Olay Review: Gentle Foaming Face Wash

Take a look at my opinion of this product before you go out to the shops and buy it!


This is the last Olay review for now. I was lucky enough to receive this product from Olay and I think it is fabulous. Two of the great features are that it is 100% fragrance free and dye free. How good is that! So it has no scent to it at all. The purpose of this face wash is to 'gently remove dirt, oil and make-up.' It is recommended for normal/sensitive skin. Olay's Gentle Foaming Face Wash maintains the moisture in your skin as it is enriched with aloe. The product foams a bit and is really gentle on your skin. The use of it results in clean, smooth and soft skin that has not been irritated at all. I have normal skin that is a bit on the oily side but I think this is great to use as one of my everyday cleansers because it doesn't react with my skin and helps to achieve best results. This product by Olay is really easy to use and apply and is not over drying or overpowering. I really love it! Olay Gentle Foaming Face Wash with aloe retails for $8.99.
It is so affordable for what you get from it. Overall thoughts is that it is ideal for sensitive skin, cheap and effective.

Olay Review: Complete Defence Daily UV Moisturising Lotion

Get an opinion on Olay's Daily UV Moisturising Lotion before you purchase the product!

I have to apologise for not posting for a couple of days. I have been quite busy. Anyway, I am back with a review on a moisturiser. I really wanted to review this as it is great for Spring and Summer. Now, this product is recommended by the Skin Cancer Foundation which is so important for your skin and contains SPF 30+ broad spectrum. You are definitely being protected by the sun. It keeps the skin younger and more healthy but also is non-greasy. I got another person to try this product with me for a different opinion. We both really liked it because it wasn't thick but instead light, perfect for everyday use. I personally think it has a nice fragrance but does smell a bit like sunscreen. I don't mind the scent of sunscreen. The lotion is gentle and quite appealing and the packaging is cute but simple. One feature of the packaging which is great is that you twist the nozzle to lock it and to open it.  The results were that it left the skin smooth, soft, gentle and moisturised. I would recommend this product for mainly dry to dry combination skin. It retails for $14.69 and I rate it a four out of five!

Beauty Fix's picks for Christmas gifts in 2011. Perfect for friends and family!

I know this is kind of early for a Holiday Gift Guide but people are already buying Christmas presents. Holiday collections have come out in stores. So I wanted to show the best of what is out there! All prices are straight from philosophy.com

Sweet Kisses and Merry Wishes
$36
This set comes with four shower gels and four lip glosses, one in each of the four scents; sugar sprinkles funnel cake, peppermint bark, pomegranate bubbly and old fashioned eggnog. I love how there is a variety of scents and you can break it up to give to four friends, eight friends or that one special friend or family member. The box is good to store christmas body products for the future!

The Gingerbread Girl

The product features the shower gel and body lotion in the Gingerbread Girl. The packaging is really cute and is perfect if you want to give someone a bit more of a gift which they will use. The gift is quite affordable which is also perfect for Kris Kindle. This set could match a person's personality; being sweet. The size of the products are quite good and the set looks good to go under the christmas tree as is.

Much Mistletoeing
$20
The set comes with four lip glosses in tinsel town, cinnamon buns, marshmallows for toasting and peppermint bark. Once again, the gift is perfect to split up as four separate gifts, stocking fillers or one present. The packaging is cute with a tab to pull the lip glosses out. The price is great because when you participate in Kris Kindle the amount of money you have to spend is about $20. And come on, anyone girl would love christmas lip glosses from Philosophy (especially me; I a lip gloss fanatic).

Candy Cane Lane
$22
The product features a shower gel, body lotion and lip gloss in Candy Cane Lane. It makes a perfect festive present as it makes an ornament to hang on your tree. The set is great value for money and so cute. I would give this to my dancing friends as the box features a ballerina and I find that super cute. It is great for Kris Kindle and for good friends and family as it the perfect price.

Cinnamon Buns, The Gingerbread Girl, Partridge in a Pear Tree, Peppermint Bark and Snow Angel
Each set comes with a shower gel in a handy ornament box. I really like this gift and I think this is what I would definitely be buying for some of my friends this Christmas. These friends really appreciate beauty brands and I think that this a great little something to say Merry Christmas. There is a variety of scents to match each person and the packaging is really cute.

Fun in the Frosty Air

The product features three shower gels in sugar plum frost, fresh vanilla frost and ginger berry frost. I think this is the perfect gift to give another family as a shared family because everyone will use it. The size of each shower gel is great and I love the packaging. It is a great product overall and everyone will like it due to the variety of scents.

September Favourites

Favourites is what most bloggers do - record their favourite products every month!

Happy October! I guess it is out with the old and in with the new. I apologise for not doing an August Favourites as I as in Hawaii and had a lot of reviews to do. I am happy that this post is not really late. Yay!

So my first favourite covers the bath and body section. It is Country Chic Body Lotion from Bath and Body Works. We are in spring and I think this is perfect for this season. The scent is utterly beautiful but that is what I just think. Also it is quite thin and dries fast without the sticky feeling which is great for Spring and Summer approaching. There is a lot of product for the price which is $10.50. I just love it!

My nails favourite is OPI's Be a Dahlia Won't You? Wow, like all OPIs, it is easy to apply and long lasting. The colour is splendid and ggreat for spring. It is a rich and hot pink with glitter through it which just reminds me of flowers and the garden. It reminds me of spring.

Another favourite is my Sephora Brush Cleaner. You just squirt the product twice or so on the brush and wipe the brush on a cloth. It instantly cleans the brush. What I love most about the product is the scent. I personally like the scent because it smells like hairspray I think.

My favourite that covers the brush section is the Sephora Professionnel Blending Eye Brush. The brush is really soft and blends shadows well.

One of the two makeup favourites is mmy Mirenesse Forever Diamonds Lipstick in Fabbio. The shade is natural and gives a great sheen and colour. It is great with any look and gives moisture to lips. I can also feel the product plumping my lips which everyone loves.

The last favourite for September is my Paparazzi Perfect High Definition Eyeshadow in Totally Busted from Australis. I recently started using this and since creating my look  for the tutorial, I have fallen in love with the pink and gold. It is good quality and good pigmentation.

Let me know what you think. Comment below xx

Le Tan: Instant Face Tan

A new product from Le Tan called Le Tan Instant Face Tan!

Ever heard about the rule Body Tan should always match your face. Well, you should abide by it. It can be quite impossible but not anymore with Face Tan by Le Tan. Take a look at the video below that I put together to introduce you to review.

When I recieved this from Le Tan, I found it very interesting. It was the fact that not only did they create a fantastic invention of face tan but also because of the presentation. They used a Barbie doll with a body tan but no face tan.

I am excited to tell you about this product as it hasnt even come out yet! Le Tan Instant Face Tan provides the face a radiant glow whatever the weather. Now my philosophy about tanning is always fake it. I never naturally tan. It is always fake tan or spray tan and I like it because getting a natural tan is not good for you. But this tan is there on your face rain, hail or shine.

The formula is tinted and is long lasting and not streaky like all Le Tan's products. Also I like how the product is actually natural - looking and matches your body tan. Tanning has never been so fool-proof.
The difference between this and all the other products from Le Tan is that it is specially formulated for delicate face skin and also contains Vitamin E for hydration. Le Tan Instant Face Tan also has Lycopene with provides antioxidant protaction from environmental damage
