Animal Sheet Masks from The Creme Shop- Walk Around Your House in a Real Life Snapchat Filter! (& 15% Off Until Monday With This Code)

image.jpg

TK Maxx in Bangor, and I'm guessing everywhere else too, has just taken shipment of dozens of different sheet masks in their beauty department.​

Sheet masks are face masks comprised of a cloth loaded with product that you can optionally chill in the fridge and apply directly to your face. You leave it on for the time directed, or if you wish until it dries out. Technically if you feel comfortable enough you can even sleep in sheet masks for a rejuvenating, moisturing overnight treatment.​

I prefer them to face masks you need to wash off, because I hate rinsing my face and water going up my arms.​

So TK Maxx is a great place to go to try your first sheet mask, there are dozens to choose from and they are packs of three or five for £4.99 which is a very decent price. 

I bought a blueberry pack last week, but had to return to buy these animal face printed ones this week because LOOK AT THE FACES! 

The brand is  The Creme Shop and if you can't find them in your local TK Maxx, you can buy directly from their site. $4 for one mask, $10 for the pack of three like I bought.

The site has a hyaluronic acid penguin variety I really want to try. I'll maybe see if another nearby TK Maxx has them, if not I'll order online.

If you want to order from  The Creme Shop Webstore you can get 15% off until Monday with the code 'LABORDAY'. They also sell brushes and eyelashes, if you want to stock up.

Also picked this little kit up for £3

But do they work and what are they like? I tried the Tiger Collagen mask last night on clean skin with makeup removed. 

Wonderfully the scent reminded me of Floral Gums. The sheet mask feels great on, and a little bonus is that the 'eyes' are on the mask, where usual white masks just have the eye holes. This extra bit of mask means you can push the fabric right up under your lashes so there isn't a circle around each eye missing out on the product.  

Another benefit of the mask being printed with an animal face is that you know which side of the mask goes on the skin. Sometimes with a plain white mask you can't tell which side of the fabric has the most product on it, to place onto the skin.

I left the mask on 15 mnutes and afterward my skin felt soft and fresh. I was very happy with the result.

So until I can get plastic surgery to look like my favourite Snapchat filter, the deer, I guess  The Creme Shop is the next best thing. Also great idea for little stocking filler presents for Christmas, or for teachers' gifts.

Choose A New Year Beauty Routine From Eloquence- The Premium Skin Care That Really Made a Difference for Me

Good news if you want to try the skin care routine I blogged about in Autumn. Eloquence Beauty have lowered the price of their starter kit to £75. It's includes the four steps of the night routine, plus the mega nourishing treatment oil for use on hair, skin and nails.

Beforehand I used Boots No.7 skin care at night time, and after a week using Eloquence I knew I had found the range for me. My skin was so much softer- which was a shock as I always believed all skin products were much of a muchness. 

If you fancy trying just one of the products to start with, there is an offer code for 20% off individual items JANUARYEQ . Let me know how you get on! 

40% Off Eloquence Beauty- The Four-step Premium Skin Care Routine that Really Makes a Difference.

image.jpg

For the past fortnight I've swapped my regular night time skin routine, to a four-step routine from the new, natural, cruelty-free, affordable yet premium Eloquence Beauty Care range.

I usually use an intense No.7 serum, then their night cream. Sometimes I would use a different product for a couple of days if I've got a sample to try, or something new from a beauty subscription box, and I don't really notice a difference in my skin so I've been of the opinion all night creams are much of a muchness. 

image.jpg

That was until I tried Eloquence's natural skincare routine. Four steps to use morning and night, plus a huge 50ml beauty oil made with sacha inchi extract. I'll talk you through each product.

This is how each product looks. Different consistencies.

Step one is a cleanser. You use a small amount with water and rinse off the day. However I don't wash my makeup off at night, I use a baby wipe with Simple eye makeup remover soaked on it. So I've transferred the facial cleanser into my shower where I can use it every morning on my skin which would be too delicate for shower gel. Unlike some cleansers, Eloquence cleanser removes any trace of even waterproof mascara. It gets a thumbs up from me.

Second comes the firm & tone serum. Again you only need a small amount and its non-oily.

Third is eye gel. It's transparent, fresh and green. It has a cooling effect and sits nicely when drying, no greasy feeling on your lashes, which can be annoying.

The last step is a protect and repair cream.  it has a luxurious luminous appearance and dries in quickly. All together the routine leaves your skin soft with a scent of rose petals. After three or four days you will begin to feel the difference in your skin. It's tricky to show you, but my skin feels soft and lovely.

The final product is 50mls of magical oil. It can be used for everything, not just skin but your hair and nails too. I treated the ends of my hair with it and left it overnight & it did revive it a little. 

Mostly I just use the oil all over my skin. It doesn't leave you greasy, just very slippery! If you use it on your face once a week you'll love the result.

So if you like what you hear, how about buying the whole set at a discount price?  The Eloquence Pure Luxury Collection is available with all four routine products, plus the wonder oil 50ml.
