Hand Pack!



I have been through several packets now. It's always nice to pamper yourself every now and then. Ok, I'm not going to lie and say that these hand packs work miracles but they're definitely comforting to use. There's a lot of product in the gloves and it has a pleasant scent. My hands always feel softer after using them but obviously, the effects aren't that long lasting. The best way to keep your hands feeling soft is to use a decent hand cream on a daily basis! You can still use your phone/ipad whilst using this hand treatment which is definitely a bonus. I hate having to sit still and not being able to move when I'm "pampering" myself. All in all, I quite like this product and will continue to purchase in the future. This hand pack can be bought at Home Bargains if you're interested!

Molton Brown Purifying Grapeseed Anti-Oxidant Shower Gel.



I've always seen Molton Brown around in shops but I never really made the effort to check out their product ranges. I received this as a gift and I was excited to try it out. I was very pleased with the product. It has a pleasant aroma, and if I had to describe it in words, I would say that this shower gel smells like men, but in a good way! I did feel a difference in the texture of my skin after using this and so, I have decided to try out more of Molton Brown's products. Unfortunately, I have tried to purchase this again but no matter where I go, I just can't seem to find this particular one. As far as I am concerned, the brand must have stopped producing this shower gel. However there are many other types of body washes which they currently sell so I would definitely recommend checking them out. It is kind of luxurious for a shower gel but it makes having a shower a pleasant experience!

Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion.

Why is it that I always fall ill during the busiest periods of my life? Why? I really do have the world's worst immune system...ever. It's a sad story.

Anyway...let's get back to the topic...



Recently I've been using this body lotion. I have never used any of Aveeno's products until now. For its price, I'm quite impressed. I do feel that it has improved the texture of my skin and I like how it isn't strongly fragranced like many other body creams/lotions. It states that it is fragrance free but there is still a slight fragrance, but don't worry, you'll barely notice it! It definitely keeps the skin moisturised and overall is a good, affordable product.

Review: Foot Pack.



It's 3am in the morning but I just have the urge to blog. 
My feet have been so dry lately! So they definitely needed some sort of pampering! I've been stocking up on these foot packs ever since I discovered them. It's actually quite hard to find these kind of foot masks in the UK. My feet always feel so soft after using them. However, it's one of them products that you have to constantly use...as the effects don't seem to be long-lasting. They're so much more convenient than having to buy a pair of moisturising socks, and having to apply a load of cream on before you slip them on. All in all, I think it's a good product and definitely worth repurchasing. You'll notice a slight difference when using them, but just don't expect any miracles!

I bought this foot pack from Home Bargains, and they were 99p per pack when I last went! (Sorry, I can't provide a link because they don't seem to be available on the website.)

RMK Body Cream!


Yes, it's limited edition so it won't be on sale anymore. However, I would still like to review the product as it's from one of my favourite skincare brands, RMK. Although the packaging looks cute, I think it could have been made to look a little more luxurious. However, that is just my personal opinion. The product itself is good as it is very moisturising. It has a lovely citrus (lemon) scent however, the scent does not last forever. All in all, it did what it was supposed to do so I don't really have anything bad to say about the product! RMK should try introducing a full range of body products rather than having the odd launch every now and then!

St. Ives Apricot Body Scrub Review!


I used to use the facial scrub so I thought I'd try out the body scrub. I have oily/combination skin so I break out a lot (yes, both face and body). This St. Ives apricot scrub does give you that "deep cleanse" feel and to some extent it helped calm down any blemishes. Obviously, it didn't get rid off all those bumps but I wasn't expecting it to. It has a pleasant scent but one thing I did not like was that it was quite hard to rinse off in the shower, compared to other body scrubs that I have previously used. It tends to "stick" to the skin. All in all, for a drugstore brand, this scrub isn't bad at all. I've personally had some good experiences with this brand.
