Lavender Love With Green Angel

In my last post on Green Angel (here) I viewed Green Angel in a very different light, Why? Well I never heard of this luxury skin care brand, but after I did I noticed that they where everywhere, even the boy did which says a lot!!!

I am a huge fan of these guys, firstly because they are Irish but secondly because they are affordable for such a luxury skin care that is use in spa's, yes spa's! Not only this but they have a few awards under there belt, such as the Image Beauty Awards which these guys won in 2009 and 2011.

The guys from Green Angel sent me two products to take a look at.

Firstly the eye gel

Now this is in the plus range so its designed for those of us with older skin, but no harm in preventing! Putting the ant-ageing to one side it is very good at getting rid of puffiness and I did put this product to the ultimate test with a flue and mix of ridiculously late nights. From my experience with buying some eye creams you don't get that much, but with this it is here to last the long haul!

You really do get your moneys worth! Like I said in my last post on these guys I love the packaging, its very elegant and you would be proud to show it off on your dresser.

Price €19.95 and it can be bought on line or though one of there stockists.

Hand Cream

The second product that the lovely people form Green Angel sent was the Hand Cream. I have to say I was a bit apprehensive at first. I am convinced that most hand creams dry my hands out and I end up lathering more of the product on. With this product it was not the case, I put it on in the morning and that was it, sorted for the rest of the day, no need for a top up! (well unless I wash the dishes)

I am amazed by this product but for me what makes this product even more amazing is that lavender oil is one of the ingredients, for those who know me I am obsessed with lavender I even cook with it! Now I did think the packaging was a bit odd at first for a hand cream, but as you only need to use it once a day there is no need to carry it around.

Price €19.95 and it can be bought on line or though one of there stockists.

The BIG question, Would I repurchase?

Yes I defiantly would, the products work and for the price you pay, you really do get your moneys worth.

Have you tried Green Angel? What did you think of it?

Homemade makeup remover

Ever come home from a night out and just think f**k it and crawl into bed?
I do it all the time, well I try not to but I cant help it.

I have found a quick solution to this!!
It even removes stubborn mascara!

Olive Oil

I know what your thinking, doesn't that clog up pores, well ladies it dose not! Because the molecules in olive oil are so large they cant clog up your prose.

So this is what I do.
I lather my face in this goodness and pop some on a cotton wool , I leave the oil to do its magic for a bit and then wipe away all of that icky make up. I then wash my face with cold water to make sure I get rid of the oil.
For the eye make up, using the cotton wool with olive oil on it I just place it on my eye lid for a second to make sure the oil gets a chance to brake down the make up.

You may have to repeat the eye area just to make sure all the mascara is gone, and you wake up panda eye free the next day!

So what do you think? Would you give this a try? Or have you tried this before?

My new years resolution a month on

Hello Lovelies,

How is everyone doing on the new years resolution front? I haven't seen a post on an update on anyone's blog so I am literally dyeing for an update. So of you are in a blogging stump do an update pretty please.

If you missed what my resolution is you can read it here and why I chose to do this.

OK so its not exactly ambitious but my thinking was because it is so small and simple I will have a higher chance of sticking to it and gradually turning it into a routine.

So how did I do on my first new years resolution in over a decade?

Quite well, there are times when I just didn't bother and trying to do it at night time is the tricky thing, I think I need to do it before I get too tired and lazy to do it. Hopefully I will get it into a routine by March.
