Australian Bodycare's Blemish Stick Review





The Australian Bodycare's Blemish Stick is the ideal treatment to get rid of those nasty spots that appear right before you have to go somewhere or do something. I had a pesky one on my nose that just had to go before I go away this week and after applying this tea tea roller ball on to the area twice a day for the past three days, it's gone! It went away quickly and the ease of a roller ball rather than a cream or treatment makes life a lot easier. 

The main ingredient in the blemish stick is tea tree oil, and it really is the star of the show. It fights off any bacteria that causes spots on your face and it is a natural oil that won't harm or burn your skin in any way. The blemish stick is only 9ml making it perfect to carry around with you in your hand luggage when you go on holiday and also keeping it with you on a day to basis in case of an emergency. The clear liquid means you can apply on top of your makeup, it doesn't show up and kills off your spots at the same time.

I seem to have never discovered the amazing benefits of  tea tree oil and this little wonder is great for treating spots as soon as they appear and it will definitely be coming with me on holiday! 


It retails at  £5.99 and you can find it at

The Travelling Outfit

 This week I go on my holiday and I can't wait! A lot needs to be done within the next few days but one thing I have got sorted is my 'travelling outfit'. I don't know about you, but I love planning outfits out and one of the ones I love planning is my journey home. I like to show off  that I have been away, and that the sun was wonderful. I'm weird ok


The outfit I will be wearing is my new jumpsuit from Asda (found in store), after searching everywhere for one I finally managed to find one and for a bargain of £8 down from £16! It was love at first sight, not too revealing, a nice and bold pattern as well as a string to tie near the base which helps keep my waist in check. The zip on the front just finishes off for me, and it a low v-neck which was the thing that drew me towards it, as others are more scooped neck. My shoes are still a problem, probably decide when I get there. 




With a patterned jumpsuit, I want to keep everything else pretty simple seen as though I will have to tag along my luggage. So in the simple theme, I will be wearing my Ethiopian opal and white topaz ring* from Gemporia at £24. I have only recently become a fan of dainty rings, and this one I can't stop wearing. The finish of it is beautiful, and Opal is something I would never think of buying but something about the size, and finish is just stunning. The white topaz detailing on the sides adds something different and brings together the ring as a whole. You can find a whole range of rings from Gemporia, each one is crafted for you and at reasonable prices so you can afford to treat yourself. Also, if you don't know your ring size like me then use their app/print out to find out - genius! 


I love how simple yet chic this outfit is, and feel so summery just thinking about it! What is your go to travelling outfit?

Palettes Perfect for Travelling


T-Minus 8 Days until I am on a plane out of this country and into sunny Germany! Packing makeup is one thing I find really frustrating because I never know how much to pack, or even what?! It usually ends up me having way more lipsticks than items all together, but that's why I am called a lip product addict right? One thing that I do have sussed out this year for travelling abroad is that palettes are a girl's best friend, they make it easier to take more things with you and take us less/sometimes more room. 

 Protection Palette  This was a no brainer to put into my travel bag, the protection palette is the number one product for touch ups and on the go. This will be the one i keep in my hand luggage, mainly because of the big mirror and with me along on the trip so that I can keep tabs on my sweaty face. The bronze, highlighter and blush is also a combo that is suited to my skin tone, meaning I don't have to take these things separately. 


Collection Eyes Uncovered - This is a pretty new addition to the eye shadow family, but since Amelia Liana raved about the amazingness that is this cute little palette I just had to try it and at the size of my palm it is perfect for travelling! The options in this selection allow you to do day and night looks, even though the brush is bad, it saves me taking lots of blending brushes with me. They are also super pretty, meaning they will last me for a long time. 


Urban Decay Naked 1 - I have been debating a lot whether or not to take this with me, but the Naked palette is one of the most versatile palettes out there. It allows you to create a whole book of looks, from a one shadow sweep for everyday to a smokey eye for the night time. I also know that they last a long time so on the longer days/nights it will last.


Urban Decay On the Run - Truthfully, I only wanted this back at Christmas for the purpose of this trip. I have used it before but now it is going to get its full use!!! The eye shadows, bronzer and blush give me more options for a day to basis and it includes a lip gloss, eyeliner and mascara making it even easier to use when I am away. 


What are your go to travel palettes???

Help: Clear Skin Review



It is no surprise to regular readers of c&g that i suffer from acne, and it is a real pain. I have documented all the different products I have ever tried and today's post brings you another product. Let me introduce to you the help:clear skin a formula that has been proven to be rich in lactoferrin. Lactoferrin (very fancy) is something that helps to reduce the development of the bacteria that is mainly responsible skin impurities.


I was kindly gifted the 28 day pack from the brand to test out and see how it works ,I finished my 28 days yesterday and in this post will be sharing my experience, thoughts and more about the product. In the box you get little sachets that you can take daily, you just mix the powder into a drink or some food, i went with water each time, stir until dissolved and then drink/eat.  

The big question, how did it work out? Well, it definitely got rid of the acne along my T Zone aka the problem are. The painful, under the skin pimples that I get all the time didn't seem to appear as much and also didn't hurt as much. Taste? Nothing, it dissolves into the water and then you honestly taste nothing! The only thing I recommended is that you take it with hot water/hot drinks not cold because it can be really difficult to mix well- like i experienced the first time around.  I have absolutely loved the results from using this 'supplement' and if you are fed up of applying topical application to help with your spots, then I highly suggest trying this as an alternative. 

Buy your 28 day pack at £39.95 here

The other thing that I kindly got send was the help:beautify skin which is a really nice apple flavoured jelly supplement that doesn't need mixing anything with anything, you just have it in one go. The amazing apple tasting jelly is filled full of natural ingredients that have been proven to deliever anti-ageing benefits. There is alot lot of vitamins and goodness inside that benefits different areas of your skin, I was taking this every other day along with the powder and haven't experienced any side effects - touch wood.

Overall, I have been really impressed with both of these products and if you are looking for something new to try then you should look on the website and view what works best for you.
