Clinique Turnaround Concentrate

Hello

Hooray for it being the weekend! I am meeting my friend for lunch today but thought I would do a quick post before I start getting ready.

Here we have the Turnaround Concentrate from Clinique:

This is described as an exfoliating serum designed to give a brighter, more even and radiant complexion.

Once you apply this you can feel it working straight away, my skin always feels baby soft after using. One of my (many) skincare issues is the texture of the skin on my forehead, it is quite uneven and can show through my makeup. So instead of just slapping more makeup on I use this to treat the problem.

I don't personally feel that it helps spots clear faster or anything like that it is just more for the luminosity that it brings to the skin. The lady at the counter said that you can apply a thicker layer before you go to sleep as an overnight mask if your skin is really troubled.

The Turnaround Concentrate is £33 for 30ml so quite expensive, I doubt I would repurchase because of the high price point.

Do you use any Clinique products? What do you recommend for a brighter complexion?

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo

Hello

Happy Friday eve ^.^

Today I will be talking about La Roche-Posay's Effaclar Duo:

 

I originally bought this after reading a blog post (I can't remember who's sorry!) as it is for "corrective and unclogging anti-imperfection care", which is just me all over really. Effaclar Duo is also 100% hypo-allergenic and non-comedogenic so is perfect for even the most sensitive of skin.

It smells like lemons and is quite lightweight and easily absorbed. Once applied to the skin it feels quite tingly which I like because I assume that it is working. I use this in an evening after cleansing and toning, but it does say that you can use morning as well if you feel so inclined. I can see an improvement after using this so I will continue to do so and will be repurchasing once my tube runs out. The price is £13 for 40ml but a little goes a long way.

Here is a picture of Karl chilling after eating a big tea! It's a hard life for him

Have you used anything from La Roche-Posay? Or anything for clogged skin with imperfections? Please leave any recommendations in the comments box as I am always on the hunt for new things :)
