Benefit's Puff Off!

Argh I LOVE a Benefit product launch!

I love a Benefit launch even more when the product is EXACTLY what I need in my life right now, so Puff Off!, I am sooooo happy to see you!

This ridiculously cute new product is designed to reduce puffiness and creases around the eye area, offering a satiny smooth look instead.

My tired eyes have never needed this more, but in typical Benefit style, they’ve not just made a fab product, they’ve created an iconic looking one too!

HOW cute is their ‘custom Ironing tip’! 

This gorgeous little mini-iron cools the eye area on contact, helping reduce puffiness as the tip smoothes and glides the product onto your skin

 A peptide blend helps to reduce the look of puff while light diffusing particles help to smooth away the appearance of fine lines.

The product itself is a delicate pink in colour and beautifully  light and silky in texture. Applied before your make up, I found it worked as a pretty great base.

While ‘cooling’ applicators are nothing new (most are in the form of rollerballs) they do work wonderfully well to help cool and sooth the skin and Puff OFF Is no different, but it is a lot cooler looking that’s for sure, 'scuse the pun!

While I can’t say that it made a big difference to the appearance of my fine lines, I will certainly  sing its praises for calming my puffy eye bags!

Well done Benefit, you’ve done it again guys! A super cute product that not only looks fabulous, but works too!

Bravo!

Benefit’s Puff Off is available to buy from 31^st January and will cost £22.50.

Clinique Anti Blemish Solutions Clinical Clearing Gel

One of the biggest problems I have with my sensitive skin is dealing with a pimple breakout.

 So many products out there are too strong for my skin and leave it a sore shade of red, feeling burnt and generally looking a lot worse than the original break out did.

Not good.

I’m lucky that when I do get a break out, nine times out of ten its just one or two localised spots, not a whole face full, so really I only want to target that specific area.

I thought I’d tried every spot treatment out there until someone pointed out to me that one of my fave brands actually had one.

How had I missed that!

Clinique’s Anti Blemish Solutions Clinical Clearing Gel is a daily treatment which is designed to help reduce blemishes and promote healing while simultaneously working to help prevent new breakouts occurring.

It has a unique 4 in 1 clearing complex which works in the following way;

Anti-Blemish: Salicylic Acid clears away dead surface cells that clog pores to help resolve and prevent breakouts.

Control-oil: Laminaria Saccharina helps normalise the excess production of oil.

Non-irritating: Sea Whip Extract calms and soothes skin and helps reduce surface redness.

Exfoliate: Salicylic Acid promotes healthy cell turnover.

I approached the product with caution, applying only a very thin layer onto the offending bump, just in case my skin reacted badly to the product.

The gel itself is light in texture and dried really quickly, leaving almost an invisible barrier on my skin.

I didn’t experience any horrible side-effects  such as burning or stinging and come the morning my bump was definitely smaller in size and much less red. Result.

I’ve tried several spot gels and by far this is the best thanks to its light texture- others often feel like you’re wearing a face mask and come morning have peeled off on your face, not pretty!

A little goes a long way with this bad boy, even if you were to use it on your skin as a preventative measure rather than just a localised breakout, so I’d say its pretty good value for money.

You can grab your Clinique Anti Blemish Solutions Clinical Clearing Gel online, in Boots and various department stores and can grab a 15ml for £14 or 30ml for £20.
