Mio Double Buff

As part of my latest in beauty Dream box II box I received the Double Buff exfoliator.
I have to admit that I wasn't sure what I would think as I have never used an exfoliator which was purely an exfoliator before, my Soap & Glory cleanser had exfoliating beads in it, so I was wondering whether this would be too rough on my skin.
But below are my thoughts.

This is in rather simple packaging and is a good size at 50ml (full sized is 150ml and costs £23). 

It has both a manual as well as a chemical exfoliator in the product and the chemical exfoliation is performed by papaya and pineapple extracts and the manual exfoliation is performed by Pumice and micro Volcanic Lava with the face polisher being provided by Bamboo Stem extract.

The other ingredients also add to the good qualities in the product with Organic Shea butter moisturising the skin and while that ingredient moisturises the organic sweet almond oil helps to soothe and protect the skin.
Then the fig extract helps to balance the skin and keep it soft and supple.
So it is full of good ingredients and looking at their no nasties policy here makes me like the product even more.


The exfoliating particles within it are very small so it isn't too bitty but there are still enough to make it extremely effective. 
It leaves my skin feeling smooth and clean and did such a great job the first time that when I got some on my lip accidentally it left the lips feeling smoother than they had for a long while.

There is a definite scent of citrus from this product, I assume it is from their signature blend of oils that are added to their products, but it definitely isn't an  intrusive scent. It is revitalising and for me it attracts rather than repels me.

It definitely is a great product for me though as it seems that the double dose of exfoliation leaves my soft and smooth and ready for the next stage in my skin care routine.
A great product and I will buy a full sized product when it runs out but as a little goes a long way it won't be needed for a while.

    Love that they didn't add unnecessary potential irritants. Not bad at all! Seems pretty useful. Thanks for blogging up a review ;)

Love ME Beauty September (Beauteco) 2013 box menu One

Boxes cost £10 plus p and p of £2.95 monthly from  lovemebeauty.com . Received this box earlier in the month but was my favourite box in September by far. Matriskin collagen serum 7.5ml (sample size) worth approx £24.10 Detailed by Love ME beauty as a serum to both prevent and to cure various signs of aging. It has a purpose of filling and reducing wrinkles from the first application and removes expression lines in just 30 days. I love serums as a little goes a long way and this one is no different.  This one is a clear gel and feels nice when applied and is helping to fight off the wrinkles of this thirty one year old. Although per gram it is very expensive and would be too expensive for me to buy the full size version. Essential care Organic lip silk 4.5g (full size) £5.50 at  www.essential-care.co.uk Detailed as a 'tasty and nourishing blend of beeswax, Shea butter, coconut oil and orange essential oil to moisturise, repair and protect your lips i

Lovelula may 2014

Image
  I've recently signed up for a few boxes as I am looking at cancelling some again and this was one that I signed up for again after getting it a little while ago and deciding to try it again for three boxes and this is my first box of the three I prepaid for. This is my Lovelula May box that arrived this afternoon. So odd to see these leaflets again after a while away but definitely exciting. Eight samples in my box this month and although I have one sample (the lip and cheek stain) from a Birchbox I am really happy to see a few brands that I have never tried before and products I haven't tried as well as some goods that will be great to take on my holidays. So, what did I get? The first two items were from Fresh therapies and are two different types of samples of their natural nail varnish remover products. The first sample is a nourishing nail varnish wipe that is sufficient for 10 nails according to the packaging and the second sample is
