July Favourites! ♥
Welcome to my July Favourites
post! This is all the products or things I have been loving in the month of
July. enjoy!
Mario Badescu: I
have been trying out some Mario Badescu products lately so I'm going to talk
about what I have been loving...
Enzyme Cleansing Gel:
This is a non foaming gel cleanser
for all skin types. This washes away makeup, dirt and any oil without drying
the skin out. It brightens dull skin and
breaks down the build up of dead skin cells that cause breakouts and
blackheads. When I'm ready to take my
make-up off, I wet my skin and massage this gel cleanser into my skin then
rinse away and my make-up is gone! It's really easy and really quick. I did try
it on my eyes to take away my mascara and it did, and it did it easy and quick
but I had a little bit of stingy feeling in my eyeballs so I don't think your
meant to put it on your eyes. I was super impressed with how my make-up came
off so quick and how well my skin looked and felt. My skin felt fresh and clean
and soft. It smells fruity and fresh and feels soft and gentle!
Special Cucumber Lotion:
This is a soothing, refreshing,
disinfecting, and deep cleansing astringent for combination-oily skin. You can use this twice a day but I used this
of a night time. It removes oil, takes out bacteria, tightens pores and
prevents any breakouts and dries up existing breakouts. This does not dry the
skin out or burn/irritated my skin. Its super soothing and calms down breakouts
and redness. I use this on a round cotton pad and swipe on my face. My skin
feels refreshed, clean and slightly tight like its sucked out any oil and dirt
and disinfected my skin. It smells fresh
and helps control oil especially during the hot and stuffy weather!
Seaweed Night Cream:
This is for combination, oily and
sensitive skin. I love this night cream, every night I look forward to applying
it on my skin. Its lightweight but slightly thick. It's a green cream that
smells just like a spa! When I apply this my skin feels luxurious and hydrated.
When I wake up the next day my skin is baby soft, hydrated and has a slight
glow. This night cream hydrates the skin, without clogging pores. I love it,
nothing bad I can say about this cream. It's luxurious and keeps my skin
hydrated and soft.
Flower & Tonic Mask
This is a mask for combination,
oily and sensitive skin. This is a purifying & calming mask. It's going to
help tighten pores, absorb surface oil without drying the skin and calm redness
and sooth skin. It gives me a fresh start, sucks everything out to start again.
It tightened my pores and took all the oil and junk out of my skin but left it
super soft and hydrated. It dries quick so you don't have to wait around for it
to dry and it removes easy. It gives a tight feeling when its drying. love
using this mask!
That is all the Mario Badescu
products that I have been loving in the month of July. Moving on to make-up...
Sleek Blush in the colour Mirrored pink:
I have been using the blush for the
past 3 weeks now. I just can't get enough of this blush, I love how it gives a golden
highlight to the cheekbones so you don't have to apply highlight if you don't
want to/in a rush. The pigmentation is
insane, you only need a little bit. This is a beautiful, universal, mid tone
rose pink with fine golden and silver shimmer. This comes off as a satin finish
with a beautiful golden highlight that sits perfect on the cheekbones.
Miners Maxi volumising Mascara:
This mascara has thin wand that gives my lashes volume and
length. it does not clump or is to wet. It's an easy application and gives my
lashes a nice volume and lift. I like how it makes my lashes look and I like
the application! I have been using this mascara throughout July and I am really
happy with it.
The candy jar marshmallow hearts bath and shower gel:
Oh my goodness! This smell is
addictive! You want your nose to be attached to this bottle. This is a bath and
shower gel, but I use it for a bubble bath and sometimes body wash. It smells
like sweets, but its one of those scents that is addictive and smells so great!
If you see this in the shop you have to give it a smell, ah its perfect I'm
smelling it right now as I'm typing this. It has the most amazing sweet, candy
shop smell. It makes big, soft bubbles that last well in the bath, and makes my
body feel soft and smell amazing!
I have been loving a couple of

post since they are my favourites in this month.

Mario Badescu review! ♥
I was recently sent out some
Mario Badescu products to review. I have spent about 2 weeks trying these
products out and I now feel I have a truthful opinion on them. I hope you enjoy
reading and thank you Mario Badescu for sending me out these amazing products!
Disclaimer: Even though this
product has been sent to me from a company I ALWAYS do a 100% honest and
truthful review, all opinions are my own unless I state I have asked someone
like my family/friends. I will never do a dishonest review just because I have
been sent a product.
This is for oily/Combination skin and if
you are that skin type this toner is your best friend. I use this when my skin
feels oily, or I have clogged pores and when I feel my skin is breaking out.
This removes any oil from the skin, takes out bacteria and disinfects so it's
going to clear and help breakouts. This is also going to tone and remove any
traces of make-up. It smells very fresh and clean and feels cooling/soothing
and I also feel a little bit tight afterwards because it has took out any oil
and bacteria. This has soothed my skin and I have noticed my pores are not as
clogged and my oiliness has calmed down, I don't get oily that much during the
day. I highly recommend this to anyone with oily skin, breakouts and clogged
pores.
This is made for all skin types. If you
have breakouts mainly white heads you need this. This is a spot zapper! You
place a cotton bud into the bottle right the way into the pink powder, when it
comes out it will be wet and sort of like clay, You place it on any spots you
have and sleep with it on your face. I thought that it would become messy and
get everywhere while I sleep, but when I applied it, it dries on the skin quick
so it will not get everywhere while your sleeping. In the morning you wash it
off and your spot has gone (like poof gone ) It is amazing, such a holy grail
product. This zaps away spots that have fully come to the surface, and I notice
if I apply it to areas where a spot is coming but is under the skin, it takes
away the size and redness. Everybody needs this
product! Moisturize your skin after you have washed the drying lotion
off because it is ' drying' to the area you apply it. Oh I love this it's
highly recommend.
This is a lightweight moisturizer for
combination/sensitive skin. This protects the skin from any sun damage and
moisture loss. It feels very soft and silky, you can tell that it is not a
thick moisturizer. I love it for the morning time, before I apply my
make-up I like to apply this moisturizer because it plumps and
awakens my skin, moisturizers it and protects it from the sun. I
have found it also sets a nice base for my make-up. It does not break my
skin out even though it has SPF which for me a lot of moisturizers with
SPF break me out but this one has not. Also it has helped with large
pores. Great light moisturizer with SPF 15!
