NO7 EARLY DEFENCE DAY & NIGHT CREAM

No7 have released a new skincare range which is suited to younger skin. I touched on the day cream in my Summer Ready Skincare post, read that here, but I have been enjoying it that much, I thought it deserved its own blog post. Early Defence is a formula for 20-35 year olds, I have tried the day and night cream, but there is also an eye cream in the range which I haven’t tried. The new range is a stepping stone to help in the transition from every day skincare to hardcore anti-ageing products. The No7 Early Defence Day Cream contains an SPF 15 and UVA protection, as well as Lipopeptides and Vitamin A to help reduce the appearance of fine lines. The texture of the cream is lightweight and more of a gel type formula which I prefer. I find the day cream absorbs quickly into my skin and I don’t find it greasy at all on my skin’s surface. The range offers No7’s new Double Defence technology which contains 5* UVA protection which gives skin advanced daily protection from the sun and environment. Double Defence contains Ginseng and Mulberry, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Rice Peptides and Alfalfa. I’m really getting on with this day cream, it moisturises as well as softens my skin. It’s nice to know that my skin is protected and my skin appears to be more radiant before applying my make-up. The No7 Early Defence Night Cream is a hydrating cream that is designed to boost your skin which works while you sleep. It protects from daily damage that continues and helps your skin to recover. By using both the skin is protected from environmental damage and will hopefully in the long run look younger for longer. The Early Defence range has replaced the Protect and Perfect Day, Night and Eye Cream. For me, this is the first skincare product I have been excited about from No7. I have always seen No7 for the older target market, but this range is ideal for me and my lifestyle. Both creams have a really light scent with a hint of citrus, so it’s perfect to use in the Summer months. I’m really into my skincare and think it’s important to help prevent ageing early. I find these creams ideal for my oily skin and they're also Hypo-allergenic like all No7 products so they're kind to even the most sensitive skins. I haven't broken out by using these creams as it doesn't block up your pores and it sits nicely under my make-up. The creams are priced at £19.50 each, which is around the price I would normally spend on an Origins cream. I really like the packaging and the fact that you get 50ml of product, these products have definitely become firm favourites in my routine.

Will you be trying the Early Defence range? I definitely need to pick up the eye cream next!

MOST REPURCHASED BEAUTY PRODUCTS

I am the sort of girl who likes to buy and try new products on a regular basis, but there are some products which I have to repurchase time and time again because I love them and know they work for me. There isn't many, but here is the selection of products I always miss when I run out of them and simply can't live without.
Origins VitaZing - This is my go to morning/day moisturiser, I have repurchased this so many times. I do sometimes try something else but always end up going back to this. The formulation has an SPF15 and I really like that it comes with an added tint to even out my skin tone. This energy boosting moisturiser is really hydrating, gives you glowing, radiant skin and is best for dehydrated skin types. If i'm not going out that day, I will just apply this and it gives me the light coverage I need. It absorbs really quickly into the skin and has a really light texture and doesn't make my skin feel oilier.
V05 Dry Shampoo - This has to be my favourite drugstore dry shampoo that I've tried so far. It doesn't leave white marks at all, it smells great, not musky and it gets rid of oily roots. It's really affordable, I just wish they did a travel sized version. It's really light and refreshing in the hair and it comes in two version, Plump me up which gives you added volume and Refresh me quick, which is my favourite. I like to use it on busy mornings or after the gym if I haven't got time to wash my hair. I always have one of these on stand by.
Soap & Glory Body Wash - Soap and Glory do some of my favourite bath and body products from the drugstore. I always have one of their shower gels on the go, Foam Call is the one i'm currently using. I love that they come in these massive 500ml pump bottles which last ages and the pump makes it so easy to dispense the products. All the scents are lovely, this one is really fruity and fresh and they lather up nicely on the body. I swap and change between the scents, I think Rich & Foamous has to be my all time favourite. The formulation is really moisturising, the scent last for ages and you can layer up the products with your favourite S&G body scrub or moisturiser.
Origins Make A Difference Plus+ Rejuvenating Treatment - This is another Origins product I am forever repurchasing as I know it only does good things to my skin. It's a wonder cream for blemishes and clears them up quickly over night. I like the treatment version over the cream as it's more of a gel formula which is perfect for my combination/oily skin type. The formula is oil free and instantly boosts skins hydration. I like to use this in the evenings to finish my skincare routine and the scent is just lovely. I have found by using this the general look of my skin has improved massively. 
Chloe Fragrances - Chloe has to be my all time favourite classic signature scent, and I have bought into most fragrances they have brought out. I am currently really liking the Chloe - Roses de Chloe scent, which has gorgeous notes of rose, bergamot, amber and white musk but still has the classic, floral fresh Chloe smell. I will continue to purchase Chloe fragrance as I know they suit me, they're great quality and last ages on my skin. I have also really been loving their See by Chloe line. I can't wait for Chloe's newest fragrance to be released which is called Love Story.
