Primark PS LOVE YOUR SKIN - Argan Facial Wipes!

Konnichiwa Minna-san~ ♥ Today I have a product that's a lot more close to home than my usual US and Asian brands. Recently Primark has brought out new facial cleansing wipes that are specifically targeted for dry skin. These are the P.S. LOVE YOUR SKIN - Argan Facial Cleansing Wipes! ♥

I have bought every kind of facial cleansing wipe from Primark and literally none of them have made a lasting impression on me until I found these. Due to having eczema, finding a cleansing wipe which doesn't dry my skin out or break my skin out is a little bit of a challenge. 

However these are fantastic, they're super soft and really hydrating to my skin which is a big bonus for me. These wipes also have an amazing citrus smell, which is quite gentle and very soothing as well, I'm not a huge expert in Argan oil so i'm not entirely sure if that is the citrus smell or if it has been added in. ♥

There is quite a few chemicals in these wipes but i'm pretty happy that nothing in here reacted with my skin at all. If you have a skin condition or sensitive skin they I would be a little wary of these, but for me the result was amazing.

I've noticed that my skin has became softer and I've had far less break outs in the month that i've been using these wipes, so for me they are definitely a winner aside from my usual Huggies Baby Wipes that I use on a daily basis. Overall I absolutely love these facial wipes and I really couldn't recommend them more, especially for people with dry skin ♥

StriVectin-WH™ Photo-White Dark Circle Corrector Product Review ♥

Konnichiwa Minna-san!~ Today I am reviewing the StriVectin-WH Photo-White Dark Circle Corrector (What a mouthful!). I've been working up to this product review for around two weeks now, since the manufacturers claim that 14 days are enough to see a difference in your under eye circles. ♥

StriVectin is a US skin care brand which is based in Arizona, they have been in production since 2002 and despite constant research I can't find out how Eco-friendly/Animal-friendly they are... This has already put one strike against their brand for me as I'm very cruelty-free orientated. 

They state that their products contain award winning NIA-144 Technology which is a molecule that StriVectin have created and patented. This molecule delivers Niacin which is basically vitamin B3 to the skin, which improves skin health and youthfulness. ♥

The Dark Circle Corrector contains a few key ingredients aside from NIA-144, these include:

• Light Diffusing Micas (Light reflecting, to mask and correct dark circles)
• Vitamin C
• Haloxyl™ (Renews skin cells, reduces puffiness and shadows from the skin)
• Caffeine

These together make up the main product for the Corrector. The product itself is a strange consistency, it's a mixture of a cream and ointment which is rather odd, but not unpleasant.  To me it smells like organic honey, or the Burt's Bees Lip Balm so for me I think it's lovely, but others may find the smell too strong and overwhelming. ♥

For me after two weeks I would say that I've seen a very slight difference in my dark circles, as mine aren't very strong anyway they are now nearly disappeared. For someone with very dry skin like me, it's really hard to put concealer under my eyes without it becoming cakey, this has also helped a lot with my under eye hydration. I'm assuming this is because of it's oil/ointment texture. 

For people who have very dark under eye circles, through bad sleeping patterns or genes, i'm not sure how well this may work for you. It may work if you use it for more than a month with a serum perhaps, but I don't think this product is good enough for extreme panda eyes. ♥

Although I like the RRP for this product is over £30, and for me that's not worth it. I bought mine from a TKMAXX store for £8 when they were having a yellow label sale.

I would probably give this product a 3/5. It's good for people who have dry under eyes and medium dark circles, but I wouldn't recommend it for those who are wanting they're panda eyes completely gone in 2 weeks.  ♥

Thank you very much for reading my review and I hope you stick around for more in the future

A New Project: Otakuography! - Cosplay Modeling & Photography.

Konnichiwa Minna!~ I have been gone for just under a month because I've been working on a special project with one of my super close friends Rachel, and that project is... *drum roll* ... Cosplay modeling and photography! 

So at the beginning of August we decided to start taking pictures of our cosplays from previous conventions and our future cosplays for this years Glasgow MCM Comicon as well. After a week or so we decided on a name for our Facebook page "OTAKUOGRAPHY". ♥

Yeah this was pretty much the entire of August for us, editing our photos, fixing the page and promoting ourselves to local cosplayers. I was pretty much waiting for the page to take off before writing this post as an explanation, so i'm glad to say that we have 150 likes so far! We have also began our Youtube channel where vlogs, m/v's of our cosplays and photo shoots can be watched!

We plan to specialize in all aspects of cosplay photography, at the moment the only upcoming photo shoots are based around anime/video games but hopefully in the future we may expand into comic books, movies etc... ♥

We both have previous experiences with photography and editing, such as degrees/qualifications and freelancing so this is not a new hobby for us and we are quite experienced in this field. However, editing in a cosplay way is slightly new but we feel like we're getting to grips with it well! 

At the moment we have only done two photo shoots, one for me which was Asuna Yuki from Sword Art Online and one for Rachel which was Natsu Dragneel Fem! from Fairy Tail. We hope to do many more in the future along with the few that we have lined up like Haruka Nanami from Uta no Prince-sama and The Pokemon Trainers from the X&Y series!

We hope to have a lot of support from all of my readers and we'll do our best to deliver amazing results at the same time as having a ton of fun. ♥♥ For any inquires into our new project whether it be for modeling/photography or advice then please don't hesitate to contact us either on our Facebook page, my blog or our Youtube Channel! ♥
