About me

General : I have very dry, ageing skin, with a few wrinkles, so would love to try any product that will help me overcome this problem. I absolutely love products with a high fragrance; but if it’s lightly perfumed/has no perfume, I’m fine with that too, as long as it helps with the skin type I have. Skin Colour: Olive skinned, so love bright colours and love to experiment with various shades and colours Eyes: I go for really bright colours and love to try anything new on the market. Foundation Colour : Golden Amber . Prefer dewey, illuminating, long lasting and due to dark circles, puffiness, dull skin tone and skin scarring, I tend to go for a full/heavy coverage. BB Cream : Anti-ageing Lipsticks: Any dark, rich colours. Love deep purples, reds, orange. No pinks or light colours. Nail type: Strong; but sometimes tend to be brittle. Nail colour- All dark, rich colours. No pinks or light colours, when my nails are long; but when I cut my nails, I go for pinks, white, neutral colours, light brown. Hands/Body: Need creams for dry sensitive skin. Hair: Strong, curly, going grey. Dull, lifeless and frizzy due to colouring.

I was very pleased to trial the new Q10 Power Anti-Age Multi-Action Pampering Oil for 60+ Skin. As always, Nivea delivered the goods, by producing an excellent product, contained in its usual signature packaging, which sets it apart from all other skin care products presently on the market. Nivea has always been a popular, trusted brand, has lasted the years and many of us remember our mothers and grandmothers using; but due to Nivea’s new and improved formulas, we still continue to use these products. Thank you Nivea, for your new innovative formulas and products. Although Q10 Power Anti-Age Multi-Action Pampering Oil for 60+ has been advertised as being for Mature Skin, it falls short of this claim, in as much as it is only suitable for combination/dry skin. However; the Q10 Power Anti-Age Multi-Action Pampering Oil for 60+ Skin, does an excellent job for protecting combination/dry skin from the elements, adding moisture to the skin and acting as a smooth, flawless base for one’s foundation and can be used under makeup or on its own. Unfortunately, I have exceptionally dry, thirsty skin and the weather in the part of Australia where I live, is extremely dry. I found that the Q10 Power Anti-Age Multi-Action Pampering Oil for 60+ Skin, did nothing at all to add hydration or moisture to my skin and I still felt my skin to be dry and tight, it sadly did not tick all the boxes for me and it left me feeling a bit disappointed and let down.

Tastes fantastic! I bought a bottle of this product and noticed an improvement in my skin with the few times I took the gummies. I then decided to buy two more bottles. I'm in my 70's and noticed a very marked improvement in my skin. I didn't have very deep wrinkles to start with; but since taking this product, the line on my face seem less noticeable Only problem , if one can call it a problem, is the fact that one's tempted to take more than the recommended dosage of three a day!

Thank you Beauty Heaven for giving me the opportunity to trial this beautiful product by Nivea! Nivea has been around for many, many years and has become a product which a lot of us have grown up with. Although, Nivea has grown in popularity, it has always been available at a most affordable price. Nivea has updated the look of its packaging,by getting rid of the previously known blue and white packaging and replacing it with the modern rose gold and white. The Serum has a gorgeous, light perfume and glideson, without pulling and stretching your skin and does not contain any ingredients that would harm your skin. Serum - How to Use: Cleanse your face and neck. Then apply Serum to your face and neck. The Serum is easily absorbed by your skin and forms the perfect base for your Nivea Hyaluron Cellular Filler Elasticity & Re-Densifying Day Cream SPF-15, which should be used over this Serum. As I have extremely dry skin and have always been disappointed with other products I have used in the past, I was very excited to see the amazing change iny skin after using the Serum and Day Cream on a daily basis, for a month. My skin looks more dewey, soft and hydrated and my wrinkles have noticeably diminished. Thanks to Nivea!

