Today’s post is about Odylique by Essential Care: An Organic, Fair Trade & Cruelty-Free Brand. Included are the Ultra-Rich Balm, Superfruit Concentrate and Advocado 24 hour replenishing cream. Since it’s been a while, it’s time to share my thoughts on them.

…If you follow my blog you may have seen my November beauty haul in which I talk about my returning love for beauty products after a crazy 2020, don’t you all agree? In October I got the REVOLUTION X DC Batman Palette & Highlighter and I can’t wait to share my thoughts with you about them both! I even managed to make a reel with these. Wooo.
The highlighter and eyeshadow palette is only a small part of the Revolution DC collection. They have different products such as eyeshadow palettes, lipgloss and even makeup brushes from characters such as Batman, the Joker and of course Harley Quinn.
The DC collection is rather large so instead of buying everything I decided to get two products that stood out for me. The ones which stood out to me were; ‘I am the Batman’ eyeshadow palette and the ‘Bat Light’ Highlighter. Revolution Beauty is a cruelty-free, vegan and affordable brand.
This was the first item I chose, I chose it because it’s embossed with the batman logo…Oh dear, I can’t hold it in, ‘I am the Batman’ sorry lol, old habits after watching batman cartoons as a kid. The highlighter is pressed gold in colour, which is just stunning. I would say it has a little bit of sparkle to it but nothing overboard.
Mica, Talc, Paraffinum Liquidum (Mineral Oil, Huile Minerale), Magnesium Stearate, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Polybutene, Polyethylene, Dimethicone, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Tin Oxide, CI 77891 (Titanium Dioxide), CI 77491 (Iron Oxides).
Between both of the batman eyeshadow palettes, this one stood out for me much more. I love that it has a mix of mattes and shimmers to work with. They compliment each other perfectly. I think the matte nudes and shimmers work perfectly with the batman theme.
Check out the list on their site. It’s far too long to post on here.
The prices start at £6 and are the most expensive item is £22. The highlighter is £6 and the eyeshadow palette is £8.
For the price point, I think they are both wonderful. The eyeshadow palette creates some stunning looks with little effort, the colours stand out and it’s stunning. As for the highlighter, that is just gorgeous too, creating beautiful shimmers in different light and settings, I am very glad I chose both of these.
Now I am not going to say they are perfect because they are not. First point the names of the shades are on a plastic sheet, rather than on the palette itself. Another point I would say is they both are very crumbly, the designs on the palette and highlighter disappear very quickly.

I feel a little bit late to the party reviewing this celebrity/blogger favourite Egyptian Magic. I couldn’t wait to give it a try.
Ever since I was a child I have loved all things from ancient Egypt such as fashion, hieroglyphs and of course the pyramids. This cream is inspired by ancient Egyptian favourite products which are ingredients like Olive Oil, Beeswax, Honey, Bee Pollen, Royal Jelly, Bee Propolis and Divine Love.
My skin type is a combination but most of the time it’s normal depending on hormones etc. But saying that I like to use something more natural and got a bit of history to it, so it sold it to me from that respect. This multi-purpose balm is 100% natural and cruelty-free.
Over the past few years, period care products have improved so much. They are much more planet-friendly options such as moon cups and products like this which are biodegradable. I have been looking for a brand that offers a subscription that delivers cruelty-free, vegan-friendly, and planet-friendly options. I believe I have found a wonderful option with the Flo Period Subscription box!
Here we Flo are a period subscription box that offers various products, including pads, tampons, or a mixture of both. On their website, they also offer other products like bladder care products and also condoms.
A cheeky combo pack of 15 bamboo pads: 10 Day + 5 Night. ‘Day’ pads are 240 mm + great for light to medium flows. ‘Night’ pads are 280 mm + perfect for heavier flows. With compostable wrappers!
From Flo Website
I love that you can have it as a subscription service or a one-off. I got the one-off version so I could give it a try before committing to the service. Postage is free.
For some reason, I don’t get along with tampons so I got a mixed box of pads which are the day and night pads. My order came within 5 days of my ordering which is impressive and great if you know your cycle. They are no need to wait around because the parcel fits through the letterbox, result!
I really love that these are biodegradable pads and made with soft organic bamboo. I have to be honest with you all, these didn’t work so well for me as one packet of these is simply not enough (10 days and 5-night pads) I had to buy more pads at the shop as I have a heavy flow, especially the first few days.
At £4.99 each buying another box isn’t an option for me as £10 is a little too much for me. I did find them comfy but not 100% leakproof every time.

Until next time

…AD-Gifted – Temple Spa My Kinda Skin Combination Skin Essentials
Skincare is one of my favourite self-care things to do in the day. As I have gotten older, I have noticed my skin needs a bit more TLC so it’s important to get my skincare routine right. I want my routine to be right so my skin looks good through the years and adapts through age.
I was excited when Temple Spa asked me to try some products from their range. Since my skin is a combination I got the Temple Spa My Kinda Skin Combination Skin Essentials. The collection has everything I need to start my day. They also have other skincare products in the range including products for sensitive, oily and dry skin and even a mix and match option.
