The Body Shop - Haul/Review

Bonjour Bloggers!
So I have a little tiny haul that I have been trying to post for a while so it's now kind of a review because I have tried all of the products as I said it is a bit on the small side (only three things but enjoy!).

Pink Grapefruit Lip Butter
First Impressions- I picked this up because I needed a new lip balm but there was no lip balms I really liked. To be honest I'm not the biggest fan of lip butters, well the ones I have had past, but I thought I would have little look at them anyway. First I had a little feel of the texture (the testers of course) they felt creamier than lip balm but not as soft as lip butters. Next I smelt them all none of them smelt that original or like something I have not tried before except the pink grapefruit one. I instantly feel in love with the scent and grabbed one straight away.

Thoughts After Using - As winter is coming so it is more important to keep my lips nice and moisturised. I have been using this everyday, overall I am really pleased with the product but it does not smell as strongly as it did when it was new. It has quite a big dip in it. The butter as a nice shine to the lips, it has no tint but has a little bit of flavour. I am someone that will buy every lip balm/butter till I find the perfect one this one is very close to perfect!

Tea Tree Blackhead Exfoliating Wash 
First Impressions - After Looking up what things are best for spots Tea tree was top of the list (and witch hazel) I went into The Body Shop looking to buy some product from the tea tree range. I had also read on a blog that exfoliators are amazing for unblocking pores and giving the skin a deep clean. I don't generally have blackheads but it was the only exfoliator in the range so I picked it up, plus it smells great, not tested on animals and all natural.

Thought After Using - I have been using this every other day my face feels alot fresher and cleaner. A first it took a while for my to get use to it and found out how much pressure to apply and stuff like that. I do like this product but it's not totally amazing.

Tea Tree Skin Clearing Toner
First Impressions- I went in the shop to buy this product and it was the first thing in my basket, because I needed a new toner because mine is running very low, it was in the tea tree range and it smelt great. Again it was natural and not tested on animals. To be honest I have had my eye on this product for a while and have seen lots of good review so I had high hopes.

Thought After Using - I have been using this everyday and the smell lasts for a little while on your skin. I have used quite alot of toners and this is one of the cheapest but best I have tried. 

I would definatly check out the products I have mentioned I would recommend them all.

Also sells photo frames and little bits for your bedroom. Very shabby chic. Here is the link. Everything comes very nicely packaged in tissue paper and with a little note.

Perfect Night In

Bonjour Bloggers!
I was feeling slobbish and tierd. I needed a nice relaxing evening.
My favourite treats:
Jam doughnuts
Clarins body lotion
Herbal essences hair mask 
Clearskin blemish clearing face mask
Shopaholic abroad book
Dorothy Bubble bar from lush
Strawberry peach cobbler candle from for every body 


I ran the bath with the bubble bar. Then applied the face mask and hair mask before getting into the bath. I lit the candle and placed it in the corner of the bath. Put the doughnuts within arm length. Grabbed my book and enjoyed.
I came out of the bath so laid back I was horizontal.

Hair Repair!

Bonjour Bloggers!
Recently my hair has been really dry, weak and damaged due to build up of products and heat damage.I didn't really know what to do I looked over my favourite blogs to see if they had wrote anything there was nothing. I immediately stopped using wax and hairspray. I stopped using heat on my hair so leaving my hair to dry naturally and not curling or straightening my hair. Its was like hair rehab. I started to wash my hair with Herbal Essence Soft and Smooth, every other day which made a big difference. I used a hair mask twice in stead of once a week. I used a serum when i get out of the shower and in the morning on dry hair, Check the serum that it is possible to use on dry hair. I did this for about two weeks my hair felt alot better. I also brushed my hair after the shower as well. I hope this blog has been of use to you if you are having any problems with skin or hair please email me an I will try and help my email in in the contact me page! This week is the start the posting timetable so here is as promised is my Monday post
Please follow!!!

September favourites!

Bonjour Bloggers!
It's time to wake up Greenday becuase September has ended don't be sad here are my faves for this month!
The line up!

 Strawberry peach cobbler - Home baked candle (for.every.body candles)
Now it's colder there is nothing better than a candle to light the room. I'm almost sure that it's an american  does brand. This candle smells amazing not waxy. It does really smell like a freshly baked cobbler or when someone is baking something yummy and the smell drifts into the room you are in. It does smoke quite bad when first lit but after around a minute it's completely fine. 

 Tresemme - touchable finish, ultimate hold hairspray 
I have many reasons to love this hairspray but here are a few - it does not make your hair go rock hard and your hair still has movement. Give your hair a nice sheen. Holds for around 5 hours / I went to a party for about 5 hours and it held perfectly. Easily brushes out.
Available from boots, Asda, Morrisons, Tesco ect.....
 Witch - oil control foaming face wash
My spots have been really bad this month so I have been buying alot of  skincare products. Not all of them made a difference but this did. It significantly reduce the oil on in my T-zone therefore reducing the spots. available from boots, Superdrug and Morrisons (that I know of).

Max factor lip tint-05
Now it's autumn I have been wearing darker colour which can be a bit depressing I know! But i think i have found my new fave lip product. Lip tint don't stain or tattoo your lips and this one doesn't last 24 hours but they do last longer than a normal lip stick. Love this colour sort of a mix between pink and purple but deep and sheer weird but I do really like it.
Avon - blemish clearing peel off mask
As I said I have been having alot of trouble with my spots (mainly my forehead) this month. One of the unusual product I decided to order from Avon was a face mask. Never buying any skin products from and because it was only £2.40 to be honest I didn't have the highest hope but I was desperate so I gave it a try. At first it is really weird because it a purple gel that you paste onto your skin at night wait for it to dry which is like having botox and when you wake up you peel it off. After two days it made a big difference after four days my skin was completely clear i am now using it every other night. My best buy this month.

Sunday Summery!

Bonjour Bloggers!
Slap my wrists and send me to bed I'm really sorry things have so hectic and blogging was put on the back burner to be honest. On the positive side the weather has been amazing and I have been enjoying doing homework in the sun. I am having shopping withdrawals but I have been picnicking with my best friends we took over 1500 photos but I didn't really want to put pictures of my friends on blog just in case they don't want to be shown. At the picnic we played games including racing and piggybacks it might seem childish but picnics are really fun in the sun. They don't really cost much especially  if there are alot of you because you slip up the costs more. We had the picnic on the local park area. We managed to get one direction ticket which is amazing . Britain's next top model final was great congratulations Jade! Plus it's all hotting up on steps the reunion! Please tell everyone about this blog and follow if you like it when I reach 50 followers there will be a giverway!
