Jurlique #12daysofGlow : Aromatic Rose Duo

I have been so excited to get on my laptop and write this post for weeks now and now it's finally time - wahoooo!

 It was back in October when Jurlique first started talking Christmas to me, I blooming love Christmas and the lovely lot at Jurlique alike so to be asked to join in with a fabulous December campaign of their's was so exciting!

I've used Jurlique products before (you may remember this post) and, of course, fell in love with them straight away! They are one of those 'how have I not tried anything from these people before' kind of brands!

Anyway back to what this is all about! This year Jurlique have created some amazing goodies and gift sets full of their best selling products and with Christmas just around the corner, it's all about giving the gift of glow!

Know someone who's a skincare addict? Want to treat a loved one? Or maybe fancy something new for yourself? Then keep on reading! 

For 12 days this month a different blogger is going to be sharing with you one of Jurlique's fabulous sets .... and I, Kirstie, here at A Yellow Brick Brick am Day number 2!

So sit back, relax and check out the Aromatic Rose Duo! 

Aromatic Rose Duo*

The rose range was what I tried before from Jurlique and I love love loved it so I had high hopes for this lovely duo!

The set comes in a lovely gift box and as you can see from photos at the top, came beautifully wrapped! I love the little touches like from companies, especially if you are giving i to someone as a present!

In this duo you get the 125ml Rose Hand Cream and the Roll-on Rose Fragrance Oil.

First I'll talk about the hand cream! 

This tube is huge! Well... it's 125ml but it feels so big compared to all the other hand creams I own, which is fab! I always carry a huge handbag so the fact it is a little bigger doesn't bother me in the slightest! 

The cream itself is so thick and creamy, without being greasy at all it is seriously lovely! I use so much hand cream at this time of year, the cold weather makes my hands so dry and working with the public I tend to over-use that trusty anti-bac aswell which causes havoc with my hands too, so hand creams are life savers!

The scent is beautiful, just like my other rose products from Jurlique, the smell is soft but strong and lasts for ages! 

I can imagine my Mum keeping this cream by the sink for everyday use.... she always has hand creams near the sink and I know she would LOVE this!

The other half of the duo now and the roll on fragrance which comes in a convenient 11ml bottle.

The powerful rose scent includes top notes of Rose Wardia and Rose Anatolia blooms and the smell is so long lasting on the skin!

I find the smell of rose really soothing and calming and it has really been helping me relax after a hard days work recently! As you may have seen earlier this week I talked about products that have been helping me sleep better.... this is one of them!

 After having a shower I have been putting this on my pulse points and relaxing on the sofa! If you wanted to have it as an everyday fragrance it's also great  layered with the other rose products Jurlique has to offer!

Convenient, quick and easy this is a fabulous product!

Worth £50 in value this gift box saves you a whopping £15 being only £35! Click here to check it out! A gorgeous present for a loved one this Christmas (or yourself!), I must say both these products have been such a luxury treat for me.

Jurlique : Rose Collection Picks

I told you they'd be more of this brand coming your way! If you haven't seen my review of Jurlique's amazing Rose Silk Finishing Powder then click here and have a cheeky read!

This brand is a new one in my life and after falling in love with the finishing powder it wasn't long before I was hooked on these other Rose beauties from their collection.

Jurlique Rose Moisture Plus Daily Moisture Balancing Serum*, Rosewater Balancing Mist* & Rose Love Balm*.

First up I'm going to talk about the newest product in the rose range and that is the daily serum. 

This product comes in a gorgeous glass bottle with an easy pump action. I've found just one pump is enough to cover my whole face - I started with two pumps and it just seemed too much. 

It has the lovely floral rose scent which, like I've said before, I find so relaxing and calming.

 I have been using this every morning (I know it says morning and night but I have another night serum I use) under my Nivea Hydration primer and it gives my skin a soft feel and lovely healthy glow.

My skin has felt hydrated and thankfully less oily! This is a product I'm definitely going to carry on using throughout the summer! 

It is £40 which for me is slightly expensive for a 30ml bottle but with only using 1 pump a day I know this one bottle will last me months so it does seem totally justified.

Now onto the Rosewater Balancing Mist....

This is product that is just made for summer and hot weather! 

A light mist in a petite 50ml glass bottle. This stuff is so refreshing and fresh on the skin and really wakes you up. 

The rosewater scent is beautiful and it is perfect to spray on your face and neck/chest area when you need to a quick pick me up! 

I have been lovely using this in the evenings, especially when I get home from work as a refreshing wake up call!

This is also great if you work indoors with alot of a/c too or a prone to getting dry skin that needs hydrating! The mist is £16.50 and would also be perfect for taking on holiday!

Lastly we have the Rose lip balm! This was the product I was uneasy about trying initially,  I just wasn't sure about having the potent rose scent as a lip product!

After trying it out though it is alot more bearable than I imagined! This balm is pretty thin so just leaves a slight gloss to the lips but the real bonus is how soft it makes your lips - this is perfect for your handbag to carry round all the time - especially if your prone to dry, chapped or sore lips!

So there we go, some more beauts from Jurlique - I am now dying to try out the rest of their products, I've been on their website and my wishlist is never ending!

POTW #15 : Jurlique Rose Silk Finishing Powder

Product of the week time once again! I find it crazy how fast every Friday seems to come round! Weeks are just flying by this year - how is it nearly June?! It will be Christmas and winter coat time again before we know it!

Sorry... I'll get back to the subject of this post and that subject being .... my Product Of The Week (duh!) which is the fabulous Rose Silk Finishing Powder from Jurlique!

Jurlique Rose Silk Finishing Powder*

This one of a few products from this brand which have recently made their way into my life and onto my face! So bare that in mind as I'm sure you'll be seeing alot more from them on A Yellow Brick Blog in the next few weeks or so! (To get a quick load down on this brand - click here!)

This is a gorgeous loose finishing powder from Jurlique's fabulous Rose collection. I've never been one to pick out Rose as a scent for products - if it has been an option for me before it hasn't been something that I've been drawn too.
Well... I was missing out wasn't I!
First up I'll talk about the scent. Guess what - it smells like roses! 
Yes, it is very floral so if you aren't a fan of potent scents like that then this stuff (and particular range) definitely isn't for you.
 My opinion however is....... I love it! I find the scent so calming and it makes me feel refreshed and ready for the day when I pop it on.

I've been using this stuff every day as a last step to my make-up routine.
 I don't own to many loose powders as I find them quite messy and I find a pressed powder alot easier to work with but the packaging of this powder is great and I haven't made alot of mess at all - phew!
 For me though, I don't find a puff great for application so I give the pot a little shake to disperse some of the product out and use my big powder brush from real techniques too sweep it all over my face.

It is a very lightweight powder and you don't need alot to cover your whole face. It helps give my face a smooth finish and a has lovely soothing feel - top marks Jurlique.
 I've also noticed how much better and brighter my complexion has been throughout the day - alot more "radiant" shall we say and some usually oily patches have become less noticeable!

Even thought this is a newbie in my make-up collection it is firmly staying in my everyday make-up routine from now on!