This procuct really exceded all my expectations and i am so thankful to Beauty Heaven, that I was among those lucky enough to be selected to trial the Hyaluron Cellular Elasticity & Filler Elasticity & Re-Densifying Day Cream SPF-15. Nivea has really come a long way, by completely getting rid of the old fashioned blue and white packaging and replacing it with the more modern, rose gold and white, which gives the product the look of a truly expensive product; but is still at an affordable price! Day Cream - Method of use: After cleansing your face and neck, apply the Hyaluron Cellular Filler Elasticity & Re-Densifying Anti-Spot Treatment Serum. Next, apply the Day Cream to your face and neck. The Serum must be applied under the Day Cream. These two products or the Serum and the Day Cream can also be applied to your hands to remove wrinkles and age spots. Remember, your hands are a sure give for your age! The Day Cream has a beautiful, light perfume,which is certainly not overpowering and the product does not contain any ingredients that could harm your skin. My skin is extremely dry and no matter what procucts I have used in the past, none of them seem to have had any affect on my skin. However, by using the Serum and Day Cream, for approximately a month, my skin has become soft, smooth and has a gorgeous dewey sheen. In addition, my wrinkles seem to have noticeably diminished, making me look so much younger product really exceeded all my expectations.

Elizabeth Arden products are usually highly rated and show visible signs of improvement on one's skin, after the first few used. However, in this case, Elizabeth Arden seems to have been truly lacking! PREVAGE Progressive Renewal Treatment failed miserably in meeting my expectations. True, the product came beautifully packaged, as one has come to expect from this cosmetic house. There were four bottles enclosed. There were clear and concise instructions on exactly how to use the product and how long one had to use the contents of each bottle and what period of time the treatment went for. Nothing was left to chance. The four bottles with the contents for each week's use, had a very clever designed cap, one just depresses the cap to release the contents, which falls into the serum already in the bottle. The, all one has to do, is shake the bottle until the contents are well mixed, remove the cap, insert the dropper provided, take a dropper full as instructed and apply to the face. Easy, no spillage, no mess, no fuss, no wastage of an expensive product. So far so good. The only let down was, the product did not work for me at all, even on the lines that were not feel at all. Sadly, on this occasion, Elizabeth Arden did not meet my expectations. Very disconcerting, as I've always loved and trusted Elizabeth Arden.

I waited patiently to receive my Maybelline Total Temptation Shadow + Highlight Palette, which took an unusually long time to arrive; but after a few e-mails to Beautyheaven; it did arrive! I suppose, as the saying goes "Better late than never"! The item comes well packaged, in a pink, tamper-proof packaging, which is very sensible, as it prevents the spread of eye infections. Like the packaging, the container is a delicious ice-cream pink, with black in the front and pink as well as white writing. A good advertisement for the Maybelline brand which almost always, lives up to its excellent reputation! This product appealed to me immensely, as it only consist of s ten beautiful colours in total, which make up the warm and cool colours of the palette. There are not only the warm peachy/brown/gold tones, which are always a firm favourite of mine; but also the cool lilac/mauve tones lilac plus the darker black colour. The shadows are interchangeable, which is really very handy and although the warm gold tones are my absolute favourites, the cool tones have a much better shimmer and make a bold statement if one is going out at night. The lighter, cool shimmering colours being applied to any part of the face or anywhere one would like to highlight, as the shimmery glittery particles catch the light in a most attractive way. . Having tested the product, I can honestly say, that it went on extremely smoothly, with no effort at all, as the shadows are of a beautiful creamy, powdery, silky consistency and are very easy to apply. The palette colours are truly versatile, as some of the colours, besides being used as eyeshadows, can also be used for highlighting and contouring the face. In this instance, Maybelline has truly excelled and the palette is a real must for anyone who wants a lightweight, beauty product, which not only looks good; but is also extremely versatile. The only drawbacks are there is no applicator; therefore, one would have to carry a few applicators and there is no mirror, which would have made an great product an excellent one. I truly cannot make up my mind whether I like the warm and or the cool palette more. They both have serve different purposes and perform very well.

