Banobagi Calming Care Moisture Pad

Having already introduced the Banobagi cleansing gel to foam just a few weeks ago on my blog, today I am sharing the second of three products, the Banobagi Calming Care Moisture Pad which promise to maintain healthy glowing skin without irritation.
Banobagi Calming Care Moisture Pad
As a brand, Banobagi believe that dermatologist grade cosmetics should be accessible to everyone, so many of their products which they use as part skincare treatments at their clinics became commercially available for use at home.  This particular collection of products has been designed for those with oily but dry skin - which is mine.

The Moisture Pad is essentially a pack of 60 hydrating toner pads which are packaged inside the most beautiful pink tub. Each pad has been designed to give your skin a hit of instant hydration whilst at the same time, removing those dead and dry skin cells all in one go and to do that, it has a pretty impressive list of ingredients.

Key Ingredients:

  • 10 types of hyaluronic acid which works to replenish and retain moisture to give hydrated, plump skin
  • Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA) which removes dead skin cells as well as to clear clogged pores
  • Lotus extract and Centella extract which soothes and moisturises the skin
  • Red Snow Complex which has both an antioxidant effect and anti-pollution effect to create youthful and healthy skin
  • Blue Complex which comes from flowers and it also has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antibiotic effects
These toner pads, which are made from 100% cotton, have both an embossed and smooth side, work together in a two-step process.

Step one, when using the embossed side, helps to remove those dead and dry skin cells and then Step two, which is the smooth side and it moisturises the side. Each one of these pads is saturated with 2ml of liquid and they have not caused any irritation or flare ups with my skin. In fact quite the opposite, I have found they leave my skin feeling soft and smooth to the touch, particularly around my cheeks where I do suffer with dry skin.

These pads are priced around £23 for a tub of 60 and they are great for using before applying your makeup, or if you are in a rush in a morning!

LAURA MERCIER PURE CANVAS PERFECTING PRIMER

If there is one brand a lot of my blogger friends rave about, it's Laura Mercier and for me, other than the Oil-Free Tinted Moisturiser, it isn't a brand I have really delved into, but I have been using the Pure Canvas Perfecting Primer.
LAURA MERCIER PURE CANVAS PERFECTING PRIMER
For as long as I can remember, I have used a primer and I have used a lot of different branded ones over the years, some with silicone, some without and the reason I use them is because of having oily combination skin, I get a mid-afternoon shine, so I need as much help as I can with keeping my face together - so to speak. So for me a Primer is an absolute must.

The Laura Mercier Pure Canvas Perfecting Primer is the described as being the brand’s original flawless-skin formula which is designed to keep makeup in place for longer with a smoother, seamless finish. 
LAURA MERCIER PURE CANVAS PERFECTING PRIMER
LAURA MERCIER PURE CANVAS PERFECTING PRIMER
This is a water based primer which has been formulated without silicone and on the skin it is incredibly lightweight, which I absolutely love. It is also enriched with antioxidant rich Green Tea Extract as well as Vitamin C and it is said that over time your complexion will be treated to a more youthful looking glow with a brighter, more even tone.  Leaving behind no greasy residue, it absorbs quickly rather than sits on the skin and is something you can use even if you choose not to wear makeup. 

Despite every review I have read saying I should use the Pure Canvas Blurring Primer which is said to be best for my skin type, I actually really like this primer and is one I would would purchase again, even priced around £34 for 50ml, because you need just a small pea sized amount, the tube lasts for a long time.
