Review: Garnier 7 Days Hydrating Body Lotion for Normal Skin

I've always known of this product, seen it on the shelves, not thought much of it. I've walked straight past it and chosen something else. Can't say I even considered trying it out, for no good reason really. One day about 3 weeks ago I was in H&M and saw this for 1.99 Euros! Brilliant, I thought, as I was just out of body lotion anyway..

Haul: Soap&Glory Haul!

Or rather, a Boots haul actually, I just happen to love Soap & Glory products!

Review: The Body Shop Wild Rose Nourishing Hand Butter for Mature Skin

I first got introduced to The Body Shop's hand creams about a year ago when a friend bought me their popular hemp hand cream. I was quite pleased with it, though wasn't too fond of the scent. When I then saw they had just released a few new scents I excitedly picked a few up, one of them was the Wild Rose Nourisihing Hand Butter for mature skin. I bought it with the intention of using it as an over night treatment and so got the cotton gloves with it as well.

All Used Up: Soap & Glory Clean On Me Creamy Clarifying Shower Gel

Having almost bought this on several occasions, being somewhat put of by the mega sized bottle (what if I didn't like it?) I finally took the plunge at the end of last summer. The "Built-in Body Lotion" is what got me as I have extremely dry skin on my back, arms and legs and while applying body lotion after every shower deals with it, the thought that I just might not always have to was quite appealing..

NOTD: Rimmel Professional Finish in 393 Desire

Favourites: April 2012

These are products that I have used and loved this month. It could be new purchases or old re-discoveries. There won't always be one in every category, as this is not for what I've been using, but products that have really stood out and that has gotten me excited about make up and skincare. Sometimes I might include things from other categories if I feel it is worth a mention, but not always.

Review: Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser and Instant Boost Skin Tonic

Anyone following any british beauty blogs or youtube gurus will have heard these mentioned time and time again. They seem to become everyone and their mothers holy grail cleanser and the one everyone seems to eventually return to. I was of course intrigued like the rest of you and bought my own "starter kit" almost a year ago.

Review: Avène Extremely Gentle Cleanser

If you have sensitive skin, Avène is a brand you will have heard mentioned again and again. Almost all of their products, like so many french pharmacy skincare brands, are suitable for, if not targeted at, sensitive and irritated skin. Their Thermal Water spray  (Eau Thermale) is a favorite of mine, and this cleanser is supposed to be "Rich in thermal spring water" so I figured I'd give it a go!

Guide to: Eye creams or "My eye creams and why I need all of them"

Let me just start by saying that I did not go out and buy all of these in one day, I also did not plan on purchasing all of these, it just kind of happened over time and while using them realised I couldn't live without an eye cream in each of these categories.

Haul: Marseille Haul!

As usual I have picked a lot of stuff up on my latest travel, some stuff I needed, some not so much, though I convinced myself of so rather brilliantly I must say!
