To Repurchase Or Not To Repurchase- Elizabeth Arden Prevage Clarity Targeted Skintone Corrector

Fine lines, not a fan, dark circles, ugh, but what I hate the most about my skin is the pigmentation. Of course, this skin problem is so difficult to reduce, let alone be rid of.


When I was lucky enough to receive Elizabeth Arden Prevage Clarity Targeted Skintone Corrector in a prize pack, I was ecstatic. I've used and LOVE other products from the Prevage range, so couldn't wait to get this serum onto my skin. 

Combined with Soy Ferulate-C, known for its skin brightening properties, this product contains the patented Idebenone, a powerful antioxidant. Results are expected to be seen in 14 days.

The product is packaged in an airless bottle with pump-top lid. This makes the product hygienic and ensures that the ingredients remain active. What I find inconvenient about the packaging is not being able to see how much product remains in the bottle.
The serum is of a light fluid consistency. Yellow in colour with an iridescent sheen. This sheen isn't visible once applied to the skin. I only needed 1 pump, because I only applied the serum onto my face. It absorbed quickly, making it a convenient step in my skincare routine.

 Would I repurchase? Yes, well that's if my budget allowed for it. I love what this serum has done for my skintone. Ok, I still have pigmentation, but my skin seemed to love this product, appearing brighter and fresher, which is always a bonus for ageing skin. Although it is quite light, I found that it still added hydration to my skin.

 Elizabeth Arden Prevage Clarity Targeted Skincare is a credit to the impressive Prevage line. What I would do to be able to afford the entire range, my skin loves it!

    Oh yey!! I love positive outcomes Indie. I'm so happy this worked for you. Wouldn't it be lovely if such a quality brand was more affordable. Maybe you could make an excuse to buy it when there is a GWP offer on. I got a E.A GWP a few years back and loved it :D. I bought a E.A lippy to qualify and I still have it :D

      I was so excited that this product was part of the Glosscars pack that I was lucky enough to win. Great idea to look out for GWPs, hun xx

      I'm not sure I can rework my budget quite that well. Totally worth the money, tho :)

    Hmmmm this is interesting to read Indie. I use an Elizabeth Arden Foundation and had to buy some more yesterday and received a beautiful make-up bag with some Prevage items and other E.A. make-up items. Have never used any of their products before but am guessing that they are probably out of my price range. :-(

      There certainly out of my budget, Mandy. I love the chance to try a luxe brand, but when they work so well, it's sad to finish them

    I am so tempted to try something from the Prevage range but it's definitely an investment. Congratulations on scoring such a great product, I guess I should start saving...

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...
