Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue

Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue Tinted Hydrating Gel Cream
If you're looking to for a hydrating dewy base, this is one for you. The Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue Tinted Hydrating Gel Cream is a bb, cc and tinted moisturizer in one. It has the benefits of hydrating skincare with dewy, sheer to medium coverage.

As someone with dry skin and always in search of glowing products, I was interested in giving this a try. Bare Minerals claim it will provide increased skin hydration after one week. I don't know if my skin is more hydrated after using this, but it definitely looks smoother, and has a nice natural glow to it. Most importantly, my skin doesn't look like it's flaking off like it does with heavier foundations. This isn't always enough coverage for me, so I do mix in a bit of a heavier coverage foundation and still find it gives a great appearance to the skin.

This has become a favourite of mine and think it's a great everyday base as someone who doesn't need a lot of coverage. I can see myself using this a ton in the warmer months coming up for sure. There is a great shade selection and won't break the bank considering it's a high end makeup brand.

What's In My Shower

redken smooth lock shampoo, conditioner, butter silk, so silver purple shampoo, its a 10 blondes mask

I haven't shared my current shower products in a while, so I thought I would do so today. This is forever changing as I'm always trying new things, but here's the current line up.

Redken Smooth Lock Shampoo and Conditioner
These are aimed to smooth frizz dry, unruly hair. With macademia oil it helps to keep a long-lasting smooth, moisturized finish to the hair. I like the Butter Silk Conditioner, and find it helps with frizz and leaves my hair really soft.

Matrix Total Results So Silver Purple Shampoo
Since hilighting my hair, I like to use purple shampoo every other wash or so. This works as a toner to rid any brassy tones in the hair. I don't really like this particular one as i find it really drying on my hair. I tend to use a little squirt with the redken shampoo to help keep my hair from feeling like straw.

Its a 10 Five Minute Repair Mask For Blondes
I've only recently got this one, but so far so good. This is a conditioning treatment targeted towards blondes with a purple tint. It only needs to be left on five minutes, though I leave it a little longer sometimes for extra moisture. I dont think this does a lot to enhance the colour, but it does make my hair feel really soft after. Also it smells really nice.

Be Better Dusk To Dawn Body Wash
This has a nice warm scent of golden amber and precious myrrh. nothing overly special about this one but it smells nice and doesnt dry my skin out.
