DHC : Deep Cleansing Oil, CoQ10 Lotion & Q10 Moisturising Cream

DHC's Deep Cleansing Oil, which I've wanted to try for a while now is "on sale" for £18.00 (saving you £3.50) There are a few other discounted products on DHC's website, including the CoQ10 Lotion (reduced from £29.50 to £22.00) and Q10 Cream (reduced from £39.00 to 29.00) which look good for dry skin. I didn't really need to, but I've bought the lotion and moisturiser too ... because my toner is half-empty and ... Who am I kidding. I don't need excuses for my obsession!

If you spend over £50, you'll receive £10 off your order and new customers get a 10% discount ^-^
The sale ends on the 28th February, so hurry!

I went ahead and ordered:
- Omega 3 Optimum Skin Serum Oil (hoping this doesn't stink of fish oil)
- ClearCalm 3 Clarifying Clay Cleanser

And probably should have ordered the Clarifying Toning Lotion...
The offer expires on 31st January, so theres still time to order! Hmm...

Sale Favourites

Just one of the many deals to be found at this time of the year: a Pink Clarisonic Plus - reduced from £284.00 to £142.00 at Space.NK

Ole Henriksen Blackcurrant Complexion Oil - £23 reduced from £46 at Harvey Nichols (in store). Great for dry skin!








For the best bargains, head to Harrods. The OB x Shu Uemura and Lancome x Alber Ebaz collections were hugely discounted, so now's the time to get them if you missed out. Theres also make-up palettes, brushes, value sets, giant sized cleansers and toners, false eyelashes ... Just be prepared to brave the chaos! I picked up:
Set of two Lancome Hypnose Mascaras - £16

Guerlain by Emilio Pucci Terra Azzurra Bronzer & Blush - £25, reduced from £50
Guerlain Terra Ora Sculpting Powder - £22.50, reduced from £45. You can also get this at John Lewis thanks to their price match ;)
Guerlain Gloss d'Enfer in "Madame Flirte" - £11, reduced from £22

I absolutely LOVE Guerlain, and I was so happy to find all these gems on sale! Seriously it could have started raining Haribos and I still don't think I'd have been as excited.

I plan on writing reviews of these products soon - y'know, about a hundred years after everyone else - which might be doubly irrelevant because they're mainly discontinued or limited edition.

...

But hey at least I'm letting you know that you can get them before they're completely gone! You can still get them online on sites like feelunique.com :3

If you have a penchant for limited edition and discontinued stuff, check out TK Maxx. I hope I'm not the last person on this earth to discover that they sell cosmetics. I saw a Korres mascara for something like £5, also OPI nail varnishes, Clarins face powders, Rimmel lipsticks - the stock is so random but it's worth a look. You can pick up huge bottles of Argan oil cheaply - if I was more trusting of unheard-of brands I would so buy it.

Celine

p.s.: In an effort to keep this here blogge relevant to the year 2014, swatches of a few lipsticks from MAC's new Huggable Collection are coming soon. Gotta love the limited editions.

Offer Alert: 3 for 2 on Elemis

Feelunique have a rather nice 3 for 2 offer going for Elemis. How I wish I had seen this before I splashed out on the Pro Collagen range for my Mommy this Christmas ... I could have gotten a free Marine Cream darn it! Debenhams "VAT free" prices really pales in comparison >.< Sigh.
I just hope it's a reputable website, because I'm off to order the range for myself now! :)

Celine

p.s./ Check out their Advent Calendar offers - a different treat every day. Today's is £5 off orders over £40.

Cult Beauty "Best of 2013" Free Gift Offer

Cult Beauty has a rather nice offer going now - a “Best of 2013” goody bag, yours when you spend £75.

Enter the code “BEST13” at checkout to take advantage of the free gift offer.

I’ve tried to minimise boring copypasta by throwing in a few useless comments here and there and I’ve calculated the value of the gift, and lets face it, thats what we really want to know! ^-^ 

The Good Bag contains:

Jouer Matte Moisture Tints (2 x 2.3ml - in nude & hazel) - A matte tinted moisturiser for a dewy-matte finish.

Value: £2.76 

Sunday Riley Good Genes (10ml) - Cult Beauty describes this as "skin utopia in a bottle". Nice. Good Genes is a serum which smooths, refines, clarifies and brightens whilst improving skin's thickness & elasticity.

I’ve heard good things about Sunday Riley serums and this is a great opportunity to try it out. Don’t let the small size put you off - I’ve had tiny 1ml serums from Decleor last a month!

Value: £28.30 (Holy smokes batman!) 

Anastasia Beverly Hills Clear Brow Gel (2.5ml) - An industry favourite for neat brows. Quite a decent size too (compared to the full size of 8ml).

Value: £5.15 

Alpha H Liquid Gold (5ml) - A serum designed to tackle hyper-pigmentation, acne, fine lines and large pores, reversing some of the symptoms of ageing and sun damage. That's a lot of claims! Just how does one go about “tackling large pores”? Don't buy into that, you can't. That aside, from what I’ve read great things about this serum.

Value: £1.58 

Glamglow Youthmud (5ml) - a mud mask.

Value: £2.50 

DJV Fibrewig (full size) - Fibre mascaras are super popular in Japan for giving you a false lash effect. Fairy Drops and Fibrewig are some of the top names - I didn't even know Fibrewig was available in the UK until I saw it listed here! Woo hoo!

Value: £18 (Full size product. Another high five batman!) 

Omorovicza Deep Cleansing Mask (5ml) - a cleansing mask.

Sidenote: this cleansing mask is currently £39 (usually £57) on Omorovicza’s website.

Value: £5.70 

Eve Lom Cleanser (5ml) & muslin cloth - Very, very popular cleanser. If the mineral oil content doesn’t put you off (as it does me), you’ll like it.

Value: £2.75 

Tammy Fender Antioxidant Crème Neroli & Orange (2ml) - a nourishing anti-oxidant cream.

Value: £1.29 

Tata Harper Replenishing Nutrient Complex (3ml) - from reading the ingredients, this sounds lovely - rosehip, jojoba, carrot seed oil … Anti-oxidants galore. Yummy.

Value: £10.80 

Total value of the gift: £80 

I was initially put off when I saw what looked like a bunch of tiny sized samples thrown together as a gift (some of which you can get for free), but the serums and full sized mascara make this pretty decent!

Happy shopping!
