Poundland Bargains // DermaV10 deep wrinkle collagen filler review

 I'm convinced that if I do all I can to stop wrinkles now,they will stay away for the forseable future and hopefully forever.I know this is wishful thinking but I already apply suncream and drink lots of water,and I was looking for a cream too add to my skincare collection that can help my skin stay looking young.I've had great success with Derma V10 products from Poundland in the past and I reguarly use their day cream,so I was really excited to try this deep wrinkle collagen filler.


























I love how fuss free and crisp the packaging looks,it definitely helps the product look a lot more luxurious,if you didn't know you might have thought I paid a lot more for it! It's contains various ingredients that are designed to help leave your skin looking smoother and wrinkle free.Let's have a look and see what they do shall we?


Collagen :- This is a protein that can help maintain the elasticity of the skin and support the renewal of cells
.
Hylauronic Acid :-This substance helps the skin hold on to water which results in the reduction of wrinkles and signs of ageing

Shea Butter :- This is well known for being great for moisturising skin and leaving it soft and smooth.

Caffeine :- Great for perking up skin and reducing puffy areas.

It all sounds great doesn't it? On top of all of that,it's very easy to use.You just place the nozzle against any problem areas and then massage the cream in.For maximum results,it's suggested that you use this daily.


























I've been using this product for about a week now and I'm really glad I've added it to my routine.It's really cooling and great at soothing the under eye area when I've had a long day.I've also noticed that it reduces under eye bags and dark circles,and that's worth a round of applause! It's.It's definitely helps me feel more confident in my skin,and the bonus is that I know no animals have been harmed either.I can't comment on it's wrinkle reducing abilities,but after applying it my skin does look more glowing and even,so I imagine that it would be an effective anti ageing cream too! It's everything I could want in an eye cream and I will definitely be repurchasing it again,although I think it will take me a while to finish as you don't need much.

What anti ageing products do you swear by?

Poundland bargains // Rimmel Glam'eyes Quad Eye shadow review

I love neutral eye colours because they're so versatile and easy to wear.A simple smokey eye is my go to evening make up,but I don't often wear eye shadows because of work, so I don't tend to spend too much! Poundland seem to have lots of Rimmel products on offer at the moment,so I quickly grabbed this Glam'Eyes Quad Eye shadow in Smokey Noir.I could only find this one,but I know that Rimmel do 9 other quads in various shades.

I love the simple fuss free packaging,and that you get four shades for the princely sum of £1!I don't use the applicator they give you as I find it doesn't really help with blending,but the colours go on smoothly and blend well with my Eco Tools brush.There's quite a lot of product in each pan and I have noticed that it does stay on my eyes for a long time,I'd say a good 5 hours so it's well worth it.


 I love that they have a little guide on the back,as I'm terrible at knowing what to put where.Also,it gives you tips on how to achieve subtle or more dramatic eye looks.I was very impressed that there wasn't a lot of fall out onto my face,it stayed put and gave my eyelids a really pretty and subtle colour.I like to use shade 2 for a simple day time look with some black liquid liner.


Shades 2 & 3 aren't very visible from the photo,but they looks lovely on the eye.All of the colours are really wearable and complement each other well.

Shade 1:-  A neutral medium grey perfect for a subtle smokey eye base.
Shade 2:- My favourite of the quad,it's a beautiful dove grey that's buildable for a stronger look
Shade 3 :- A pale shimmery white/grey which is a great highlighter.It doesn't look glittery either,so if you're after a matte finish this is the one.
Shade 4:- A deep black colour which is very pigmented and is wonderful for creating more dramatic looks.


I would really recommend this quad to people who want a fun but effective product that isn't going to cost the Earth.This would be a really good introduction to eye shadows or the smokey eye look because it's easy to use and goes through all of the steps with you.I keep them on for a long time and they don't cause any irritation either,so I imagine this would suit people with sensitive skin or contact lens wearers.I'm definitely going to keep my eyes open to see if Poundland are stocking any more.
