Well hello there my lovely readers,

This is a very exciting post indeed for me , not only was i given the most amazing opportunity to review the magnitone lucid but I've also been given the opportunity to give one away for one of you lucky readers to win. So keep reading until the end to enter to this amazing giveaway.


If you follow me on twitter you will have seen me tweeting every night about how amazing my Magnitone lucid is, how much I've enjoyed using it and how fabulous my face is looking since using it.

Although i was sent this to review it hasn't made any impact on my thoughts of the product and I'm hoping the person to wins the giveaway will see exactly why I'm so obsessed with this product.



The Magnitone Lucid is a easy-to-use complexion-boosting tool that no beauty - conscious traveller should leave home with out. It promises softer, brighter, clearer skin in just 7 days where you can see the difference.

Ive been using this for 7 days now and my skin is a shadow of its former self, its more radiant , my skin has cleared up, its more plump, my pores have reduced , my blackheads have faded, my skin is so so so soft I'm forever stroking it. I'm kicking myself that i haven't tried this earlier.


In my box i received 
  • Magnitone Lucid 2 Mode Brush
  • Active Clean brush head with SprayGuard™ bristles
  • Magnetic clink travel charger (3-pin UK plug + 2-pin EU plug)
  • Instructions
  • 12 month warranty card
I however haven't been travelling this week, I've just been using this as part of my usual skincare routine, i take my makeup off with it and prep my skin for the day ahead.
I will be taking this on holiday with me when i go in august as it is just so handy, its quite small and light, it also comes with a detachable wireless travel charger, this is great because you only have to charge it once for 12 hours and the charge lasts for approx 2 weeks. .Its also water proof so great for in the shower, it also comes with an international charger so if it does run out i won't have to be searching high and low for a international plug (we all know we pack a lot of travel plugs but when we come to use them, can we find them? NO!) i can just plug it in. 
If your travelling this summer or in fact ever i would honestly recommend to take this with you and it will completely change the way you cleanse your skin forever



The colour i was sent was 'plush pink' which just is Alexandra Elizabeth all over. I'm a proper girly girl and love everything pink, it just makes it that more fun and luxurious when I'm cleansing. Not only does it come in pink but also 3 more colours to match your summer look, how cute right?
How perfect are the colours? So summery

The one thing i love about the Magnitone Lucid is that it works with my regular cleanser, for the morning i have been using the Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish hot cloth cleanser and for the evening for a deeper clean I've been using Biore Deep Pore Charcoal Cleanser just to make sure all of my makeup is off.
It has 2 settings deep clean and sensitive which you can change at the click of a button. I'm quite lucky and don't have sensitive skin so I've been using deep clean since day one but it recommends to use the sensitive setting for the first 5 days and then go onto the deep clean.
It has a timer also which i love, i use it for 20 seconds on my forehead and down my nose, after this is pauses and i use 10 seconds on each cheek and then the last 20 seconds over my chin area. It buffed away any dry patches that i have and really deep cleanses into my pores. Also with active electromagnetic technology It has 10,000 pulsed oscillations per minute to really give an effective clean and exfoliation.




After i have used this i have noticed that all of my skincare just absorbers amazingly into my skin and my makeup just looks flawless and it creates an amazing base.
Ive been able to have no makeup days which is usually a no no for me, my confidence has just gone through the roof.


The first time i used it i went down stairs and my family all said "wow" i told them to feel it and they where totally taken aback with how amazing my skin felt, a few days later in work one of the girls said i looked more youthful and more radiant and asked what i had been using, once i told her what it was she went online straight away to order herself one.
I also asked my boyfriend to try it too sharing is caring  right? , he loved it, he was abit sceptical at first but once he had used it he was pretty impressed.

This is a great product and has completely changed the way that i now cleanse my face, I'm so glad i was given the opportunity, I've wanted to try a cleansing face brush for a long while but didn't know if it would break me out and they are pretty expensive, the great thing about this is that its only £69.99  (Currently on offer for £49.99 absolute bargain from look fantastic) and I'm now contemplating buying the Magnitone Pulsar for an all over body experience.

Okay im going to say it, i think this might be my most favourite primer.

I know this is a dupe for Benefit Porefessional, but i didn't really like it, couldn't understand the hype and didn't think it made any difference to my pores.

With this only being £12.50 and after reading reviews of other bloggers who didn't like porefessional but bought this and loved it, i was intrigued and in my basket it went. I find that every time i go to boots i end up buying everything else except the product i went in for  :( but this time it was a good thing.





I am also completely converted to this primer, as i have oily skin i need all the help i can get to keep my makeup to stay put, and don't even go there with my pores, but this primer just makes my makeup look flawless, it stays put all day and my pores have sort of completely vanished.
The difference it makes to my skin and makeup application 

After my skincare routine i put this all over my face, you only need a little and your face is covered.Its a soft velvety feel which is luxurious. plus it is also completely colourless which is always a bonus



If your wanting to try benefit professional i would give this a go first as its only £12.50 

You can buy this from Boots or From boots online

Hi, I’m Catherine from Counter Pretty. Alexandra was lovely enough to let me do a guest post which is going to be a bit of a rant I’m afraid! But it’s something that we both agree on and I hope and think most of you agree with it as well!







I have been looking for something that will help with the scars left over from spots, and one of my lovely followers on twitter recommended that I try this.

I picked this up a few months back to see if it really could brighten up my skin and remove the hyper pigmentation that old spots have left behind.


Over night serum with 4% glycolic acid. A highly effective overnight serum with powerful glycolic acid to improve skin texture and smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

PoreAway visibility reduces the appearance of pores for a more refined and even looking complexion.

Well hello there,

You may or may not know but i do love a good old bath, nothing can bit a bit of Tub time.I love them way more than showers and every once in a while i like to have a pamper evening, one of my main steps is to tie up my hair and have a nice relaxing hot bubble bath. It just de-stresses me and I can sit there quite the thing for a good 30 minutes just floating away taking in all of the smells around me and letting my mind just be free.
