Weekend Wonders #2

Well can you Adam and Eve it? It's that time again, for me to share my Weekend Wonders with you. The weeks are flying by and Spring will soon be here, YAY!


I've gone a little skincare mad and dug out my Clarisonic Mia, I'm giving it another whizz. I'm sure you all don't need to be bored to death about it. It's a one-button sonic cleansing brush...a giant electric tooth brush basically! I like to use a cleanser which foams/lathers up well, I find it works better that way. I have tested the Liz Earle C&P with it and some days it seems to work and other days not so much. I would love to know if you have a Clarisonic and what you're favourite cleanser is when using it??
The next product which I've been using and loving is the fabulous Bioderma Micelluar Water, this is part of the sensitive range- Sensibio. In case you've just surfaced from hibernation Bioderma will be launching in the UK very soon, hopefully Spring time! WHOOP WHOOP! I am so excited, I'm really keen to try this in the green range, combination/oily skin type.


OK so as you can probably tell I've gone a bit skincare mad this week/end, I have been trying Alpha-H for the very first time. It's been very exciting especially after reading and hearing so many positive things about the brand and their products. I will be blogging about the products in a separate blog post very soon so I won't go into much detail here. All I will say is FAB...the four products I've been trying is the Balancing Cleanser, Liquid Gold, Age Delay Night Cream and the Absolute Eye Complex* and they've all been a pleasure to use.
Whilst we're still in the skincare zone the last Weekend Wonder to be recognised is the Clinique Turnaround Overnight  Moisturiser*, I will be reviewing this so keep a look out! I use this alernate evenings from the Alpha-H range and both combinations are working wonders! See what I did there? *wink wink*

 

The other products which have been working wonders is the Milk_Shake Conditioning Whipped Cream*, this has become a staple for me since having a fringe cut in. It smells yummy and you only need a small amount, I use a little bit just for my fringe before blow drying. It's actually a leave-in conditioner which is in the form of a foam. Once hair is almost dry I use an oil, I don't have a firm favourite at the moment but the one which has been used recently is the popular Moroccan Oil. The scent is amazing and it's like pouring liquid gold onto your hair. You need a very small amount.

When I've been settling down to bedtime I've been relying on the Badger Sleep Balm* to help me settle and relax. The mix of rosemary, bergamot, ginger, balsam fir and lavender help you relax and clear your mind ready for you to fall asleep naturally.


What wonders have you been enjoying this week/end?

  5. Oh I really want to try Alpha-H but can't really decide for what cleanser I should try. I have heard lots of great reviews of the balancing cleanser, but having combination/acneic skin I maybe should go with the triple action cleanser or clear skin facial wash... best thing is to try all three and see which one I like the best...

    Apropos cleansers and the Clarisonic, I haven't tested it with a lot of different cleansers yet, but for now I'm using it with Dermalogica's Clearing Skin Wash (it's a creamy foam cleanser for acneic skin) and it works great, and I don't think it would work any worse with their special cleansing gel.
