Feeling a bit blah? Sometimes, you just need a little beauty pick-me-up to feel a little better. Maybe tinting your lashes and brows does the trick. Perhaps using an exfoliator followed by a sheet mask.
There are so many things us girls in The Skin Care Clinic use to make ourselves feel good, whether it’s to get ready for a special event or just a Sunday night beauty ritual. Read this week’s staff review to see what products we love to use.

“There is nothing I like more than a tan. I live in the tropics, so I have a pretty decent year round tan, but I am very protective of my face, and so I cover it like a bee keeper. So when I want to have a nice even glow that makes my face look fresh and radiant, there’s only one product for me and that is the greatest face tan I have ever used in my life – Three Warriors Face Tan Aqua Mist.
There are so many reasons to love this face tan:
- The ease of use – just spritz over your face and neck. No tanned fingertips!
- It dries almost immediately – no stained pillowcases
- Easily layers for a deeper tan
- No yucky smell
- Develops quickly – be tanned in just an hour!
- Organic ingredients with no toxic chemicals
- Does not clog pores
- Hydrates and protects the skin with ingredients like Aloe Vera and vitamin C*
So for a quick pick me up, this face tan mist is a must. Spritz over your face and chest too, and get that sun kissed glow. I always cleanse, exfoliate and moisturise first.
And for a easy full body tan, Three Warriors have created the Body Tan Aqua Mist which requires ZERO rubbing in, and makes it easy to get bronzed in those hard to reach places – like your back.
*This product does not contain sun protection, so please use your daily SPF. ”

Sophie’s Instant Pick-Me-Up Ideas
“When asked to pick out a product that provides an instant glow, SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic popped right into my mind. This Vitamin C antioxidant serum, loaded with vitamin E and ferulic acid, has completely transformed my skin. It’s like a magic potion that’s fighting off all those pesky signs of ageing, especially from sun damage! I absolutely love being outside in the sun and lucky for me CE Ferulic is another layer that protects my skin from environmental nasties like UV rays, ozone, and pollution.
What I love most is that it suits various skin types and concerns, including my combination skin. It does a brilliant job at plumping up my skin, and leaves my complexion glowing! And get this – the effects last for days! Once I apply it, I know I’m covered for a minimum of 72 hours. However, I apply it every morning so my skin gets the best results!
In a nutshell, SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic isn’t just a serum; it’s my skin’s BFF! The results are worth every cent! Having smooth and glowing skin is a must for me! So, if you’re on the hunt for a skincare game-changer, this serum is the one you don’t want to miss out on.“

Pip’s Instant Pick-Me-Up Ideas
“Having young kids definitely takes away any ‘me’ time. While I fight to keep it, even having a cuppa without being asked to ‘help’ with something is a treat. This year I’ve been travelling with my family in our caravan. This is a HUGE treat, but we’ve discovered there’s even LESS down-time than at home. Being with the kids 24/7 really just means we’re constantly making food, cleaning up and finding the band-aids.
When one of the kids have a bad night, we all have a bad night… and playing catch-up isn’t easy. Hiding in the house is no longer an option… we’re always surrounded by people and taking pictures. So, instead I have a quick pick-me-up routine that get’s me back on track (or at least makes me look human). There’s not much time for a full pamper session, so instead I have a few key essentials. The big one is Skinbetter Science Tone Smart. I brought this on our trip as a trial, and I’m so grateful I did! It’s a compact foundation with SPF that changes it’s tone to your skin. I started off pale and pink and now have more colour. The foundation has changed as we’ve travelled and still looks ‘right’ even though I’ve changed!!! It adds a touch of warmth and conceals my flaws, leaving me feeling photo-ready even if on the inside I’m a tired mess. I then finish with the FYNE Mascara, as it’s waterproof, so no matter how much I rub my eyes when I’m tired, I still look okay!
Pip’s quick pick-me-up routine;
- Aspect Illuminating Polish
- Aspect Super Moisturising Complex
- Skinbetter Science Tone Smart
- FYNE Mascara
This isn’t as relaxing as my old facial routine at home (mask & serums), but as a quick pick-me-up before a day of travel and photos it’s a gem.”
