Simple Kind To Skin Moisture Boost Hydro Mist


Again this is another product that made it’s way into my basket due to me being unable to refrain from buying anything with the word NEW on it’s packaging.  But I am so glad that this little beauty caught my eye because it’s such a welcome addition to my beauty regime.

Simple’s Kind To Skin Moisture Boost Hydro Mist is described as the perfect blend of ingredients (lotus flower being the main one) to rehydrate and give your skin an instant boost.  It’s the perfect remedy for dull looking skin and can even be used over the top of your make up.  This product caught my eye as it reminded me a lot of MAC’s Fix + spray that I’ve heard so much about.  I’ve wanted to buy it for sometime now but just can’t bear to part with the money for it unless I know it does some good.  

I say this without using Fix + but Simple’s version seems like a great little dupe for it with a much more friendly price tag.  I tend to use it first thing on a morning before make up to really wake my skin up and get my face ready for the day.  It also comes in handy mid-afternoon at work when I’m having a little lull and need a refreshing pick me up.  It sprays just the right amount of mist on your face so it sinks in quickly and doesn’t look too wet or shiny.  I love to use it after I’ve done my make up too because it stops it looking too ‘cakey‘ and gives a natural dewy effect.

I really can’t speak highly enough of this product but being the beauty junkie that I am, I’m still tempted by MAC’s Fix + and would be interested to see if it’s any better or does anything different to this.  What do you think?  Has anyone out there tried either products and prefer one to the other?

Simple Kind To Eyes Nourishing Eye Make Up Remover Cream


After a long day I like nothing more than coming home and taking off my make up but I hate how pesky mascara is to remove.  I normally opt for liquid eye make up removers but I am yet to find one I completely love.  They’re either too oily, require too much scrubbing, sting my eyes or in some cases, just don’t work.  When I saw Simple’s Nourishing Eye Make Up Remover Cream I thought I’d give it a go as the formula is a little different to what I normally choose.  I’m so pleased I did!

Containing no unnecessary perfumes or colouring, the cream is so much kinder to my eyes and it takes half the amount of time to remove my eye make up.  I use a generous amount on a cotton pad and it melts away make up without applying much pressure.  It even passes my shower test.  ‘Shower test?‘ I here you ask.  Well...do you ever take off your eye make up prior to a shower, get washed (hair, face and all), and then come out with panda eyes because all of your mascara STILL isn’t off?  Well that nearly always happens to me but not after I use this.  This product ensures I don’t step out of the bathroom looking like a small wet bear.

I never usually buy the same eye make up remover twice because I’m always on the lookout for something better but I can guarantee you that I will be re-purchasing this.  It’s my favourite product at the moment as I’m feeling really tired and working lots of extra hours.  Every day I look forward to getting in from work and relieving my heavy eyes and this is just a little dream for helping with that task.  I’d definitely recommend it.  

Anyway, my blog posts may be few and far between due to said extra hours so I’m sorry about that.  I have a relaxing trip to the countryside planned for this weekend and I can’t wait to just chill and do nothing for a few days!  Absolute bliss!  Right, laptop down, time to go remove this mascara...
