I Love Cosmetics Moisture Tint Lip balms

I am a big fan of the brand I Love Cosmetics and have featured them a few times here on my blog. Today I have a new product to share with you from the range, one which is cute, a little bit quirky and more pigmented than I was expecting and that is the Moisture Tint Lip Balms.

I have three from the range right now and they are quite similar in style to many Lip Crayons that you can find out there on the highstreet, but there is one difference with these and it is the cute nib covers which are in the shape of a heart with the word 'Love' written on them.

They come in three different shades and scents.  Grape is the darkest of the three and if you have ever had a Jolly Rancher Grape Soda, then it smells exactly like the drink.  Scent aside, it is lovely bright vibrant purple shade. Then we have Dark Cherry which smells like Cherry Coca Cola and is a really lovely bright red shade.  Finally there is Strawberry which reminds me of Strawberry Laces and it is a really lovely dark pink shade.

All three lip balms glide onto the lips to give a really good colour, the pigmentation, as I have mentioned is really good and they last on my lips just as long as any other high-street brand does and naturally it does depend on how much you eat and drink when it comes to re-applying, but you shold get a few hours wear from them.

They are moisturising and work well on their own or with lip gloss.  I sometimes add them over the top of my lipstick for a little extra colour and for £2.99 they are amazing value for money.

What do you think to these balms?

Heaven Skincare by Deborah Mitchell

Heaven skincare is a brand that has appeared on my blog a few times now and it is a brand I absolutely love and today I wanted to share a few of the products that I have absolutely loved using.


Heaven Skincare by Deborah Mitchell


Limited Edition Cleanser (25ml £10)
This is a really light skin softening milk that works to gently open pores to remove debris and pollutants. It contains extracts of coconut oil and beetroot to increase blood flow and act as an anti-aging face cleanser that balances hormones. Using the ingredients of Organic Ylang Ylang for its healing abilities on dry skin. You use this cleanser both morning and evening.

I find this really soothing on my skin, it isn't too heavy or thick a texture and living in London, products which help to remove the days dirt and grime, like this does, will always get the thumbs up from me.


Divine Cream with Organic Mandarin and Orange (15ml £28)
When something smells so delightful of oranges, you know it is going to be a wonderful product and this cream is no exception and it is a fresh scent too. Designed to be an anti-ageing cream which is suitable for all skin types and works to increase collagen and elastin in the skin.

It also reduces skin pigmentation, reduces the appearance of scarring, aids sun damage and is packed with a natural source of vitamin C to leave your skin looking more radiant. To use, you apply to freshly cleansed skin in the morning and the evening.


Chamomile Desensitising Hydrogel (10ml £10)
This product does exactly what it says it will do - soothing the inflammation caused be a variety of skin complaints which include acne, psoriasis or rosacea. It is also said to be ideal for those with sensitive skin too because it helps to reduce sensitivity. Using a mixture of Organic Chamomile and Rose essential oils mix with organic Witch Hazel and Coconut to calm and deliver much needed nutrients and hydration to stressed out complexions. 


To use, you simply apply after cleansing using a cotton wool pad, or you can also use it as a primer before applying your make-up and not only does it help keep your make-up in place, but it also helps keep your skin hydrated.  

The Overnight Success Cream.  (15ml £37)
This product took over two years to develop was described by Deborah Mitchell as "The best" and it contains a whole host of anti-ageing ingredients such as vitamins B5, C and E, Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide, which fizzes on the skin and feeds it so skin will be able to breathe overnight. Add to that the softening oils of sandalwood to leave your skin feeling like velvet in the morning , plus a rose oil has anti-ageing properties leaving fine lines and wrinkles plumped up. After using it, your skin is left feeling dewy and it has a radiant look about it.

What I love most about it is how cooling it is on the skin, as soon as it makes contact there is an instant effect, as though your skin is breathing a sigh of relief.

You might have guess by now that I am a huge Heaven Skincare fan, I love the thought process that goes into each product and I love how my skin feels affer using each one of these products.
