GLAMGLOW Gravitymud POWER RANGERS

GLAMGLOW presents its Power Ranger Limited Edition Gravitymud. They have teamed up with Saban's Power Rangers two create two limited edition Gravitymud Firming Treatments in two new colours. The inspiration comes from the villains in the movie: Rita Repulsa Green and Goldar Gold.

Of course the Gravitymud treatment doesn't need any presentation as it is a fantastic tightening and tonic treatment. The formula peels off to reveal lifted and tighter skin. Contours are also more defined and skin feels firmer thanks to the mega-targeted ingredients that brilliantly work together.

Let's go au naturel with wet n wild!

After the Holidays it was time for some new makeup and I really enjoyed trying wet n wild makeup. Sometimes you just want to go "au naturel" and the two eyeshadows 10-pan palettes with neutral shades is really a must! I particularly loved the "Bare Necessities" one, which gives you a great choice of bronze-hued shade ranging from matt to shimmer and it is really your perfect everyday go-to palette. While keeping the eyes simple but chic you can dare with a pop of colour on the lips. The Megalast Liquid Catsuit Lipstick glides so well on the lips and goes from glossy to matte when applied. It is long-lasting and the applicator wand ensures a smooth and even application. If you are a fan of lipsticks on the other hand you will love wet n wild Silk Finish Lipstick which thanks to vitamin  A & E and aloe vera really gives you that silk sensation on your lips. Finish off the look with some gorgeous colour on your nails with the Wild Shine Nail Colour. I like Burgundy Frost but you really have a great choice of colours and you are sure to find one to match your look and mood!

Pixi Beauty has landed in Switzerland

I am always excited when I get the chance to try out new beauty products and I certainly was very excited when I received some Pixi Beauty products in my mailbox.

Petra Strand makeup artist and product developer created Pixi over 10 years ago and now has a worldwide following who love their skin-loving products.

The products promise to give you radiant skin, all with innovative formulations infused with botanicals and beneficial ingredients.

I have tried some of their products and I surely was positively impressed. Let's start by the skincare products and more precisely with the Double Cleanse, Glow Tonic and Glow Mist.

As soon as I got the products the Double Cleanse was the one I was more curious to try out. It is basically a 2-in-1 cleanser with one side cointaining a solid cleansing oil and the other a cleansing cream. You start by applying the solid cleansing oil to dry skin and massage it. You then remove it with water or a wet facecloth. Then as your second step to double cleanse you apply the cleansing cream to wet skin also massaging it and then remove it with a wet facecloth. I really think the double cleansing is working wonder to my skin as it has done so much for my skin. The solid cleansing oil thanks to Vitamin E protects and conditions skin while Camelia Oil rich in Omega 3 nourishes. The Cleansing cream thanks to Vitamin C promotes collagen and protects skin while the Peptide complex relaxes lines and plumps. It is a perfect all-in-one products, as it removes all your makeup effectively while deep cleansing skin, leaving skin clean soft and supple.

I then follow the cleansing routine with the Glow Tonic. Formulated with 5% Glycolic Acid it exfoliates, smoothes and brightens skin. It is alcohol free and thanks to the aloe vera, ginseng and botanical extracts nourishes and treats skin. Complexion is clear, fresh and glowing. The Glow Mist on the other hand is your glow on-the-go used when needed it gives skin a glowy and luminous complexion. Enriched with 13 natural oils, propolis, aloe vera and fruit extracts it hydrates and protects. The mist can also be used to set makeup and to give a beautiful glow.

I also had the oppurtunity to try some makeup products such as the Flawless and Poreless Primer, Large Lash Mascara and Endless Silky Eye Pen.

The Flawless and Poreless Primer not only is the perfect primer for all skin types but also smoothes fine lines while hydrating to create a beautiful canva for makeup application. It also minimizes pores and controls shine. The Large Lash Mascara and Endless Silky Eye Pen are really two must-haves for me! The Endless Silky Eye Pen is waterproof, no-smudge, easy to apply and incredibly long-wearing while the Large Lash Mascara gives you extreme volume and colour with one sweep!

Pixi Beauty is available in Switzerland at Marionnaud.
