DENTAL, LIPS & HANDS


Hi sweeties and welcome to my blog. I have 3 random product reviews for you in this post and here they are.



I received this product for Xmas. I always thought Pearl Drops was a tooth polish brand designed for smokers. I remember my Mum using it loads when I was a kid. It doesn't appear to be now and I thought I would try this anyway. The product has a lovely refreshing minty taste that leaves you feeling fresh, but without that zing that can be a little too intense in some products. I found the packaging a bit annoying as it's hard to squeeze the perfect amount out sometimes and there is probably some product still in there as you can't roll it up like squeezy tube toothpastes. I didn't notice any whitening after using this, but I do think the product itself is refreshing and smooth which makes it enjoyable to brush with. I am not sure if it has been re-named, but I have linked a similar product above.


I received this in a GlossyBox. Once a week or as needed massage a small amount on the lip area and remove with a damp cotton pad for exfoliated lips. This is a cream formulation with granules. It has quite a nice scent, but unfortunately it was too harsh for my lips. I ended up with very sore red lips. My friend loves it though and I am very sensitive on my lips which I find hard to keep soft and supple most of the time. I may try using this as a face exfoliator instead.

ASTONISH YOURSELF ALOE VERA & LOTUS HANDWASH

This handwash from the 99p Store has such a lovely neutral yet calming and uplifting scent. Very pure and natural. It's a great moisturising handwash that is a total bargain and I would repurchase it. Here are two other handwashes from this range I have reviewed in coconut and silke soft. There is also a yummy chocolate orange one too as well as a gorgeous milk & honey.

Have you discovered any toothpastes that actually whiten? What's your favourite lip exfoliator for sensitive lips? Also let me know your favourite handwash in the comments below.

Teeth & Lips

Helllooooooo :) It's me again back with a wee post. I have two products to review for you today that are for everyday use.


Top: Strawberry ChapStick SPF 10, £1.05

This lip salve had a lovely sweet, but not at all sickly strawberry scent. The texture of this product is very balmy. This kept my lips in pretty good condition. I would suggest perhaps keeping this in the fridge during the summer though when you are at home as it tends to melt and get a bit messy. Mine actually broke and fell off about half way through.

Bottom: Morrisons Total Care Fluoride Whitening Toothpaste

I think this was around the £1.00 mark. This was fine for everyday use, but it was a bit on the pasty side. I didn't notice any whitening benefits from this product, but to be honest I don't think any I have used have ever actually whitened my teeth. I did drop this when I used it a few times and the lid snapped off. A bit of a pain, but it was my fault really.

What are your favourite lip saviours as I do get dry, chapped lips? Also, have you ever found a whitening toothpaste that actually whitens? Let me know in the comments below.



Love to you all

 

August 2012 Empties

Hi Everyone. This week has gone really quick. I find it really hard to remember what day I'm in at the moment. Today I want to show you the products I have used up in August and my thoughts on them.







Left To Right:

Me To You 80 Handy Wipes Orange Scented, £1.00 From Poundland

Previously reviewed here.


Johnson's Baby Cotton Pads, 99p From 99p Stores

Previously reviewed here.

Beauty Formulas Deep Action Pore Cleanser, 99p From 99p Stores

This product is said to be suitable for all skin types. It's a cream cleanser that you simply squeeze onto cotton wool and wipe over the face morning and night. This was nice enough to use. It had a light blue colour to it which I think is quite unusual as most creams are white or cream in shade. This had a very gentle scent.

L'Occitane Angelica Hydration Cream, 99p From Ebay Plus Delivery

I received this product in my June 2012 JolieBox. This was a nice face cream to use. It felt very fresh and smooth on the skin.








Left To Right:

Aquafresh Extreme Clean Intense Rush Toothpaste, 48p through mysupermarket.co.uk

My fella brought this with him when we moved in together so we both used this. It is nice and minty as most toothpastes are. I'm not much of a fan of screw tops on toothpastes. I'm more of a flip top kind of girl.

2 x 100 Johnson's Cotton Buds, 41p for 200 buds from amazon.co.uk

Poundland used to sell these in packs of 200 buds for £1.00, but this is no longer the case :( I have found them much cheaper in the link above though :) Previously reviewed here.

