Elemis Pro-Radiance Hand and Nail Cream

I am definitely one of these people that suffers from dry hands and cuticles so a rich hand cream is a must for me! I have been using this hand and nail cream by Elemis for a while now and it didn't take long to have a real impact.

As a make-up artist i find that i use alcohol gel all the time on my hands before going near anybodies face and it tends to try my hands out a lot, using this is like a rescue for my hands. It's so incredibly soft and nourishing it even helps my horrible dry cuticles to soften up (i have a nasty habit of biting my cuticles) and that is a miracle!

This retails at £23 and you can get it HERE

Darphin Purifying Balm

I have been using the Darphin Purifying balm for about 2 months now and i am in love, before i had this in my life i had never used a face oil or balm at all until one of my friends told me she used one and swore by it. I had used Darphin products before and loved them so i thought i would give it a go and i have never looked back!

I use it 2-3 nights a week and a swear it heals my skin over night, i have never seen such results before it's like i can actually see the skin has been healed! You only need a small amount warmed into the palms and them pressed gently into the face and neck and voila you have yourself and amazing over night treatment.

It's not the cheapest thing on the market, it retails at £42 however i couldn't be without this in my skincare routine now. Check it out HERE

I'm not sure that actually claims to heal but that is honestly how i describe it's affect on my skin, have any of you used this? Do you find it healing, or have you worked with Darphin and know whether it is healing? I would love to know your thoughts :-)

Disappointing Products #1

Here are a few products that i have found slightly disappointing recently, i don't have too many which i think is a pretty good thing considering all of the products i have used. I hope you like this video and let me know which products you find disappointing.

Tom Ford Sahara Noir

Laura Mercier Vanille Gourmande

There are a few scents that i am obsessed with and the smell of vanilla is definitely one of them! This fragrance is one that is always commented on and everyone asks what i am wearing (especially men for some reason) and when ever any of my friends wear it i can smell it all day and i love that about a fragrance.

It's very light, not a heavy scented vanilla (some vanilla smells can be quite sickly) and i think it is the perfect summer smell, i currently have a bottle i keep in my handbag and when i feel i need a little pick me up, i give it a little spritz and it makes me feel better every time!

This retails at £41.50 and you can get it HERE
