All you need to know: New Elemis Pro-Collagen Neck & Décolleté Balm

The neck and décolleté area is different to the skin on the face and can be one of the first places to show signs of ageing so its really important to treat this area well and Elemis have launched a new product for this area; the Pro Collagen Neck and Décolleté Balm £49 50ml

This product has a powerful list of ingredients including; Sea Buckthorn oil which is one of the richest known plant sources of fatty acid Omega-7, marine algae Padina Pavonica to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, Tree Fern extract to firm and Chlorella Vulgaris to increase skin elasticity and smoothness. 

And there are clinical trials to back up the powerful results you will get from this product; "In just 28 days the neck and décolleté appear plumper, smoother, softer and more youthful*" (*Independent Clinical Trial 2015)

I found this product's texture slightly different to other Elemis products, its absorbs into the skin quickly and you can almost feel it firming the area, it leaves the skin feeling very nourished and hydrated. 

To apply this product you should use upward sweeping movements and then just leave to dry, this image shows exactly where you should apply the product:

After application apply your normal day or night cream and you can just take the excess over the neck area or you could apply the Pro Collagen Lifting Neck and Bust Treatment to really go to town on the anti ageing!

Review: New Bare Minerals Bare Skin Additions!

Bare Minerals have launched a brand new product and some additional shades to an existing range, both in the Bare Skin range! Here's a bit more info on both.

BareSkin Complete Coverage Serum Concealer £22

This is a full coverage concealer but with a serum lightweight texture, which is exactly what I'm always on the look out for when on the hunt for an under-eye concealer. The first time I used this product I actually applied way too much the coverage is that good it requires a lot less product than I'm used to!

This product also boasts high definition mineral optics to counteract dark circles and discolouration and humectants (ingredient designed to prevent moisture loss) which will nourish the under eye area. 

I personally really like this product and its my new must have product for under eye concealing, I didn't find this as good for breakouts but would work well on areas/patches of redness or discolouration. 

Its available in a great colour range too, with 6 shades, fair, light, medium, golden medium, tan and dark/deep  (shown below in that order).

BareSkin Perfecting Veil £22

Another new addition from Bare Minerals is 2 new shades to the BareSkin Perfecting Veil, originally there were 2 shades, 'light to medium' and 'tan to dark', but now there also 'medium' and 'dark to deep', meaning 4 shades so something for all. 

BareSkin Perfecting Veil is a weightless finishing powder, formulated with light-reflecting optics to help diffuse the look or appearance of fine lines, Lilac Plant Stems Cells and Vitamin C to help brighten your skin and a special blend of minerals to absorb excess oil and balance skin texture, so all round a great setting powder to apply over your foundation or for touch ups throughout the day. 

If you don't use a finishing/setting powder over the top of your foundation I really think your missing a trick, it makes it last longer and look flawless and even if you have a drier skin, choosing one like this perfecting veil from Bare Minerals means there are actual skincare ingredients in the powder to ensure it doesn't look cakey or dry. 

Both these products are available online at www.wishlistbeauty.com with 20% off until the end of feb 2016 using promo code "love20"
