Johnson's Holiday skin body lotion review

I know this is a bit too late but i wanted to give you my view on it. Right this product is meant to tan your legs or any part of the body day by day. it is a slow tanner that works everyday. It is meant to be streak free and tan will develop after 3-4 days.

My view on this product is not good. This product is rubbish. It smells horrible and it made me look orange after 3 days after a applied it everyday. The orange look is not a good look. It makes streaks on my legs, it says it doesnt but it does and i couldnt get rid of it, so i had streaky orange looking legs whcih wasnt nice because i had a party quite soon after that.
This was my quick review on this product and dont be fooled in what it says on the package because it is not true. Thanks for reading this post, bye

Benefit Pencils

Hiya everyone. A little while ago, glamour mag was offering free benefit pencils with their mags. There was three types. There was Eye Bright, It Stick and Bad Gal. There was one pencil with every mag. So i got two of them. I got Eye Bright and It Stick. I wasnt keen on the Bad Gal because i am not a eyeliner person and i dont wear eyeliner much. The mag cost 2 pounds each. I looked through the magazine and i didnt like it because on every page there was a advert. Basically there was a lot of adverts and very little writing, so i didnt like the mag. This post is a little review on both of the pencils. I know it is late but i didnt make a blog that long ago. So here we go....

 The Eye Bright is the best pencil i think. The pencil is too brighten the eyes to make the eyes look more wake and more refresh. The pencil is a light pale pink colour and it is a nice colour for the eyes to make them wake. I would put this in the inner corner of the eye and i might use this as a highlighter under my brows. Also i would use this under my eyes to make my skin look brighter and look more healthy. The texture of the pencil is very creamy and it glides onto the skin easily.Also it is very blendable. Its not cakey, its just looks nice of tired skin. So i would recommend this for anyone because it is a nice pencil to have in your make-up kit.

The It Stick is a concealer. The concealer is too conceal spots etc. There was only one colour it came in. The colour was a light colour. This will not be good for people with darker skin tones but it is good for me because i have a light colour skintone and it suits me very well. The concealer is a basic tool for the make-up kit. The texture is the same as the Eye Bright. It is very creamy and easily blendable, so you dont need to rub away to blend in with the skin. This is also i good pencil to have.

 I never had anything from benefit, so this was very good for me. Benefit products are expensive for me because i like to save my money and i rather buy benefit products when i get a proper job. The pencils come in a little box with the name on it. I thought it was nice to have it in a box. So this is my sort of review on the benefit pencils i got in the glamour mag. Thanks for reading this post, any suggestions on what i can do, please leave a comment on this post or any posts i have done. Thanks

Review - Simple Skincare

Hi everyone, this next post is a review on the simple skincare products i recently got and is in my previous skincare haul. I will be reviewing the kind to skin smoothing facial scrub, kind to skin replenishing rich moisturiser and kind to skin moisturising facial wash. Lets gets started...

The first product i will be reviewing is the kind to skin smoothing facial scrub. Bascially this product is a facial scrub and is meant to remove dead skin cells which is good to get good skin. I have used this a couple of times.It comes in a plastic bottle and it squirts out. When i opened it, i could not smell the product because their was no scent to it and that is the way it is meant to be. I like having a bit of a smell in products like this for some reason, so i was ok with having no scent to it. When i squeezed a bit on my palm, i rubbed it around in my palm and there is def little scrub balls in there. There was a lot of scrub balls which is a good thing because at least you know that there is little scrub balls in there and will remove dead skin cells. When i put it on my face, i could not spread it around because it would not let me. So you have to work quiet hard to move it around but it does work. It didnt leave my skin feeling dry and tight, it felt really nice afterwards. So thats a good product to have.



The next product is the kind to skin moisturising facial wash. This is a basic wash for the face. It is meant to clean the skin. This product also comes in a plastic bottle and it squirts out. When i first open this product, there was a slight smell to the product which is nice because the smell is not overpowering. It is just a nice smell to have. When i put it in my palm, the colour was clear like a gel but it wasnt a gel. I am used to white coloured face washs, so it was a bit strange. When i put it on my face, it was a bit difficult again but soon it got easier and it lathers on the face alright. So this is another good product from simple.

The last product is the kind to skin replenishing rich moisturiser. This is basically a moisturiser but richer than normal ones because they did have normal moisturisers but i wanted this one because my skin can become dry in some places. The product comes in a box with the name on it. Then i took it out of the box, it comes in a plastic bottles like the others. To get product out of the bottle, you have to squeeze it hard to get it out. When it comes out, the colour is white and is sort of a liquid. when put it on the face, it is easy to apply and is very blendable. It feels really nice on the skin, doesnt make it too heavy, its quite light which is nice. Also after 10 mins or so, it sinks in and you can feel it and is completey dry, so that good when you want to apply make-up or want to go to sleep.  
Overall these three simple skincare products are good, some of them have bad points but can easily get around them. These are good skincare products and i would recommend them to anyone and they are super cheap. Also it is sold around the uk, i dont know about other parts of the world. Thanks for reading this post, any suggestions on what i can review, please leave a comment to any of my posts i have done, Thanks
