This time it's a cleansing water, and with this new addition the only product that they're missing now is a cleansing oil that I hope isn't too far away~ Cleansing waters are an essential part of my AM routine since they save a lot of time and are a far less messy ordeal than properly cleansing my face. This latest release boasts the following: Claims - Naturally derived mild cleansing water infused with tea tree leaf water and oil made in Korea - Refreshing & calming effect on tired skin while mildly cleansing - Revitalises irritated, stressed-out skin with ...

I confess, I am terrible with body cleansing. I'm the type to jump in the shower, douse myself with water and cleanse only my face. The rest of my body however, goes unloved by the saintly textures of a cleanser due to pure laziness, so this is a review opportunity I was excited for because a) it's Benton, they make great shiz and b) now I was forced to up my hygiene standards. Claims A natural soap for both body and face. It's made with a vegetable oil base and various botanical ingredients which enable moisturising cleansing. The BF bar helps blemished skin by removing dead skin cells and excessive sebum. It is suitable for dry skin because of its moisturising vegetable oil base and its other ingredients make it suitable for sensitive skin. Packaging  I don't understand the themes of Benton packaging, it all sort of keeps changing up. The style of this reminds me of a treasure map with the yellowed edges. Anyway, the soap comes in plastic packaging a...

Benton has a new muse and it's... papaya! Papaya has been the inspiration behind their latest sunscreen duo. The first one that came out was the Papaya-D Sun Cream for daily wear and was SPF 38/PA+++, whereas the one that I have received is their latest release, the Papaya-S Sun Cream SPF 50+/PA++++ for sports use. Disclaimer:  This product was provided by Benton for review purposes however this does not affect  my opinion of the item. One of the conditions for receiving the product was that I needed to review it within 7 days, so if you're interested, I posted a first impressions video of the product. I'm still getting a feel for making videos, because I find I don't always cover all the points I wanted to whereas with blogging at least I can keep going back and editing before it posts. So why papaya? Benton was inspired by Christopher Columbus, the explorer who called papaya 'the fruit of the angel's'. Papaya contains polyphenols (an...

Disclaimer: I received this product from Benton in exchange for a review however this does not affect my opinion of the product. I'm super thankful to brands and companies that hold competitions for product reviewers. It means small, shabby potatoes like me can save a few bucks and still indulge in the experience of testing out a new item whee~ Benton is one such brand to pay attention to, and not just because they hold giveaways haha. They're cruelty free and produce affordable products with great ingredients. I've used their Snailbee Essence before and loved it because it's the first product I've used that clearly reduces my redness. Needless to say, I was very excited to have the opportunity to try out their latest creation. Claims - Lightweight texture - Suitable for Summer - Moist finish - Water-oil balance - Mild formula 'Benton’s Cacao Moist and Mild Cream is a lightweight cream made of healthy ingredients. Having a light texture, e...

What does my skincare routine have in common with uni textbooks? They're both updated frequently and are outdated by the time they're in print, and they take generous bites out of my bank account. By the time I post this at least two of these items will have become empties, so I figured they should get their time in the spotlight before they step off their pedestal. 1. Skinfood Black Sugar Cleansing Oil (Oil Cleanse) I've never met an ineffective oil cleanser, and this one by Skinfood is no exception. It has some obvious slip to it and so doesn't feel thick and viscious. It emulsifies my makeup quickly and gently, and leaves my skin feeling conditioned after rinsing. The only product that it takes longer to scrub off are lip tint products, but that's why companies invented tint remover right? Cleasning oil in action. The most stubborn of the swatches would be that massive pink stain there belonging to a Tonymoly tint. The rub and rinse. The ...
