Quick Reviews on Skin Care Buys From K-Beauty.

(Some products were gifted*)

I’ve been a fan of K-beauty for quite some time now because their skincare approach focuses on gentle hydration to achieve a healthy glow what is known as "glass skin." Using high quality ingredients and technology far more advanced and cheaper than the western world (which is rumoured to be ahead by as much as 12 years!) 

Now let’s be real, I know at the age of 47, my days of achieving glass skin has long gone, lol! In fact, I don’t think my skin ever had the luck of the draw to begin with. But what I have to agree with is since using the slightest drop of anything from that side of the world has definitely helped put some  radiance back into my skin - even at my age.

So, it wasn’t long before I wanted to delve in more of what Korean Beauty had to offer, and while I was at it, I thought I’d throw in a cult status from Japan too! I decided it was high time I experienced my first shop with big Asian website, Yes Style, which as British Beauty Blogger Jane rightly pointed out is like cat nip! They've always got some promotion going on featuring a ton of offers from big brands from South Korea and Japan as well as few bits and pieces from the U.S such as e.l.f. Apart from offering beauty products they also sell accessories, homeware and even clothing (post not sponsored, by the way.)

BH Cosmetics – Desert Oasis Eyeshadow & Highlighter Palette - Review & Swatches

Did I really need a new one? No, of course, I didn’t. But for some strange reason, the beginning of a new year sees me set my sights on a new palette in some form to take with me on my Summer hols. Knowing I had enough palettes to open up a small shop, I decided I wasn’t going to pay very much for this latest one. I had been eyeing up this palette for months after seeing Youtuber, Tati Westbrook raving about it. So, I decided the Desert Oasis Eyeshadow & Highlighter palette from B.H Cosmetics would hopefully be the one I’d be packing as it really does have a tropical vibe to it! Then ABH released Riviera! Lol!

C.Y.O Lifeproof Long Lasting Foundation - Review & Swatches

The C.Y.O Long Lasting Foundation has been raved about by many who claim it’s a beautiful, long wearing foundation that doesn’t cake or emphasise dryness. I particularly wanted to try this after Youtuber Angie from Hot & Flashy loved it on her mature skin. As well as the claims, what really got me excited was the price and the ease of accessibility. Even in my little seaside town. (Whoop, whoop!)

Sesderma arrives to the U.K bringing its best-seller sold every 30 seconds!

(Post contains Gifted Items*)

Sesderma is a dermatologists-led skincare brand from Spain who have produced a range of specialist skin care treatments to target skin concerns for the face and body and also for the hair. The company was founded in 1989 by a group of dermatologists led by DR Gabriel Serrano and can now be accessed in over 30 countries. I think it’s really exciting that Sesderma has arrived into the U.K as one product in particular is sold every 30 seconds - Azelaic Ru Liposomal Serum (£40.80, 30ml*). Unbeknown to me, it's rumoured Brits have been stocking up on this much-loved serum whilst holidaying in Spain due to reports it gives amazing results from sun damage.
