Lanolips Lemonaid Lip Aid

I wish I could credit the blogger who raved about Lanolips Lemonaid Lip Aid, it was because of her that I was convinced to grab myself a tube, and unfortunately, I seriously can't remember what blog I was reading.

 With a Lanolin base, the Lip Aid also contains organic lemon oil. This ingredient gently exfoliates the lips without the need for any harsh physical exfoliating ingredient. The medical grade lanolin in this product not only gives a gloss finish, it also hydrates and softens lips.
The balm comes in a 12.5 tube, with screw top lid.

Under the lid is a doe foot head with small hole, so you can squeeze the tube, as you apply to the lips.

Not as solid as a balm, but still quite thick.

I get terribly dry lips. I often have to resort to just wear a lip balm, because lipstick just does not look good on chapped lips.

Even the more hydrating balm needs constant reapplication, and they still don't always leave me with the soft, smooth lips that I long for.

Now, I have known about lip scrubs for some time now, and yes I have tried one for myself. But, I just found it rather harsh, with my lips feeling sore after using. I did not like the fact that my lips felt raw. 

The fact that this balm is a chemical exfoliator appealed to me, which led me to a purchase of Lanolips Lemonaid Lip Aid, thanks to that wonderful blogger. 

I use this before bed (when I remember!). So smooth and hydrating to use. Oh, and the smell and taste of tangy, sweet lemony flavour..yummmmm!

When I wake up, my lips don't feel so dry and tight. I love that not only are they gently being exfoliated, but also cared for with the hydration lanolin offers.

Don't get me wrong, I still need lip balm throughout the day, but I'm not forever pulling or biting dead skin off of my lips, as gross as that sounds! 

I believe my lips would be even more improved if I was more constant with nightly application, certainly something I need to work on.

What an amazing lip treatment. 

 I would now really like to also try a lip mask. Have you used one? If so, can you recommend a lip mask to me?

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...
