Review: RMK Cleansing Balm!

It's been a while since I was last on the blogging front! Haha. It's time to get back into the swing of things now!

I have finally used up this tub of RMK cleansing balm. I would definitely say it's a product worth investing in as you can get so many uses out of it. It has a pleasant rose scent which makes the whole make up removing process feel less of a chore. Like all RMK products, the ingredients used within this product are all natural. This has always been one of the reasons why RMK has become one of my favourite skincare brands over the years. 

Normally, I would use an eye make up remover to remove any mascara/eyeliner and then go over my face with some facial wipes. Therefore, I use the RMK cleansing balm as a final step in the make up removing process. The product is great for getting rid off any foundation that the wipes may not have been able to remove, and it leaves the skin feeling soft. The RMK cleansing balm is a product that I would recommend to others, and certainly one that I may repurchase in the near future.

The RMK cleansing balm can be purchased here!

Bebe Poshe Bronzer.

This is a bronzing powder from an Asian make up brand, Bebe Poshe. The brand is well known in Asia, Taiwan in particular, as the founders of the brand are famous socialites. I really wanted to try out one of their products after seeing the brand being mentioned many times on the internet.

I personally think that the product is quite well suited for Asian (Chinese) people, who have more of a yellow skin tone. However, this does not mean that you can slather it on. You've still got to be quite cautious that you don't over do the contouring! Unfortunately the camera didn't pick up the colour too well on the last picture shown above. However, you can still tell that it's a lovely bronze colour from the palette in the third picture. This bronzing powder has a slight shimmer to it which is one of the downsides to the product. Don't worry though, it isn't too obvious! Before, I was always quite worried about buying bronzers as I think that it's quite difficult trying to find one that doesn't make you look orange or "muddy." I wasn't as worried about purchasing this one because after all, the brand is from Asia, so naturally, it should be a product that is aimed towards the Asian/Chinese market in general. I personally don't mind using this bronzer but I wouldn't rate it as the best one out there.

Have you tried any Bebe Poshe products?

Bobbi Brown Face Touch Up Stick.

I think this was my first Bobbi Brown product...ever. I was looking for a concealer and I somehow came across this one. I got it in the shade 3.5 (warm beige) which is very close to my skin colour. I like how it is easy to work with because of its creamy consistency. It feels very smooth on the skin and doesn't leave you with dry patches. However, it isn't long lasting. I guess that is why it is referred to as a "touch up stick." I love how it's so small which makes it easy to carry around in your make up bag/handbag. I would use it all over my face, including any blemishes, and even on my under eye area, although it was suggested that it shouldn't be used on that area. It's okay to be rebellious every now and then. I did buy another stick after using this but somehow it has disappeared and I cannot seem to relocate it. Overall, it's a nice product as it doesn't feel too heavy on the skin but its lasting power can be a slight problem.

You can purchase the Bobbi Brown Face Touch Up Stick here, at Debenhams!

RMK Ingenious Gel Eye liner (01 Black).

This was kind of an impulse buy. I always look forward to trying RMK's products. This very black gel eyeliner gives a fairly easy and smooth application. It has a lovely texture compared to some of the gel eyeliners I have previously tried.

Gel eyeliners are quite hard to work with initially, just like any other form of eyeliner. Even until today, I'm still no pro when it comes to drawing any sort of line/flick on my eyelids! They say practice makes perfect...I guess they meant A LOT of practice.

I have used this eyeliner a reasonable amount of times and I have noticed that it doesn't seem to stay that well in place, especially if I apply it on my waterline. If I'm careful and my make up hasn't been on my face for too long, I can get the product to stay on my eyelid pretty well but it smudges a lot in the corners of my eyes and on my lower lash line if I choose to apply any excess around the waterline which is very annoying. I personally have very oily eyelids and my eyes can be quite "teary" at times (especially during summer time) so this may be one of the reasons why I have problems with the product. It just isn't waterproof/smudge proof enough for me to like it. I enjoy using RMK's products and have done for many years, but this was sadly a let down for me. Although its staying power isn't great on my skin, it's definitely better than some of the eyeliners I've tried in the past!

It can be purchased here! - Selfridges.com - Price: £23.

Review: Creme de La Mer - The Tonic!

Soooo...I decided to go all out and treat my skin to some Creme de La Mer toner! The toner smells lovely and is gentle on the skin! The bottle lasted me for around two months and during this period, I noticed that my skin felt softer than usual. I've always had a problem with choosing toners as there are so many on the market and a lot of them seem to contain a lot of alcohol, which my skin does not like.

