Garnier Skin Active Nourishing Gel Wash w/ Honey Flower - Review

-
Hello beautiful people!

 As you may know, I am on the constant research for the perfect face wash.

 Yes, I tried a few in the past that I was very happy with, but I have to admit that after a while I get bored of using the same product every day and also my skin kind of stop to respond to their benefits as well, so I like to alternate and try some new product.

 So, here I am finding myself buying new face washes every now and then and I have to admit that Garnier is one of my favourite brands.

 Since they released the Skin Active range I've been very curious and tried already a few of this range.

 This time I want to share my experience with the Nourishing Botanical Gel Wash with Honey Flower.

 This product is designed for 'dry to very dry skin', comes in a 200ml and costs around £3,50 (but it's easy to find these on offer 😏).

 What I love about the packaging is that this dispenser is clear so you can see perfectly the product inside (and know when is about to finish).

 The information on the front are not many, but the back displays all you need to know about it, from ingredients, to directions.

 I admit I am really grateful to Garnier for being one of the few companies that explains clearly what the ingredients contained are (see photo).
Yes, most products have the ingredient lists, but to be honest I don't know the meaning of all those latin words, so what the company did here is pretty clever and customer friendly (well done Garnier).


 To be noted is that 96% of the ingredients contained in this Skin Active product are of natural origin and the remain 4% are ingredients used for the preservation of this gel wash.

 So let's talk now about the performance of this gel wash and let me start with its smell and consistency.

 This product surprised me with this really sweet scent and a great gel texture that I personally love. 
I love to use this gel wash as you only need to pump once to have enough product for a great experience.

 It forms enough foam, not excessive, and is gentle to the skin.

 To my surprise I realised that this gel wash didn't only clean my face skin and give it a fresh feeling but is also great in removing make up, including mascara if you work on it a bit more!

 Only downside I experienced on myself is that it left my face skin feeling slightly tight and that's why I recommend you use a moisturiser straight after using this product.

 This was really a sad ending as I was really expecting a greater after


use effect since this product is designed for dry to very dry skin, but again, this might be something that doesn't apply to everyone since every single person is different in skin and reaction to products.

 This being said, I admit that it's hard for me to give an overall score, but I have to.

 What about you? ave you tried this product yourself? How did you find it? 
Please let me know your experience and I'm open to suggestion if you have any 😉

 Garnier Skin Active Nourishing Gel Wash w/ Honey Flower overall rate: 
3.5/5

Bright Copper Colour Refresh - Maria Nila Review

H ave you ever thought that a change in your hair life is needed but, like me, you came to appreciate your hair and are now afraid of a drastic change? Well, this was me.. and I think it still is me. I really appreciate my hair, specially now that it's glowing and long and all that (one of the positive things of pregnancy!). But still, there were times that I felt like I needed an extra kick and that's why I decided to try something new to me. So, after some research on what kind of colour I could use (I wouldn't have used just any, as I'm pregnant), I found out about this Colour Refresh by Maria Nila . Yes, it's designed for coloured hair, to enhance and brighten up the colour your hair is suppose to have after you've already dyed your hair, but I thought that it could be nice to still give it a go. This product comes in a 300ml small bottle (the design is very modern), and it has all the instruction you need to follow on it, along with all the in...

Superdrug Calm Skin Serum & Moisturiser Review

H ello everyone! I'm back with a review after a while. I've been to Italy for 3 weeks to enjoy time with my family since I'm on maternity leave 💖 Now we all know that taking care of our skin in summer is a bit of a hustle. Late nights, sea water, the heat, the sun, not feeling like taking off our make-up several times and other factors all contributed to making my skin show some irritation and break outs in a few areas of my face. And of course having sensitive skin doesn't help at all! I will talk probably on another post about the stress of carrying only selected liquid items on a plane - meaning my skincare was poor for 3 weeks and often I used products that my mum or my sisters bought for themselves (meaning they were not necessarily suitable for sensitive skin). But today I want to focus on my life-saver! A couple of weeks before flying to Italy I popped into Superdrug as per my usual morning walk routine knowing I had to find something suitable f...

Phil Smith - Coco Licious Coconut Dry Shampoo - Review

H ello there! Now isn't summer the best season? Well, sometimes my hair doesn't agree with me on this and often I feel I don't know what to do to make it look fresh and healthy. So I decided to buy this Phil Smith Coco Licious Coconut dry shampoo and here I want to share with you my thoughts. I found this product in Sainsbury's supermarket for a reasonable price (£ 2,50 for a 150ml bottle) and it's suitable for all hair types. The packaging looks very fresh and appealing, with this white and golden colours and I admit that's one of the reasons I chose this one instead of other brands/products. I've never tried a dry shampoo before this one, so I was quite doubtful that the product would work at first, so I followed the instructions written on the back of the bottle to make sure I could get a promising result. Directions for use are very straight forward: - shake well the bottle before use - spray at 20cm distance - massage with fingertips ...
