Biovène Barcelona Skincare Review

Biovène Barcelona is a socially conscious, multi-award-winning brand committed to promoting 'Clean' Beauty. Transparency is at the core of its product formulations, which are free from harmful ingredients and contain less than 1% synthetic fragrances. The brand upholds cruelty-free standards, never testing on animals, and offers a range of products that are vegetarian or vegan.
Biovène Barcelona Skincare Review
Founded in Barcelona, Spain, Biovène Barcelona reflects the diversity and inclusivity of its home city, celebrating varied gender identities and cultural backgrounds. Its global presence spans Europe, the Middle East, and America, delivering innovative, premium-quality products at accessible prices. 

The brand believes that beauty should transcend religion, ethnicity, and other barriers, ensuring everyone has equal access to confidence and self-expression.
Biovène Barcelona Skincare Review
I was kindly sent four products from the range to try and better still, you can find Biovène Barcelona on the high street in Morrisons.

Starting with the Vitamin C Day Boost. Described as being an age-defying moisturiser which combines the brightening power of vitamin C with the nourishing benefits of organic mango to instantly hydrate and illuminate your skin. 

Star Ingredients:
  • Vitamin C: A potent antioxidant that brightens skin and reduces visible signs of aging for a vibrant, youthful look.
  • Mango: Packed with vitamin C and antioxidants, it boosts collagen production and protects against skin damage.
  • Orange: Rich in vitamin C, it helps maintain a firm, plump, and youthful appearance while reducing signs of ageing.
I love a bit of Vitamin C in my routine and I have really loved using this cream, it is moisturising and does hydrate the skin and better still, if you have wanted to try a Vitamin C Cream to add to your routine, this is a great place to start.

Up next we have the Hydra-Power Nourish Intense 20% HA + Organic Blueberry Eye Concentrate Roll-On.  This is described as having a revolutionary formula designed to ultra-hydrate the delicate eye contour. Enriched with hyaluronic acid and organic blueberry, it addresses puffiness, wrinkles, and dark circles for a refreshed and youthful appearance.

Star Ingredients:
  • Hyaluronic Acid: A moisture-binding powerhouse that holds up to 1000x its weight in water, hydrating the skin while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Aloe Vera: Known for its cooling and anti-inflammatory properties, it retains moisture and forms a protective layer on the skin.
  • Wild Blueberry: Packed with anthocyanins, a compound that supports collagen production. Blueberries help slow collagen breakdown and boost its synthesis, promoting firm and healthy skin.
I love a good eye roll-on especially when there is a metal roller-ball involved because it is immediately cooing and soothing on the skin and does help with the de-puffing.

The third offering is the 10% Hyaluronic + Vitamin B5 Complex Facial Serum. This hydrating powerhouse blends hyaluronic acid, aloe vera, and vitamin B5 to transform dull, tired skin into a dewy, revitalised, and radiant complexion.

Star Ingredients
  • 10% Hyaluronic Acid: Each molecule binds up to 1000 times its weight in water, delivering optimal hydration and plumping for a restored skin structure.
  • Aloe Vera: With cooling, anti-inflammatory properties, aloe vera locks in moisture, promotes healing, and provides rich antioxidants for healthier skin.
  • Vitamin B5 Complex: This nourishing complex replenishes lost radiance in dry, flaky, or tight skin, leaving it soft and smooth.
Now this is possibly my favourite product within this range.  I love how rich the cream is but it absorbs really quickly with minimal effort and as my skin loves Hyaluronic Acid, it was always going to be a favourite.

Finally we have the Anti-Ageing 1% Retinol + Squalane Complex Facial Serum.  For anyone who wants to try adding a Retinol into their routine, this is a gentle version to try as it is just 1%.  Retinol is perfect for those who want to target the loss of elasticity, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation but it can also be used for blemishes.

Described as being a potent formula, it combines two powerhouse ingredients—retinol and squalane—to tackle all signs of aging, including loss of elasticity, wrinkles, fine lines, and hyperpigmentation, while also supporting blemish-prone skin.

Star Ingredients
  • Retinol: Renowned for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, boosting collagen, minimizing breakouts, evening skin tone, and brightening dark spots for a radiant, youthful look.
  • Squalane: A natural hydrator found in skin that combats dryness, especially when paired with retinol, ensuring skin stays moisturised and balanced.
For a brand that is sold on the high-street, with prices starting around £1.95 you can get an entire skincare routine for around £10 which is really quite amazing.

Elyure Lashes Christmas Gift Guide

Eyelashes are one of those beauty items that you either love or hate I think. I love them but hate applying them and at times can be heard to mutter rather a few expletives until I get them right. 
Elyure Lashes Christmas Gift Guide
Since being introduced to Eylure almost ten years ago, they are one of those brands I really really like, their products are easy to apply and they come in all different types, textures and styles and because I can manage them easily, there is now no expletives shared!  

