Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Radiance Shot & Dragon Blood Hyaluronic Shot

Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Radiance Shot & Dragon Blood Hyaluronic Shot are the perfect duo to exfoliate and hydrate. I love the stylish packaging and the click activated pipettes give just the right amount of product needed. There are other ranges with the ‘fix’ label such as ‘Kale Fix’ (not joking) and ‘Teen Skin Fix.’

Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Radiance Shot (£19.95, 30ml)

This containis fruit acids, amino acid derivatives and aloe vera to gently exfoliate, brighten, and reduce uneven pigmentation. This can be mixed with moisturiser or used directly. It is thought that Glycolic Acid can make skin sun sensitive so sunscream should be worn when going outside. Sometimes my skin can become flushed just through gently cleansing but I’ve never noticed it react to this, even when using it every other day. I would say – for my skin – this is gentle and very effective. After just one use of this my skin feels smoother, products are absorbed better, foundation glides on easier and my skin is naturally more radiant, so I’m using less makeup anyway. This really is the simplest and quickest way to naturally exfoliate that I’ve found.

Rating 5/5

Dragon Blood Hyaluronic Shot (£24.95, 30ml)

This contains 50% hyaluronic acid and ‘Dragons Blood’ sap from the Croton Lechleri tree, which apparently promotes skin regeneration, prevents environmental damage to the skin and calms inflammation. I cannot attest to it’s inflammation calming properties, as when my skin is flushed from food intolerance or hot or cold water it is going to stay red for at least an hour! The product sinks into skin quickly, feels unnoticeable on the face but slightly tacky on my palms. It does make my face look hydrated but I still need to moisturise if I want to apply foundation, or if my face is especially dry. In hot weather I prefer to use a light moisturiser combined with this underneath as it boosts the moisturisers effectiveness, without making makeup slide off.
