Christmas Wishlist

The questions from family have started coming in on what I would like for Christmas. To be honest there is only a tiny amount I would like.

 

 

 

 

First up is a new camera, my beloved camera kind of broke while I was on holidays in May. Nothing major but the shutter is broke. I would love a proper camera like the ones photographers use or the new Samsung android one where you can take pictures and upload them straight away to the likes of Facebook and Twitter. It's not exactly cheap at €430 but a girl can dream.

 

 

Being a massive Cocoa Brown Fan, I can ever have enough in the house. I am loving this Cocoa Brown giftset that retails at €19.99 and has Tough Stuff, Chocolate Whip, One Hour Tan and Tanning Mitt plus it's pink and pretty!

 

 

 

I'm getting more and more into Paese cosmetics, already a big fan of their Matte Makeup Base, I would love to try a few more of their products. Everything in the range is under €15 and available from Cloud10Beauty

 

 

 

 

My makeup brushes are in an awful state, completely my own fault but I am feeling like binning them. That's a sure sign I want newbies and the Elite Collection (€105) from Nima Brush would be perfect in a purple cylinder

The Nima Mitt-Say Goodbye to Your Cleanser

I'm always on the lookout for alternatives to traditional cream cleansers, often opting for cleansing water or something like Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish. I would never have thought of a mitt that you could use with just water to thoroughly cleanse my skin.

However, that's exactly what I'm going to share with you. I was first introduced to the Nima Mitt at the Christmas blogger meetup. Niamh from Nima Brush attended to show us her gorgeous range of brushes and the innovative Nima Mitt. As Niamh, described the mitt, I got really excited by it and knew I wanted to try it. That day came this week when one arrived in my postbox.

The Nima Mitt is made up of teeny microfibres that are woven together. When dampened and massaged over the face, they break up the bound that locks makeup onto the skin.The mitt gently removes dead skin cells and makeup while also lightly exfoliating. No matter what skin type you are, (even sensitive skin) this mitt is sure to be a holy grail product.

I've been using the mitt for a week now and really like it. It is super soft and not harsh on my face at all. Every time I use it, my skin is left glowing, I have tried it in the morning where I am bare faced and in the evening to remove a full makeup. I was delighted to see that it handled brilliantly with a full makeup. To be thorough, I went over my face with some cleansing water and saw that the mitt had pretty much taken every bit of makeup off.

To clean the mitt, you need to use regular block soap and water to rinse away any residue. Then hang it by the loop to dry, Niamh recommends you don't use a washing machine as the chemicals present and the roughness of the machine can damage the microfibres.

This lovely can be found over at Nima Brush for €12.95 and will last along time once it is taken care of properly.