I waited patiently to receive my Maybelline Total Temptation Mascara, which took an unusually long time to arrive; but after a few e-mails to Beautyheaven; it did arrive! I suppose, as the saying goes "Better late than never"! The item comes well packaged, in a pink, tamper-proof packaging, which is very sensible, as it prevents the spread of eye infections. Like the packaging, the container is a delicious ice-cream pink, with black as well as grey writing. A good advertisement for the Maybelline brand which almost always, lives up to its excellent reputation! The Maybelline Total Temptation Brow Definer Pencil comes in four shades - Blonde, Deep Brown, Medium Brown and Soft Brown and I chose Deep Brown to trial, which suited my darker skin colouring. Having used the product, I can honestly say, that it went on extremely smoothly, with no effort at all, and did not require the dragging and pulling that one has to resort to, with some of the other eyebrow pencils on the market. The mechanical brow pencil extends and retracts with absolutely no effort at all, making it really effortless to fill in, define and shape the eyebrows; especially if one has really sparse eyebrows. At the bottom end, there is an eyebrow spoolie brush, which is used to soften and blend the colour for a natural, streak free finish. With regard to staying power, it certainly lasted the day, without the need for reapplication. Would I recommend the product? Yes. In my opinion, it is one of the best eyebrow pencils I have used. An excellent product at an excellent price.

I waited patiently to receive my Maybelline Total Temptation Mascara, which took an unusually long time to arrive; but after a few e-mails to Beautyheaven; it did arrive! I suppose, as the saying goes "Better late than never"! The item comes well packaged, in a pink, tamper-proof packaging, which is very sensible, as it prevents the spread of eye infections. Like the packaging, the container is a delicious ice-cream pink, with black in the front and pink as well as white writing. A good advertisement for the Maybelline brand which almost always, lives up to its excellent reputation! The Maybelline Total Temptation Mascara comes in three shades - Blackest Black, Very Black and Brownish Black and I chose Blackest Black to trial. The mascara is advertised as ".....Creamy and whipped formula specially infused with coconut extract .....". Having used the product, I can honestly say, it went on extremely smoothly and was free from the lumps and clumps of a lot of mascaras. The advertisement further states"......Total Temptation Volumizing Mascara will help you create soft, separated and dense lashes for full bold buildable volume....". And ".......Buildable volumizing mascara is designed to coat and separate your lashes for dense soft and full volume......". Exactly how many coats does one have to apply on ones lashes, to achieve a suitably long, thick lenth? For most people, it is "two coats and out the door"; especially for busy girls or busy mums. Anything more is just a waste of time and effort and money. Although the colour is described as "Blackest Black", it certainly was not dark enough for me. On me, it looked brownish black; so needless to say, I was not happy with the colour. With regard to staying power, it did not last the distance and by early afternoon, I had limp, unsightly lashes, with no sign of mascara. Would I recommend the product? Yes, it would be suitable to anyone who did not like a heavy look in mascara; but it certainly was not for me. However, it is an excellent budget mascara at a budget price.

I was truly surprised and thrilled to receive a sample of the “Burt’s Bees Tinted Lip Balm”. Thanks so much BH As the winter months have really taken their toll, leaving my lips dry and chapped, plus the fact that, as I suffer from hay fever, my lips tend to dry out more than usual, I was truly pleased to get this lip balm to try and like all the other Burt’s Bees products, it certainly delivered! I could not wait to try it on my lips and was pleasantly surprised at the beautiful hydrating feel of the product, which soothed my sore lips and had great staying power on the lips and lasted longer than other lip balms available on the market. In addition, while other products tend to drag and pull on the lips, Burt’s Bees Tinted Lip Balm containing soft flower waxes, moisture-rich shea butter and vitamin E went on smoothly and left my lips feeling hydrated and soft The lip balm comes in a beautiful black tube with a coloured top and is easy to apply, as it is in a swivel up tube. In addition, the packaging makes it difficult for the product to be tampered with The colour I received was “Hibiscus”, which although it looks dark in the tube, adds just a mere hint of colour, which is ideal for achieving that “No makeup look”! As I am certainly not partial to the “No makeup look”, the colour was too light for me; but was fine for when I wasn’t wearing makeup. However, I did apply it over my lipstick and found that it still had hydrating properties and made my lips feel nourished and soft, but did not change the colour o my lipstick, which I found to be really great! The lip balm is available in six shades beautiful colours - Red Dahlia, Rose, Hibiscus, Pink Blossom, Sweet Violet and Zinnia Burt’s Bees can be used at any time of the year, as it is nourished the lips and prevents the awful feeling of having died chapped lips The only drawback is the price and although the product is highly commendable, there are so many other lip balms on the market; but hopefully, this lip balm will last a long time!
