“that square is probably about three
pound i’m not even joking
super cute
[Music]
hello and thank you for clicking on this
video in this video i’m going to be
having a little bit of a pamper and i’m
going to be using a lot of the
skincare products that i received in the
glossybox advent calendar
i’ve been testing them out and today i’m
going to show you how i pamper myself
and give you a little bit of feedback on
the products as i promised in that video
as you can probably hear in my voice i’m
a little bit under the weather i’m not
feeling too great
so this is a perfect opportunity for me
to try out these products and show you
what i do when i feel like i need a
little bit of tlc fortunately i’ve also
had a little bit of a skin breakout
from wearing masks and makeup which is a
little bit frustrating i always try and
keep on top of my skincare
and keeping really clean skin but having
makeup and then having a mask sort of
over my face
for long periods of time just means that
my skin isn’t dealing with it very well
so a pamper routine and little skincare
top up is
also very much needed at this moment in
time so today is also
hair wash day i wash my hair twice a
week i do have a dedicated hair care
routine video
which i will link down below but i’m
going to be doing that also i’m just
going to have a bath
have a little bit of a relax do my hair
and then come back and we’re going to go
through the skincare products
and i’m going to give you like i said a
little bit of a review so
without further ado let’s get into the
video
[Music]
want to keep it nice and clean not freak
out and cause a scene
i try to hold it together keep it
together
not sure who i really am just be
cute and super bland i try to hold it
together
keep it together been playing
it down but i’m so getting tired
and i’ve just sprayed on my hair the
iq101 spray
so this isn’t from the glossybox
calendar but this is part of my haircare
routine
as i mentioned earlier i do have a
dedicated video so left a link of that
video
down in the description box i’ve also
just brushing my hair with a wet brush
so these are a lot more gentle on your
hair they’re made to brush hair when wet
it’s not going to be as harsh on your
hair and i find that these are actually
more effective than
sort of normal hair brushes anyway so
now for the fun bit we can move on to
the skincare first of all i’m going to
put on
my really cute skincare headband from
the vintage cosmetic company
so this i did receive in the glossybox
advent calendar
and i’m just going to use this to keep
the hair off my face
whilst i i’m doing my skincare basically
super cute okay so now that’s on we can
get on with the skincare so to start
with i’m going to do a face mask and i’m
going to use the body shop himalayan
charcoal mask
that came in the calendar so this one is
designed to remove impurities to unclog
your pores
and just all of the stuff that i feel
like i need right now so to apply this
mask i’m going to use my
face mask brush that i got off amazon
and this is amazing it means that i
don’t need to get my hands full of
charcoal face mask
which is amazing so i’m just going to
focus this on to
the t-zone area that’s the bit where i
feel like i need the most help with a
mask like this a tiny bit
onto the center of my forehead but
avoiding my eyebrows
so i’m going to leave that to sit on
there and work its magic for around 10
to 15 minutes
and then i’m going to rinse it all off
and we’re going to carry on with some
more skincare products so just rinsed
all that off and
my skin feels so soft just
really really clear and all of my pores
feel really smooth
can’t feel any texture on my skin so
that’s definitely gets a thumbs up from
me next i’m going to be trying
the glossybox three-in-one moisturizer
i’ve already been trying this
for the last maybe a week i think it is
now
and i really like this it leaves your
skin feeling
really really moisturized really
hydrated
really fresh and i’m really impressed
that it’s actually the first thing that
i’ve tried from the glossybox skincare
range i really enjoy it i like it it
makes my skin
feel like nourished and glowy and
that’s really important to get that from
a moisturizer i’ve just popped out on my
skin
and massaged it in a little bit so the
next one is a product
that shocked me in that video and that
is the
advanced hyaluronic collagen aqua eye
gel
this is a three one hyaluron filler
collagen eye formula
and this is 99 pounds so this is a very
expensive product
and i’ve been using this for the last
week
there was a couple of days where i
didn’t use it because i completely
forgot that i was trying it and use my
serravi one that i use usually eye
creams i find are so difficult to
know whether they’re effective whether
they’re working and whether they’re
worth it
