The Great BROWnanza | Benefit Cosmetics

The one thing Benefit Cosmetics are known for is their brow skills, they can transform any brow and make it a wow brow, even mine which had been over-threaded and barely existed. Brow products have filled in the markets in recent years and Benefit have launched some incredible products. So when this beauty landed on my doorstep, you probably all heard me squeal with delight.

The Hero Project – Resurfizz Enzyme Peel Collection

Resurfizz is the latest release from The Hero Project, a British Beauty Brand whom I have featured before on my blog (here and here) and I have been really impressed. Resurfizz is described as being exciting new British beauty concept that mobilizes people power and great science, on a mission to rid your bulging drawers of beauty clutter and replace it with the best beauty products you truly love, has created a new Friday fizz – for your face.

Immediately having my attention, Resurfizz is a two-step treatment which starts with the Thermo Melt exfoliating cleanser which comes in tube form with enough product for at least 4 uses. It is described as being 'a super-charged exfoliating cleanser which gently heats up on your skin, opening your pores to cleanse and purify'. 

On the skin, the cleanser does feel warm, but it isn't uncomfortable at any point. To use, you simply ensure you have damp skin and then apply a small amount to your face, as you do any other cleanser, wait for it to warm and then massage it, but gently because it does contain exfoliating particles.

So, on the skin, the Cleanser is used to open those pores, cleanse deeply, remove excess sebum, oil and anything else lurking on the skins surface as well as dead and dry skin and it does a pretty good at doing all of the above without irritating or stripping the skin.

Once the cleanser is removed using the accompanying viscose cloth, it is time to add the second part of this two-step treatment - the Enzyme Fizz. Described as being an oxygenated mask that fizzes up on your face and micro-exfoliates your pores, leaving a naturally resurfaced complexion, without acids; with natural pomegranate enzymes. Inside the package, you get four of these pots, one for each use of the cleanser and a spatula to help with the application.

As soon as the pot is open, the air will start the carbonating process and as you spread the gel-like mask onto your skin, the fun starts. For me, it tickles as it fizzes and as it fizzes there is a production of big frothy white bubbles on the surface of your skin, at no point will you be at your most attractive, but you will probably laugh and giggle a whole lot as you watch the bubbles appear. Designed to be left on the skin for between 5-7 minutes before wiping off.

There is no denying that this is a fun treatment but it is one which does work really well on my skin.  I have combination skin which leans to the oily side especially with my t-zone and anything that helps reduce excess sebum and re-balance my skin will always get a thumbs up from me especially if it is not left feeling dry after using. 

Priced at £49 here and Resurfizz is just brilliant.
