Hey guys, I hope you all had an amazing weekend! Today I'm doing a review on this baby :








I wish I could get some Soap & Glory more easily in France, but this was actually a gift from a friend while she was in London. To my UK readers, I envy you so much! If everything goes right and that I move out to London next year, needless to say that I will definitely enjoy the perks of living there!

As you can see, this comes in a green and dark brown glass bottle, which is available in several sizes : 10ml, 30ml and 125ml (photo above is 30ml).

At first I was a little put off by the ingredients list, considering the first two were silicones. But it also contains Vitamin E, which prevents hair loss and promotes hair growth, macadamia and argan oil. It has a strong smell of santalwood and patchouli.

I've been applying this on dry hair just before going to sleep or after styling (you can also apply it on wet hair, but I find it difficult because I either put too much or not enough) and it made my hair SO sleek, soft and shiny, and also noticeably less frizzy. I was blown away. In my opinion, it does a better job than the Moroccan Oil, though it has the same thick consistency & amber color. Actually, the thickness counterbalances the expensive price because you only need a tiny amount so the bottle is probably going to last for a while.

So far, I'm actually very impressed and I'm definitely going to keep using it! I'm considering getting other products from the range as well.

It's now been 4 months since I got the Clarisonic Mia 2, so I think it's time for a review!

I got it with the standard brush head, which is for normal/sensitive skin types. It also came with a sample size Clarisonic 'Refreshing Gel Cleanser' which I didn't use, because I wanted to keep the same skin care regimen in order to see what difference the Mia 2 would make on its own. 

The first thing I noticed, as I said earlier, is how smooth my skin was after washing my face, but most importantly, how clean it felt! The great thing about the Mia 2 is that it does a really good job at removing all the dirt and makeup off your face thanks to the sonic system. I was actually looking forward to using it each night, it was like getting a little pamper session on a daily basis!



I was scared of the 'purging' phase, a.k.a. the phase where your skin takes a little bit of time to adjust to a new product and when all of the dirt and imperfections come out. I gotta say I did go through it, but it didn't last longer than a week at most. My moisturizer and makeup became a billion times easier to apply, and my skin was noticeably improving after just a couple of weeks of usage. Of course, I have a good skin care routine (which I might do a post about later on), but it wasn't working on its own, and the Mia 2 played a huge part in getting rid of all of my hormonal acne. 

For those who might be afraid of using a cleansing brush for the first time, may I reassure you by telling you that it is not harsh on the skin at all. I sometimes switch up the speed when I want to cleanse my skin even more thoroughly, but it still remains gentle. You can also buy different brush heads depending on your skin type.

To sum up, The Clarisonic saved my skin. If you haven't tried it yet, you totally should, it's definitely worth the price!
