Nivea Men's Sensitive Post Shave Balm

Image
Packaging: White opaque heavy glass bottle with a wide rectangle screw cap. The opening is quite large but helps as the product is a thicker consistency. The bottle features a navy, white and green packaging giving it a masculine and hint of freshness. The bottle itself is more wide then thick and fits nicely in the palm of your hand. I did find the size to be a bit large and awkward to store on my vanity but no issues in my bathroom cupboard. Smell/Taste: Masculine cologne. Colour: White in high density but absorbs clear. Formula/ Texture: This is a thick gel lotion. It is lightweight and absorbs easily into the skin. Too much product will take a little longer to absorb too. There's no issues in application either. This has such a gentle formula contains Chamomile and Vitamin E, no alcohol and a neutral fragrance. It does moisturise and soothe the skin with a cooling effect. So overtime it'll reduce skin's sensitivity. Now I can't comme...

It's not sticky, greasy or extra drying. The formula has SPF 20 which will be good during the summer. It is for dry lips to help soothe and care.

I feel as though that it stays on longer than other deodorants and I can feel that it hasn't faded away or sweated off or anything like that. I am really addicted to the smell. It's not overpowering and compliments my perfume. Available: From Priceline, pharmacies and discount department stores for $5 for 150ml.

I wanted an eyecream to prevent premature aging and wrinkles and something that would lift and firm the skin of my eyes. I saw this when my previous eye cream had run out. Packaging: The eye cream comes in a purple squeeze tube with a fine tip. I like how this is hygienic because no bacteria can get inside and mix with the product it can only come out. Smell: None. Colour: White. Texture/Formula: Thickish cream that is easy to apply and absorbs quickly. The formula of the cream contains bioxilift and hyaluronic acid. The main aspect of the cream helps to tighten, firm and contour the eye area. I have noticed very much that my eye area was more firmed and lifted. I really like this cream for this. I noticed it also hydrated my eye area and reduced puffiness. Bioxilift is a 100% natural extract from  the Anise plant that helps support the tightening and firming of the skin leading to a defined eye area. Hyaluronic acid is a skin hydrating bioactive for ins...

Priceline Haul - February 2011

Just a few things that I wanted for so long and they were on sale!! Australis  Makeup Finishing Spritz I wanted this to set my makeup. To see if it does make a difference. $15 on sale for $11.46 Manicare Crystal Nail File Arghh Im so sick of those normal emery boards as they loose their harshness very quickly for me and then my nails don't get a good file after a few months. Anyway I thought a nail file like this one which never looses its grainy texture on the nails. $16 on sale for $13.16. Neutrogena Healthy Defense Moisturiser with SPF 30 I needed a new moisturiser and Neutrogena works well for me. I want to be anti-aging and future focused and I know that applying sunscreen daily not only helps prevent wrinkles but also helps lower the risk of sunburn and cancer. I feel that normal sunscreen is too thick, smelly and sticky for me and that this moisturiser would be a good way of combining the two so that it's one less step but it doesn't become...
