Caci Skin Gift Guide 2023

With all the running around, stresses, strains and queuing to be done in the run up to Christmas, one of the best gifts you can give to yourself is some time out and self love. Just over a year ago, I was introduced to Caci Beauty and as a brand it is one you don't forget using and thoroughly enjoying, and the products won't annoy your bank manager with their pricing!
Caci Skin Gift Guide 2023
Today, I have a selection of amazing products to share, which give you time to sit down and relax and just take some time out.

Starting with the eyes, I have an Eye Revive Mask (£7.50/£35) and it is one of my favourite products from the brand. This is a transparent silicon gel eye mask which has a soothing and calming effect on tired eyes. On the skin, this mask feels absolutely incredible when applied to the face as it is cool to the touch but soaked in enough serum to really feel relaxing. For anyone who suffers with tired, puffy eyes, then the soothing and calming action works wonders.
Caci Skin Gift Guide 2023
Packed full of amazing ingredients including Hyaluronic acid and Cucumber extract which work together to deeply nourish, cool and moisturise the skin, there is also the inclusion of Green Tea extract which helps to detoxify the skin and reduce puffiness and Collagen to plump up the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Staying with the eyes is the Eye Revive Serum (£36) and it is described as being a line-smoothing, vegan-friendly lightweight eye wonder serum that delivers long-lasting hydration and visibly brightens the eye area - So quite the clam. 
Caci Skin Gift Guide 2023
It uses calming and conditioning seaweed extracts alongside powerful rice and soy peptides that work to diffuse the appearance of dark circles and boost collagen for smoother, firmer skin, water-binding hyaluronic acid, and line-reducing biotin. What I love about this product is how it is packaged, almost like a syringe, you get to use just enough product without any waste and it is easily absorbed with a few finger tappings.

Next is something for the hands and it is the Rejuvenating Hand Mask (£8/£37.50). I am lucky enough to have used these before and have re-purchased them because they are just so lovely to use.  
Caci Skin Gift Guide 2023
Described as being a hydrating and nourishing pair of gloves which are perfect to use at home as part of your regular hand care routine. Hydrating and nourishing, these gloves contain a host of powerful ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Hydrolysed Collagen and Shea Butter, they come together to help combat the signs of ageing by softening the skin and smoothing the appearance of fine lines. After use, these Rejuvenating Hand Mask will leave your hands feeling soft, supple and re-hydrated, all for just 20 minutes of your time.

If you love face masks, then this Hydro Mask (£8.50/£40) is one of the most soothing and easy to use masks I have come across. The mask itself comes in two parts, one for the upper part of your face and one for the lower part of your face and I find that it fits really well to all contours of the face and it doesn't slip off either.
Caci Skin Gift Guide 2023
The mask with its infusion of ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, collagen and rose water instantly sooth and calm as soon as it has been applied to the skin as well as to pump the skin with moisture, so if you have dry skin, then this is a mask you really should try.

The Amino Peptide Lift Complex (£45) is a product you didn't know you needed to try until now! Utilising a combination of clinically effective peptides and amino acids which help to improve the firmness of the skin, reduce expression lines and wrinkles and help combat the signs of ageing.
Caci Skin Gift Guide 2023
Using an Amino-Lift Peptide Complex which helps to improve skin firmness and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and it works along Peptides to achieve what is referred to as being a Botox™ like effect that inhibits the contraction of the facial muscles responsible for the formation of lines and wrinkles.  I don't have enough wrinkles to show the difference this product has made, but what it does is help with firmness, especially around the jowls!

The last product I have to share in this gift guide is the Purifying Silver Mask (£8.50/£40) and its job is to soothe, calm and improve the appearance of problematic skin.
Caci Skin Gift Guide 2023
Like the Hydro Mask above, this mask comes in two parts, one for the upper part of your face and one for the lower part of your face. Infused with pure colloidal silver, for its anti-bacterial properties, it works to help skin that is prone to blemishes and breakouts. There is also a combination of other key ingredients such as Aloe Leaf Extract, Seaweed Extract and Marine Collagen and they work together to maintain healthy skin and a clearer complexion.  I adore this mask, instantly soothing, especially when it has been in the fridge for a few hours before use, it fits onto the contours of your face and doesn't budge - though my advice is to use the 10-20 minutes of time that this mask needs to work, to lie down somewhere and relax, to really reap the benefits.

So there you have three inexpensive but amazingly good products from CACI Beauty which would make an incredible gift to yourself!

FaceFact Wonder Cream

I have featured facefact a few times now on my blog and if you haven't yet come across them, they are a brand that is described as being affordable and feel good skincare and today I am featuring the Wonder Cream.
FaceFact Wonder Cream
Described as being a dreamy blend of botanical extracts and antioxidants which help to rejuvenate, boost hydration and get that youthful, smooth, glowing feeling. It is packaged in a small glass jar and already a few people have asked if it is a dupe for Charlotte Tilbury's Magic Cream and personally, I don't think it is.

This Wonder Cream has been expertly crafted with a host of amazing ingredients which includes: 
  • Niacinamide, 
  • Hyaluronic Acid 
  • Liquorice Root, 
  • Green Tea 
  • Rosemary Extracts 
All of these ingredients come together to really give your skin, as has been described,  a boost of hydration along with a smooth and glowing complexion.

I really like the texture of this cream, it is rich and indulgent without being too thick. When applied to the skin, it massages in really quickly and because it is fragrance free, it is unlikely to cause any irritation.  Once applied after cleansing and toning, my skin always feels hydrated and smooth to the touch.
FaceFact Wonder Cream
It can be used both morning an evening as part of your skincare routine and as with all products within the Face Facts range have been expertly formulated for all skin types, including for those who have dry and sensitive skin.

The Face Facts range is also fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and vegan friendly and it is readily available from Home Bargains, B&M, and Savers.  The Wonder Cream costs just £7.99.
