Indio Skincare

I recently purchased some Indio products from sale site Brands Exclusive. I often quickly delete emails from the sale sites that I've signed up to, only because I get too tempted, but I thought I'd check it out for the skincare. I've never heard of Indio Skincare before, and a quick look at the site revealing that the company is Australian was a definite pro for me. I purchased Vitamin A serum, Vitamin C serum (musts for my anti-aging skincare routine) and Multi-V serum.












These serums are 15ml in size. For this order I payed $68.95 for the Vitamin A serum with the Vitamin C serum free, and the Multi-V serum $54.95. Postage was $10.50, which is a bit steep for local shipping, but at a total of $134.40 for active products, I thought that I was getting them for a good price.


Taken from the site: Vitamin C Serum is described as "A 12% Vitamin C featuring the potent Japanese Nikkol VCIP Vitamin C ester. It has outstanding transdermal absorption and anti-oxidant activity and assists in the reduction of premature aging and brightening of the skin. (For all skin types, including sensitive)"
Vitamin A serum is "A superior formulation packed full of the best of the best key ingredients in fighting anti-aging and free radical damage. Contains lipiud layer enhancers, wrinkle smoothing peptides, vitamins, antioxidants to enhance and improve the skin, smooth wrinkles, improve firmness, rejuvenates and imparts a more clearer, more vibrant complexion. (Suitable for all skin types)"
Multi-V serum has "Encapsulated vitamins A, H and F to even out skintone, hydrate and revitalise the skin while reducing the appearance of redness. Excellent for skin needing extra nourishment and balancing of the sebaceous activities. Great for acne and rosacea sufferers. The Biotin and Allantoin have strengthening properties and ingredients such as Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis providing large amounts of hydration. Also contains Green tea, which is an antioxidant. (For all skin types)"


Ok, after such spiels, how could I resist??? ;) I am yet to use these serums because the OCD in me must use up current skincare (as long as it's not causing problematic reactions) before starting new products. Rest assured, I will be posting my thoughts once I have been using these amazing SOUNDING serums.

BH Cosmetics Carli Bybel Deluxe Palette and Giveaway

Image
When BH Cosmetics released the original Carli Bybel palette I was tossing up whether I was going to purchase it or not. Sure, it was pretty with lovely neutral shades, but I was trying to cut down my eye shadow palette buying to only palettes that I really, really had to have and I wasn't convinced that was the case. When the Carli Bybel Deluxe version was released containing 15 shadows and 6 highlighters as opposed to the original which had 10 eye shadows and 3 highlighters, I had to have it. I went as far as pre-ordering the palette before it was even released. The sneak peek swatches had won me over! Taken from BH Cosmetics - "This palette features 11 original shades plus 10 chic new shadows and highlighters in buttery blendable formulas with staying power." The palette is a large square with magnet closure and complete with a cardboard sleeve. The palette is so pretty, I love the rose gold writing on the quilted pintuck background design. Opening the palet...

BYS Berries Palette

Image
I have bought from the brand BYS in the past, but I can't say I've actually sought out anything from them. Well, that was until I saw swatches popping up on my Instagram feed of the Berries palette.  It's a 12 pan palette and has a similar vibe going on to the much loved and raved about ABH Modern Renaissance palette. Of course, I do not own the pricier ABH palette, but I just had to have the Berries palette. Taken from BYS - "BYS Berries Eye Shadow Palette features an array of 12 expertly chosen, highly pigmented matte and metallic eye shadows. The 12 piece palette comes housed in a modern, embossed tin. featuring a mirror and 2 dual end applicators." The tin packaging of this palette is really cute, it reminds me of the Naked 2 and 3 palettes. It is a little bulky, but I like it. Let's take a peek inside Oh yes, I'm all about those warm orange and plum tones. There are 3 shimmery shades and the rest are matte. Here's the sw...

It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector

Image
I was once again sucked into buying some bargain products from Ozsale . Part of my order was 4 serums from the brand It's Skin. Being a Korean brand I really wanted to try some products. I couldn't find a lot of information about It's Skin online, but the Power 10 Formula range sounded pretty good. I really wanted to try them all at once, but to get an idea of how each serum performed I restrained myself by using one serum at a time. The first one I tried was the VC Effector. The serum is no longer available on Ozsale, but I found it for sale on Beauty Bay - "A clarity improving skin serum designed for all skin types. Enriched with a blend of naturally derived, active ingredients, the It's Skin Power 10 Formula VC Effector worfs effectively to reduce the appearance of discolouration and dark spots. With a lightweight serum texture its quickly absorbed into the skin offering brightening and lightening effects, whilst simultaneously suppressing melanin prod...
