Water Wipes- the natural way to cleanse....

Morning ladies,

There's nothing worst then removing make-up at night with a make-up remover wipe and your skin just feels tight, irritated, dry and stings like crazy! 

But we still need a quick and easy way to remover our make-up! Right? 

You'll be delighted to know there is a solution! 

Has anyone tried the new 'Water wipes'?  

Firstly they are 100% fragrance-free, alcohol-free & paraben-free! Secondly they have been allergy tested and proven! 

They are non-drying, non-irritating and yet soft and gentle to use on a daily basis! 

'Water wipes' are made from 99.9% ultra purified water, 0.1% citrus grapefruit seed extract and dead sea minerals...nothing else!

And they are suitable for sensitive skin! 

Sounds too good to be true...

Well I have used them a couple of times and  my skin felt fresh instantly! They removed all of my make-up - even my liner and mascara! 

They are definitely a must have for me!  

They are available in selected pharmacies and I paid €2 for one pack of 24 wipes. 

Let me know if you try them!

Urban Decay's...Naked Skin Beauty Balm

So ladies, today I purchased Urban Decay's Naked Skin Beauty Balm and........ it's AMAZING!!

So what does it do...

As a BB cream (Beauty Balm) it hydrates, primes, protects, perfects and treats! And the bonus about Urban Decay's BB is that it delivers anti ageing benefits and has an SPF20!

Plus it diffuses light with high-tech pigments to give natural beautiful glowing skin!

Use it on its own for gorgeous skin or under foundation!

Honestly ladies I have been super excited to try this product out! And result...... after cleansing my skin, I applied a small amount to my face and blended it with my fingers. It just glided onto my skin so smoothly and evenly and gave me this amazing  look......Lush! And since I was heading for a walk I decided to just wear the BB cream on it's own- after all I felt fresh and my skin was glowing!

Where is it available...

Urban Decay is stocked in House of Fraser, Dundrum and most Debenhams stores. And at Debenhams right now they have 10% off all Urban Decay until Sunday- tempted?!!

I purchased the travel size 15 ml version today in Debs on Henry Street, which I grabbed at a bargain price of only €10.80- it's usually €12! And it's a universal shade that works on most skin tones!

Hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

The AMAZING benefits of Coconut Oil....

Wowzers....has anyone else realised that Coconut oil is popping up everywhere lately???

I am a sucker for trying any product that highlights advantages like 'repair' or 'condition'.... So yes I purchased a tub.....and....results so far............AMAZING!

I now use it daily on my skin as a night moisturiser and my skin is glowing...it's softer and well moisturised! What I will say..... is that as an oil-  it has a greasy feel off it, so I personally only use it at night.

The version I purchased is an emollient to nourish, repair and condition the skin, scalp and hair. There are many versions and a lot of them are used as a cooking oil.

(After cleansing my skin and applying Coconut Oil as below)

(Ovelle is an emollient moisturiser which nourishes, repairs & conditions the skin, scalp & hair.
It costs €5.85 for 100g from Cara Pharmacy)

So what are the benefit's?........
