Trying Out My Beauty #5

I love rummaging through my beauty box and deciding what I am going to trial out over the coming weeks. It’s become a really enjoyable routine and helps me not forget about little gems worth using. This time, I found some really great beauty pieces that I know you will love too!

La Roche-Posay Anthelios Ultra-Light Sun Cream Fluid SPF 50+

I’m really into applying SPF on my face, especially in the summer months but also throughout the year. Sun damage is a concern of many of us and protecting our skin from harm and early ageing is such a great thing. I’ve been on the hunt for face SPF creams and thought I would give this sample a try. It has exceptionally high protection and boasts a lightweight formula. It claims to be non-greasy and water resistant, whilst containing high UVA/UVB protection. Sounds great to me!

Ren EverCalm Ultra Comforting Rescue Mask
I love Ren as a brand and really enjoy using their face moisturiser in my morning skincare routine.  I thought this face mask looked amazing as it is calming and soothing, whilst moisturising at the same time. I have dry and sensitive skin and I’ve learnt not to apply harsh products to my face. The mask claims to strengthen the protective moisture barrier and aid the recovery of skin stresses. I’ve already used this mask once and I am loving it so far. My only worry is that I may run out of this quite quickly as it is already becoming a staple in my facemask routine.

OPI Infinite Shine Gel Effect Nail Lacquer In Staying Neutral
I used to love painting my nails on my “pamper sessions” but lately I’ve been too busy to do that. I also play the violin and so chipping my nails is quite likely… However, I really want to get back into giving my nails the occasional coat of polish. I’ve had this gel effect polish in my collection for quite a while but never used it. I think the colour is absolutely gorgeous and can’t wait to give it a go. I’m intrigued to see if it will be stronger than normal polish as gel polish is the best.

White Glo Diamond Series Advanced Teeth Whitening System*
I received this teeth whitening kit from a blogger event. However, I’ve been too scared to use it since! I really want slightly whiter teeth so I thought I would finally give this a go. It contains a whitening gel and mouth tray, and a whitening toothpaste.  It is meant to remove years of staining safely without enamel abrasion. I’m excited to give this a go. The whole putting the tray in your mouth seems like a lot of effort but hopefully the results will be worth it!

Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturiser SPF 20
I have never tried Laura Mercier products but when I was looking for a new tinted moisturiser I couldn’t resist buying this. It’s had so much hype in the beauty blogging world and it looks a dream to use. The soft hint of colour with a lightweight feel to the face is exactly what I’m looking for during these summer months. I also love the fact it has SPF 20 in it, to give me extra protection on my face.

Clinique Buffing Foundation Brush

I treated myself to this foundation brush for my birthday. My current brush is on its last legs and I have never really loved it so I was so excited to pick this up. So many people have raved about this brush online! It is supposed to create a smooth finish and I love the look of the actual brush. I adore Clinique as a brand and hopefully I will love this brush too.
