The Yves Saint Laurent make up team claim the three main causes of a dull complexion are "surface shadows, colour disorders and lack of transparency", so this Forever Light Creator has been formulated to work on improving the skin’s brightness, luminosity and uniformity. 

I was very keen to trial this new serum from YSL as soon as I heard about it and so I was very intrigued to know if it could live up to all its pre-launch hype and whether it could actually help eliminate and correct some of my skin imperfections.

I read an interesting advert in Stylist a few weeks back about the newly launched EverRiche No Sulphates Cleansing System from L'Oreal Paris Hair Expertise and decided I needed to try for myself.

The ad went on to say that "trying to keep hair looking healthy and glossy can be an impossible mission" and I can quite easy agree to that statement!
The problem is that we all panic and believe that the only solution to dry, damaged or unruly hair is to smother our hair with as many different hair products as possible to give it the necessary 'moisture boost' it needs but actually we are making it worse. What we are actually doing is making our hair greasy which results in it looking dirty, in need of a wash and making our hair feel weighty. As the advert says- "its a catch 22 situation"
