touch in SOL Pretty Filter Waterful Glow Cream

I have made no secret of my love for touch in SOL ever since I was introduced to it last year. In that time I have featured quite a few of the brand's products here on my blog - Primers, Mascara, Eyeshadow, Lipstick and so much more, I guess you could say it has grabbed me and hooked me. If you didn't know, touch in SOL, the brainchild of Korean Beauty innovator Sean Lim is a fusion of life, energy, colour, innovation, and fun, which helps the brand to transcend the skincare and makeup realms of beauty. The drive to satisfy the growing demand for newness can be attributed to the breakthrough formulations that go into the creation of every product.

Today sees the turn the newly launched touch in SOL Pretty Filter Waterful Glow Cream which is described as being the secret to bouncy, glossy skin.

Ideal for daily use, Pretty Filter Waterful Glow Cream can be applied to the face, neck and decolletage as the final stage of your skincare routine and it should be applied to the parts where your skin appears visibly dry or dull. For me, I apply it to my cheeks and forehead and tap it into my skin and what it does is add luminosity. You can also apply this product after you have applied your makeup for that dewy look and I simply pat it on using my beauty blender. If all of that isn't enough, you can also use it as a sleep mask and this time you apply a thicker layer and allow it to seep into the skin. I have done this a few times now because my skin is not liking this cold spell we are having and I also love an overnight mask and what I have found it does, is hydrate my skin incredibly well.

The texture is quite a bouncy gel which turns to an almost water like substance on contact and I love how it feels on my skin. It uses an advanced formula of key ingredients which include hyaluronic acid, 3 layered hyaluronic, Centella Asiatica extract which is said to have potent antioxidant properties as well as being a rich source of amino acids, marine collagen extract and garcinia fruit extract all of which come together to hydrate, deeply moisturise, smooth, nourish and best of all it is cruelty and paraben free.

I have pretty much finished this pot of Glow Cream and have loved every minute of being able to use it.  It retails for £23 and is worth every single penny.  Better still, if you want to try it or any of the other products I have raved about on my blog, then you can grab yourself 20% off by using the code BQUKxSOL20 right here and the code is valid until 1st March 2019 and if you spend over £15 you can also grab free shipping by using the code SHIPSOLFREE!


I would love to know if anything from touch in SOL grabs your attention!

Temple Spa The Power Breakfast Nutritious Scrub and Mask in One

I have been working my way through a few products from Temple Spa and just a few weeks ago (here), I featured the amazing 'In the Beginning, Deep Cleansing Melt' and it is just amazing.  The second product I have absolutely loved using is The Power Breakfast Nutritious Scrub and Mask in One and I love a versatile product and this is one.  Working as either a Scrub or a Mask or even both, it is described as being perfect for combination skin that needs balancing.
This scrub-mask is formulated with oats, honey, fruit and juice which work to gently dissolve dead skin cells as well as to decongest, polish and brighten skin. Again, there are three key ingredients to this product and the first one is the juices of Apples and Pears, second is Oats and third, we have Kaolin Clay.

  • Apples and pears are known for their cleansing, exfoliating and moisturising abilities. They are natural humectants so can attract and hold onto water molecules and help the skin to retain its natural moisture as well as helping to balance the pH level of the skin leaving you with a smooth and even skin tone. They both possess exfoliating capabilities, working to remove dead dull skin cells, aiding the cell turnover process and giving clarified, radiant skin. 
  • Oats contain moisturising and softening properties and not only do they help to exfoliate the skin to remove dead skin cells and get rid of dry, flaky skin, in doing so they help to rid the skin of daily toxins which helps to improve skin tone and texture. Oats also contain anti-inflammatory properties and have a calming effect on sensitive or irritated skin.
  • Kaolin Clay is one of the few clays I can use on my face without causing irritation. It works to balance both oily and dry skin, absorbing excess oil and reducing the production of sebum without stripping the skin. It also has deep cleansing, decongesting and toning qualities, helping to eliminate acne, blemishes and blackheads.

I love a product that is versatile and this is one of those products because you can use it as a one minute scrub or twenty-minute mask and either use is just divine, it just comes down to how your skin is feeling at the time of use.

This product is perfect for anyone like me who has combination skin and it is priced at £28 from the Temple Spa website right here (aff link).