Balea Shave Gel With Olive Oil For Dry Skin, 99p from 99p Stores

I received this from my Mum for Xmas. I know where it's from as I used to buy it for myself. This has a mousse type of formula, but it is a bit more smooth like a gel too. It works well for the price. There is not much of a scent to it.


I received these for Xmas from my fella's Mum. Previously reviewed here.

Gillette Razor, Price Unknown

I'm sorry I can't tell you the price of this product as I just picked it up on a trip to Morrison's recently and I can't find the receipt. It came in a pack of about 4 I think. I like the grip of this handle. It's made of plastic and rubber. These are not too sharp so I don't nick myself as easily as I would with the Bic razors, but it still does a good job.








Left To Right:

Boots Soltan Moisturising Aftersun Lotion, £4.25 in a pack with the suncare lotion SPF15 from ebay.co.uk

I think that fella of mine nicked this from his Mum when we moved. The second time I got badly burnt this year was in my garden after applying sun lotion throughout the day. I'm a sensitive soul don't ya know :( I was not amused and in need of some cooling relief. This lotion did feel very cooling. I think the packaging of this product has changed now or it may be a different product entirely as Boots is showing 'hydrating' creams in this range as opposed to this 'moisturising' one?

Boots Mango & Orange Blossom Shower Gel, £1.29 from Boots

Previously reviewed here.

Sanctuary Spa Covent Garden Foaming Cream Scrub, £3.99 plus delivery from ebay.co.uk

My fella bought me this a couple of Xmas' back as part of a gift set. This was a nice scrub that had a sheen to it, although it did not look shiny on my skin after use. I do like the scent and the size of the scrub particles. I did become sensitive to the body lotion from this range at Sanctuary which is why I put off using this, but this product did not cause a reaction on my skin at all.

Superdrug Essential Anti-Perspirant Deodorant, Was approx 69p, but I believe no longer available

Previously reviewed here.








Left To Right:

Caudalie Eaux Fraiches (Zeste De Vigne), £26.00 from uk.caudalie.com

I received this in my June 2012 GlossyBox. My thoughts are the same as my initial impressions in that post. Two friends at work said they liked this fragrance.


I think this is known as the Original fragrance from Juicy Couture. I have had this bottle for a few years now and believe me I have savoured every last drop. My fella bought me this in a gift set one Xmas that came with the body lotion and shower gel. I adore this fragrance. If I had to pick one scent for the rest of my life this would be it. I have had so may compliments when I wear this. Even from strangers. I used to save this mostly for going on evenings out as I didn't want to use it all up to easily. I would say that if you are looking to feel sexy, sultry and put together this is the scent for you. This is not child-like at all. I have tried and enjoyed many scents over the years, but this one never fails to make me feel like a sex kitten. I would be happy to receive this as a gift again this Xmas or even for my birthday in January, MASSIVE HINTS THROWN AT FELLA HERE ;) I will enjoy the necklace that is wound around the top of the bottle as a keepsake if nothing else.

JolieBox Nail File, Free with my June 2012 JolieBox

Who couldn't love a pink nail file. I have used this quite a bit, but it has worn out and is starting to bend near the middle so it's time to let it go.

Barry M Nail Paint in the shade 279 - Bright Pink, £2.66 with free delivery

NOTD post and review here.

Primark Ta Ta For Now Magic Undereye Concealer (Light), Unsure if still available?

Previously reviewed here.

Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Ultimate 16 Hour Wear Concealer (Light 2), £3.99 from Boots

'Collection 2000' is now known just as 'Collection' for reference. This is a really good concealer and for the price I would pick up again. It has a doe foot applicator. This tube has lasted me absolutely ages. I am very, very pale, but I got the shade Light 2 as the lighter shade was even a bit to light for me so if you are pale be sure to check out the testers first. This concealer covers blemishes well. I have a few red veins that need a little more coverage really, but for the average spot and/or bit of reddening this works really well. It goes on easily. I tap it in with my finger and it blends in with my foundation no problem. I use this under my eyes too and it does not crease. I does not go patchy or dry on my dry skin either. I could not tell you if this lasts 16 hours as I don't usually wear my make-up for more than about 12 hours when I'm at work, but it does a pretty good job for that long. The only bad thing about this product is the writing on the packaging. As you can see it has all rubbed off.

