Memoirs of My Journey to Make-Up Perfection

Hi everyone!

I'm coming at you with a review on Rimmel's new face primer called Fix and Perfect.

I give it 3.5 stars out of 5.

Price: $6.00 + HST (Ontario Tax)

Pros: It smooths and prep's my face very nicely. It mattifiies my face and reduces the sight of pores and blemishes. It gives me a nice velvety finish all day. The price is great at $6.00 which mean's it's very affordable

Cons: I have oily skin and I found at times that it really struggled to mattify my skin.

But I would buy it again for the price and for the fact that it gave my face a nice velvety finish throughout the day. For that I really can't complain at all. I use the MAC finishing powder to help mattify my face and of course blotting papers. But I will continue to be on the look out for the perfect primer!

My next review will be on Hard Candy's 1000 Lashes :)

Talk to all later

Hello Dolls!

I'm back with another product review.

I want to talk about MSM and how its many benefits to a  woman's body!
Firstly, what is MSM?

MSM is beneficial Sulpher based compound found in every living organisim. In it's purest form it is white in appearance and not yellow like everyone might imagine sulpher to be. It can be found on ocean floors, rain water,and all living things. It has the same toxicity as water. It can be safely ingested into the body as long as you follow the directions on the bottle.

MSM is beneficial as a detox agent, it benefits your skin, nails, hair, and can also be used for pain management or chronic illness though I highly recommend you consult a doctor if you are going to use it for pain management or chronic illness.

When I first started MSM I experienced a common side effect, slight headaches. But that was because I had to build up to it. I take 1000mg in 2  pills per day. But in the beginning I had to take 1000 mg and slowly build up to it.

MSM Benefits

- Reduces wrinkles
- Promotes healthy hair, skin and nails
- Has excellent anti-aging properties in women (ladies, buy it!)
- Supports healthy immune system function
- Assist the liver in producing Cholin which enhances many bodily functions including insulin production, metabolism of carbohydrates as well as other functions
- Relieves pain and inflammation and detoxifies
- Among many other benefits

MSM is available in pill form, lotion and powder. Many people have reaped a lot of benefits from the dissolving the powder in water and taking it that way. I might do that soon but right now I am on the pill format. In terms of the lotion there is one youtuber (I can't remember her name) who has achieved a lot of success with using the lotion to alleviate her eczema. This is her personal experience but given MSM's wound healing and skin restoring properties it doesn't surprise me.

My Review

When I used MSM 2 years ago it brightened my skin and gave me a nice glow. It also helped eliminate my dark spots and increased cell turnover. My hair grew, my nails grew and I no longer had chronic pain (I had hurt my knew previously). I felt great and I looked good; my hair and skin were strong and glowing.

Have you tried MSM? What were your results? Let me know lovelies!!

Talk to you soon. My next review will be on Rimmel London's Fix & Perfect Pro Primer. :)
