Advantages: Gorgeous miracle worker Disadvantages: Bit expensive (but I am a student)
I bought this rather pricey product after reading about it in several magazines. as a student, my budget is somewhat restricted but thought I'd invest in this after doing a bit of research online and reading reviews like this one.
As a student, i often choose to burn the candle at both ends but this often conflicts with my job as a model. if i turned up to shoots looking pale, tired and spotty I wouldn't get any work at all.
So with this as my justification for spending £53 (30ml) I bought this wonderful product.
I wasn't disappointed. For a start the smell is heavenly, has that expensive aroma which sets it apart from cheaper 'wonder creams'. Basically the blurb in magazines and on the included leaflet is to apply to cleansed skin before bed after a heavy night, the idea being that even after only a few hours kip your face exudes ...
Advantages: Fairly pleasant scent; beautiful bottle; very good staying power Disadvantages: Doesn't smell as expensive as it is; rather heavy and old-fashioned

The bottle - even the miniature version I have - is really rather pretty, with a glass rose shape forming the lid, which sits on the rounded bottle at a jaunty angle.
I applied the perfume to my ...
Advantages: A little goes a long way, has improved my skins appearance Disadvantages: Probably a little pricey
Finally, oh finally, after years of trying this and trying that, i have found a face moisturiser that i love.
I was sent this product to trial for one month, to be used twice daily, morning and night.
I received a "medium-weight cream that maintains skins moisture balance while improving its texture. Deep-moisturizing Lecithin and Aloe Gel nourish while extracts of Mallow, Cucumber and Arnica soothe and hydrate the skin, helping to restore suppleness and tone. Antioxidant Grape Seep Extract plus vitamins A,C and E help sheidl skin from environmental assaults. Contains no artificial fragrance or colour"
You only need a small amount as a little goes a long way. On first opening and using i noticed it had a clinical smell. But to me it was not unpleasant and smelt quite expensive. I have very dry skin and this was perfect, not too ...
