Clarins Moisture-Rich Body Lotion 200ml

What? Clarins Moisture-Rich Body Lotion 200ml
How much? About £29

This is intended to be a body moisterizer but I use it for my face and body. I used to use Garnier youthful radiance but it left a greasy finish that made some of my foundations clump and I'm sure was not great for my skin. I have combination skin, where sometimes is quite oily but mostly very dry. The Garnier used to bring me up with red splodges.

Clarins is good because its all natural products and absorbs into the skin quite nicely. There was no greasy finish and it left my skin feeling quite smooth and soft without any reaction. I expected to lose this nice effect quite quickly as with some moisterizers the effects are temporary, but no. I had soft skin for the whole day! Quite an accomplishment!

It is a bit pricey, but if you suffer from dry skin then it is a good buy because it will get rid of flakiness and return your skin to normal.

If you have any questions, ask away!

True Match - Loreal

What? True match super blendable

How Much? £10

So this is the newer one of the Loreal foundation and it's an upgrade from the original true match. This one is so much better because it's a lot more blendable. It is so similar to Clinique 'Even Better' which is good because it is much cheaper. The colours really blend well to my skin and I only had to spend about five minutes finding the right shade.

The only problem is that after a short while it starts to go a bit cakey but it's still quite good. It's definitely worth a try!!!
