup and beauty products at an affordable price. They kindly sent me a makeup bag and a rose gold brush for me to try out and see what I think. 

Description from Lily England :

The makeup bag features TWO full-zip compartments with the top section featuring a mesh pouch and makeup brush organiser. The large bottom compartment is ideal for your makeup essentials.

My Thoughts :

I absolutely love this bag! I'm not one for makeup bags as most of my makeup is stored in drawers and I rarely take my makeup with me but this will be great for when I go on holiday. The design is very sleek and the fact that the material is washable is amazing so I won't ruin the bag from makeup stains. 

I love the fact that this makeup bag has two compartments so there's a place for anything. The top part is great for holding makeup brushes in place so that the brushes don't get ruined or damaged whilst on the go. The clear compartment is amazing for holding things like lashes and lash glue that I easily lose. 

The bottom part is large enough to hold a lot of makeup which is ideal as I do own a lot of makeup and can't decide which to take with and which to leave at home so I do really love this compartment. Overall this makeup bag is very sleek and stylish whilst being practical at the same time. 

You can find Lily England for yourselves here.
