Lush enchanted eye cream review

Time for another review!

Lush will always have a special place in my heart. When I see a product of theirs that I have yet to try, I get quite thrilled. However, I do not love them blind. I will always give you my honest opinion.

I have mentioned this product before in some of my videos, the enchanted eye cream. It's made of lavender honey water, organic cold pressed almond oil as well as jojoba oil. Hydrating and soothing it helps keep your skin moisturised and firm.

The formula is very light, and can be used both morning and night. I applied it before bed every night, and under my eye primer whenever I did my makeup.

The result was that the makeup stayed on better, and my skin was left in a better state after removing it. It also helps against dark circles under the eyes. I am cursed with both dark and intense circles under my eyes, as I have very thin skin. However, in different to many other eye creams, this did not leave me puffy or oily!

The package is nice with a pump (talked about the benefits of this in a previous review on the mac cream) and lasts forever. I have used it frequently and the only reason I stopped was that the deadline date got the better of me. So for the price, you get a lot. And of course, since it's from lush it's totally cruelty free!

Falling for the hype

I have finally brought home a real technique brush! The brush I went for is the expert face brush. Cross my heart, I actually need a new foundation brush and it was on sale so I think that justify it.

I have yet to try it but I have high hopes, partly because of the hype. Although I had my eyes on it before. The hair is much shorter than on most of the foundation brushes I have tried and working as a makeup artist, I have tried a fair few.

The fact that it's made from synthetic hair was crucial for me. That it's designed by Youtubers is a plus according to me, self explained YouTube addict! The sisters of Jim Chapman did great and I will give my honest opinion and write more about it once I've tried it, even though I'm probably the last person on earth to try it.

Did you like this, or do you prefer the more natural looks I usually do?