Whether you like your lashes to be light and wispy, full flutter, looking natural, full of volume or even dramatic, Eylure has absolutely everything you will need to complete your look.  Plus, if you don't want a full strip of lashes, there is now much more options available with extensions, clusters or even the option of magnetic lashes - again, all really easy to use, wear and apply.
Elyure Lashes Christmas Gift Guide
It also doesn't stop there! As well as all of the options mentioned above, Eylure also offers Underlashes and this Eylure Underlash Natural Salon Curl Kit allows you to adhere lash flares under your natural lashes for an Incredibly natural long-lasting lash look.

This 1 step kit includes 30 Natural lash flares, a bond, an applicator, and remover so you have everything you need to create a stunning salon lash extension look in the comfort of your own home.

As well as a selection of lashes, in my view, Eylure also also has the best lash glue that I have ever used and here is two different kits to try.

Diso® Dissolvable Wellness Strips

Meet Diso®, a brand that is new to me and one which brings a fresh approach to health and wellness, offering a range of high-absorption dissolvable strips designed to maximize the benefits of daily supplements. These strips ensure that essential minerals and nutrients are delivered precisely where they are needed, eliminating the need for traditional pills.
Diso® Dissolvable Wellness Strips
Powered by cutting-edge Absorbatec® technology, the bioavailability of vitamins is significantly enhanced compared to other oral dosage forms such as pills and capsules. Additionally, the same advanced technology effectively masks the natural bitterness of nutritional supplements, delivering a variety of tasty and tangy flavors alongside the health benefits.

By skillfully infusing high concentrations of active ingredients, these supplements are optimized for superior absorption, ensuring users gain the maximum advantage from their daily regimen.  When it comes to choosing which Diso® Dissolvable Wellness Strips are right for you, helpfully there is a quiz to help you narrow down your needs, I completed the quiz and my choices are shown above.

The first Diso for me is the Diso® Derma Skin & Hair Supplements which are in the Tropical Watermelon flavour.
Diso® Dissolvable Wellness Strips
Maintaining healthy hair can be a challenge, particularly with regular heat styling. Diso Derma offers a biotin-based supplement formulated with natural nutrients to support strong, healthy, and radiant hair.

This carefully crafted supplement combines Biotin (Vitamin B7), Folic Acid, and Zinc, providing a powerful blend of hair-stimulating ingredients. Additionally, Bamboo Extract has been included to enhance scalp circulation and promote the development of thicker, more vibrant hair.

The second offering is the Diso® Snooze Dissolvable Sleep Aid and they have a really nice Cherry flavour.
Diso® Dissolvable Wellness Strips
A restless night can disrupt the entire day, and chronic sleep issues can have even more serious consequences. Without regular REM sleep, overall health and well-being can decline significantly. To support better rest, Diso Snooze offers a dissolvable sleep aid enriched with valerian, a natural sleep-promoting ingredient and Vitamin B6 to help boost your natural production of serotonin and sleep neurotransmitters.

Insufficient sleep impacts the body in multiple ways, including weakening the immune system, reducing mood stability, increasing susceptibility to stress, and impairing concentration. It is also linked to weight gain, often caused by snacking and unhealthy food choices.

The next one is the Diso® D3+K2 Supplement and this one has a lovely Raspberry flavour
Diso® Dissolvable Wellness Strips
Did you know that a proper intake of Vitamin D3 and K2 enables the body to fully utilise the benefits of calcium for strong bones and teeth. This support enhances physical abilities such as walking, running, and dancing, contributing to an active and enjoyable lifestyle.

Calcium is a vital mineral for maintaining healthy bones, but without adequate levels of D3 and K2, the body struggles to absorb it effectively. This deficiency can compromise bone and dental health, regardless of dietary calcium intake from sources like milk or balanced meals. Diso D3 + K2 supplements offer a solution by combining the benefits of Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 in a convenient dissolvable strip, ensuring the body can efficiently absorb and benefit from calcium.

Finally we have the Diso® Curcumin Supplement with its very nice orange flavour.
Diso® Dissolvable Wellness Strips
As we all know, maintaining excellent heart health is essential for overall well-being. The heart ensures a steady supply of valuable nutrients to all major organs, keeps oxygen circulating throughout the body, and supports brain function, ensuring uninterrupted vitality.

Curcumin supplements deliver a fast-acting boost of heart-supporting nutrients. Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, is known for its potential to enhance blood flow, regulate blood pressure, and support the circulatory system. By promoting better circulation, these supplements may contribute to overall health and improved muscle recovery. Infused with a refreshing orange flavour, they provide both wellness benefits and a delicious taste.

How to use

Using Diso Strips is simple and convenient. Place the supplement on the tongue, savior the flavour, and allow it to dissolve. For optimal results and long-term health benefits, it is recommended to take 1-2 Diso Strips daily, but follow the guidance given on each box.

