Review: B.Enriched Restorative Facial Oil



Today I want to share with you a product I really cannot get enough of at the moment. Around mid-May time my skin was looking really dull and a bit lack lustre, and when I was applying make-up it just wasn't sitting well. I had a little sort out of products in my cupboards (I feel so guilty having to use the plural) and found this oil I purchased way back at the start of the year.

Now when I first got this product I thought it was breaking me out, so put it away and decided it wasn't for me. Turns out, it doesn't break me out, and it's actually quite lovely. I don't use this product on it's own, instead I get to feel like a scientist and add a few drops of it to different serums and moisturisers. It's actually rather fun, as well as being beneficial to my skin. Win Win!

I've found that by adding a few drops (or more depending on how my skin feels) to either my Origins Overnight Mask or moisturiser of choice I'm wearing that my skin is left looking really luminous and glowing and my hydration levels are back up too. I won't use this if I'm wearing make-up but I have noticed make-up is applying much more easily now.

So for me, this product has turned out to me just what my skin needs.

Have you tried this? What do you think?

FOTD: Let It Glow

Another Frozen reference, I know. Sorry for not being sorry; it just fit so well. For someone who was always scared she looked really shiny and believed a face full of powder was the best way to hide everything and keep things hidden all day, over the last year I've defintiely gravitated toward a glowly look.

To get the base off to the right start I began with the Bourjois Happy Light primer to get my skin all ready for my base which here is the Bourjois CC Cream as I wanted to give it a test, but to be honest, though it's more expensive I much prefer the Dior BB Cream, it lasts better throughout the day and adds an extra glow.

Before powdering with my Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder, which is the peferfect powder to set make-up but leave you with a glow, I worked in my Jemma Kid Dewy Glow All Over Radiance Cream which is sadly discountined but I say pick up Topshops Glow Cream Highlighter for the same effect. Once that is worked in with the base I like to apply my cream blush, which just so happened to be my Nars Multiple in Portofino.

Eyes and lips I kept quite simple. Eyes was a MAC staple Naked Lunch which deposits a slight colour with a nice shimmer to boot and lips was a your lips but nicer/better colour from No7 BB Lips in Coral Rush.


What are your glowy skin staples?
