BEAUTY: Clinique Smart Night Moisturiser

I've recently been using the Clinique Smart Night Moisturiser just before I go to bed and I've been loving the product. I've been taking all my make up off and then applying this before I go to sleep and I've been enjoying how my skin looks and feels afterwards.

The product is quite thick and heavier than other moisturisers I've used from the brand however I tend to find that night creams are a lot thicker anyway. The product sinks into the skin really quickly and doesn't feel sticky or tacky on the skin at all. My skin also feels super soft after applying it. I've also found that with a combination of  using the Smart Night Moisturiser and the Moisture Surge in the day that any dry patches that I usually get are non-existent. My skin is also looking a lot brighter and glowing. One thing I don't like about the moisturiser is the smell. I do find it quite strong and a little like antiseptic cream but I can ignore that fact if its making a difference in my skin.

The product isn't the cheapest. Mine was in a Bonus Time Gift so I've just been testing it out, but at £48 I do think it's expensive. I'm going to keep testing it out over the next month or so and I'll get back to you on whether I would repurchase it. I do think it's been amazing but I'm not sure if I'd part with that much money for it yet.

Have you tested the Clinique Smart Night Moisturiser before? Let me know what you think?

BEAUTY: Korres Bergamot Pear Body Milk

I've been wanting to try some Korres products for a while now. I've heard a lot of beauty bloggers raving about the brand and so always wondered about it myself. In a recent My Little Box, I received a travel size sample of Korres Bergamot Pear Body Milk and I have to say that I love it and have since repurchased it in the full size (200ml) bottle.

I suffer a lot with sore and dry skin on my legs. I find that a lot of body moisturisers especially when they are fragrance only irritate the skin. However when I tried Korres Body Milk I found that it really helped soothe the skin especially after shaving my legs, they weren't quite so red as they usually are. After a couple of days use I really noticed a difference in the appearance of my skin. They looked smooth and soft and I wasn't in pain like I sometimes found I was before. It's also a really lovely product to use after you've just been in the bath, I find that it feels a little cooling on the skin too. 

I find that the body milk is a lot more moisturising than a normal lotion but sinks in quicker than I find body butters do. It feels really light on the skin too. I'd really recommend trying out the body milks by Korres, in particular the Bergamot Pear fragrance, I find its quite lightly scented and it hasn't irritated my skin so far, especially if you do suffer with irritated skin.