Price

With prices starting at just £9.99 per box, these are really affordable and if you are not a fan of taking pills, they are a great alternative.

How To Choose A Great Aesthetic Clinic

Whether you have decided to enhance your features or turn back the hands of time, choosing a great aesthetic clinic to help you reach your aesthetic goals is no easy task. You have to do your research, and thorough research at that, before booking a consultation or an appointment to ensure your procedure is safe and your results are nothing short of incredible!

That is why we have created a short guide to help you find the aesthetic clinic of your dreams when surfing the World Wide Web.


Understand Your Goals

Before diving deep into your search, it helps if you clarify your goals. Are you looking for anti-ageing treatments or do you want to contour specific areas of your face? Similarly, do you want to travel to the best clinic in the country or are you looking for the best clinic in your city? Are you situated in the East of England or the South? Are you looking for an aesthetic clinic in Leicester or London?

Writing down your list of wants can help narrow down clinics that specialise in the treatments you are looking for in your area.

Qualifications And Expertise

This is probably one of the most important factors to look at when choosing an aesthetic clinic. Even though aesthetic treatments are non-surgical and do not involve incisions or anaesthesia, they still need to be administered by a qualified professional to ensure they are safe.

You need to check if the clinic’s staff consists of licensed professionals, such as doctors, nurses, dermatologists, and aestheticians.

Also, try to choose a clinic with practitioners who have extensive experience in performing the treatments you are interested in.

Reputation And Reviews

Have a look at online reviews on Google, Trustpilot, Facebook, or any other specialised review platforms. They can give you valuable insight into the clinic. After all, reviews are written by patients. Since many clinics showcase their work either on their website or on social media, you can have a look at before-and-after photos to give you an idea of what to expect.

Of course, nothing beats word-of-mouth recommendations! If you have a family member or a friend who has undergone a similar treatment, never hesitate to ask them about their experience and for recommendations.

Try to also look for specific trends in the quality of service offered, overall professionalism, and satisfied patients with satisfactory results. You can also try to search for the best Leicester beauty clinics or top rated clinics in London to help steer you in the right direction.

Treatment Options

A great aesthetic clinic should offer a wide range of treatments. When doing your research, have a look if the clinic offers customised treatment plans based on your skin type, concerns, and goals. Always avoid clinics that take a one-size-fits-all approach.

Since aesthetic treatments are constantly evolving too, the best clinics try to stay at the forefront of these advancements. Therefore, you should check if they use the latest technologies, techniques and treatments (like peptides or polynucleotides) currently available in the aesthetic field. This indicates they are invested in staying up to date with the latest and providing patients with the best. It also demonstrates a commitment to quality and safety.

Communication

A clinic that prioritises a thorough consultation before patients book any treatment is probably a clinic that is worth your time. This allows you to ask questions about the procedure, expected results, downtime, and potential risks. It also allows the specialist to evaluate your skin type and medical history to provide you with the best treatment suited to your needs.

You should also look for clinics that provide clear pricing, realistic expectations, and honest advice. Transparency is key. While affordability is important, the cheapest option is most certainly not always the best. When choosing an aesthetic clinic, think about the quality offered first before you try to be thrifty.

Trust Your Instincts

Finally, trust your gut. If something feels off during your research or consultation, do not hesitate to explore other options. Your comfort matters.

Remember, choosing an aesthetic clinic is a personal decision, and you should always feel confident and comfortable with your choice.

The Takeaway

Selecting the right aesthetic clinic is an investment in yourself. By looking at qualifications, online reputation, safety standards, and the overall communication and transparency provided, you can find a clinic that not only meets your needs but exceeds your expectations.

A thoughtful approach ensures you partner with practitioners who prioritise your well-being and deliver results that enhance your confidence and satisfaction. Take your time, do your research, and remember, your happiness and satisfaction are worth every effort.

Whether you are pursuing a subtle enhancement or a slightly more transformative change, the right aesthetic clinic will support you every step of the way, making your journey safe, comfortable, and rewarding.

Elegant Touch Gift Guide

When it comes to wearing false nails, Elegant Touch is one of the brands who always spring first into my mind and they are a brand I have used for years, long before I turned to writing this blog. 
Elegant Touch Gift Guide
What I love about Elegant Touch is that as well as being really affordable, they have every kind of pattern, colour, shape and type of nails you can think of and better still, they have some amazing seasonal nails too.

I been kindly gifted a selection of nails from the Elegant Touch False Nails in a variety of different colours, textures, shapes and finishes and if you have never tried this brand before, not only are they easy to apply, they are all really wearable and there is so much choice, it is hard to choose a favourite.
Elegant Touch Gift Guide
As you can see from this selection I have a selection of gel finishes in different shapes and colours and then from the dream nails collection, a selection of nails that are more muted shades making them perfect for all occasions.

You can find Elegant Touch nails on sale in Superdrug, Lookfantastic, ASOS and via their own website here with prices starting around £5.
