SIMPLY THE BEST!! It's Our February Beauty Round-Up: Best Beauty Invention, Best GWP, Best Lotions, Potions & More...

This month I’ve had some fabulous beauty products arrive at my door!  And I’ve noticed that many of these items are just a little bit different from the norm, so I thought a beauty round-up was in order to showcase some of the fabulous items that have recently launched, or are very soon to be launched.  From ‘best beauty gadget’ through to the ‘best gift with purchase’, check out some of the standout items in this month’s Simply The Best – Monthly Beauty Round-Up….

Best Beauty Gadget – Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi
I talked about this on social media recently, so if you follow me on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram you will already know what I think of the Scholl Express Pedi. Instant love! Many have been wondering – does this actually work? Is it worth the price tag? In short, YES!  Not only has it saved me a heap of money on spa visits, I’m amazed at how quick and easy it is to use (and if you have been tuning in to my social media platforms, you’ll see that my readers who have since bought this, love it just as much). Simply turn it on, guide it over your feet and let it work its magic.  You’re left with velvety smooth feet and there’s no pain or discomfort whatsoever.  Goodbye foot-file & expensive spa visits, hello Scholl Express Pedi.

Best GWP – Clinique’s Travel Bonus Gift With Purchase
Sure, the Clinique ‘Travel’ Bonus Gift With Purchase promotion doesn’t start until March, but hey, what good is hearing about a fabulous promotion, when its ended right?  From 12th March through to 30th March you get the best of Clinique in an 8 piece gift valued at RRP$151.00 with any purchase of two or more Clinique items (for a limited time) at Life Pharmacy & selected Unichem Pharmacies!  This GWP has to be THE best value with all the products you get, and they’re all travel-size, making them the perfect carry-on companion. Whether it’s for your overnight bag, or travelling overseas, this super-cute cosmetic bag, crammed full of fabulous Clinique goodies is an amazing bonus gift with purchase.  Admittedly I’ve already used a couple of these goodies (especially the Chubby Stick Lip Balm – in Roomiest Rose!), but I have saved a few for my travel case too.  Here’s what you can expect to receive when you purchase any two or more Clinique products: Moisture Surge Face Spray (30ml), Even Better Dark Spot Correcting Hand cream SPF15 (30ml), Rinse Off Foaming Cleanser (30ml), Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief (15ml), Repairwear Laser Focus Wrinkle Correcting Eye Cream (5ml), High Impact Waterproof Mascara Black (3.9ml), Chubby Stick Intense Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm – Roomiest Rose (1.2g), Cosmetics Bag.

Best Surgery-Free Facelift – Murad Rapid Collagen Infusion
Part of their award-winning Age Reform range, ‘Rapid Collagen Infusion’ provides dramatic and immediate results.  Clinically proven to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in only 2 hours!! (Oh, and this has to be the first face cream, created to erase the signs of aging, that you can apply to the delicate area directly under the eye). Using their famous RepleniCell Technology, along with Winged Kelp (to smooth skin by assisting with collagen production) and Murad’s Cellular Hydro-Lock containing Apple and Lentil Seed Extract (which works to plump skin and help smooth fine lines and wrinkles) Murad has created a patented formula that promotes natural collagen and elastin production.  In a nutshell – Murad’s Rapid Collagen Infusion has all the benefits of a dermal filler with no downtime, the results of an eye-lift, sans the scalpel. Available exclusively at Caci nationwide.

Best Body Exfoliator – WELEDA Birch Body Scrub
I’ve chosen WELEDA’s Birch Body Scrub as ‘best body exfoliator’ as not only does it improve the overall appearance of skin, it’s also bursting with the cellulite-blasting natural goodness of Birch.  The refreshing combination of Nature certified ingredients gently exfoliates and smooths skin, assisting in cellulite reduction. And it’s not a bad price tag either, at $19.90 – this is a great buy! Of course, as with all WELEDA products, it smells so clean, natural and good enough to eat! (not that I eat it, I honestly don’t) but their products always smell just so darn delicious. Soft, radiant, healthy, glowing skin?  Yes please!

Best Colostrum Based Skincare – theCream
Building on the overwhelming success of their Colostrum based mens & womans skincare, theCream (Nature’s Superfood for Skin) have recently launched five new additions to their already stellar lineup of skincare. If you’re not familiar with theCream – you can read all about it here in one of my earlier posts (I have been an avid user for quite some time).  In line with their philosophy of delivering real living skincare, 100% natural with 0% bull, all formulations contain no chemicals, petrochemicals, alcohol, parabens, preservatives, fillers or added water. New to theCream’s range: theCream Age Defying Eye Serum ($69), theCream Moisturizing Lip Cream ($29), theCream Concentrated Repair Cream ($45), theCream Moisturizing Age Repair Hand Cream ($45), theCream Moisturizing Anti-aging Conditioning Cream ($45).  In addition to expanding the range, two revolutionary actives have been combined (Defensil Plus & DermCom), together with the Colostrum base, delivering exceptional results.  The new additions to theCream’s range have been globally launched here in New Zealand through Health 2000 stores.  For more information head to: www.health2000.co.nz

Fashion Beauty Lifestyle Blogger A Girl Interrupted By Fashion, Beauty & Anything Pretty That Catches My Eye. Editor Angie Fredatovich. The Miscellaneous Musings Of A Girl Interrupted By Fashion, Beauty & Anything Pretty That Catches My Eye. I am passionately in love with the colour green!! I've always loved green, even as a child. My mother said this would wane as I got older. it did not!! I love nothing more than having the mundane interrupted by all things beautiful and fashionable. Passing time in tiny cafes with a pot of tea and a pile of magazines. Sitting under a tree with my favourite book or ‘old-school’ journal jotting down blogging ideas. Taking photographs of beautiful things, sitting front row at Fashion Week. Giant bunches of fragrant flowers, burning Ecoya candles, vintage jewellery. Trawling antique shops and markets for antique books, writing slopes and jewellery boxes. Hibernating indoors by the fire during winter, laying on freshly mowed grass eating pastries and sipping on raspberry lemonade during summer. The red sole of louboutins, exciting parcels arriving at the door with forgotten online purchases or product samples. Unwrapping the tissue of ‘just bought’ items of clothing from my favourite stores, Marc Jacobs, Karen Walker, Storm, Decjuba, Glassons, Loumina, Country Road, Bobbi Brown, MAC, oh the list goes on… Please do write to me at any time with comments, invites, press notes, media releases, things you’d like me to try and your own favourite finds. There’s nothing I love more than to connect with fellow Beauty Gurus & Fashionistas alike. You can reach me at angie@gurlinterrupted.com Ange xx

    Hey,
    I love your review on the Scholl Velvet Smooth Express Pedi tool. It’s got me really interested. One question? Does it hurt/ what does it feel like?
    Thanks!
