Garnier Moisture Match Wake Me Up Gel - Review

Hey everyone, firstly I just wanted to say thank you so much for sticking by me through my blogging absence. I have been super-duper busy with work, I have been working a ridicules amount of hours this month – so I am always tired.

Before I get started on this product that I have been using for the last few weeks, I just wanted to say, follow me on twitter, @London_blogger1, I post random stuff on there.


Anyway, so today I am reviewing the Garnier Moisture Match, Wake Me Up "Revitalising Hydrating Gel".
This product has been out for a while, but for some odd reason, I never came across it until now. The Moisture match comes in a range of 5 different products, aimed for every type of skin type. I picked this one because it is for “dull skin”, and I really do feel like my skin needs a “pick me up”. The product looked perfect.
It comes in an oil free gel form for sensitive skin. The first time I wore this product, it did make my skin tingle, in a slight uncomfortable way. That’s never happened again with it, so I doubt that the gel actually caused that.

I have been using this product every day for the last three weeks and to be honest I haven’t actually noticed a difference in my skins appearance or texture. Saying that, I still like this product. It has a lovely smell to it and glides on to your skin. It’s very fast absorbing so there no waiting around before you can start applying your makeup. Maybe I didn’t pick the right one for my skin and that’s why I feel like it didn’t do anything for my skin?
I don’t know, either way, I don’t regret buying this product or it definitely won’t stop me from tying on another on in the range.

Pros: 
  • Absorbs into the skin fast so you don't have to wait around to apply your make up.
  • Oil free so doesn't leave your skin feeling greasy.
  • Smells really fresh and delicate.
  • Suitable for sensitive skin sufferers like me.
Cons: 
  • Really light formulation and texture so doesn't always feel like it's giving a deep hydration which may be a problem for people with dry skin.
  • A little pricey at £5.99 for a 50ml tube.
  • Didn’t do what it said on the tin.

Let me know what you think.

120 Eye ShadowPalette

Hi Guys,

I just wanted to show two looks I created using the 120 Palette I brought online, some time ago.

It’s a lovely palette and I don’t use it as much as I should. It has every colour you could ever possibly need. It has a range of Matt and Shimmer shades. Some of the colours are more pigmented then others, but that’s the same with every eye shadow.



So anyway, the first look I created, I used pinks, blue and purple.












The second look was a heavy black maroon smoky double wing look. you can't really see the double wing in this photo, but its there - I promise


Anyway, Let me know what you think...
