BEAUTY: My Travel Skincare

As I said at the beginning of the week I'm going away for a couple of days so I thought I'd share with you a few skincare bits that will be accompanying me on the trip. It might seem a little excessive but I also don't want to breakaway from my usual skincare that I use at home.

I've got my Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish just to take my makeup off in the evening and to wash my face in the morning. I love this product and even though I've tried similar products I always return to this one. I'm also taking my Liz Earle Gentle Face Exfoliator just because I want to use it up and it makes my skin feel incredibly soft after I've used it.

I'm taking my Simple Kind to Skin Cleansing Facial Wipes just in case I fancy being lazy one night to remove my make up. I'm taking my Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic with me, which I'm praying doesn't leak like it did the other day. I love this as it just instantly brightens up my skin. I've then got my Yes to Tomatoes Daily Moisturiser, I tend to use this night and day. It's quite a thick cream that I just apply all over my face and neck. I've been using it for a couple of months now and I'm really enjoying it. For eye cream I'm taking my Ren Vita Mineral Active 7 Eye Gel which is really cooling and keeps the are moisturised well. It's also helps for my concealer not to crease here. Finally I've got my favourite and only lip balm I tend to use, the Nuxe Reve De Miel.

For my body I've just got the Original Source Shower Gel in Vanilla and Raspberry with me, I obsessed with the fragrance of this stuff, even if I do smell a little bit like a yoghurt afterwards. I'm taking my Korres Bergamot Pear Body Milk which I've fallen in love with again. I've just picked up a random hand cream from my stash which is the Rituals Ginkgo's Secret Caring Hand Balm so I'll be testing that out whilst I'm away.

What do you pack to go away with?

BEAUTY: Nuxe Reve de Miel

I've been using the Nuxe Reve de Miel lip balm for about two years now and I'm still as in love with it as when I first picked it up. I bought it when I was first getting into skincare and beauty the second time around so when I was about 18/19 and I've been using it ever since not really using any other lip balm since.
I like the formula of the product, it is quite thick and heavy duty so I tend to pack a lot on to my lips at night to act almost like a mask. I wear a lot of matte lipsticks so my lips do get really dry throughout the day and I find this works really well in saving them a little. Whereas when I apply it throughout the day I only put a very small amount on. The product also acts like a gentle scrub I find. It is ever so slightly gritty so removes any dead cells. Whilst the product is quite thick, it feels very light on the lips which I love. It dries really quickly so if you're applying a lipstick on top you're not waiting around ages. It's very nourishing and feels really creamy on the lips too, you can feel the benefits on the lip balm straight away. I can't go to bed at night without applying this lip balm anymore or my lips just feel too dry and tight. If you're in the market for a new lip balm I highly recommend checking out the Nuxe Reve de Miel priced at £9.50 on Feel Unique its such a bargain and the product lasts ages. I've only had to buy two in the entire time that I've been using the product.