The packaging is kept nice and simple here, but recently the brand has changed the packaging of quite a few of its products (it looks better)!

I would say that this toner is suitable for most skin types. If you have really oily skin, I would suggest using the oil absorbing tonic instead as the tonic tends to be more moisturising and therefore, it might be too much for those who have very oily skin. However, you could try using a lighter moisturiser if you want to use the tonic (that is if you have oily skin).

This toner is definitely a good product, however, do not expect it to control those breakouts. It simply tones the skin and gives it a healthy glow.

My skin seemed to like the tonic and it is definitely a product I would consider repurchasing. The only downside to it is its high price tag! I guess looking after your skin comes at a high cost!

RMK Firming Essence Review!

I've already been through a couple of bottles! Originally I wanted to purchase the "brightening" version of this but RMK stopped selling it as they were having issues with the product. This firming essence may sound as if it's only suitable for older individuals but I personally think that it's a good product. It has definitely kept my skin moisturised. Usually, I will get the occasional dry patch on my face (usually around my nose) when winter arrives but this hasn't happened lately *touch wood*.

I must also comment on the scent of this product! Normally I don't care too much about the scent of products, as long as they don't stink! However, this one just goes unnoticeable! It smells really nice! It definitely is RMK's nicest smelling skincare product to date!

The packaging of the product is good too! I like how it's in a glass bottle as it feels more luxurious. It's great how it has a pump too! I hate it when I have to dig into a moisturiser tub! I find it so unhygienic!

As I have oily skin, applying this as well as a toner and sunscreen can sometimes be a little heavy for my skin so it's important that you don't apply too much if you have the same problem! However, this won't stop me from purchasing the product in future!

Bobbi Brown Hydrating Eye Cream Review!

This little tub has lasted me ages! I personally think that it's a good eye cream! It's hydrating and absorbs quickly! I hate it when eye creams are thick/greasy. This Bobbi Brown eye cream is lightweight which makes it a good base for your eye make up! However, don't expect it to get rid off those panda eyes because it ain't going to happen! It was simply made to keep the under eye area nice and hydrated. This was my first time using a product from the Bobbi Brown skincare line. I shall look forward to trying more of their products in the near future. May I also say that I like their packaging! It's simple, yet chic!

Pore Care Pack Review!

I had never seen or heard of this product until a relative of mine gave it to me. I was personally quite impressed. Although it didn't get rid off all my blackheads like all other pore strips that I have tried in the past, it did appear to make a difference. These pore strips are definitely better than some of the ones I have previously tried. According to the packaging, it's made of natural charcoal too, which is a bonus! I would like to try this product again but sadly, it's an Asian beauty product so I'm pretty sure I would have difficulty trying to repurchase!

Kleenex Shine Absorbing Sheets (Powder free)!

Hey everyone!
Exams are over so yeah, lots of time for blogging now...kind of!

I've finally finished using the Kleenex shine absorbing sheets (oil blotting paper), which are powder free. Normally I like to use the Clean and Clear oil blotting sheets but seeing as I go through a million boxes of Kleenex tissues every year, I thought I'd give this new "beauty" product of theirs a go! I was actually quite happy with my purchase! They certainly do get rid off any shine on the face and are powder free, which is an important factor for me! I hate it when you blot your face with blotting paper and it leaves your skin with weirdly coloured powder residue! Another good thing about these Kleenex blotting sheets is that it's easy to get hold of in the UK! We don't have the Clean and Clear oil blotting sheets in the UK, and so, I tend to have to stock up whenever I go to Asia, or order online.

Please let me know what kind of blog posts you would like to see! :D

Ciao!

Product Of The Day: St Ella Total Solution Eye Contour Cream!

☆☆☆

This is probably the first eye cream that I have ever used up in my entire life! I was determined to finish it so that I could see whether it really did help with my panda eyes. First of all, it's light on the skin, which is a bonus. It absorbs quickly into the skin. To be honest, I don't use my eye cream every morning and every night. I have my lazy days when I either can't be bothered or I completely forget. However, I have tried to be good and use an eye cream on a frequent basis. I bought this eye cream when I was on holiday last year. I found that Sonia Sui, who is a famous Taiwanese actress and model, does commercials for this brand so that was one selling point for me. After using the whole tube, I didn't really see how it reduced my dark circles. However, I remember my cousin telling me a week after using this product that my eyes did look better. Therefore, I would not say that it's a bad product. I guess I was simply expecting more.

Which eye creams have you tried?
