Radicals New Peptide Antioxidant Serum

Radical Skincare have introduced a new serum to there Skincare collection. The new Product is called advanced Peptide Antioxidant Serum. 

ABOUT, 
Radical say its a one stop serum for all skin types, all ages, all ethnic origins to fight 16 identified causes of age. The triple potency action of Trylacel Technology in a universal and multi tasking serum designed to achieve fast and visible results.

TRYLACEL Technology enables the maximum concentration of actives for maximum delivery to skin and all skin types.
This is the one I really like the sound of...It keeps maximum potency of antioxidants to deliver maximum performance results.

WHATS IN IT, It includes 13 carefully selected and individually tested ingredients and 2 hexa peptides. It includes 9 powerful antioxidants.

Apply day and night after cleansing and before moisturiser on face and neck. 30ml £125  at Space NK and QVC 

I was fortunate to receive this serum to try out about a week ago. It's the first time I used any Radical Skincare products. So I started using it 6 days ago. It has only been a few days so i can only talk about more immediate results. I will start of with saying my skin does like it. I so far have had no breakout. It absorbs really well and it does give a subtle radiance to skin on application. I have noticed in recent years that I have started getting tiny red broken veins on my cheeks prior to this my skin was even toned. Since using it I have noticed its not as sensitive to redness which is quite amazing considering I have only been using it 6 days. So on that basis I will continue to use it as I like to see Skincare products through to the end to get a true result of there performance.

Ideas for 'The Rather Dapper Chappy' In Your Life....

With Fathers Day just around the corner i thought it was a good idea to look at some lovely gifts that are affordable treats that are not necessarily what the men in our life's would go and treat themselves with there hard earned cash but all the same are lovely to receive as a Fathers Day Gift.

I've selected a few products from Penhaligons Blenheim range that are a good and affordable way of also introducing someone to Penhaligons and there range. Blenheim is one of there oldest creations as it was first introduced in 1902. It is a Citrus Aromatic fragrance that is crisp,clean that is quite light and fresh that doesn't evaporate on the skin like some light scented fragrances have the habit of doing. Worn by Winston Churchill and his father before him. It's rumoured that this fragrance is popular amongst certain royals too!

Penhaligons is steeped in history established by William Penhaligon who had a thriving business in Londons famous Turkish Baths situated between the houses of parliament and the gentlemans private clubs. Penhaligons clients were the great leaders in government at the time. In their honour he created his first fragrance in 1872 Hammon Bouquet which you can still be purchased today.

My Husband has been wearing Blenheim Bouquet on and off for a few years now so I've decided to get him the deodorant stick and bath and shower gel in the range for his Fathers Day pressie.(lets hope he doesnt read this) as he isn't one for body moisturisers! This will help layer and carry the scent longer throughout the day/evening. There products have great quality and standard of ingredients so not to dry out the skin. My Husband suffers from psoriasis and can use there grooming products.

Blenheim Bouquet Deodorant £14. Bath and Shower Gel £25. Shaving Cream £23 Fragrance £85




Barry M eyeshadow and blush palettes

I have just found a little gem well four actually. Eyeshadow and Blush palettes from www.barrym.com. You get a little treasure trove palette of six eyeshadows and a blush comes with a decent sized mirror and two sponge applicators for an amazing £6.49 Bargain right!

My fave two out of the range are 'Natural Glow' six natural hue shades with a pink blush. Second is 'Smokin Hot' comes in six smouldering eye shadows with a hot peach blush.
