My Review

I think this is a really nice sunscreen and I like how it applies more like skincare rather than a typical SPF. It has a really nice peachy tint, that’s completely invisible on my complexion, and it takes no work at all to blend in seamlessly.

It feels light and hydrating, and it isn’t overly dewy or greasy looking, which makes it a really good base for makeup. As far as I can tell, there’s zero white cast and this should work really well on a wide range of skin tones.

It gives the skin a really nice glow but it’s nothing over the top, which can sometimes be a downside of sunscreen with a high SPF. It sits nicely under makeup and I found that my foundation applied nicely on top of it, and didn’t slip and slide around.

The packaging looks really cute and comes in a dropper style bottle with a pipette. The only downside of this is that some of the formula drips around the neck of the bottle when you replace the dropper. While pipettes are fun for application, I generally don’t think they are that practical and I prefer the squeezy tube style packaging of the new sunscreen products from Ultra Violette and KOSAS. For more information on those read:

  • Kosas DreamBeam Comfy Smooth Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Review & Swatches
  • Ultra Violette Future Fluid SPF 50+ Superlight Mineral Skinscreen Review

All in all, I think this is a really nice high protection mineral sunscreen and I am very happy to keep it in my rotation.

Where to buy it

The Inde Wild Sunscreen Glow Drops SPF 50+ is £32 for 30ml. You can get 20% off via my code REALLYREESPH via the following link:

neom great day exfoliating hand wash review 2

NEOM just did a major upgrade to their hand care collection and not only is the product really gorgeous, they are making new strides in sustainability and recycling. Here’s what you need to know about the NEOM Great Day Exfoliating Hand Wash.

What is NEOM Great Day Exfoliating Hand Wash?

NEOM Great Day Exfoliating Hand Wash
NEOM Great Day Exfoliating Hand Wash
  • Gentle exfoliating handwash featuring 100% natural fragrances
  • Packaged in 100% recyclable bottle designed to be refilled and reused
  • Luxurious formula works to cleanse, soften, and replenish
  • Uses a blend of 7 essential oils, including wild mint and mandarin

Key Ingredients

Olive Stone Exfoliator – promotes smooth-looking skin

Perlite Scrub Particles – volcanic mineral that exfoliates and brightens the skin

Orange Peel – gently exfoliates and is naturally rich in antioxidants

Aloe Vera – to soothe the skin

My Review

I am a big fan of NEOM and I am always partial to an exfoliating handwash as not only do they make skin super smooth, I just think they go a bit further when it comes to actually making sure your hands are clean.

What’s especially nice about the NEOM Great Day Exfoliating Hand Wash is that the exfoliating beads are super smooth and gentle, so you get a thorough cleanse without feeling that it’s too much.

The Great Day scent is gorgeous. The mint and mandarin combo is really lovely – it fresh and bright and really motivating. The formula is nice and hydrating and doesn’t strip the skin at all, plus it leaves your skin beautifully fragrant.

The matching Hand Lotion is also lovely and is light enough to slap on and then get on with whatever you are doing. It sinks in really quickly, which is important for me because I spend a lot of time on my laptop.

The packaging is excellent. It is fully recyclable, including the actual pump, which is an industry first. Plus you can buy a big refill pouch* which is also recyclable. Brands have been doing refills for a while now, but often the pouch itself can’t be recycled. So this is another major win for NEOM.

And as well as being recyclable, the packaging also looks super chic, and they really are as lovely to look at as they are to use.

Another NEOM favourite of mine is their mini pod. For more info on that read: NEOM Wellbeing Pod Mini Waterless Essential Oil Diffuser Review.

Where to buy it

The NEOM Great Day Exfoliating Hand Wash is £25 and available now via the links below:

My Review of L’Oreal Paris Paradise Le Shadow Stick

L'Oreal Paris Paradise Le Shadow Stick Foiled Copper
Foiled Copper

Le Shadow Stick is a creamy eyeshadow crayon which has been designed to be super easy to use and nice and long lasting. I have been trying out a couple of the shades and have been pretty impressed.

First Impressions:

The packaging is sleek and practical, making it really easy to chuck in your makeup bag. It has a twist-up mechanism and you simply draw on the colour and then blend out.

Application and Texture:

The shadow sticks have a lovely creamy texture and the colour glides onto the skin effortlessly. You get a bit of play time to move and blend out the product before it sets down, although the sooner you blend, the easier it is to do.

The sticks use a water-based gel formula and it feels nice and cooling as you apply it which I really like. There’s a bit of glycerin in there, so that should help to keep the skin lightly hydrated.

If you are looking for a formula for eyelids with more skincare, check out my REESON Beauty Lid Elixir* or the ILIA shadow sticks (review and swatches here).

Performance and Longevity:

I have been really impressed with the staying power of Le Shadow Stick. The colours stay true throughout the day and there’s very minimal movement or creasing, even without primer and on my fairly oily lids.

Shade Range:

Magnetic Mauve

I really love the shade range and there isn’t a single colour I wouldn’t use. I think they are all so pretty! The ones I have tried so far are Magnetic Mauve and Foiled Copper and I love them both. Foiled Copper is excellent for a bit more of statement.

Some of the shades are more pigmented than others, as you will see from the swatches above. Choose shades like Ice Rose and Mezmerizing Gold if you prefer a sheerer finish.

The L’Oreal Paris Paradise Le Shadow Stick Eyeshadows are £9.99 each and available now via the links below:
