FrontCover rainbow eye set was a limited edition eyeshadow palette and has been bought back to BootsUK due to popular demands. The original price is £30 but Boots is doing a half price sale on it for £15.

FrontCover Rainbow Eye Set

This palette is a really good starter pack for those that want to start experimenting with make up. It comes with instructions on creating different looks and a large range of colours for you guys to experiment on.

I’m not sure if you can get palette in the USA.

Review : Egyptian Magic Skin Cream

Filed under: Health & Beauty, Skin Care

Finally a review on the Egyptian Magic cream I got a while. Going to make the review a quick one though. I’m going to do this review in Q&A format.

I have used the Egyptian Magic All Purpose Skin Cream for a week and a half now. I use it only at night time.

What does the cream look like?

It’s like solid wax in a tub however when you rub it with your fingers, it sort melts into runny paste on your fingers.

If it’s so hard how do you use it?

I just run two fingers in circular motion on the surface of the cream. It will melt slightly and a small amount will stick to my fingers. Then I apply whatever is on my fingers to a section of my face. I will need to do that about 5 times to cover my whole face in a thin layer.

What does the cream feel like on the skin?

Oily! That’s the reason I use it at night because it makes the skin all oily and shiny.

Won’t that clog your pores?

I thought that too when I first used it but when I woke up in my morning my skin was extremely hydrated and soft didn’t clog my pores at all. I have heard that some people gain spots and had cloggy pores afterwards. I use a small amount on my face, so it’s only a thin layer on my face.

The result after a week and a half
Amazing! My skin is less discoloured and more even toned. My blemishes have faded but I’m not sure if that is due to the cream because this cream doesn’t claim to heal blemish.

Before I started this cream treatment, I had many red areas especially on my cheeks and the side of my nose. I also had many brown scars from spots. That’s pretty much cleared apart from a few spots, a few small blemishes and dark spots that were caused by sun damage.

The price

The cream is about $36 (about £35 in the UK) which is pretty expensive for a cream. However it last for a long time as you don’t use much at each time. For me, a general tub of day cream will last 6-8 weeks, so considering the amount I use each night I think this magic cream will probably last 6 months.

I will update again after a few months. I can’t tell its effect completely because I’ve only used it for a short period.
