Benefit B.right! Moisture Prep Toning Lotion

Today's post is one which i have been meaning to do for so long!This product is one of my regular products within my daily routines and i just can not get enough of it!


A while back Benefit changed their whole skincare line of products to the b.right! range and this is the first of which i purchased in full size (i did purchase smaller sized travel set of products).


Benefit's website says about this product-
‘This special step for extra radiant skin. The moisture prep toning lotion smoothes, revitalizes & tones to allow the skin to fully optimize the maximum benefits of any moisturizer. Skin is hydrated, creating a soft, supple surface ready to absorb moisture. Contains natural meadowsweet & oat, botanical extracts known to purify & smooth the skin, reducing fine lines. This specialized formula also includes a blend of aloe & yeast extracts, known to clarify and sooth the skin'


My thoughts:
Firstly i have to say one of the things i really love about this product and in fact the whole range is the beautiful packaging!It is so cute and girly and looks lovely on the dressing table!I an a bit of a geek and also kept the box it came in as it is gorgeous too!It's also really nice that all the Benefit skincare packaging matches as before the b.right! change each had their own individual style.


The other main point which i love about this product is the scent!It is so fresh and not at all overpowing!I personally think it smells of cucumber but have heard others say that it smells of melon!I personally have no problem with skincare products that have scents as long as they aren't too strong,which this product certainly is not,however i do realise that some people who suffer with sensitive skin may have this concern so i would say to try to head to a counter and check it out before you buy this product just to make sure you're okay with it.


It isn't a common occurance to agree wholely with a company's product statement but in this case i do completely!The product makes my skin feel soft and supple and really hydrated which is a massive bonus as i suffer with dry skin. It is also incredibly cooling which is so nice if you are feeling hot or if you need to freshen up your skin!
Benefit state that this product allows for better benfits of your moisturiser if you use it beforehand,which in my opinion is pretty hard to determine if it is entirely true,but as far as i am concerned as the product has so many other benefits it is worth a go to see if it also makes a difference to the results from my moisturiser improves.


To use this product i use a cotton wool pad which i pour a small amount of the product on and then dab into my skin as this is what the lovely benefit lady at the counter recommended i do.This makes the product incredibly quick and easy to use which is alway a thumbs up!


Overall i have had such brilliant results from using this product. It is a real staple of my routine and i can honestly say i use it everyday! I do think it has had particularly good results as i have dry skin which this product effectively works to sole,but i am unsure if you would necessarily see such good reaults if you have oily skin.
The one negative of this
product is the price which is £23.50! It is an investment product,however i would say that when i have used it you need a really small amount to do the job so it lasts for ages. If you suffer from dry skin like myself or you are looking a way to refresh your skin i would definitely recommend giving this a go!


Have you tried out this range?Does the price of some skincare products put you off?
As always let me know your thoughts!

Superdrug Hot Cloth Cleanser

Hi Girls!
This topic of product is one which gains a lot of blog post space in the blogging community and that is hot cloth cleansers! A number of well known blogs rave about such products and the results they achieved and the brand which receives the majority of these compliments is Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish. I personally have been wanting to try a hot cloth cleanser as i am  prone to dry skin and have heard that they are particularly good at balancing out this type of problem. However, after inquiring online about the Liz Earle cleanser it quickly came apparent that unless someone bought it as a gift there was no way i could afford to regularly buy this product as it retails for around the £12-13 mark. 
Shortly after this after reading online i stumbled upon the fact that superdrug do their own version of the product in their vitamin E skin care line. I checked their website (here) and saw the price was £5.99 i knew i had to have it! 
The product itself comes boxed and holds inside a single muslin cloth and a 200ml bottle of  the cleanser ( as can be seen below) 

The Products

The product itself is a thick,white cream which i apply to you face without any water (at least once a day- at night to take my makeup off, but often i do it in the morning aswell!). You then massage in circular motions all across your face for at least a minute. By this point the cream tends to go clear,and when i am wearing makeup i can actually see the makeup melting into it! After this, you take the muslin cloth and rinse it in hot (not boiling!) water and use this to wipe away all the cleanser!
Once i have done this i tend 

The cleanser straight out of the bottle

to cool my face down with some cold water and pat it dry!














I have been using this product for nearly three weeks now and i have personally had great results from it! my skin is a lot smoother,i'm finding i have fewer breakouts and my skin appears less dry! Now because i  have never tried the Liz Earle cleanser so i can not compare, would i like to try that product?- yes, but if like me you are on a budget and would like a more affordable version which can give good results then this superdrug version is definitely worth a go!
Have you tried a hot cloth cleanser before?If so,which one? Did you see any results?
