Review: Avon's Clearskin Pore Penetrating Black Mineral Mask

Hey

I did an Avon Haul a while back and one of the products I brought was a clay face mask and I have tried and tested it and am ready to give you my review.

I've heard a great deal about clay face mask and how good they are to use and I wanted to see for myself and I picked up the Clearskin Pore Penetrating Black Mineral Mask from Avon. According to the packaging the product contains an oil-absorbing blend of mineral clays that attracts and effectively removes pore-clogging oils. It also contains Salicylic Acid. 

I aim to use this mask twice a week which doesn't happen often because I'm lazy but when I do my face does feel less clogged and is ideal to use when you are having a breakout. 

Most people apply the mask all over their face but personally I just apply it to certain places, mainly my nose where my pores are visible, my chin where I tend to break out most and my cheeks. The part I like most it is, as it drys it clings to your pores so you can see where they are and you know the mask is going to pull them out. I have also noticed how smooth and soft my skin feels after using this mask.

Because it is clay the mask is black in colour and once it has dried and ready to be removed it turns a light grey colour. Just a warning this product will stain any cloth you use. Me not knowing that, decided to use a white flannel......yeah it's no longer white..whoops! So now I just a wet cotton pad to remove it as it's less harsh on the skin and means I can throw it away. There is a noticeable smell to it so beware of that when buying it because it's not the nicest of smells.

If you are interested in this product you can pick one up HERE. You get 75ml for £5.00

Review: Avon Advance Techniques Moroccan Oil

Hey

Quite a while back I decided my hair needed some sort of oil in its life, so while flipping through the latest Avon book I stumbled across the Advance Techniques 360 Nourishment Moroccan Argan Oil. I have heard a few Youtubers mention Argan oil and figured I had nothing to lose by giving it ago.

I've been testing it out for roughly 4 months and I can see the change it has made to my hair. It claims give instant shine and a smooth finish. I can totally agree, I love the way my hair feels now, it looks and feels healthy. It is weightless and leaves no residue. Which again is true, it doesn't leave your hair feeling heavy or greasy after using this product. It also has Vitamin E in it. 

You can use this on wet or dry hair. Personally I use it on wet hair, I pump some of the product onto my hands, rub them together and focus most of the product on the ends of my hair, anything left over I just finger comb through the rest of my hair. You get 30ml for £5.50 but the product is currently on offer for £3.30. Something you can't afford to miss when the product truly works. 

Till next time

Avon Haul

Hey

So recently I spent a small fortune on some products from Avon & thought I would share with you what I got. Shall we take a look?

First up I wanted a clay mask as I heard somewhere that clay masks were supposed to be really good so I figured I would jump on board and give it a go

It's by the brand Clear skin and the product contains an oil-absorbing blend of mineral clays that attracts and effectively removes pore-clogging oils. It also contains Salicylic Acid. Seeing as how it is clay it is black in colour and once applied to your face & it starts drying it changes to a light grey colour it's time to wash it off. You get 75ml for £3.50.

Next up is a lip balm, if you've seen my Dove & Baby lips reviews then you will know I suffer from dry & chapped lips. And as I was running out of my Baby lips balm I wanted to try something new.

It's by the brand Avon Care. I haven't seen anything like this balm before as it's Royal Jelly.  It's intensive moisture with SPF15 with royal jelly. it's pretty small in size, you get 15ml for £2.20

Third up is a body mist. I like smelling nice and buying perfumes can be expensive so I turn to body mists to give me a scent.

There's three mist in the Secret Fantasy collection and I ended up buying two of them. The Secret Fantasy original which is the first picture I own in the perfume and as it smells so good I wanted the mist as well. The second picture is in the Kiss scent & they both smell amazing. They both cost £1.99 each for 100ml

Next is a moisturiser. I felt my skin was getting used to my current one and wanted to switch it up and try something new.

Can we start off by discussing how amazing this smells. I wish I could bathe in this stuff. If I could I would. I suffer from dry skin so I got it in normal to dry skin. It's a Nourishing Face Cream with soybean and vitamin 6. They also have two others, but unfortunately I can't remember what they are. You get 100ml for £3.50 I think.

Next is another face mask as I heard Fleur De Force on YouTube talking about how Ginseng is also good for your skin so figured I'd give it a go.

It's by the brand Planet Spa and the product is a Chinese ginseng revitalising face mask, it's a clear mask that you peel off after 20 minutes. You get 75ml for £1.50 I think. I'm not too sure on the price as I no longer have the book or receipt but it wasn't expensive.

Last but by no means least is another body mist. 

It's from the naturals collection in the scent Strawberry and Hibiscus and this one also smells freakin amazing. You get 100ml for £1.50

----------------------------------------

That's it for this haul. I hope you enjoyed seeing what I got. I will be doing full reviews on some of the products so be sure to keep your eyes peeled for them.

Till next time

Plum Illusions Nail Polish

Hey

Over the weekend I finally got round to painting my nails as I hadn't done it since the end of December and I wanted to share with you the colour I used.

It is a really deep purple colour, it goes on really smoothly and all you need is two coats for it to be opaque. When layered over another colour you are supposed to get a mosaic effect but I've never used it for that so I'm not sure how well that works. But it can still be used as a normal polish which is what I want. Adding a clear top coat turns turns it shiny and noticeable. These are my own nails I'm not wearing any acrylics or gel.

If you are in the UK then you have probably heard of Avon before, it is a monthly catalogue that sells make-up, clothes, jewelry and all other beauty items you could possibly need that are then delivered to your door and it's not expensive. If you wish to have a copy of the latest catalogue then click HERE. I did buy this a while ago so not to sure on the price but most of the polishes are £3.00 and they always have offers on so you may be able to grab yourself a bargain.

Would I recommend?: Yes both the nail polish and the company

What do you think of this colour? Have you brought anything from Avon before?

Till next time
