Living nature soft lights illuminating tint in “dawn glow” review, photos and swatches

This tint does exactly what it’s name says, “it illuminates the complexion”. You just need a small pump for the whole face, it instantly brightens and gives a glow to the complexion. It has a very fine pearly shimmer which helps to give the illuminating effect. Set it with a face powder to tone down the pearly shimmer and you are ready to go.

I use it mixed with a foundation since it adds an illuminating benefit to the foundation. Mixed with foundation it makes my face look dewy with a healthy glow. I also sometimes pat and blend it over my cheekbones after makeup to lighlight the area.

This tint not only makes you look good but is healthy for the skin as well. It’s packed with anti-oxidants and skin nourishing ingredients such as manuka honey, macadamia oil, jojoba oil, shea butter and more. It’s tinted with natural minerals and contains no nasties.

Living nature gentle makeup remover review, photos and swatches

I love my creamy cleansers and cleansing oils but there are times when I am so tired that I prefer to use cleansing waters instead. Cleansing waters are hassle-free and fastest way to getting a clean face. I was on a hunt for a gentle cleansing water and I noticed that “living nature” has got one. The formulation contains soothing and cleansing ingredients such as Kumerahou, harakeke Flax Gel, active Manuka Honey, eyebright and witchhazel extracts.

This cleanser is watery since it is a cleansing water, and I find that it smells like “ink”. I like the smell of ink, hehe. I prefer to use the product undiluted by directly using it on a dry cotton pad instead of diluting it with damp cotton pad. I press it against my eyelids and my makeup slids off easily. It doesnot sting or irritate your eyes. For me I need to wet the whole pad, just a few drops are not enough. But the product is extremely gentle and at the same time does it’s job very well. Your skin is left refreshed without feeling dry or oily. This cleanser is mild and gentle enough for sensitive skins too.