E.L.F. Waterproof Eyeliner Pen (Black), £1.50 from eyeslipsface.co.uk, $1.00 from eyeslipsface.com

Usually I am a massive fan of buying products from E.L.F., but this one I was not impressed with. I have tried this quite a few times as I don't like to give up on products easily, but compared to other eyeliner pens this one just doesn't do the job. The nib does not stay solid and precise to get that smooth, clean line, but more than that it's just not really black how I want it to be. It's like a faded black. The coverage is not that great as it skips over the skin on the eyelid. When I go back over the line to fill in the gaps it then takes a bit of the product off that I have already applied. I have heard some people rave about this pen and some that have similar woes to mine so it might be a bit of a hit and miss product? I'm glad I tried it, but it's not for me.




So that's all my empty products from the last month. I hope you found these wee reviews helpful.




Love to you all

May 2012 Empties

Hello Gorgeous. Yeah that's all of you. I really want to get into this post straight away today as I have so many products to talk about. I am going to share with you my thoughts on the products I used up in May.




Face Wash, Make-Up Removers, Face Serum & Face Cream




Left To Right:



Bliss Fabulous Foaming Face Wash, £18.40 for 197ml

This product came in my October Feelunique Beauty Box, Link. This face wash smells like bubblegum which I love. The exfoliating beads didn't do much for me so I used this purely as a face wash.  

Bioré Make-Up Removing Wipes

I need to get some more of these. I received these for free to review. You can find my review post here. The regular price for a pack of 25 wipes was £3.99 from Superdrug, but I have never seen them in my local store and I can no longer find them on the Superdrug website. Do any of you lovelies know where I can find them? Please help as they make me skin feel sooooooo smooth.

Taaj Himalaya Micellar Water, £16.97 for 500ml

I received this product in my February JolieBox, Link. This was an okay make-up remover. Just enough came out of the top when tipped onto a cotton wool pad. It's a bit too herbally for me as I started thinking about marinating something every time I used it. Just not for me. The last time I used this I managed to slice my finger quite badly by closing the lid which is now just healing :(

Caudalie Vinosource SOS Thirst-Quenching Serum, £26.10 for 30ml

I received this product in my April GlossyBox, Link. This was a bit too runny for me. I prefer more of a thicker face serum.

Tropic Skincare Skin Revive, £15.95 for 50ml

I received this product in my April JolieBox, Link. This was a nice enough cream to use on my face, but I am still undecided on whether or not I like the scent.




Multi-tasker, Shower Washes & Body Exfoliation




Left To Right:



DR Bronner's Magic Liquid Soap, £3.14 - £11.69 for 118ml - 944ml


I received this product in my February GlossyBox, Link. This can be used in a number of ways, but I only used it for three. As a toothpaste it is awful. It literally is brushing your teeth with liquid soap. Horrible! As a hand wash it was okay. I used this mostly as a shower wash. It is refreshing because of the peppermint, but do be careful when washing down below as it's extremely tingly. You have been warned!

Marks & Spencer La Maison de Senteurs Body Wash, £3.50 for 200ml

I received this product as a Xmas present from a friend, Link. I love this baby soft scent which I am a sucker for.

Rituals Yogi Flow Foaming Shower Gel Sensation, £6.50 for 200ml

I received this product in my December GlossyBox, Link. This foaming shower gel has such a gorgeous scent. So sensual and sexy.

Yardley Luxury Body Wash (English Lavender), £2.63 for 200ml

I received this product in my March JolieBox, Link. This was okay to use and has quite a spa relaxing scent to it.

Beyonce Heat Pearl Exfoliating Shower Gel

I bought this as part of a gift set in the January 2011 sales from ASOS. I love the scent of this. It's very warm and sensual. The exfoliating beads didn't do anything in the way of exfoliation for me so I used a separate body exfoliator. If you Google this product there are a few links for it, but you may want to purchase the gift set if you really like the scent.




Body Scrub, Shave Gel & Anti-Perspirant Deodorants




Left To Right:



Primark Ooh La SPA DO NOT DISTURB Salt Scrub

I really like the style of this jar. I think the rubber seal shown tucked behind the jar was purely to keep the product sealed in before opening as I never put it back after opening it. I think this was only a couple of pounds at the time, but I bought it so long ago. I don't think they sell this anymore, sorry. This did feel really nice to use though. It's a kind of sugar scrub. I do like the fresh scent of this too.

