S W I P E to learn more and I assure you no slugs were harmed when trying this out 🤣🤣🤣
Please make sure you read the last post - it’s very important!!!
Have you slugged your skin before??? 🐌

Glowish - Skin Tint by

In other words, a tinted moisturiser! 😉
🙌🏼 I love light foundations so when my friend at mentioned how good it was and sent photographic evidence to prove it - I was sold 🤣
MY THOUGHTS? 🧐
I ♥️ it! ☺️
It’s LIGHT COVERAGE so don’t expect anything more than that but it gives you this subtle glow that’s gorgeous💫
☝🏼It DOES NOT make your skin look oily or greasy! ..but you definitely get that dewy feel. I did use a very LIGHT dusting of powder to set it and OMG I didn’t use bronzer on top 😱💃🏻
🥴 I am VERY pale and I can’t be without bronzer but I can’t explain how good this looked with no bronzer on top - just some blusher and it was a beautiful natural glowy base!
🤓 Definitely great for daily use or dare I say it - when on HOLIDAY - 😬 (remember holidays?) 😭
I would recommend for anyone with normal to dry skin
✈️Are you planning to go away this summer?

Make the SWAP! Today we swap a classic lipstick from MAC with a brand that won’t fund oppression! The closest you’re going to get for half the price!

Drop the unethical brands and MAKE THE SWAP!

YES, Retinol can cause redness and dryness (which is perfectly normal btw🤓) but what if your skin is super sensitive and the reactions leave your skin feeling sore? 😮

✅Everyone deserves the benefits without the irritable side effects, right? 😭

👉🏼remember if you’re a BEGINNER, don’t go in BIG - look for the lower percentage retinols to allow your skin to build up its tolerability

📢 ETHICAL BRANDS ONLY! 🇵🇸🙌🏼

Nourishing Cleansing Balm No7 Boots UK

🥥It looks like coconut oil (when it’s solidified) so you rub it between your palms to melt it 👐and massage all over your face. Wipe off with a damp cotton pad (PREFERABLY a reusable one! ♻️😉)

It removes makeup with EASE but watch out for waterproof mascara 👀you will need a helping hand with that (use a waterproof mascara remover)

I use this as a pre-cleanser to breakdown all the makeup on my face and then use a different balm to finish off

I tend to use this in my night time routine. There is no greasiness. I ♥️ how soft my skin feels afterwards.

🤑 Pocket friendly too - 80 qar

👉🏼Works best for - NORMAL/DRY skin

I will not be giving any money to brands that support genocide and oppression!

Thanks to Iqra aka The Blushing Giraffe for her research otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to create this list. She has a more detailed post on her page or you can go to her website theblushinggiraffe.com for more info.

Take a screen shot - save it in your phones so that when you next go shopping, you can refer to it!

How often do you wash your bed sheets? It’s okay, you don’t have to tell me, its none of my business! 🤐
🔴 BUT what do your bedsheets have to do with skincare?
➡️ Beds are a breeding ground for bacteria IF the bedding isn’t changed often enough 😭 and a build up of bacteria can potentially cause skin issues 😮
👉🏼S W I P E to find out exactly what is on your bed! 😬

I do love mascaras and their brow gel is a winner 💪🏼 but what about their new mascara They’re Real Magnet??
☝🏼(This is a sample I got at )
Described as an EXTREME lengthening mascara - does it do the job? 🤔
YES!!!! IT DID!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
One coat was enough to get those lashes up, they were all separated, it lasted all day, no smudging or flaking - a very natural finish 😇
BUT 👀
👉🏼It’s not buildable 🥺I feel when you start adding a second coat, it did start to get a little clumpy! 😬
If you want a false lash effect - go for BadGal Bang😎
I’ll post some pics of before and after on my stories later 🥰
Have you tried any mascaras? Let me know 👇🏼

Are you using a chemical or physical sunscreen (physical aka mineral)? 👀

💛S H A R E to benefit others

🗣Let’s discuss this mineral sunscreen from
👉🏼I just want to point out that mineral sunscreens tend to be thick so I was expecting this
😍I LOVE THAT:
💛 there is no white cast 💛it’s non-greasy 💛it’s easy to rub in 💛its fragrance free 💛it doesn’t make my eyes sting 💛it’s great for sensitive skin
😔I DON’T LIKE THAT:
💔it doesn’t sink in easily (feels like I’m wearing a clay mask 😭) 💔it’s tinted (some might like that) 💔it’s easily transferable 💔it’s only SPF30
Overall, it’s a good sunscreen at an affordable price but as much as I am loving my other Inkey products, this is not one I’m going to repurchase 🥺
Have you tried it?

Easy way to remember the difference between UVA and UVB rays
