AUTUMN BEAUTY PICKS

AUTUMN BEAUTY PICKS  

With the weather changing so rapidly, it’s the perfect time to give our skincare a little mix up and try out some new beauty products, these are our stand-out pieces!

 

Roloxin Instant Skin Smoothing Mask

The Roloxin Lift Instant Skin Smoothing Mask promises to provide reduced fine lines, pore and wrinkle reduction and skin smoothness, after one treatment.

It only takes 7 minutes, which is great for a lot of us who find taking 7 minutes out of our day incredibly hard at times. After applying the mask and washing off, I found my skin to be much more smoothed out, with reduced pores. It’s just the thing for big nights outs, giving us ladies a nice beauty boost before we hit the town. After all who doesn’t like to look like they’ve just walked out of a beauty salon!

Poirier d’un Soir Eau de Parfum

This is a sweet fragrance, with a rich floral scent; it’s the ideal choice of perfume for Autumn, with it’s rich heart of spice, Turkish rose, peony and birch tar oil leaving a earthy core signature. It can be worn in the daytime or evening. I like to wear mine throughout the day.

Oils of Life Intensely Revitalising Cream and Twin-Ball Facial Massager

Moisturiser containing oils are all the rage now and yes I will admit I’m a huge fan of the benefits of good quality and pure oils. The cream contains three precious seed oils that help revitalise and nourish your skin: rosehip seed oil, camellia seed oil and black cumin seed oil. The cream is rich in texture, so you only need a small amount, which sinks into the skin quickly leaving no oily residue. I use it at night, which allows me to wake up with a dewy glow and nourished skin. It’s the type of self-confidence you need when you know your skin will battle the cold wind throughout the day.

The facial massager, is small in size in comparison to other face rollers, giving it instant brownie points. It can be used to massage the face, neck and jawline. The action of the rolling balls encourages circulation and reduces puffiess, my skin looks plumped just after a few uses. Just like body brushing, this roller will definitely be a keeper and used in my beauty regime (a good investment).

Korres Almond and Linseed Shampoo and conditioner and Hair Mask

This hair care set is perfect for dry hair; it contains hydrating agents of Almond and Linseed to nourish dry hair and prevent breakage and split ends. When washing your hair only a small amount is needed, which means the bottles can last for months. One of the main selling points for me are Korress hair care is silicone and paraben free. After washing my hair with both the shampoo and conditioner, it’s instantly hit with a sweet Almond scent, which I love! My hair now looks less dull, dry and frizzy.

We certainly don’t consider hair masks as much as we should do and I’m guilty of this, the Almond and Linseed hair mask comes in a thick cream that you can easily spread all over your hair. You put the hair mask on before you shampoo and conditioner your hair, you only keep on for a few minutes before rinsing. I found it reduced my tangled hair and I felt the difference in softness after my hair was dry. Nourished hair also make you look a lot healthier and we all know how mood altering a good hair day is.

It’s a luxurious moisturiser for oily and combination skin. The organic Geranium oil has a balancing and calming effect on the skin. Thistle, is extracted from the seeds of the Safflower thistle, this oil is packed with omega 6, great at clearing congested skin. After using this for two weeks, I noticed my skin looking plumped and less red and irritated, it also smells great, lightly scented and not over powering. Pai is loved by so many celebrities and I can certainly see why.