Gillette Satin Care Floral Passion Shave Gel, £3.25 for 200ml, $19.59 for a pack of six 7 ounce cans

I received this as part of my Xmas goodies, Link. I usually always buy the Gillete shave gels as I like how they feel on my skin. The scent of this product is floral but quite subtle.

Superdrug Essential Anti-Perspirant Deodorant

One of the products I received as part of my Xmas gifts, Link. The other can I purchased myself. I have previously reviewed this here. This is not shown on the Superdrug website, but I think it's around 69p for a 200ml can.



Body Creams & Scents





Left To Right:



Beyonce Heat Gold Sparkling Body Lotion

I bought this as part of the gift set that I mentioned earlier in this post. This has the same sensual scent. The gold sparkle in this product is very subtle.

Baylis & Harding England Skin Spa Body Butter, £14.99 for the Drawer Set

I received this as part of a gift set for my birthday, Link. This has a pretty rose, ylang ylang & patchouli scent. This was a nice cream to use. I would say it is more of a cream than a body butter as it has a looser consistency than a lot of body butters.

Hello Kitty Liberty Body Butter

I received this product as part of my Xmas gifts, Link. I previously reviewed this product here. This range was Limited Edition at Boots around Xmas time, but you may be able to find this on Ebay or Amazon.

Barbie Fab Floral Spritz, £3.10 for 100ml

I purchased this product from Avon, Link in October. I think the bottle is so cute and so pink, yay :) This was nice enough to use. I may keep the bottle to fill with water when I want to spray my make-up brushes to apply pigments.

Lolita Lempicka L'Eau en Blanc, £49.00 - £65.00 for 50ml / 100ml

I received this product in my May GlossyBox. Check out this Link for my thoughts on this product.

Fendi Fan Di Fendi Eau De Toilette, $67.00 for 1.7oz, £33.95 for 30ml / £57.00 for 75ml

I received this product in my March GlossyBox. You can check out this Link to see my thoughts on this scent.




Toothpaste, Lip Salves, Hand Creams & Foundation





Left To Right:



Macleans Total Health Toothpaste, £2.13 for 100ml

My Mum picked this up for me and it tastes fine. I prefer to buy whitening toothpastes, but Mum picked up the wrong one. I forgive you Mum. I prefer flip top lids on toothpaste though. I want to try some of the Crest White Strips so if you know the best place to order them please let me know and which ones out of the range work best for you.

Lip Lishuss! Vanilla Scent Lip Balm

I received this product in a pack of two as part of my Xmas gifts, Link. I have no idea where you can buy Lip Lishuss! products. This product is too vanilla for me. It is a lotion consistency with granules. I don't like how it feels applying it to my lips.

LP Skin Therapy (Lip Rescue Gel), £15.00 for 8ml

I received this product in my July GlossyBox, Link. When I first received this product I really liked it because of the orange scent and the doe foot applicator, but my boyfriend has been hating this. He doesn't like the way this feels on my lips and I kind of know what he means. It coats your lips with a kind of rubbery barrier and is no good at all if you want to apply any lip products over the top as they just won't adhere to your lips with this on. This has lasted ages though.

Sanctuary Spa Covent Garden Hand Lotion, £4.25 for 250ml

I really like the scent of this. It's a very calming spa aroma. The pump design is what really attracted me to this product. I had used the Body Lotion from this range for such a long time, but for some reason it started reacting badly to my skin. Other products in this range that I had already bought seem okay at the moment though. 

Arbonne FC5 Ultra-Hydrating Hand Creme

I received this item in my November GlossyBox, Link. This product felt so nice to use and the tube seemed to last forever. The tube is a little bland, but the product makes up for it. I would Google this product if you are interested in purchasing it as there are lots of links with various prices/sizes for it. 

Max Factor Ageless Elixir 2 in 1 Foundation + Serum SPF 15 - Natural 50, £12.99 for 30ml from Boots or Superdrug

I received this product for free and I have previously reviewed it here. My boyfriend commented about a month ago that I was looking a bit orange with this on so I went for the lighter shade of Light Ivory, but it's a bit too light for even me. My boss actually asked me if I was feeling okay the first time I wore it as I looked so pale. I have been mixing it with my Eyeko Tinted Cream and I think it works better.




