Hello all!
Today I thought I would continue on with my posts on my current favourite products, and today it is my favourite skincare products!
Garnier Moisture Match (Wake Me Up) Gel:
Garnier brought out a few months ago their moisture match range of creams. They also gave you the chance to sample all of the available types for free if you requested a sample pack on their website - which I did!! I always have so much trouble when it comes to creams for my face as they usually break me out if they are too heavy or greasy/oily. But this one I got is a gel one, and it was the only one out of the samples I could get on with! It's called Wake Me Up, and it really does wake you up in the morning! I love the fact that this product is a gel formula and it doesn't linger on my skin. It absorbs really quickly into my skin and leaves me feeling fresh faced and wide awake! I love to use this once a week for a pick me up, when my skin is feeling dry and needing a freshen up!
Vaseline Cocoa Radiant Lotion:
I love Vaseline products in general, but vaseline combined with cocoa...omg a dream lotion for me! I really like this lotion a lot. I brought it to try it out and it was only £2.99 so I wasn't expecting much. But I find this lotion really leaves my skin feeling hydrated and moisturised! It don't linger on top of the skin and the scent isn't too overpowering either. But a little of this product goes such a long way and I find it does an amazing job for my skin.I have really been liking to use this now that the colder weather is settling in and for £2.99 I really think it's fantastic.
Vichy Idealia Smoothing And Illuminating Cream:
Now I harp on about this product all the time, whether its here on my blog or even more so in my Youtube videos! But I really do like this cream a lot. I use it in the morning before I apply my makeup, and it leaves my skin looking super dewy and refreshed. It smells like raspberries as well which is a big bonus! I originally tried this in a Glossybox, and immediately feel in love with it. But being £22 it took me a while to bite the bullet and purchase the full size. But of course I did and I am so glad I did. Really worth every penny and it looks pretty smart too! You can usually sample this in most boots stores so defiantly worth checking out!
Elf Makeup Mist & Set Spray:
This setting spray was a trial buy for me. I hadn't heard many people rave about this, and I needed to get a setting spray anyway, so it seemed ideal to purchase this and give it a go! It has aloe, green tea, cucumber and vitamins A,C & E in it, which a good thing because no one wants to be spraying nasty chemicals on their face. The smell isn't that nice, but the overall staying power of the product is amazing. It doesn't mess your makeup up when you first spray it on, and it dries really quickly. I find that my makeup stays on twice as long as normal and I have been loving to use this daily for the past month!
Palmers Cocoa Butter Gradual Tanner:
Again this a product I like and rave about alot! I really love this so so much and I wear over my normal fake tans as it's that good! This is around £5 and is basically a gradual tanner and a moisturiser in one. I would say you 100% need to apply this with a tanning glove/mitt as it does make your hands go super orange, even if you do wash them after! I love this for a natural bronzed look. Being paled skinned sometimes proper fake tans can look OTT on me, but this gradual tan looks so natural and you get a good colouring after one application. It also moisturises the skin which is a bonus, and I have enjoyed wearing this when I was to look a little bit more tanned. It doesn't go on streaky and it smells nice too!
Hello all!
So glad the nice weather has finally arrived after all the rain, woohoo! Anyway, I have a few of my favourite products I would like to share with you, as my 'July Favourites'.
I have recently started using these Tresemm'e products for my hair and they are fab! They are the straightening spray and the glossing spray in the smooth range. Boots have a deal on at the moment for Tresemm'e products, 2 for £8, so go check it out. But usually these are around £4.99. It's always a good idea to use products like this for your hair, especially when you are someone like me who always straightens mine!! They have Argan Oil in them as well, so you know your hair will be in tip-top condition!
I am really liking these two yummy products at the moment. The strawberry body butter is from The Body Shop, and I got it in a set but I guess you can buy it on it's own. I think it's around £3. It's such a brilliant product to use, especially since the weather is starting to get warmer (finally!). It smells really nice and obviously like strawberry's, and is a nice creamy mousse. It goes on so easily and makes you feel nice and refreshed. As for the cocoa vaseline, I LOVE! I've always used the plain one, but just recently decided to get this one and I am in love. It's around £1.99 from Boots, but of course you can get it from most places at around the same price.It's so nice to have a yummy lip care product that smells lush and cares for your lips. It's cheap and so handy, plus smells gorgeous! I feel a fool for not buying it sooner!
These two E.L.F. products you may have seen in one of my previous blog posts, but I am really loving them at the moment too. In case you haven't seen the last post I talked about them in, the minerals powder was £5, and the lip plumping gloss in fushia fanatic was £1.50. Both from www.eyeslipsface.co.uk
I really like the powder at the moment as it's feels so light on my skin and gives a brilliant coverage that never fails to impress me every time!! You don't even need to use much product so it lasts quite a while, and it also gives me a nice tanned glow. And I am still in love as ever with the lip plumping gloss, I use it every day! In fact I need to get another one, I've used it that much :/ !! Such brilliant products and totally recommend to everyone.
These are my last two products that I am really liking this month. The chocolate face mask is fab, only £1 and available widely. Such a good idea to do a face mask in a chocolate flavour, YUM!! Smells gorgeous, cheap as chips, and leaves you feeling fresh. I've heard they do a white chocolate version, so if anyone has tried that one then let me know what it's like as thats the next one I want to get! Most people are familiar with these face masks, but for those of you who haven't tried them, do it because they are brilliant. The Maxfactor Lasting Performance foundation is brill, really like this at the moment! It's usually £10 in the shops, but a little tip; get it off ebay, I got it for £6 - BARGAIN! It's feels so light and you don't need to use much product on your face, plus perfect coverage and gives a nice tanned glow. Recommend to all, as it is the perfect foundation for the summer!!
And FINALLY..... I want to share with you my outfit of the day.....
Nice summer casual outfit. Top from H&M - £12.99 (see my previous blog post on this). Leggings from Select - £4. Sandals from Select - £7. Necklace from New Look - £8. Carigan from Primark - £6.
Bag was from New Look but was given as a present but I think is around £25.
Hope you enjoyed this blog, speak soon! xx
