Bioderma: Is It Worth The Hype?

Hey Ladies,

Bioderma.

I feel like writing this post I am way way behind on the times. When I started reading blogs and watching YouTube tutorials way back when, I feel like everyone and their dog had Bioderma and it was this mystical products that did a miraculous job at removing makeup. It was literally the most hyped about product on the market so when a friend from work was heading home to Poland at the end of the Summer last year she kindly picked me up a bottle so I could see what all the fuss was about for myself. 

                                               

With cotton pad in hand and a full face of makeup to be removed I gave it a bash and I felt it was all a bit meh. Just meh. Don't get me wrong it removes makeup alright but I wouldn't say its anything better than your run of the mill micellar water that you could pick up in Boots on sale for about 6quid. When I initially tried Bioderma I had already been using the Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water for quite a while so I think if I hadn't of been using that maybe, just maybe I might have been a little more impressed. But with all the hassle to get it and the price which is in and around the €15 mark for two small bottles I felt it was very underwhelming! 

In all honesty I think I'll just stick to my Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water for now but at least it's one product I got to tick of my BBL(Beauty Bucket List)....on to the next one!

Irish Beauty Show Haul

Hey Ladies,
As I mentioned on the blog before the Irish Beauty Show was on its way around. Well, it has come and gone! I have the teeniest haul for you as I didn't see much that I wanted at the show.

 At one of the stands they were selling this Yes To Cucumber wipes for 2.50, which I thought was a bargain. I also have been avidly trying out different types of wipes to source the best ones for my kit. I have since finished the packet and will be posting a review soon.

 I got these lashes free from a stand after signing up for a competition. They were at a stand that provided permanent lash extension training, which I have been looking into! You can find out more about this on perfectlady.ie

 Last but certainly not least, I have fulfilled one of my goals...owning some Tweezerman tweezers. Ever since I began having an interest in the beauty industry I have wanted some and now I have them at the fantastic price of 10euro. I know they are the mini version of the tweezers but, size doesn't matter heh? ;)

 I thought I would also include this in today's post, as I arrived home I found that the lovely postman had dropped in my sample of the Garnier BB Cream which you could request from their website. In it comes little pouches of the product for you to try out. I am unsure whether to do a post on this as this product doesn't suit my skin tone, so it wouldn't be a fair trial.

...And that is it! As you can see I didn't buy much but I thought I would share anyhow.
Love,
S