The products I would buy in the future are:


Bioré Make-Up Removing Wipes

Marks & Spencer La Maison de Senteurs Body Wash

Rituals Yogi Flow Foaming Shower Gel Sensation

Primark Ooh La SPA DO NOT DISTURB Salt Scrub

Gillette Satin Care Floral Passion Shave Gel

Superdrug Essential Anti-Perspirant Deodorant

Sanctuary Spa Covent Garden Hand Lotion

Max Factor Ageless Elixir 2 in 1 Foundation + Serum SPF 15




So that's all of my May Empties. I hope you found this post useful. Which products have you been loving and loathing in May?




Love to you all

February 2012 Empties

Hello my Gorgeous Loves. I have a lot of products to show you that I used up in February so I will get straight to it.



Face







 Left To Right: Simply Pure Make-up Remover Wipes, Hello Kitty Wet Wipes, 2 packs of Primark Cotton Wool Pads, 2 packs of Superdrug 100% Cotton Wool Round Pads, Link :)



Simply Pure Make-up Remover Wipes



I received these wipes as part of my Xmas presents. Please see that post here. I have bought these before from the 99p Stores. These are sometimes sold as a pack on it's own or as 2 or 3 packs together, each containing 20 or 25 wipes. I sometimes use these on my face if I'm in a real rush, but mostly to give my make-up brushes a quick wipe each day after use. 



Hello Kitty Wet Wipes



I also received these as part of my Xmas presents. Please find that post here. I am not sure where these are from, but they work just as well for the uses as above. They are also Hello Kitty so bonus :)



2 packs of Primark Cotton Wool Pads



These came as part of my Xmas presents also. Please see that post here. The two packs came as one. I am not sure of their cost, but I wouldn't buy these for 1p. I have never known cotton wool pads like them. They fall apart as you use them leaving flakes of the pad all over your face. I spent more time removing that than the the dirt and make-up I was trying to remove initially. DO NOT BUY THESE EVER!!



2 packs of Superdrug 100% Cotton Wool Round Pads ~ £1.69 for 1 pack containing 100 pads



These pads work just fine. I would much rather use these than the Primark ones. These are currently on offer at 2 packs for £2.49.







Left To Right: Simple Kind To Skin Pore Minimising Toning Cleanser, Link :), Johnson's Baby Oil, Liz Earle Superbalm, Link :), No7 Protect & Perfect Beauty Serum, Link :), Clarins Extra-Firming Day Cream, Link :)



Simple Kind To Skin Pore Minimising Toning Cleanser



I could not find this on the Superdrug website so I'm not sure of the current price. Please see my December Empties post for my thoughts on this product, Link :) 



Johnson's Baby Oil



I either picked this up in the 99p Stores or Poundland. I have been using this as a cleanser/make-up remover. I would only recommend this if you are not going to apply make-up though so perhaps only at night as I don't think it would be a good base for make-up. The bottle does tend to leak if I knock it over which can be a pain. I have used it as a body moisturiser a couple of times too. 



Liz Earle Superbalm ~ £5.00 For 5g/£16.25 For 30g From lizearle.com



I received this product as part of my Anniversary present from my boyfriend last year. Please see that post here. I did not like using this on my lips as it did nothing for me. My lips are very sensitive and flaky and it did not remedy this so instead I used this on my face as a scrub. The texture and scent when applied to the face may not be for everyone, but I found it good to use as a face scrub as the granules are not harsh.



No7 Protect & Perfect Beauty Serum ~ £19.50 From Boots Pharmacy & boots.com for 30ml



Please see my December Empties post where I previously reviewed this product, Link :)



Clarins Extra-Firming Day Cream ~ £46.00 for 50ml from clarins.co.uk



I received this product in my January GlossyBox. Please see that post here. This is a nice cream, but I would not pay this price for it.



