Clean & Clear Morning Burst In-Shower Facial Review

Gawd, you should see my shower. It’s kinda absurd at the moment with all the lotions and potions hanging out in there.

Speaking of product overload….last night I was in a deep sleep and around 3:30AM I hear this loud crazy crash. I thought someone was breaking into my house or something. I jerk out of bed and start looking around from room to room. Mind you I live in a large Victorian House so imagine me stumbling around from upstairs to downstairs and back again to figure out what the hell was going on. Turns out that the shelf I have in my bathroom which houses my rather large collection of shower gels broke. It was like a flood of bottles all over my bathroom…so here I am at near 4 in the morning on my hands and knees in the washroom, bleary eyed and completely unable to compute or comprehend what was going on, trying to clean up the mess!

Anyway….totally off topic there. I was just thinking about it as I typed up my review of the Clean & Clear Morning Burst In-Shower Facial I’ve been testing out this month!

Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser Review

Liz Earle Cleanse Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser 1

Hey guys have I told you how grumpy I am that the new Soap & Glory The Fab Pore Hot Cloth Cleanser is taking the slow boat from England to get to my Target.  Le sigh.   I imagine we’ll see this at the end of January beginning of February so I caved and had a faithful friend in England go get me some.  Lucky for me while I’m waiting for it to arrive I got the chance to try out the Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser.

L’Oreal Paris Studio Secrets Professional Anti-Dull Skin Primer Review

L’Oreal Paris Studio Secrets Professional Anti Dull Skin Primer 1

The Muse is still having a bit of a tantrum that the new L’Oreal Paris Studio Secrets Professional Collection that hit England earlier this year has yet to rear it’s head on this side of the pond. It looks like such an interesting array of products and it’s such a blooming shame it’s failed to come to the US as of yet.

No worries I’m kinda sorta keeping my fingers crossed that it’ll pop up come Spring. What are our chances?

In the mean time I’ll show you one item I was lucky enough to try out when a friend gifted me with it recently.

Check it!

Musings of the Day: Can’t Make Up!

musingsof

Hey guys!

I found a really fun post on MUA today and it got me thinking a little bit.  Someone started a poll which asked if anyone would want their own personal makeup artist.  That was kinda exciting to think about so I clicked open the post and decided to read.  Turns out there was a catch…..

The question is, would you want your own makeup artist?   Someone to do your makeup daily, make you look gorgeous and flawless each and everyday…but the catch would be you couldn’t do your own makeup EVER again.
