Beauty By Nicholas Eye Alchemy

Image
I have been waiting patiently for some time now to use the Beauty By Nicholas Eye Alchemy. I like to finish existing products before opening new ones, and it felt like the eye cream I was using was just not giving up. Taken from Priceline - "Ditch dark circles, bags and crow's feet with instant eye candy. This highly effective formula is gentle on your delicate eye area, to instantly smooth and brighten without painful procedure." The eye cream comes in the typical packaging of the Beauty By Nicholas range. I really like the classy look of the chrome cylinder, but I also find it inconvenient not knowing how much is left in the container. Dispensing the product can be done through the pump top dispenser. The consistency of the eye product is that of a light weight serum.  Although I normally love a pump top dispenser, I find that this one can get messy as the pump can squirt the product out too quickly, plus for me it's too much product for an applicati...

Beauty By Nicholas Omega Hydroxy

The Beauty by Nicholas Omega Hydroxy serum is a product I won in a prize pack. I received it months ago, but because I like to use products up first before opening new ones, this one had to wait. I was so happy when I finally had the opportunity to apply the serum to my face. Taken from Priceline - "Reveal your inner glow with Omega Hydroxy. Forget the pain, costs and downtime of laser and chemical peels, this deeply exfoliating, resurfacing treatment helps brighten and revitalise your skin, leaving it feeling seriously clean, refined and renewed." The serum is packaged in a chrome bottle with red label. There is 50 ml of product in the bottle and it has a pump-top to dispense product. I love that it has airless packaging, I just find it inconvenient not being able to see how much product I have left. The serum has a very lightweight creamy consistency and has an almost floral with a hint of chemical, lol. Sounds bad, but it's not, the fragrance isn'...

Beauty By Nicholas Plump It Up

I received the Beauty By Nicholas Plump It Up as part of a prize pack from beauty website Beauty Heaven's Instagram page. I have had it for a while and finally got around to using it once a place opened up in my skincare routine. Taken from Beauty By Nicholas - "Plump It Up is a high-precision volumising cream, concentrated in active ingredient Adipofill'inTM. This cream will deliver an instant plumping effect, creating visual volume, while giving it an overall lift, as well as intense hydration." The cream comes in a 50 ml airless cylinder with pump-top dispenser, I love this kind of delivery system because it is hygienic and the product is not exposed to air. Although I do like the look of the chrome packaging, I would prefer to be able to see inside to see how much product I have left. A non-issue really. Anyway, the product is a very light-weight cream, falls into almost serum category for me and that's how I use it morning and night before moistur...

Beauty By Nicholas No No Needles

Image
After winning a Beauty By Nicolas skincare pack on a Beauty Heaven Instagram giveaway, the product that I was most intrigued to try was the No No Needles. Taken from Beauty By Nicholas - "This gentle but effective formula delivers visible results without painful injections or that frozen look. You will see instant wrinkle relaxing, line smoothing results and even bigger benefits with long term usage." The packaging is very interesting to say the least. The serum comes in a silver cylinder with a pump to dispense. Not just any pump, this one comes complete with a metal ball on the end for application. The serum has a gel-like consistency. I like the idea of the ball for applying the product to the desired areas, but I find I have to be careful of the amount dispensed using the pump. It is hard to control the product released, I often pump too much for the small areas that I want to apply. The easiest way for me to apply is pump the product, apply using my fingers, the...
