Rimmel Apocalips in 304 Eclipse Review and Swatches

Before I started this post, I spent ages trying to figure out what’s wrong with the pictures because in the overview images the colour of this Rimmel Eclipse lip lacquer is sort of pinkish purple, but the swatch shows a red shade? I blame the bad lighting because it was very cloudy when I took the outdoor ones. And by the way, it’s not my Celestial one either because that one has chipped letters. So I’m equally confused as you are. In case you missed it, read my review on Rimmel Apocalips in 101 Celestial  Rimmel Apocalips in 304 Eclipse Rimmel…

Jacava London 8-Free Nail Polish in Passion Review

Jacava London is a small UK brand specialising in nail polishes. No, I haven’t heard of them either until they contacted me saying that my blog is “beautiful“. The unique selling point of Jacava is their 8-free formula, not 3 nor 5, but 8, which is highly aimed at those beauty addicts who prefers chemical free and cruelty free products. To be honest, I hardly ever cared about what chemicals I’m wearing on my nails until this review.  Jacava nail polishes are free from:  Formaldehyde: can cause nasal cancer Camphor: neonatal death (death of a newborn child) Parabens: can cause skin sensitization…

Skinetica Anti-Blemish Toner Review: Before & After

I came across Skinetica a few weeks ago after hearing a lot of talk about this magical spot treatment product on my twitter feed. Everyone who’s tried it recommended it, so I thought I’d give it a go too and write an honest review about Skinetica Anti-Blemish Lotion.

I suffered from a face full of acne for many years, but they have pretty much disappeared in the past few months due to a good skincare routine. But I still get the occasional few, especially before an important event, which every…
