The Body Shop Drops of Sun Holiday Glow Creator

Product Information

For my before and after below, I ended up using probably the max I’d ever use – 4-5 drops. (1-2 drops didn’t show up well on camera – it was just too subtle of a difference). What I did was mix the drops into a clear face primer (the e.l.f Mineral Primer), and then I blended it into my skin with a foundation brush ( RT’s Expert Face Brush). As you can see from the before and after, not only did the drops add a nice bronzed/tanned look to my skin, they also helped even out my skintone a bit too. The Drops of Light Brightening Essence Lotion is a really gel-like formula with Aloe Vera juice but after water and hydrating glycerin there is a little alcohol which you can’t really feel or smell, but just beware it’s there if you’re sensitive. Due to being called a day cream rather than just ‘moisturiser’, this would hint that a night cream is on its way if the range does well (a mask would be fab too whilst we’re at it). The Drops of Light Brightening Day Cream is very light weight texture despite feeling quite rich before applying to the skin. It has a gorgeous, gentle fragrance and although disappears, leaves the surface of the skin well hydrated and dewy/matt.

Do Asian people want to be white? Well, not really; it’s not that simple but I’ll try and explain. Japanese was part of my undergrad and I’ve been studying the language and its culture for over 10 years; skin whitening is something that comes up often. It is not a race thing. The only people who tend to get offended about it is other white people, not understanding its roots. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bt9GhpvzQxQ&list=PLE0-WxVS2QvFTn76-6F90yo03VHfAXepJ The Body Shop Drops of Light Reviewed Apply a small amount from the pipette morning and night after the Essence Lotion but before moisturising. Again, with it being very light it sinks in almost instantly. There is a touch of alcohol again which isn’t noticeable but still just watch it around your eye area. It’s super-lightweight, smells great and will provide you all the UK sun protection you’ll need. I’ll be reviewing this later on this week or next! It’s not currently available but will be very soon. This can definitely be used with the Drops of Light range and applied after the Day Cream. Definitely one of the creamiest facial washes I’ve ever used and great for normal/oily skin types. It’s designed to deeply cleanse the skin and remove dirt/debris without stripping the skin.Morning and night, apply a small amount into your finger ends, gently warm it and then press into the skin. This helps the product absorb and lets the skin do the work rather than trying to force it in. I really do like how it feels and lasts all day without my skin going tight or dehydrated! The all new 4th step. Essence Lotions like The Body Shop Drops of Youth, La Mer The Essence, L’Occitane Immortelle Divine Lotion or Bobbi Brown Extra Treatment Lotion are all used in between cleansing and applying your moisturiser and/or serum. These lightweight gel lotions are designed to deliver a small amount of treatment but mainly prep the skin after cleansing to help whatever is applied on top to be pulled further down into the skin.

Here is a playlist I’ve put together of some fab Japanese and South Korean skin care and makeup adverts; some of which highlight the above and also watch out for the brilliantly weird Shiseido ad – High School Girl: The Body Shop makeup is all about natural beauty; both enhancing your own and drawing inspiration (and ingredients) from the planet's. With everything from a 40-shade foundation range in 100% recyclable bottles to a vibrant lineup of lip colours in every finish and tone, prettifying your makeup bag with the power of plants has never been easier. Whether you love a bold winged liner or a blot-and-go lip, you are guaranteed to find something eye-catching in the colourful The Body Shop catalog. The range has 4 key products: Drops of Light Brightening Cleansing Foam, Drops of Light Brightening Essence Lotion, Drops of Light Brightening Serum and the Drops of Light Brightening Day Cream. Drops of Light Brightening Cleansing FoamMy favorite way to use The Body Shop Honey Bronze Drops of Sun is mixed in with my morning moisturizer. On my light-medium skin, 1-2 drops applied this way adds the slightest touch of bronze, creating a very natural sun-kissed look. Anymore than that, the bronzed effect becomes a lot more noticeable – like I’d just spent a day out in the sun and gotten a natural tan. There are other schools of thought but this is the most widely regarded theory of why many East-Asian people seek whiter/lighter/brighter complexions. People in Asia use skin bleaching ( of which Drops of Light is not) just as people in the US and Europe have tanning injections – two extreme ends of the same scale.
