Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist

When I wrote a post on facial mists I mentioned I wanted to try the Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist.

I tried it when I went to M&S one day and fell in love with it, just before I got round to buying it I won it in a Jurlique competition and so here it is featured on BeautySwot.com

Rosewater Balancing Mist

Jurlique say

A light, hydrating mist rich in Rose Essential Oil and powerful botanicals to refresh and enliven skin and senses.

This light, hydrating mist with precious Rose Essential Oil is designed to improve skin tone, moisture levels and skin balance. Marshmallow and Aloe help to hydrate skin's surface. Skin feels hydrated, refreshed and dewy.

Ingredients 

Marshmallow and Glycerin help prevent moisture loss and intensely hydrate and soften the skin.
Rose and Aloe Vera soften, soothe and calm the skin.
Grapefruit Seed provides antioxidant protection.

To use - Lightly mist onto face or mist into hands and gently press onto the skin.

My thoughts 

I am a massive lover of rose products and scents and so the idea of this facial mist was hugely appealing. It doesn't disappoint. The scent is just like rosewater, beautifully fragrant. The spray is perfect for spraying a light mist. It smells so good and skin feels refreshed, cooled and dewy.

I apply after cleansing and through the day for lovely and soft instantly hydrated skin. It doesn't interfere with makeup and actually helps set it.

This is the perfect Summer companion and would be excellent kept in the fridge for extra cooling benefit.

I thought I would love it and I do.

Jurlique Herbal Recovery Eye Cream Review

Another product review from the items that I won in the Jurlique photo competition and this time I have fallen in love with the eye cream.

Regular readers will know that a key beauty staple for me is a hydrating eye cream as years of suffering from Hay Fever have taken their toll.

Jurlique say 

A high performance antioxidant eye cream, features powerful botanicals and plant oils to help improve skin firmness, provide long-lasting moisturisation and help reduce the appearance of fine lines while intense brightening properties help to fade dark circles and puffiness. Skin feels firm, smooth, hydrated and looks luminous.

The Benefits:

Helps to replenish and brighten the delicate eye area.
Helps improve firmness around the eye area.
Helps to minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Helps provide hydration and protection from environmental aggressors.

Key Ingredients:

Arnica extract helps to soothe skin while Eyebright extract helps reduce the appearance of puffiness and brightens skin around the eye area.
Cucumber extract helps to refresh skin and Safflower Oleosomes are known to help improve skin suppleness and smoothness while providing long-lasting moisturisation.
Native Australian Flower Extracts are rich in antioxidants to help provide protection from environmental damage.

My thoughts 

I absolutely love this eye cream, I have been using it for only a few days so far but it is so good that I am hoping for excellent results with continued use.

The first thing that hit me was its most wonderful and calming herbal scent. It is a joy to the senses but adds to the experience. The cream itself is really light and absorbs fast. The eye area feels soft and hydrated and looks brighter and smoother.

This eye cream makes a real difference to my eyes, I wake up with dry, lined under eyes and this does the trick nicely to make them look more youthful.

My only niggle is that the hole on the tube is quite wide and so I have to be really careful not to squeeze out too much product!

Jurlique Intense Recovery Mask

I was lucky enough to win a photo competition run by Jurlique which meant that I was sent a box of lovely goodies from them. Needless to say I set to work trying out the products almost instantly but it will take me time to work through all of them.

However, the first product I picked up was the Jurlique Intense Recovery Mask ( my goodies arrived on a Friday and for me Friday is face mask day!) and it was love at first try.

Jurlique say 

A natural clay revitalising and restorative treatment mask with antioxidant ingredients to remove skin impurities to help soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while protecting against environmental damage.

The Benefits
Moisturises and hydrates to revitalise and rebalance the skin
Helps provide protection from environmental aggressors.
Helps absorb skin impurities to help purify and balance the skin.
Helps soften the appearance of fine lines.

Key IngredientsGreen Clay helps absorb impurities and rebalance oiliness.
Green Tea, Grape Seed, Turmeric and Ascorbic Acid are rich in antioxidants helping to protect skin from environmental aggressors.
Aloe Vera, Carrot Root Extract and Rose Hip Oil hydrates skin to help rebalance dryness.
Vitamin E (Tocopherol) and Retinyl A Palmitate help reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles.

My thoughts 

Easily squeezed out of the tube, the product comes out as a murky, sludgy green shade. It is so smooth to apply it feels like silk on the skin. It soothes and calms with its scent, a beautiful and relaxing scent that is a treat for the senses and just reinforces the feeling that this mask is doing good things. I also find it to be cooling to my skin.

To use - Apply an even layer and sit and relax for 10 minutes (well that is what I do..)

It dries to a muddy shade, but doesn't feel overly tight. Remove with warm, damp pads.

Afterwards skin looks smoothed and calmed, fine lines are blurred. Skin feels super soft and skin is bright.

I don't find anything at all to dislike about this mask. This will be a weekly treat.

*At the moment I have psoriasis on my face and this does not irritate it in the slightest.
