Nip+Fab Glycolic Fix

Hello Lovlies,

Throughout my teenaged years I never had problem skin, I was one of the lucky ones that would get a spot every blue moon, however in the last couple of months my skin has been going down hill. It could be a number of things: diet, water intake, products or stress. My current skin care routine isn't clearing it up very well so I did some research on clearing up spots and blemishes and a lot of articles were talking about Glycolic Acid. Glycolic Acid is used to help clean up acne, I don't know the science behind it but its good for spotty skin. So I look a bit further to find some affordable products that include Glycolic Acid, and I found a skincare line called Nip+Fab (I've used there Dry Legs Fix and love it) and while having a little nosy on their website I found that they do a Glycolic Acid line which include a cleanser, scrub, serum, exfoliated pads.  I just had to picked up the cleanser and the scrub! 

The Glycolic Fix Cleanser claims to be 'deep cleansing, purifying formula for clear and radiant skin.It contains 2% glycolic acid which gently exfoliates and retextures, apple amino acid which cleanses and purifies and also olive oil which hydrated and smoothes'. You can defiantly smell that apple which gives it a really refreshing clean sort of smell, which I really do like. It is quite an oily texture which comes from the olive oil but when its massaged into your skin it tuns into a milky foaming solution. It melts any make up off and your skin really does feel super clean once the produce has been washed off. This is a wonderful product to just use when you have a few breakouts. I love it! 

The Glycolic Scrub Fix this is an '3in1 micro exfoliant with glycolic and salicylic acid to refine, brighten and renew. It contains 3% glycolic acid which gently exfoliates and retextures, salicylic acid which cleanses pores.' I wouldn't say this has a particular smell to it which I don't mind. I think this is a sugar based scrub. the only thing I dislike about this product is how abrasive the scrub is, you couldn't use this more then a couple times a week. However saying that my skin did feel super clean and a lot brighter so if you can put up with the abrasive scrub I'd differently recommend it! 

To finish my skin off I use The Body Shop Vitamin E Overnight Serum-in-oil which just added some hydration to my skin. I am preferring using an oil on my skin then a cream. 

What are your spot banishing products? 

I hope you enjoyed this blog post and sorry they have been lacking lately a lot has been going on! I hope you have a lovely weekend whatever you have planned! 

Much Love

My April Favourites

Hello Lovlies, 

As it's the first of May now - where is this year going -  I thought i'd share with you my April Favourites. Hope you enjoy! 

Make Up Favourites! 

 Hoola Benefit - I rediscovered this product this month and  have fallen back in love with it! It's the perfect bronzer to use as a contour, as it has no shimmer to it and just gives your face a lovely sun kissed glow! Perfect for Spring/Summer! 

Rockateur Benefit - This is a new product in my little make up collection, and I am completely in love with it! It just a gorgeous rose gold/ peachy shimmery blush that looks amazing on! 

 True Match Foundation L'oral Paris - I have been using this product every day this month and I think i will continue using this product throughout May too. The coverage is flawless i'd stay is a medium coverage but is very build able! I love it!! 

Revlon Colourstay Concealer - This concealer is very similar to the Collection Lasting Perfection in the way its a cream formula and has a brush applicator, but it think I prefer the Revlon one, it just blends into a flawless coverage and lasts all day and doesn't crease under the eyes. 

Hypnose Star Mascara (Waterproof) Lancome - This is another product that I brought for the hype and forgot I even had it, so when I rediscovered it this month and fell back in love with it and realised why there is so much hype with this product! I have the waterproof one and I think the brush is slightly different, but it really really does last all day, doesn't smudge at all. I reckon this will be perfect for beach days! 

Random Favourites! 

The Hills - I loved The Hills Reality TV Show when it was on tv back in 2008 ish time. Ive been full of cold lately and have been watching all the series. I have for sure fallen in love with The Hills again! 

Chocolate - For those who celebrate Easter of course chocolate had to be in my favourites! 

Thank you for reading my April Favourites and a new post will be up soon! 

Much Love
