Palmers Cocoa Butter Shimmer Oil

I was so lucky to get a chance to test the new Palmers Cocoa Butter Shimmer oil by Superdrug. 💖


Kindly gifted by Superdrug

✨ This shimmer oil is branded in a way that would instantly catch your eye and looks like a good quality shimmer oil. However, I was slightly underwhelmed by this shimmer oil.

✨ At first pump, the oil looks like a luxurious, glittery gold liquid. The consistency is slightly thick, and it has the gorgeous, recognisable Palmers Cocoa Butter fragrance, which everyone loves.

✨ It has a very practical twist on and off the lid with a nozzle which controls the amount of product that comes out. The size of the bottle is very practical, too. It comes in a 150ml bottle, which is the perfect size to place in a small handbag and carry around with you. 👜

✨ The initial shimmer is stunning. The gold shimmer is very sparkly, and the oil adds a beautiful glow on top. However, this wears off very quickly. Because the oil absorbs so quickly into your skin, the glow doesn't last long at all. This is lost within minutes 😔

✨ The shimmer pieces are also slightly too big, and because of this, a lot of sparkle seems to come off very quickly. It would have benefited from finer glitter. The gold sparkle only stayed on my skin for around an hour; then, it just looked like the residue from glitter decorations on my skin. 😶

✨ This is a good shimmer oil if you want the shimmer gone as soon as possible, but for me, the shimmer and glow didn't last long enough, and this was disappointing 😔

👍 The Good:
🤍 Very absorbent
🤍 Non-greasy
🤍 Gorgeous fragrant
🤍 You get the glowy, sparkly skin

👎 The bad:
🤍 It loses shimmer, glow and radiance far too quickly.

Max Factor Miracle Pure Lip Enhancer Conditioning Tinted Balm. - 030 Sweet Cherry 🍒 060 Acai Haze Sweet Cherry gifted by Superdrug and Acia Haze purchased Sweet Cherry 🍒I love tinted lip-balms, so I was very excited to try this one out. This is a very good lip balm. The formula is very smooth and it doesn't feel greasy or sticky in any way. 🍒 It comes in a long, skinny 12ml tube with a white twist-off cap. Aprox 12cm long and 2cm wide. The size of the lip balm is almost as long as my palm, which makes it stand out from all others and makes it harder to lose it. 🍒 The packaging also makes it stand out and feel like a premium product. The tube is very smooth, and the gold banner and gold text add a subtle, elegant and luxurious feel. 🍒The balm applicator is very different from all other lip balms. It is clear and has a slight curve, which makes it very easy and comfortable when applying because it moulds to the contours of your lips. 🍒 The tube is soft and firm, maki...

Let me just start of by saying I was given this three set bundle to test and review by Superdrug for an honest opinion as part of the Superdrug Customer Community. The affordable three step daily routine for every beauty enthusiast.  Lets Start of with the Optimum Peptide Day Cream My first thoughts on the appearance based on the packaging was that it looked like a premium skincare brand. I liked the embossed branding and it made the product stand out. 💚 The cream comes in a very durable 50ml glass jar and a green plastic, slightly shiny twist-able lid. 💚 It is fragrance-free and the texture is very smooth and silky, I would describe it as a little thicker than a lotion. It has a slight yellow tint to it which makes it different from the night cream so there is no confusion. 💕 💚 In the first use of the day cream, I instantly saw a difference in the appearance of my skin texture. It felt so much more smoother and softer. The softness lasted all day and I could still fe...
