My thoughts on Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

June 21, 2018      2 Comments

Hello, Darlings!
I must admit in the past I sometimes didn’t take my makeup properly and committed the sin of using wipes to take my makeup off. I never knew what the big hype about it was until I started using micellar waters and makeup removing pads and things like that.definitelyinatly converted to using micellar waters in my skincare routine.
Garnier is a very well known brand that sells a variety of products including hair care, hair dyes and skincare products too. I have always like Garnier products because their products have a nice and fruity scent which is just lush don’t you think?

Lush Brazened Honey Fresh Face Mask Review

June 14, 2018      1 Comment

Hello, Darlings!
I love treating myself to face masks and following on from last months post on the body shops British rose fresh plumping mask I decided to try something new. I have tried a few Lush face masks in the past but it been a while since my last one so got myself a one I haven’t tried before and one that a lush employee recommended to me.
Choosing this face mask took me about 20 minutes to decide because they all sound amazing and all have different benefits.

My Morning Skincare Regime for Spring

May 22, 2018      Leave a Comment

Hello, Lovelies!
If you asked me a few years ago what my morning skincare routine was I would have told you quite simply that I didn’t even have one and I was lucky if I used a Nivea cream all day never mind waking up with a routine. Now I have a simple routine every morning and I just love it as it keeps my skin feeling soft and hydrated and it also sets me up for the day as I feel fresh.
I have tried a few brands over the years and obviously as new products come out and also you discover more brands they could also feature in my routine but at the moment these following products are must-have products for my morning skincare regime.
morning skincare routine
Superdrug Vitamin E Eye Cream 15ml – £2.99
Superdrug skincare products are definitely underestimated but to me, they are absolutely amazing. This eye cream is perfect for the delicate skin on the eye area and the formula is cooling and no greasy. This eye cream contains glycerin that helps nourish the eyes. I love this as it works well on my under eyes and its cooling; a perfect wakeup call.
Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub 25g – £5.95 
I am sure a few of you will be wondering why on earth are they a lip scrub on a morning skincare regime? Well for me personally it is a must as it preps and polishes lips ready for makeup application. Even on days, I don’t wear makeup this is a must as it helps keep my lips feeling soft and avoids them from getting dry and cracked.Superdrug Naturally Radiant Cream 75ml – £5.99
This cream is formulated with 15 SPF and is formulated with energising complex infused with kiwi fruit and mulberry extract which helps revive skin radiance and even skin tone. I love how light this feels on the skin and how soft it leaves my skin with its lots of ingredients that feed the skin. This cream is a bargain price and works wonders on the skin, I would recommend Superdrug skincare to anyone.

Dr Botanicals Morrocan Rose Superfood Facial Oil 15ml – £29.90
I don’t use this every day but I do use this when my skin needs a little more TLC. This facial oil is full of minerals and vitamins that work together to rejuvenate, renew and protect the skin. The active ingredients in this oil are; Vitamin C which stimulates collagen production. Vitamin A is a powerful antioxidant which aims to rejuvenate the skin, even skin tone and signs of ageing. It also has almond oil which nourishes the skin to brighten the skin.
The Body Shop Rose Petal Face Gel Toner 250ml – £9.50
I just love the fact that this toner is enriched with real rose petals and contains no alcohol. This leaves my skin feeling soft, soothed and replenished. I like to apply this just after I wash my face in the morning with a cotton wool pad in the morning. The smell of this is just lovely.

The Body Shop British Rose Fresh Plumping Mask | Review

May 5, 2018      4 Comments

Hi Darlings!
I am a big fan of face masks and I usually use one every week as my skin needs a well-needed boost as my skin can get very dry in areas as my skin is combination skin. I have used so many different types of face mask from a few different brands and I always come back to the body shop masks as they work wonders for me. I just had to see what the British Rose fresh plumping mask was like as it’s made for skin that needs quenched and re-plumped with moisture.

Trying the Lush Sleepy Body Lotion – Did it help me sleep?

April 19, 2018      3 Comments

 
 
Hello, Lovelies! 
I hope you are all well? I am a big fan of Lush products and I have been for a fair few years now. I have had many products I have loved and many products I want to try. I heard so much fuss going on about Sleepy which is apparently brilliant for helping to get so sleep ( not much problem for me because I sleep so easily)
Lush is a very well known brand and is available online and instore in the UK and also around the world too. Lush is a is very passionate about being cruelty-free and all of their products are either vegetarian or vegan-friendly.
I love the packaging of the skincare at Lush and sleepy is no different. It comes in a variety of sizes, I chose the 95g option which cost me £7.95 but I wish I got the larger size 215g at £13.95 because I have almost finished it all already. After all, it works wonderfully well as I will explain more in detail as the post goes on.
So this lotion is made with a gentle oatmeal infusion with calming lavender flower and the beautifully scented Tonka absolute. I don’t know if everyone will agree with me but it smells like a sweet biscuit scent which isn’t overpowering but just right.

But does it actually help you sleep?

Now it may be all well and good that it smells heavenly but how does it work on the skin and does it actually help you sleep?  Well, in my opinion, it helped me have a much smoother sleep and I was asleep very quickly not long after applying this before bed. It also works wonders for my sensitive skin. This is the perfect go-to whole body moisturizer as it softens and hydrates the skin effortlessly while making you smell wonderful at the same time.

Breakfast 🥞 One of my go to breakfasts in the Breakfast 🥞 

One of my go to breakfasts in the morning has to be porridge. I love as it’s filling and you can make so many yummy combinations with it. My favourite at the moment is @thegreatbritishporridgeco with strawberries, @arlaprotein strawberry protein yogurt and some granola from @verival_uk for some crunch.
