Mary Kay TimeWise+ Volu-Fill Wrinkle Corrector

Mary Kay TimeWise+ Volu-Fill Wrinkle Corrector $88.00 available from www.marykay.com.au

Have you ever used a beauty product and thought that the description didn't match what was in the tube?

I had that exact experience with the new Mary Kay Wrinkle Corrector (I am shortening the name because plah-leese, I am not typing it 7 times in this post)The first time I applied the very thick cream to my eye area as part of my nightly skincare routine it felt very strange and not nourishing to the area at all. The next morning I applied it to the same area around my eyes whilst looking in a mirror and it was amazing. This is what I wanted the much hyped Indeed Labs Nanoblur to do, act as a primer, fill in and blur fine lines and sit perfectly under my make up! Mary Kay claims it to be a fine line and wrinkle corrector with skin care benefits, but I am not too sure it works that way and I didn't see any improvement in my fine lines over the 2 weeks of use. But I did become obsessed with it as a primer for eye make up, it is perfect at mattifying and blurring imperfections and have been using it daily.

There has been a huge amount of these blurring and priming products hitting the shelves lately and none have seemed to really work out for me until now, so if you are like me and haven't found a product to hit your priming spot then this gem is worth a try.

Nuxe is a French skin care brand which fairly recently hit the Australian shelves of Priceline, there has been quite a lot of only hype surrounding the brand so I was excited to try it out for myself.  If you are a lover of French skin care then you are probably already be a fan of Nuxe, and would have tried there cult favrouite Reve De Miel Lip Balm. The chic packaging and botanical ingredients were the first two things I was instantly drawn to, giving the brand a very natural aesthetic and vibe. 

Nirvanesque is the line of first defence anti-aging products from Nuxe aimed at the 30+  market, the products target the first signs of aging from 'expression lines' and if you are like me that is from a lot of laughing. The products are filled with super charged plant botanical ingredients like Mauve Root, Acmelia, Rose Muscat Oil. The packaging is all 100% recyclable and 61% lighter which is great for travelling.

Merviellance will be available from September in Australia as Nuxe's lastest release aimed towards women over the age of 40 with all skin types. The range is packed with dermal proteins to help skin which has already started aging due to time, photo and light damage. Combining the serum which gives skin an instant tightening feeling and lift packed with Hyaluronic Acid to plump skin and the Correcting Cream will help mature skin absorbs moisture and improve texture. I'll be passing these 2 products on to my Mum to test out, and might get her to do a little review on BG.....So stay tuned.

If you have been curious about trying French skin care products then Nuxe is a natural and eco-friendly brand to start with at any age.

This Works. Perfect Cleavage Review

This Works Perfect Cleavage For Neck and Chest $64.75 available from www.feelunique.com

Perfect Cleavage.....Really?!? Yes really. One of my completely superficial insecurities about ageing is my chest becoming wrinkly, sagging and awful sun spots coming up. Over summer there is always one day where you forget to apply sunscreen on your chest and being in Australia sunburn is a terribly painful and damaging experience that causes premature wrinkles and pigmentation. Perfect Cleavage contains Larch Extract, Vitamin Rich Algee, Tonka Bean and Frankincense which naturally plumps the skin and reduces the 'apparence' (the lines are still there, but the appearance of them is less) of fine lines.

I have been applying this morning and night to my chest, boobies and neck and I can honestly say this is an area of my body which I have neglected from moisturising for years and since starting to use Perfect Cleavage I have seen dramatic difference in the hydration of the area.

I feel my ageing insecurity is completely warranted living in a country where the sun is so damaging and harsh and although I was gifted this cream I would definitely spend the $64.75 on it again. The best defence against sun damage will always be sunscreen and staying out of the sun.

The best boobs in a film goes to Amanda Seyfried in Mean Girls predicting the weather with her chest bombs.
