LOOKFANTASTIC Advent Calendar 2020 | Unboxing - Day 7

This is the seventh day of my LookFantastic Beauty Advent Calendar for Christmas 2020 unboxing. Yesterday I unboxed the Philip Kingsley Elasticizer Therapies Mayan Vanilla & Orange Blossom Deep-Conditioning Treatment.
 
Today, I unboxed the REN Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic.

·        Salicin (BHA)

·        100% Recyclable Plastic Bottle
·        Vegan

MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS
I have heard of the brand before, but haven’t tried any of their products. I actually thought their products were more expensive than they actually are. The name REN just sounds boujee to me. This toner is recommended for daily use (morning/evening) after you have washed/cleansed your face. To apply it, you saturate a cotton pad and swipe across your clean face and neck (avoiding eye area). I already use a toner and I always choose a mist/spray product as it is easier and quicker to use. This REN product does interest me though. It also has a light lemon scent. I’m not overly interested in the promised glow, but some of the seven skin benefits are attractive to me so I will give this product a go once I’ve finished up my current one.
 
So far, I’ve noticed all of the products that I have unboxed from this calendar are red, pink or orange themed. I don’t know if this is on purpose. The little ribbon on the calendar that you use to pull open the door is pink and so is the base on the inside of the little numbered drawers, so I wonder if it is to tie that into the design.
 
You can purchase the REN Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Tonic for £27.00 ($37.00) from RenSkincare.com.

BECCA X Barbie Ferreira Prismatica Light Essentials Kit

I bought this set because the highlighters are mini and the packaging is purple. I have previously tried Champagne Pop (limited edition bronze glitter packaging) and I decluttered it last year. I remember not really getting the hype around it. I wanted to try the formula again in different shades and what is more perfect than minis for trying something out? The whole BECCA Prismatica Collection is in collaboration with Barbie Ferreira, who I believe is an American Actress/Model. I had never heard of her before and only looked her up for the purpose of this post. There was a Face Palette, Essentials Kit and Cheek Lip Duo Set. I believe the collection has now sold out, but the highlighters are still available as singles in the regular BECCA packaging. ABOUT THE PRODUCT The packaging is sleek, round and compact. The colour of the packaging for this collection is described as prismatic lilac. There is also a mini mirror inside the compact. This set originally retailed for £30.00 and it has...

Haul: Small Unmentioned Purchases

For today’s post I am going to share with you a few products that I have recently purchased and have not mentioned. I actually purchased one of the products last year but I thought I would include it anyway because I have not mentioned it before. The product I bought last year was from Asda and it is the Maybelline Color Tattoo 24 HR Cream/Gel Eyeshadow in Pink Gold . I bought it for £4.99 and I got it because I thought it was limited edition but as it turned out it is actually permanent. It is a gorgeous colour! Now for the products I have bought recently this year. The Urban Decay Oz: The Great and Powerful Theodora Palette  for £35 from BeautyBay.com. I have used this palette a few times and I really like it. From Superdrug I picked up a Maybelline theROCKET Volum’Express Mascara  in the shade Black because I was interested in trying it and I got it for £5.99 because it had a £2 off offer. From Home Bargains I picked up another can of the TRESemmé Extra Hold...

KALEIDOS Futurism VI: Lunar Lavender Palette

This is my second KALEIDOS palette and I bought it from the same Depop seller as last time. I also purchased the Futurism I: Sci-Fi Green and Futurism VII: Sashimi City Palettes, reviews on those will be coming soon. THE PACKAGING The packaging is a long thin rectangle shape and the concept reminds me of a wardrobe. There is a purple, pink and rose gold coral (the reef kind) and cloud theme all over the packaging. It has a magnetic closing and you open up the left side first and then the right side to reveal the circular eyeshadow pans and long thin mirror inside. The outside theme continues to the inside, but the colours are lilac, pink, peach and orange with rose gold. The eyeshadow names come printed on a plastic sheet. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get six 1.33g eyeshadows/pressed pigments in Matte (M), Duo-Chrome (DC) and Shimmer (S) finishes.   ·          Rich and Velvety Texture ·          Smo...
