The Dew Drop Foundation

Hidden inside its extremely minimalistic designed bottle is a light-to-medium coverage foundation. Extra-light on the skin, its formula creates a beautiful dewy, hydrating finish, ideal for achieving that no makeup/makeup look.

Surratt Dew Drop Foundation is the ideal size to fit into your makeup bag and allows you to keep your products away from bacteria. The foundation's unique delivery system helps you consistently perform your perfect coverage. Available in 20 shades ranging from fair to deep chocolate, there's a shade for everyone.

How to use it?

Some previous users found the foundation a little complicated, so here is your guide to a quick and easy foundation application.

Depress the dropper to release the foundation. 1-2 measured drops should cover the whole face but can be built up if needed.

Apply the foundation in the centre of the face and, using a brush, blend it out. If you don't already have a brush, you can purchase Surratt's Artistique Foundation Brush. With a stiffer bristle, it makes the application a much easier process.

While applying your first layer of foundation, the dew drop dispenser will be refilled and ready.

Brush or fingers?

When applying your foundation, it all comes down to the result you want to achieve. Here are a few reasons to prefer using a brush to apply your makeup:

• Higher coverage: When using a brush, the product layers the skin equally, resulting in better coverage.
• Time saver: Using a brush will save you from getting your hands dirty and cleaning them repeatedly.
• Hygiene: Using a brush is much more hygienic.

My Review

After recently finishing my foundation, I was looking for a more natural finish to my skin. With summer coming up, I wanted a fresh, dewy glow and no more cakey, thick foundations.

The Dew Drop foundation is fun to use and looks beautiful. The foundation is lightweight yet long-lasting, perfect for oily combination skin types. I applied their foundation using a brush, and my skin was flawlessly corrected. It didn't budge all day long, even in my greasier zones. Dew Drop is exceptionally comfortable to wear and blends out in seconds. For my medium skin with golden undertones, shade 9 suits my skin perfectly.

One thing that I would modify is the dispenser. The drop release system helps you save wasted products, but it can be frustrating for those who want higher coverage. If you rush in the morning, you may have better choices. However, I am happy with it.

Surratt Dew Drop Foundation is excellent and gives the skin a natural dewy finish. It works great with my other branded products, and I will continue using it for the summer and look forward to discovering more from Surratt.

Henné Organics Illumine Face Oil is a powerful blend of natural ingredients that work together to soften, smooth, and brighten the skin. With ingredients like Baobab, borage seed, and sea buckthorn oil, this face oil is packed with antioxidants and essential fatty acids that combat the signs of aging and promote healthy skin.

Henné Organics Lip Mask is an excellent product for the relief it brings to dry and chapped lips. The 0.5 oz mask is enriched with powerful ingredients like sea buckthorn, evening primrose, avocado, rosehip, pomegranate, and cranberry seed oils that are highly effective in moisturizing and hydrating the delicate skin on the lips. I experienced a noticeable improvement in the texture and softness of my lips after using the mask just once.

What I love about this lip mask is that it provides a smooth, buttery base that applies easily and feels surprisingly calming on the lips. It's perfect for use before bed or during the day when your lips need a little extra TLC.

Lip Balm

I have used the Luxury Lip Balm by Henne. I can confidently recommend it to anyone seeking a luxurious and effective lip care solution due to its highly nourishing and hydrating effects.

This lip balm contains 99% organic oils and butter, including coconut, avocado, shea, cacao, and jojoba, which provide deep hydration and nourishment to dry and chapped lips. After using the balm, I noticed a significant improvement in the texture and softness of my lips.

I like how portable this lip balm is as it makes it easy to use when travelling. While having a luxury feel, the product lacks the ingredients that can cause sticky buildup.

Saying that –, I was absolutely blown away by the TriPollar STOP Vx device. Sure, it’s expensive. But take it from me – it’s worth it! It utilizes some seriously advanced anti-ageing technology – Multi-RF and DMA technologies, to be precise – and aims to enhance the contours of the face and smooth the skin simultaneously.

This technology is impressive. It emits radio frequency waves that channel heat into the dermis layer of the skin, stimulating collagen production and increasing skin’s elasticity. A smoother and plumper complexion is revealed – and I found that any fine lines I had before the treatment were less visible. The DMA technology within the device helps to stimulate the facial muscles to improve facial contours and definition. It goes deep to target the different muscles in the face, and, in essence, gives your face a ‘workout’. After using this over the course of a few weeks, I noticed that my jawline and cheekbones looked way more defined than they did before. My skin also felt smoother and tauter than ever. 

How to use the TriPollar Vx Device

If you want good results, there are a few rules to follow when using this device. I always start with cleansed, dry skin, so that I’m not working any dirt into my pores during the treatment. You then have to apply a tiny bit of the TriPollar Preparation Gel over the face and neck. Without doing so, the skin will not conduct the heat and rays from the device.

When using, I tend to divide my face into sections – both of my cheeks, forehead, and neck/jawline. Focussing on one area first, I lightly place the device on the surface of my skin and apply light pressure. It’s recommended to move the device in slow round motions around the area. This will ensure that each part of the skin heats up to the correct temperature.  

TriPollar STOP Vx has an orange indicator light, which shines and beeps once the area has reached the optimal temperature for the treatment. Once this happens, I still focus on the same area for a further 5 minutes before moving on to the next ‘section’. Once the whole face has been treated, I rinse the gel from my face and follow with a light moisturizer.

I would definitely recommend this product. It’s expensive, yes. But I have seen real results – and when I compare the cost of this to how much I spend on facials, it really doesn’t seem like much to pay!

Take five years off your age

Skincare routines have now become a must-have for most people. But what about your eyes? Do you have a specific cream for them? If not, here are a few reasons your eyes deserve that extra TLC.

Moisturizing Renewal Eye Cream

This fluffy, hydrating eye cream boosts your eye contour by promoting renewal and reducing fine lines and wrinkles. With eye contour being a sensitive zone, this cream works gently yet effectively to renew the skin without irritating the area. With a smoother, awakened look, your eyes are brighter and more vibrant.

The Eye Contour

If you are wondering what all the hype about eyes products is about, then here is all you need to know:

The skin found on and around our eyes is four times thinner than the skin found on the rest of our faces. The skin on our eyelids and under the eye struggles to retain moisture and is constantly in motion. Moreover, the skin can rapidly become dehydrated, resulting in discomfort, redness and flakiness. Using gentle and safe products with such a delicate, sensitive zone is essential.

What's Inside?

• Bio-Renewal Peptide: Helps brighten skin and smooths the tone.
• Exclusive Restorative Eye Complex: Rich in Phyto-proteins, amino acids and peptides, this complex retexturizes the area, erasing lines around the eyes.
• Sodium Hyaluronate: Helps reduce the look of lines/ wrinkles by plumping up the skin for a youthful look.

My Review

This lightweight eye cream delivered results I haven't gotten in years of eye treatments. The texture glides onto the skin, bringing immediate comfort and relief to redness. I applied the cream using a massage technique to help stimulate and drain my under-eye. You can also use this cream for the lip contour to help prevent fine lines. The eye cream is gently scented and doesn't make your eyelids sticky. It is a tremendous daily eye routine and can be used both morning and evening. Revive skincare offers simple-to-use products that give the result they promise. You can combine this eye cream with any other ritual or brand, as the formula works well with different textures.

Another product I am enjoying from the brand is Defensif Environmental Antioxidant Booster; read more about it here.
