Clinique naturally gentle eye makeup remover

Everyday we put make up on and every evening we take our make up off, which isn't always as easy as putting the make up on. I have been a wipe kind of girl for a long time, but then I started to look through the products that I have and saw that I have a lot of make up remover to go through. So I starter with the "Clinique naturally gentle eye makeup remover".

 

I have been using this for quiet a while now,  and the thing is I have always used wipes and then washed my face afterwards and used my skin routine. While I have been using it I haven't used wipes, but then I had to stay over a night and I only had wipes with me and right there in that bathroom in Copenhagen I realized how easy it is to use a creamy eye makeup remover. I had to hold the wipe against my eye to make the mascara come more workable and I normally don't have problems with that when I use the "Clinique naturally gentle eye makeup remover". 

It's a white creamy consistency and it does have a smell to it, but it is not an overwhelming smell, and it doesn't feel like its a strong perfumed product that you are about to place on your eyes. It is allergy tested and its 100% perfume free, which I have always loved about Clinique's products. 

This is what Clinique themselves says about this product: 

"Clinique's gentlest eye makeup remover. Rich, creamy lotion spreads evenly, quickly. Effectively removes all signs of makeup without leaving an oily after-feel. As gentle to the eyes as tears. For all skin types. Ophthalmologist Tested. Appropriate for contact lens wearers.""

The way that I use it is I apply a small amount on each eye lid and then I slowly and softly rub on my lids without pulling and making sure that I get all of my mascara soften so I can swipe it away with a cotton ball, then when I think it is ready to get off I swipe it off. Sometimes I haven't found my cotton ball before I applied it so I have to open my eyes to get one, and that can sting a little bit, but nothing that really hurts, and my make up gets off so easily I don't have to pull or anything just swipe a cotton ball over my lids and then the make up is removed. 

I love using this because it is so easy and it doesn't leave a oily feeling afterwards which I think is really nice. I would buy this product again, because it is so easy to work with and it does really work, I have tried with coats and coats of mascara and eye liner, and everything has easily come off with this make up remover, so it is worth the money, but on the other hand I'm sure that you can find another good make up remover that is a lot cheaper, since this product is $18. 

I have another Clinique make up remover that I need to try out and I can't wait after the good results that I have gotten with this one, the down side is that it is only a eye make up remover, but sometimes if I have left overs on my fingers I rub it on my skin to get my foundation of, but with the purpose this product has it works perfectly. 

Enjoy your day! :) 

Esteé Lauder Ideal Light Brush-on Illuminator

So Illuminator is a big hit right now and everybody is trying to find the perfect one for them, doesn't matter if it is a high end or a drugstore one. Now I was so lucky to get a Esteé Lauder Ideal Ligh Brush-on Illuminator, which  I couldn't wait to try out. 

When I started using this highligter/ concealer, then I honestly didn't like it at all. I felt like it was way to oily/ greasy feeling, which I didn't like, but I know that you have to use a product for some time before you can really decide if you like it or not.  I kept on using it, which I'm really happy about. 

Mine is in 02 light medium which is a little bit too dark for me if it has to work as an Illuminator, but even though the color is a tat too dark it still brightens up my skin and I love using it under my eyes, because even though is starts out a bit greasy then when you work it into your skin then it is like it disappears along your dark circles and your puffy eyes. I use this every morning  under my eyes and then I use another concealer to cover my blemishes. 

I have to say that the packing is made perfectly and it screams high end because it is so timeless and just looks good. The product that is on the inside is good, but I don't know if I would spend $26.50 (235 kr) on it, when you can find a drugstore Illuminator that works just as well.

Also since this isn't really the perfect color for me so it doesn't really give me the glowing effect that this  product should, but I would love to try it on it the soft pink color they have, because I think that it would give the perfect glow to the skin.

I'm not sure I would spend my money on this one, I might look around and find some other products that I would like more, but if I ever got to try it in a different color that suited me better then I would like that, because I like the texture of the product it self, since it doesn't feel heavy on the skin and it doesn't sit in your fine lines around your eyes, it simply disapears into your skin and covers what it should cover. 



As You can see on the picture it is a brush that you apply your product with, you twist the end and then the product comes out of the brush, a really simple. I like the way it work and I don't think that there comes too much product out, which is nice. 

I will use this up before I start on another product, because as I have mentioned a lot then the only thing that I am not so keen on is the color, but the product itself is really good. 

I hope you all have a good day :)
