1. QMS Lift o Firm for body. As a huge stark raving fanatic of the QMS range, this variant has lived up to the company’s promise of incredibly well conditioned skin. I also LOVE its orange blossom scent – fresh and clean, unlike most firming creams which are quite sticky and can sometimes have a chemical smell. I’ll pretty much use anything QMS produces – I’m a total fangirl.
2. Optiphi Cleanser and Revitalising Protector. A new product, and also a locally made one (I see they won a big prize recently – a Proudly South African Homegrown Award - well done, they definitely deserve it) I’d never heard of them. But the cleanser is wonderfully mild and this product, while having a sunblock, is also light and easily absorbed – for that I love it. It’s also non-greasy, unlike many products with sunblock in, but super moisturising – been a lifesaver this winter! Two beautifully manicured thumbs up.
Check out the OptiPhi facebook page.
3. Elizabeth Arden Sunstick. Perfect for keeping in your bag and slapping on your face when you’re in the sun unexpectedly. And it’s base is 8-hour cream, so it’s perfect for lips or even small scars which tend to get darker in the sun. Great size, great product. Get it at Suttafords or Edgars or pretty much anywhere there’s an Arden counter.
4. Elizabeth Arden’s Spring ‘In Bloom’ colours. Light and pretty and bright and lovely! And such gorgeous packaging. I do so love a dash of teal eyeshadow in the springtime, especially when you’ve done your first layer of self-tan. More about self-tan products coming soon!