Body






Left To Right: Radox Limited Edition Eastern Spirit Shower Therapy, Link :), Radox Moisture Boost Shower Cream, Link :), Mitchell & Peach English Growers Shower Wash, Link :), Sweet Snuggles Chocolate Vanilla Shower Cream, Gorgeous By Gok Body Wash



Radox Limited Edition Eastern Spirit Shower Therapy ~ £1.99 For 250ml from boots.com



I received this as part of my Xmas presents also. Please see that post here. If you like a bit of an exotic scent to your shower gel then you will probably like this. It is Limited Edition though so stock up if you like it :)



Radox Moisture Boost Shower Cream ~ £1.99 For 250ml From boots.com



I also received this as part of my Xmas presents. Please find that post here. I used this product before receiving it for Xmas too. It has a very creamy, subtle scent to it.



Mitchell & Peach English Growers Shower Wash ~ £20 For 250ml from mitchellandpeach.com



I received this product as part of my December JolieBox. Please see that post here. It's an okay scent, but not very distinctively girly. I do not think it's worth the price.



Sweet Snuggles Chocolate Vanilla Shower Cream



I received this as part of my Xmas presents as well. Please find that post here. This smells exactly as described. Really nice and I like the packaging too. I know this range had lots of products in Superdrug at Xmas, but I can't find this now on the website.



Gorgeous By Gok Body Wash



Yet again I received this for Xmas. Please see that post here. This range has come out for the last couple of years at Xmas and I love it. The scent of this is gorgeous and I would be happy to receive products from this range every year :)






 Left To Right: Sanctuary Body Scrub, Link :)Link :), Sweet Treats Raspberry Bath Salts, 2 Cans of Superdrug Essential Anti-Perspirant Deodorant, Etro Fragrance (Musk), Link :), Eau De Soap & Glory Parfum, Link :)



Sanctuary Body Scrub ~ £5.25 For 200ml From thesanctuary.co.uk Or boots.com



I received this product one Xmas before I started blogging. It is a nice body scrub with a very natural scent. The granules are not too harsh on the skin.



Sweet Treats Raspberry Bath Salts



I also received this for Xmas. Please see that post here. I don't think this product is available any longer, sorry. I love the little spatula used to sprinkle this in my bath. The scent is really nice, but I do miss bath bubbles with this product. Cute packaging though.



Superdrug Essential Anti-Perspirant Deodorant



I received these 2 products as part of my Xmas gifts also. Please see that post here. I was purchasing this product myself prior to Xmas already. Please find my previous review of this product here. I could not find it on the website, but this product is available from Superdrug.



Etro Fragrance (Musk) ~ £61.50 For 50ml/£79.50 For 100ml From houseoffraser.co.uk



I received this product in my November GlossyBox. Please find that post here. This is a nice scent, but I'm not crazy about it. I don't think it's worth the price to be honest.



Eau De Soap & Glory Parfum ~ £16.50 For 50ml From soapandglory.com



I purchased this product in a January sale some time ago from asos.com as part of a gift set. I think the bottle is adorable. I would say the scent is sexy with a powdery old-school feel.






Left To Right: Deadsea Spa Magik Silky Smooth Body Lotion, Link :), Sweet Snuggles Creme Caramel Body Cream, Hello Kitty Liberty Body Butter, Gorgeous By Gok Rich Moisturising Body Butter, Di Palomo White Grape & Aloe Body Butter, Link :)




Deadsea Spa Magik Silky Smooth Body Lotion ~ £7.60 For 350ml From Amazon



I received this product in my November Boudoir Prive box. Please see that post here. It's a nice enough body lotion with a very subtle scent.



Sweet Snuggles Creme Caramel Body Cream



I again received this for Xmas. Please see that post here. I really love this scent. You can really notice the caramel aroma. Unfortunately I think this was just available from Superdrug for Xmas.



Hello Kitty Liberty Body Butter



I received this product for Xmas too. Please find that post here. This is a very pretty scent and I love the packaging. This product was a bit looser then some body butters can be. I'm not keen on digging my fingers into body butters/creams, but this was a nice body butter. Unfortunately this is no longer available from Boots Pharmacy as I think it was just a Xmas promo.



Gorgeous By Gok Rich Moisturising Body Butter



I received this for Xmas again. That post is in the link here. As I have mentioned I adore this range. The scent is just amazing. I prefer creams not in tubs, but this product is lovely. Great packaging and a great scent. This range appears to only come out at Xmas with Boots Pharmacy.



