Lush bubblegum lip scrub

Wow this is a lovely little product. I've always had a problem with dry lips and no balms and moisturisers have ever really done it for me, I found this little beauty last year, the colour first drew me to it, it's so vibrant and colourful and just looked like a bit of fun. It's an exfoliating scrub  for your lips and i use it pretty much everyday, it's made from caster sugar which isn't just a great (gentle) scrub but it's also a sweet taste! It also includes jojoba oil which helps moisturise the lips without it leaving a greasy feeling. It's great to use before applying any lip product and I really do think it works plus it tastes incredible just like bubblegum! It's pretty cheap and cheerful think it was only £5 so definitely worth the price tag. One down side which i find with a lot of lush products is that they go out of date quite quickly I've had it for about 5 months and a lot of the scrub has hardened quite a bit but heyho it's still a great product! 

Alpha H Liquid Gold - Worth The Hype?

Alpha H Liquid Gold has been bobbling round the beauty world for a while now, and ive heard nothing but great things about it, so a few months ago i took the plunge and picked up a bottle myself. And to be fair im not disappointed, i can see why people love this product and i most definitely think its worth the hype.

What is Alpha H Liquid Gold? 

Alpha H Liquid Gold 200ml Beautybay.com

Alpha H Liquid Gold is nothing like ive ever used before, its an overnight resurfacing and firming face treatment for diminishing wrinkles pigmentation and sun damage. it is enriched with silk protein, licorice extract and Glycolic acid. The treatment is meant to jump start your metabolism in your skin for a brighter, clearer complexion. its very simple to apply, you use a cotton pad after you've completely cleansed and toned your skin and just swipe the treatment over face and neck. because of the Glycolic acid it can only be used every other night so say 3, 4 times a week. for this product to work at its best ability dont use a night cream after applying, just leave it to work its magic. Glycolic acid does sound a bit scary but in small amounts its fine to use on the skin. When Glycolic acid is used on the skin it works as a exfoliant, it goes under the damaged layers of skin and demolishes the 'cement' which holds the skin to the surface, this then chemically burns off the dead skin for a brighter clearer complexion.

I have combination and sensitive skin and it didn't irritate my skin at all. when i first started using it it did give a slight burning sensation but after a few times of using it this completely stopped. the feeling when using this product is a strange one, your face feels very tingly and quite tight.  the great thing about Alpha H Liquid Gold is that you see results instantly. the next day my skin looked completely different, because i have sensitive skin i have quite bad pigmentation, a lot of red patches, this seemed to clear that completely. my skin just looked so much brighter and more plumped. ive been using this product religiously for the past few months and i have truly seen a difference. id say this product would work wonders on all skin types, ive read plenty of reviews about it from a wide range of people with all different skin types and most have said lovely things about it.

it is slightly on the pricy side, but i 100% think its worth it. it comes in two different sizes, 100ml for £31.50 and 200ml for £44.95. i got mine from Beautybay.com and i would definitely reccomend their website it came very quickly, well packaged and i got a few freebie samples.
