Guess who FeedSpot selected as their number one skincare blog?? β
β
It has been wonderful seeing everyone sharing their places on the various influencer and blogger lists recently released by FeedSpot, particularly as there are so many of my favourite people on them, so what a joy it was to see my blog take the number one spot on the skincare blog and website list, as well as slotting in at number three on the British beauty blogs list too! β
β
Thank you FeedSpot for the awesome commendation. Iβve linked to both lists in my bio if you fancy checking out all the other amazing creators xxβ

On the blog today, I share my thoughts on whether you need a DOT if you already have the iconic ZIIP HALO, with a comparison of both devices - I love them both as they have helped my skin so much, but do you need them both?

If itβs plump, clear and juicy skin youβre after, then Lancome has you covered - watch to the end to see what a difference this duo makes to my skin! β
β
(Unpaid ad - PR)β
β
Lancome have two exciting new launches, first of which is the RΓ©nergie C.R.x. Triple Serum Retinol, which contains three key ingredients - Vitamin C, retinol and peptides - all of which are housed in their own chambers within the bottle that combine when you pump out the product - such a clever design! β
β
The second bit of gorgeous newness is the H.P.N. UVMUNE SPF50 Cream, which blends a high SPF of 50 with a host of skin goodies such as peptides and niacinamide.β
β
Both products contain niacinamide, so unfortunately I canβt use them long-term which is a real shame, as look how gorgeous they are on the skin! I particularly love the formula of the sunscreen which gives the most amazing glow.β

π Both are available now via the direct link in my bio π β

π What happens when you apply seven full layers of the iconic Jumiso Snail Mucin 95 + Peptide Facial Essence?! π β
β
(Unpaid ad - PR) β
β
I am a religious user of the Jumiso Snail Mucin 95 + Peptide Facial Essence; I use it every single day without fail and I make sure I never, ever run out. I have little bottles for travel and big bottles for stock and it is probably my most used skincare product ever, because it is just such an amazing product for boosting hydration, particularly if you have problematic skin. It plays beautifully with other skincare, sits well under makeup and most of all, it actively promotes and encourages a healthy skin barrier. β
β
I use two pumps in the morning and three pumps at night and that I find more than sufficient, but what would happen if I kept applying it, over and over, for seven full layers?! It actually layered beautifully, leaving my skin looking and feeling soft and plump. β

π Spotty friends, Spotty Romans, spotty countrymen, lend me your ears: the ZIIP DOT has arrived and it is a gamechanger for us spotty types! π
(Unpaid ad - PR/aff.)
I am a MASSIVE fan of my ZIIP HALO as my skin really is the best it has been for a very long time and I know that a large part of that is down to consistently using my HALO, particularly when it comes to breakouts; so when they announced a device utilising the same technology as the HALO, but tailored specifically to tackling blemishes, I was very excited and thankfully it has not disappointed!
Today Iβm just sharing with you a little demo of how to use it, alongside a heads-up that there is a more detailed introduction on my blog if you fancy a read. Hereβs how you use the DOT to target a specific breakout:
1. Start with clean, dry skin and apply the included Clear Gel to the breakout
2. Turn on the device with a quick press on the power button (long press triggers the longer facial treatment) and line up the electrode behind the ZIIP logo with the breakout
3. Then you do the twist! Move the device clockwise and anticlockwise whilst maintaining contact from both electrodes
4. The first phase (microcurrent) of the treatment lasts 60 seconds then a beep lets you know that the second phase (nanocurrent) has begun which lasts for 30 seconds
5. The device will beep once the treatment is complete, so then you can clean the gel from both your face and the device - I like to use baby wipes
6. Crack on with your usual skincare routine and marvel at how quickly your spots clear!
π π Donβt forget that code SASCHAZIIP will get you 10% off everything on the ZIIP site, bringing the DOT down from Β£169 to Β£153. In my bio you will find a link to my in-depth review as well as a link to the DOT π π
