Peel #3 @ Miss Fox

The time had come for my third Aspect Jungle Brew Peel at Miss Fox Melbourne. 

I've been spacing them about between 3 weeks, but unfortunately the before and after photos from my last one are still on my camera, which The Husband has, and since he has it, there is a good chance they will never return.

You can read about my first peel here if you need a quick refresher on how I struggle to breathe through my mouth.

I ducked into Miss Fox yesterday after work and had had a terrible afternoon, so the ever so lovely Sarah-Jane was working double duty, not only was she treating my skin, she was also listening to me vent and huff and puff like it was going out of fashion! Two-for-One! 

The treatment took place in the Sapphire Spa Room.

I'm not sure why I have never taken photos of the rooms before considering how gorgeous they are. Very serene and relaxing. 

This little bad boy is helpful like a sturdy string whilst bungee jumping. 

The burn lasts for a few minutes and the fan really helps with it, not to mention it is cute!

I need a pillow with my name on it. 

I love products so seeing these all lined up so neatly brings a little flutter to my heart. Ahhh.

This dog is both creepy and adorable. 

My skin has been purging and all of the big angry flame throwing spear jabbing pimples are gone, with only the smaller bumpy ones remaining. These are much easier to cover and are not usually too red so this is definitely an improvement.

A week before my first peel someone said to me "Oh God!! What happened to your forehead?!!".

Well, it was just a pimple. Undecided who was more awkward after that, them or me. 

I needed to get some new products so here is my new regime:

Cosmedix Purity Clean

Purity Clean is a concentrated, ex-foliating cleanser infused with peppermint essential oil to cool the skin and stimulate circulation. This refreshing cleanser penetrates deep, eliminating cellular debris, de-congesting pores and hydrating, to keep normal to oily skin healthy and glowing.

Cosmedix Benefit Clean

Free of irritating sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), Benefit Clean is an immensely beneficial facial cleanser that’s gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin types. 

Formulated with gluconolactone (polyhydroxy acid), this antioxidant cleanser eliminates impurities, hydrates the skin and helps improve the appearance of photodamage

Cosmedix Mystic

Applied mornings or throughout the day as needed, this refreshing mist offers intense hydration and protection for sensitive and problem skin and can also be used to set mineral makeup.

Cosmedix have also recently lowered all of their prices. No, you didn't read that wrong - I said that they lowered their prices! Amazing.

Jane Iredale The Handi Brush 

Out of curiousity, how often do you wash your brushes? 

Jane Iredale Mineral Make Up PurePressed Base - Latte 

I'm not sure why I didn't buy this sooner considering how awesome my skin looks whenever Luna and the lovely ladies at Miss Fox do my make up using it. 

I cant wait to start the new regime, I'll report back.

I've met quite a few blog readers whilst at Miss Fox and this has me curious, have you been to Miss Fox? What did you have done? Did you see me there?

Anyhoo, it's early and I have to dash out for a blood test before work so adios! Have a good day

Miss Fox Blueberry Peel & New Products

I went back to my new favorite place on earth, Miss Fox today for a skin consultation, a peel and some new products.

I had a the Blueberry Smoothie Micropeel, as described here on their website:

This refreshing, antioxidant peel combines a gentle acid with active blueberry extracts to lightly exfoliate the skin without visible irritation. An exceptional treatment for oily, aceneic and sun damaged skin, this superficial peel smooths away surface impurities and invigorates the skin for a clear, youthful glow with light or no shedding. No preparation required. An excellent, non-aggressive alternative to mechanical micro-dermabrasion. A course of 6 weekly treatments is recommended.

Price: $130 for 45 Minutes.

There was no pain what so ever, I loved it!!

I also got to see my skin and the damage that lies underneath the visible skin on my face which includes oil, scarring and pigmentation. It was really interesting to see, and scary! My skin isn't too bad though so I won't be a hideous 55 year old.

My skin already looks so much more fresh and glowy. I'm impressed. I'll have to wait a few days to see the full results, and then I'll be making some more appointments.

I've also booked in my Shellac 'trial' for 30 July which is the same day I have my full wedding gown fitting, which is good timing so I can make sure the colour of the polish works..

I also bought some new products:

CosMedix Affirm - Antioxidant Firming Serum

$154

Reflect Antioxidant Moisturising Spray with SPF

$96

I rarely wear sunscreen, much to the beauty therapists dismay, so with the help of this little baby I am going to use it every day!!

Do you use sunscreen every day?! I hate the look of sun damage, obviously, so really should have started using sunscreen more religiously earlier and not went to the solarium, and sunbake for hours with coconut oil!!

An eye cream to trial..

I also bought this Illamasqua lipstick in 'Climax'.

Climax is a great almost natural colour, which if just smudged on to lips gives them that just bitten look, and if built up it provides a full on lip.

Climax Swatch

If I want to wear a liner underneath for the full lip look I use this Models Prefer in Ready Rose which I got from Priceline, it's a pretty good colour match considering I didn't have the lipstick with me.

Ready Rose Swatch

It looks like a bruise here, gross.
