on the eighteenth day of advent... ciate vs. youbeauty



On the eighteenth day of advent my Ciate advent calendar gave to me:


A 5ml sample of varnish in the shade 'amazing gracie'. This a beautiful nude pink colour and would be a great base coat for nail art. Although, it would be nude on me as I am pale it would also be great to showcase a tan or darker skin.


On the eighteenth day of advent my youbeauty advent calendar gave to me:


A 15ml tube of Dr. Lipp original nipple balm for lips. I have two small samples of this and I really enjoying using them, although I wasn't sure about this product at first as it had a strange waxy texture. But if anything, now I really like that about it now as it sits over my MeMeMe lip stain really nicely as it isn't sticky on your lips, which isn't pleasant, and it sinks in and moisturises them nicely and seals in the lip stain to give it a lot longer wear.
I really like this and it has a price of £11.50 for this size which is great value.

Boxes cost £10 plus p and p of £2.95 monthly from  lovemebeauty.com . Received this box earlier in the month but was my favourite box in September by far. Matriskin collagen serum 7.5ml (sample size) worth approx £24.10 Detailed by Love ME beauty as a serum to both prevent and to cure various signs of aging. It has a purpose of filling and reducing wrinkles from the first application and removes expression lines in just 30 days. I love serums as a little goes a long way and this one is no different.  This one is a clear gel and feels nice when applied and is helping to fight off the wrinkles of this thirty one year old. Although per gram it is very expensive and would be too expensive for me to buy the full size version. Essential care Organic lip silk 4.5g (full size) £5.50 at  www.essential-care.co.uk Detailed as a 'tasty and nourishing blend of beeswax, Shea butter, coconut oil and orange essential oil to moisturise, repair and protect your lips i

I missed out on the September box from lookfantastic so when the October one came up for sale I couldn't say no as it gave great value with the first and was full of great products. Although this one was good I haven't rushed out to preorder november, who don't have a sub for these and can buy when you want, and not sure I will be getting it.
