Benefit One One.

I bought this as a little present to myself, as I was feeling a bit low and decided that a bit of retail therapy would do the trick.
Debenhams just seems to call my name every time I go to town and end up on Briggate, and lucky for me, the Benefit counter is right in front of you as you walk in.

I got this as I don't really have many lip products and this just looked too fancy to put down.
It also doubles up as a cheek stain, so you'd be silly not to get it really ;)
The packaging of the product itself is so cute.
The product is so tiny, I could easily pop it into my clutch bag to freshen my face on a night out on the town.




It applies as a really coral/baby pink colour.
Would definitely brighten up your face on a cold winters day.
The only thing I don't like about this product, is that it leaves my lips feeling quite dry after I've used it, but I suppose that's nothing a quick coat of lipgloss won't sort out.

Have you tried Fine One One?
What's your opinion on it?

L'OREAL Micellar Solution.

I don't know about you guys, but i find it so hard to find makeup remover that doesn't irritate my skin. So whilst i was taking my off my make-up before bed one night, i decided that the next time i went to tescos, i was going to try the new L'OREAL Micellar Solution as everyone has been raving on about it at work.
Not only is it a Make-up remover, but a toner and skin soother all in one.


I didn't want to spend too much, as i'm trying to save for a holiday, so when i saw this little beauty for £3.99 i snapped it right up.
Even though it costs so little, the design makes it look a little bit more pricier.
Simple, yet effective eh!

"Swiftly dissolving all traces of make-up, the 'micellar' solution acts like a purifying magnet on the skin's surface to capture and draw out excess oil and impurities rather than spreading them around your face like wipes can. So gentle, skin feels soothed and toned. No alcohol, no perfume. Hypo-allergenic"

I wear quite a lot of foundation as i have really rosy cheeks, which i hate, so it's safe to say that my skin was in need of a good deep clean.
It really does leave my skin feeling smooth and soft. 
I've also noticed aswell, that since i've been using this, i've come out in quite a lot of spots, which i'm hoping is another sign that it's working!
All in all, i will definitely be purchasing this again.

Have you tried L'OREAL micellar solution, What do you think?
