Loreal 3 in 1 Purifying Micellar Solution Review

 
I have wanted to try the ever so famous Bio- Derma for a long time now and I just can't get my hands on a bottle so when I heard that Loreal had brought out a dupe I was very excited!!
I am already on my second bottle of this, I pick mine up from Asda and it is £2.50 and even though this is a drugstore dupe I still think that is a really good price, but at the end of the day all it is is glorified water!!
 
I use this every night to remove my make up then I cleanse with my Emma Hardy Cleansing Balm as I don't like using that to remove my make up. I used to use wipes to remove my make up after listening to Caroline Hirons I decided to change my skin care routine quite dramatically.
 
So this was one new product in my routine I use two cotton wool pads and soak them in the solution, I use one for my face and one for my eyes. It just seems to dissolve my make up away really gently and effectively. It isn't harsh on my eyes and if you just hold the pad down on your eyes for a few seconds it softens the make up and when you wipe it away it comes off without vigorously scrubbing at your eyes.
 
This product is a great alternative to face wipes as these just seems to wipe the make up and dirt round your face whereas this seems to pick up all the impurities from the skin. It makes your skin real really clean and soft and for this price I can't complain about anything at all!!

Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquer Review


I have heard so much about these lip lacquers and since I have alot of respect for Rimmel as a brand I thought i would give them a go. I have so many lipsticks and lip glosses so I didn't really see the point in buying a product which combines the two together but I'm glad I did!!
The shade I really wanted was the bright pink one called Apocaliptic but they didn't have that one in my store so I got Nova and Nude Eclipse which I love and Galaxy which I'm not to sure about. I find it too dark for my complexion, I usually only wear pink or nudes on my lips and galaxy is more of a deep berry shade.
The lip lacquers themselves are really great products they give you the best of both worlds, giving you the lasting power of a matte lipstick and the shine of a gloss. Although I find that if my lips are even the slightest bit dry then the product seems to stick to those patches but if I apply a lip balm first they go on beautifully.
They don't feel too dry on the lips at first and the actual base ( the lipstick part) seems to set in place and last all day but I do find I have to re apply a gloss over the top to stop my lips from drying out.
From this review it doesn't sound like I really like this product but I do. I think they do a great job at combining a lip stick and gloss together and the shades are lovely. The price is £5.99 and so overall I think they are definitely worth the price and I will be trying to get my hands on Apocaliptic.
