Trilogy - Rosapene Night cream

Happy Thursday Everyone! I Hope you're having a good week!
 
All the way back in December 2013 I treated myself to the You-Beauty advent calendar, which included this little treat. I have recently rediscovered it and completely loved it and therefore thought it deserved it's own post. So here goes!
I wouldn't normally go for a high end night cream as I don't believe that 'you get what you pay for' always apply's. In a lot of cases, it seems you are just paying extra for the brand name, but this little beauty proved me wrong. It was unlikely that I would have ever tried this without it being in my calendar, so I'm really glad that it was! It has somewhat changed my opinion, and I will definitely be branching out a little more often.
It glides onto your skin really nicely, and sinks in straight away, meaning you aren't left with a horrible layer of grease on your face! After the first night of using this, I had already noticed a big difference in my skin (It gets quite dry in the winter, and when I woke up, it was soooo much softer) and after a couple of uses, my skin also looked a lot brighter and healthier!
 
It also smells amazinggg! At first I didn't really like the smell, as it smells quite lavendery (if that's a word) and I'm normally not a huge fan of that scent. Somehow though, I have become addicted to it, and I will definitely have to be re-purchasing it!
 
If, like me, you normally go for cheaper skin products (thinking price doesn't make a difference) I would definitely recommend splashing out that little bit extra on this, as it really does make a difference!
 
Thank you for reading!

YouBeauty - Advent Calender

 
A few days before December arrived, this beautiful thing appeared on my door step. 
 
 Being the excited, impatient person I am, I found it difficult waiting each day to open just one door. So by the 6th day, this had happened...
 
 


I know it's a bit late to review this product, as the start of December was a while ago now, and many people would have probably wanted it ready for the countdown. However, I really love it, so I wanted to write about it! (no harm in that, ay!)
 
Although I was hoping for some of the products to be a bit bigger (a few of them are just samples) A good amount of them are really decently sized, and you obviously get your moneys worth. It can still be purchased online here, for just £49.95, which is a great price seeing as the products are worth over £240!

I had previously looked at buying different beauty style advent calendars, but ended up deciding on this one, purely because it has a wider range of products. (Mostly skincare, but also make-up, and bath and shower products).

My favourite products include the Stila Lip glaze, the Himalayan Detox Salts, the Steamcream moisturiser and Dr. Lipp.

I would love to know peoples opinions on other advent calenders!
