Liz Earle Healthy Glow Cream Blush Review

Following on from the successful launch of the tinted moisturiser last year, Liz Earle has created a whole make-up range. In keeping with the brand's style, the collection is straight-forward, easy to use and most products are multi-taskers. 

The Healthy Glow Cream Blush does exactly what it says on the box. With a soft texture you can apply with your fingers or a brush directly onto the apples of your cheeks and then blend down your cheekbones for a more defined finish.

For a fresh country-walk glow opt for the ‘Peony’ shade. While it might look bright in the compact, it is easy to blend and will give your cheeks a gorgeous rosy touch. The Cream Blush can also be used on lips too to complete your look.

Liz Earle’s Healthy Glow Blush is £16.50 and available from Lizearle.com.

Rating: 9/10 – Quick and easy to use – a great handbag beauty buy.

Liz Earle Sheer Skin Tint Review


Liz Earle’s skincare, most namely the Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser has been widely acclaimed as the best available so it’s no surprise that she has turned her attention to make-up. The Sheer Skin Tint is the first of three make up launches to be unveiled over the next year.

The creamy, rich formula feels like a foundation at first touch and if you’re not an avid make-up wearer it might feel too heavy. However, once you’ve blended it into your skin and its dried it does feel considerably lighter.

Available in three shades, ‘Bare’ is very light and provides fair-skin with a fresh-faced, pearly shimmer, while ‘Beige’ the medium shade offers a hint of colour to boost your complexion.

If you’re fair skinned, but do want a natural golden glow you can either mix both the shades together or dilute ‘Beige’ with your moisturiser. The latter is perfect for those who have dry to combination skin.

The formula includes moisturising avocado oil and protecting natural vitamin E, although using moisturiser before applying the Sheer Skin Tint is still highly recommended, as it will sit better on smoother, moisturised skin.

It’s also worth noting that Liz Earle’s Sheer Skin Tint does include a mineral UV protection SPF15 making it ideal for all year round wear.

Liz Earle’s Sheer Skin Tint is £21 and is available from Lizearle.com.

Rating: 8/10 – This is a great alternative to foundation for those who don’t like wearing too much make-up and it gives your complexion a radiant glow that does last a full day at work.

Liz Earle Superskin Body Cream Review

When the cold weather kicks in we naturally reach for either a body oil or the richest body butter we can find to rehydrate skin quickly and effectively. Wouldn't it be nice to find a bodycare product that moisturises skin without the heavy, sticky consistency of a butter and without the greasy film left by some oils? Enter Liz Earle's Superskin Body Cream - a product that I defy anyone not to fall in love with.
 
In keeping with brand style, this body cream is packed full of natural ingredients with 25% of the formula being made up of plant oils alone to feed your skin. Starting with East African shea butter - a natural ingredient which nourishes while forming a barrier to help retain moisture and improve skin's elasticity - which together with rosehip, cranberry seed and borage flower oils gives skin a serious boost of moisture.
 
Avocado oil is another key ingredient that not only moisturises, but also contains a high amount of vitamin E to protect skin from the environment.
 
Liz Earle's Superskin body cream has an aromatic scent with floral notes courtesy of neroli essential oil, which has uplifting, restorative properties that compliment the chamomile essential oil that works to soothe and calm skin.
 
With more of a lotion-like consistency, this body cream is easy to massage into skin, but the real beauty of this product is its super moisturising formula that works in the same way you'd expect a body oil or body butter to.
 
The results are felt almost immediately as the formula is absorbed very quickly and leaves skin feeling incredibly soft and nourished. This is a great winter skin saver that you won't want to stop using when the weather warms up.
 
Liz Earle's Superskin Body Cream is available in two sizes and priced at £28.75/200ml and £12.50/50ml from Lizearle.com.
 
Rating: 10/10 - I completely love this bodycare product because it gives skin an instant moisture boost and leaves skin feeling cared for. Plus you can try the product out within investing too much money thanks to the travel size bottle.