Di Palomo White Grape & Aloe Body Butter ~ £15.00 For 200ml



I was sent this product for free to review! Please see my First Impressions post here. If you don't scoop this product out and for instance just use it as a hand cream this would last you almost forever. The White Grape & Aloe range from Di Palomo is great for someone who does not like heavy scents. This cream is very thick like a wax almost so if you hate cream under your nails like me then this specific product is not for you and it would probably be better to go for something like the body lotion with a pump dispenser, Link :)



Body, Dental, Hand/Nail






Left To Right: Boots Smooth Sensitive Care Shave Gel, Link :), Oral-B Complete Extra White, Link :)Link :),  Di Palomo Orange Blossom With Wild Honey & Olive Enriching Hand & Nail Cream, Link :)



Boots Smooth Sensitive Care Shave Gel ~ £2.85 For 200ml From Boots Pharmacy & boots.com



I have used this product many times. It's a nice gel that works well for shaving. 



Oral-B Complete Extra White ~ Available From Boots, Boots Pharmacy, Superdrug & superdrug.com at £2.49 For 100ml



I received this for Xmas. Please find that post here. This was a nice toothpaste, but I didn't notice extra white teeth.



Di Palomo Orange Blossom With Wild Honey & Olive Enriching Hand & Nail Cream ~ £7.00 For 75ml



I received this product for free to review! Please find my first impressions in this post here. I really like how the Di Palomo creams sink into my skin. I really like this scent. It's classy, yet sexy.



Make-Up






Left To Right: Me Me Me Seventh Heaven Enriched Moisturising Facebase, Link :), Murad Skin Perfecting Primer (Dewy Finish), Link :), E.L.F. Tinted Moisturiser SPF 15 (Ivory), Link :), MUA Liquid Eyeliner (Black - Shade 5), Link :), Dior Diorshow Backstage Makeup Mascara (Black), Link :)



Me Me Me Seventh Heaven Enriched Moisturising Facebase ~ £2.00 For 10ml/£15.00 Full Size (Size Unknown) From mememecosmetics.co.uk. Also available at Superdrug



I received this product in my December GlossyBox. Please see that post here. I love the scent of this it's so refreshing. This was a nice primer to use.



Murad Skin Perfecting Primer (Dewy Finish) ~ £29.00 For 30ml From feelunique.com



I received this product in my January GlosyBox, Link :) I actually quite like this product. Although I prefer to wear foundation this does give you a subtle, sun kissed glow if you don't want to go out bare faced.



E.L.F. Tinted Moisturiser SPF 15 (Ivory) ~ £1.50 For 12g From eyeslipsface.co.uk



I know this is just a tinted moisturiser, but this gives barely any coverage so I really wouldn't recommend it as I don't think it's worth applying it. I have used it all up by mixing it with other make-up products to lighten them. It's not expensive though. For a swatch of this product and others please see this haul post, Link :)



MUA Liquid Eyeliner (Black - Shade 5) ~ £1.00 From muastore.co.uk, Superdrug & superdrug.com



This product has lasted me ages and is great value. I would recommend this, especially to those who are new to using liquid eyeliner as the price is fab. This is a very black shade that does not flake and gives a very precise line. The applicator tip is stiff. The only con is when I get this on my eyelashes it makes them go hard like I find all liquid eyeliners do so be careful when applying. This does stay put though.



Dior Diorshow Backstage Makeup Mascara (Black) ~ £22.00 For 11.5ml From Debenhams, debenhams.com. Boots Pharmacy, boots.com and other outlets.



I received this sample free when I purchased it's older sister Diorshow Blackout which I love because it's intensely dark and volumising. This however gives a much more subtle daytime look.





So the products I am most likely to use in again are:



 
 Simply Pure Make-up Remover Wipes

 Hello Kitty Wet Wipes 

 Superdrug 100% Cotton Wool Round Pads

 Johnson's Baby Oil

 Gorgeous By Gok Body Wash

 Superdrug Essential Anti-Perspirant Deodorant

 Sweet Snuggles Creme Caramel Body Cream

 Boots Smooth Sensitive Care Shave Gel

 Di Palomo Orange Blossom With Wild Honey & Olive Enriching Hand & Nail Cream

 Murad Skin Perfecting Primer (Dewy Finish)

 MUA Liquid Eyeliner (Black - Shade 5)






So that's all my darling's. I hope you have a lovely weekend. What have you been loving and loathing in February?




Love to you all