from just trying it for a little bit the
serra review one at first i remember
someone asking me do you like it and
feeling like i couldn’t really give them
an answer because it’s one of those
things that you don’t see dramatic
results in a short period of time and
this one i feel like
my under eye hasn’t been dry makeup’s
been sitting on it really really well
since i started using this
so it’s definitely not dried my under
eye out and i’ve not had any reactions
to it
i did have the super facialist
hyaluronic eye cream and that
really irritated my eyes they would
sting and water every time i used it
this i’ve had no problems with so
literally just squirt a little bit onto
my ring finger
and just about that amount and then
share it between both my eyes
that square is probably about three
pound i’m not even joking
it’s it’s very expensive it makes me
nervous when i have it on my fingers but
i will have to update you on this i
think further in the future because i do
think that eye creams do take a while to
sort of actually work i don’t want to go
recommending a 9 to 9 pound eye cream
if i don’t believe that it works so i’m
just going to pop that on my under eye
and then i just rub that really really
gently on the under eye area
and then just outside of my eyes and i
tap the excess onto
my eyelids so yeah like i said this does
feel really hydrating
makeup’s been sitting on my eyes really
well i haven’t noticed a dramatic
increase in like
the appearance of fine lines and
wrinkles as of yet but like i said it’s
only been a week and
i don’t really feel like with any eye
cream you wake up next day and go my
eyes are like a
baby’s eyes again i don’t feel like that
happens with anything so now we’ve
applied those products i of course need
to
follow up with a face mist in the
glossybox calendar i received the pixi
glow mist
and i have been loving this it’s such a
good face mist
i have been using this every night and
every morning just to give my skin
a little bit of a spritz so i’m going to
do that now
so that is the first pixie product that
i’ve actually tried and i’m really
impressed with it
it’s very hydrating it’s got a beautiful
smell to it and i would definitely
recommend this and 100 would buy this
again once this runs out and then on to
the final
product so this is the glow recipe
watermelon glow
sleeping mask now it is the evening so
i’m going to be putting this on
now and i will be sleeping in it like
you’re supposed to
and the smell of this is amazing it’s
honestly incredible
i’ve used this once this mask and i
remember waking up and feeling
like my skin did actually look really
hydrated
so that’s a good thing but i’ve only
used it once so having said that
i did wake up with hydrated skin so
that’s what it’s supposed to do
the consistency of this is sort of like
a gel consistency
i love the smell of this and so what i’m
going to do is i’m just going to
put that onto my skin
and just gently rub it in
so i literally haven’t had a single
product from that calendar
that i’ve tried yet that i don’t like
like seriously though i am really
impressed with the quality of the
products
and how they’ve been functioning so far
which is really really good
i have used the iconic london eyeshadow
palette as well i will have a tutorial
using
the makeup bits that will be coming soon
so i’ve massaged that into the skin
and i feel really relaxed really
sort of smooth hydrated plumped
everything that you were supposed to
feel from a little skincare routine so
now that i
have done all of my skincare i feel like
i can now relax
i am gonna stick some netflix on i think
i’m gonna watch gossip girl
i really wanted to start it again i’ve
watched it before but since it’s come on
netflix and i’ve finished what i’ve been
watching recently
i’m going to try that i’m going to put
it on i’m going to light a little
cinnamon pumpkin candle my studio which
smells absolutely incredible and is
lasting me forever
because you literally need to have it on
for 10 minutes and your full room smells
like cinnamon pumpkin
it is incredible so all of the products
that i have featured in this video will
be linked down below
i hope that you enjoyed this little
pamper routine with me and like i said
the makeup products that i received in
the glossybox advent calendar we’ll be
doing a separate makeup tutorial
to test those out as well because there
was a really good balance of makeup and
skincare stuff i hope that you enjoyed
this video i feel a lot more relaxed a
lot more pampered
and i’m hoping that this cold is going
to clear up sometime soon because
although it’s not serious illness and
it’s not the big c
word it’s a little c word which is a
cold then
it still sort of takes a lot out of you
yeah i hope that this clears up soon
but thank you very much for watching
