Soft Cleansing | Gentle Cleansing Powder 



Hey everyone!

Day 3 already! If you want to catch up then click here for links.

So far I have introduced the brand and talked about Stress Balance Anti Irritation Serum.
Today I want to talk about a product I have not yet tried but definitely one for the shopping list.

I hadn't come across cleansing powders before now but I love the idea of them.  I rarely use cleansers as about a year ago I bought my Nima Mitt (Check out the review :P) and don't see the need to use one unless I need to remove heavy eye make up.

Declaré's cleansing powder is very popular with Irish clients and retails at €24.50 for 90g however a little goes a long way. There is no soap in this product and it has a neutral ph so it wont mess about with your skin's levels. Also suitable for all skin types.

Elke demonstrated to us to mix a small amount of powder with warm water to produce a foam. Massage the foam to desired areas of face and then rinse with warm water,

Another way to use this powder is to massage into skin using a powder brush for that extra special pampering session and then remove with warm water! How luxurious does that sound?


Once I get around to purchasing the powder I will do a full review and let you know how I get on. Have you tried any powder cleansers before? What are your thoughts on c;leansers in general?

See you tomorrow for Day 4 of the series!

Stress Balance | Anti Irritation Serum

Hey everyone


Welcome back to Day 2 of my week long Declaré series. If you missed yesterday post click here to catch up,
Today will be a little about the Stress Balance range and my favourite product from that line.


When Elka tested my skin she was able to see dryness in areas on my face and décolletage.
Dryness and redness are commonly found when your body is stressed or when your skin encounters the likes of pollution, weather changes, air conditioning or central heating..
We all know I have had enough stress to age me by 20 years with Stephen's illness so I was not surprised to hear Elka talk about this.

It was recommended I start using an Anti Irritation Serum. Elka called this a firefighter for redness! :D

This serum helps reduce the visible signs of redness and fatigue quickly. Behind the scenes it stabilises skin's protection barrier by refilling lost water way beneath the skin. It is also suitable for all skin types.
Key properties include Declaré's award wining SRC complex, Hyaluronic acid and plant extracts.

The serum comes in a beautiful 50 ml glass bottle with a clever twist able lid and retails at E59.50 . A dropper dispenses the serum onto the hand. You use this after cleansing and before moisturising morning and evening. Another good thing is you can bring it on the plane if travelling....!! Yay for me as I have been back and forward to Scotland alot recently!

There is a lovely scent from the serum as with all the products in the range. I got a hint of like sweet perfume but rest assured if there was anything to irritate the skin I would know by now..
It glides onto your skin and it soaks right in. I like how it is not oily and doesn't leave any residue on skin.

I have been using the serum for the last few days and I have actually noticed a small difference with the redness and my skin sure feels plumper, hydrated and smooth so I'm happy with that for now!
I would definitely recommend this serum and I will be repurchasing.



Come back tomorrow for the next instalment in the Declaré series,

Nima Mitt Review

beauty
Hey everyone!


I am so lazy when it comes to removing my make up. I hate using wipes and I know the chemicals in the wipes are so bad for my skin but I just don't have the time for a huge routine.
I was excited when I heard about the mitt and forgot to pick one up when I bought my Nima brushes so the gift was perfect timing!
What made it even more special was the fact the creator of said mitt gave us a tutorial to prove the benefits of using the mitt. So to say I was in my element is an understatement!

This mitt is made of tiny little microfibres that along with wait for it TAP WATER (wam ish for best results) removes all traces of make up, grime and all types of eye make up even water proof mascara. I kid you not! I raced home just to use the mitt and I have used it every day since.

So there isn't much science to it. You wet the mitt. Wipe your face clean and use a bar of soap to wash after every use to keep it fresh and anti bacterial. I tried to use liquid soap to wash and it really doesn't work as well FYI. Leave out to dry and use again and again. Don't put it near a washing machine.

I am seriously loving this mitt. I promise you wont be let down. I have bought one for all the ladies in my life. I will be hanging up my cleanser and toner for a while now!

€12.95 is a small price to pay for easy, quick and safe make up remover!!

Have you tried a mitt? what do you think?
