Filorga Sleep Recover anti-fatigue night balm

This is another one of those products that I’d like to sing the praises of (only this time it won’t be off-key). Where do I begin? It applies like a dream, it is smooth and glides on your skin and is absorbed super quickly. It is completely non-comodegenic and I haven’t experienced a single breakout because of it (which always pushes up a products rating in my book). Your skin completely drinks this product in and I could see immediate results. My skin instantly felt smoother and looked more taught and as it’s meant to be used beneath your night cream; it enhanced the application of my other skin care products. It’s almost like a primer for skin care, haha. As I’m using a range that targets dark spots (thanks acne) this product has really helped speed up the process. My skin looks brighter and more radiant and is softer to the touch. The discoloration beneath my eyes has also diminished and when I wake up in the morning, my skin isn’t puffy. I don’t have any “tired lines” so I can’t comment on that but this product has definitely helped my skin in other areas.It smells like a fruit basket and is totally yummy! I’m really thrilled. With ingredients like silk tree extract, horse chestnut extract and something called DERM SRC, it has a whole host of skin loving goodies to reduce inflammation, brighten and tighten the face. If you need help with puffiness, a tired appearance or general skin aging, this product is for you.

Nivea firming Body Oil

I’m always sceptical about oils. I’ve never liked using them on my body and no matter how little oil I would use in the past, it always made me feel way too greasy, gross and in need of another shower so imagine my happy surprise when this turned out to be different. This is a “dry” oil and I suppose it’s because Avocado Oil is quite light in texture, so this is great news if you’re like me and seriously dislike using any oil on your body because oils generally being quite “heavy” to use. Reading the box and seeing “Use at least twice a day” I thought to myself “What?” Let’s be real, I’m sure there are very few of us out there who have the ability to use body oil thrice a day. I’m not really sure who’s going to be at the office only to skip out of a meeting to go and strip off in the bathroom to apply body oil. This seems a tad unrealistic. Never the less, by twice daily usage (and at times, even less) I saw some good results. My skin has been firmer, healthier looking and has a beautiful glow. It even feels softer to the touch and since winter has come to the Cape in a mad way, this body oil has been a welcome addition to my night-time routine (and when I can manage it first thing in the morning). If I combine it with proper diet and exercise, the results would be even better. I'm pretty impressed and happy with the results and it's definitely a product I would recommend especially to those who are starting to feel the effects of gravity ;)
