Clarisonic Mia 2 - 3 months on

I was lucky enough to get a Clarisonic Mia 2 to try out for 3 months thanks to the lovely people at Current Body! I had been looking at these for a while but, honestly, I wasn't sure about spending £120 for something I wasn't sure would be for me. The Mia 2 is an electrical face cleansing brush, a bit like an electric toothbrush for your face. I have quite sensitive skin so I thought this gadget would be too harsh.

Here is a bit of blurb from the website:

The Mia 2 is an extension of the popular Clarisonic Mia family that gives you all the benefits of sonic cleansing in a compact, easy-to-use style. The Mia 2 unlike the Mia features two speeds, a one-minute pulsing T-Timer and a protective travel case for on-the-go sonic cleansing. Now you have more choices for beautiful skin.

This really is a gadget for girls! It is so simple to use. Here's a little video I've done (be kind, it's my first attempt).

The Mia 2 comes with an easy to attach charger, and the charge lasts for a couple of weeks so it's perfect for throwing in your suitcase for holidays, especially with the handy wee travel case!

Above is a before picture.....you can see how my skin has improved on the video above, and I really feel like it has improved loads. Here is a picture taken today, with nothing but BB cream and a little mascara.:

I feel like my skincare is so much more effective, I'm using less moisturiser and less makeup because all the dead skin and other junk that would just sit on the surface of my skin has gone so my moisturiser can sink in better.

I'd say the Mia 2 is definitely worth investing in, just suffer through the breakout that will inevitable come in the first couple of weeks and then after hat you will never be without the Mia 2!

Benefit B.right Skincare

I was lucky enough to win a competition and received lots of Benefit goodies! I was super excited because I've recently rediscovered my love of this range. Benefit was the first premium make up range I bought, longer ago than I care to think....

A couple of the products I received were from the B.right range. Benefit say you'll have skin so bright you'll need a dimmer switch! Sounds good to me!

I received the Foamingly Clean Facial Wash. It's £16.50 for 127.5g. I'm a bit wary of facial washes in general but I gave it a go.

I have quite dry skin and  normally go for rich feeling cream cleansers. You only have to use a tiny amount of this gorgeous creamy cleanser, massage in, and then rinse off. My skin is left feeling very soft, not at all tight, and very clean. I still need to use eye make up remover to get rid of the mascara but it removes evgerything else really well.

Next is the Triple Performing Facial Emulsion. Priced at £19.50 for 50.3ml.

This is a perfect day cream as it has SPF15, and we all know how important an SPF is. it's a nice light moissturiser, oil free and smells gorgeous. I've only been using this a few days but love it so far.

I already had the Total Moisture Facial Cream and have been using this for a couple of months.

This is a very rich feeling cream, for me more suited as a night cream. It has a gorgeous fresh smell and feels very light but nourishing. I absolutely love it and feel mlike it gives a really nice moisture boost without being greasy or heavy feeling. This is priced at £26.50 for 48.2g.

All in all, I'm in love with this range and am very tempted to try the othe rproducts in the range. Benefit say this range will give your skin such radiance that you'll need a dimmer switch and so far I'm finding that to be true!

Allo products available from Benefit.
