[GIFTED] REVIEW: THIS WORKS MORNING EXPERT RANGE


Here's my thoughts on the This Works Morning Expert range. I have a few items from the range and couldn't believe I hadn't reviewed them already. I've been using these for a little while now. I think this is a great range and have been loving the products. I wanted to share my thoughts and how i've been getting on with them.

My favourite product from the collection is the Hyaluronic serum, it's so light and sinks into the skin really fast to hydrate and brighten skin. You can use daily on the skin to maximise the pumping effect. I really like this product is smells lovely and isn't greasy it just goes on without any effort. It's gentle and I really notice that my skin appears firmer when I use this.

Next is the Morning Expert Open Eyes, eye cream. I love the applicator for this product, it makes it super easy to apply and the metal applicator leaves the eye area feeling cool. This leaves the eye area appearing more awake and reduces the appearance of dark circles.

Finally the Morning Expert Multi Acid Pads, I really like these and they are super easy to use. Again can be used daily to exfoliate and enhance skin resurfacing, unclog pores and minimize morning shine. They are really nice and gentle and I think they are an easy way to add acids into regime.

Make sure you check out the bundles on the This Works website for some super amazing savings!





[GIFTED] BEAUTY: THIS WORKS LOVE SLEEP RANGE


THIS WORKS LOVE SLEEP RANGE 

If you've followed me for a while you will know i'm a huge fan of This Works and they're products. I especially love their deep sleep pillow spray! Today i'm sharing their new Love Sleep range! I haven't tried it all yet but thought i'd share the collection with you as it's the perfect range for Valentines Day  next week. 

First up is the Love Sleep Pillow Spray, as I mentioned above i'm a huge fan of their Deep Sleep Pillow spray so I was super excited when I spotted a new version. First up the packaging is new, the bottle is much nicer and feels more expensive. The new range has a new scent of Ylang Ylang and Patchouli to get you in the mood and encapsulated deep sleep fragrance to support a restful nights sleep.

Next is the Love Sleep Breathe In, very similar to the Pillow Spray but you roll on to your pulse points and breath in deeply. A sensual blend of Ylang Ylang, Patchouli and Frankincense leaves skin feeling nourished and encourages relaxation. 

The Love Sleep Bedroom Blend is an essential oil, just add a few drops to a diffuser or tissue, proven to relax and calm to make way for sleep and intimacy.

Finally is the Seduction Candle.  I have to say i'm a fan of candles in the bedroom. It calms me, I hate having harsh lighting on in the bedroom, I prefer candle light to get me in the mood. The Seduction Candle is perfect for this as it promotes a sense of wellbeing and the aromatheraputic blend will help switch you off and turn you on! The candle is lovely and smells gorgeous! I'm super excited to burn this and put it to the test! 

The Love Sleep range sounds amazing! I'm super excited to give it a try. I'm quite an anxious person and struggle to switch off so this range sounds right up my street. I'm already a big fan of the deep sleep pillow spray and honestly I couldn't live without it. I use it all the time when I'm struggling to switch off. I can honestly say I spend far too much time on my phone in bed and I know that this is a huge factor into my poor sleep. I really struggle to switch off and end up scrolling. I'm going to test out the pillow spray and the candle first and see how they effect my mood in the bedroom, with Valentines day next week it couldn't have come at a better time.

To shop the Love Sleep range head over to the This Works website now...

LIFESTYLE: GETTING A GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP



I've struggled with getting to sleep for a little while now and have a little routine and a few tips that help send me off to sleep. I thought i'd share these with you as I know it's very common to have trouble sleeping and getting to sleep.

1. Get yourself into a routine - your body produces Melatonin which is what makes you go to sleep. If you don't give your body time to wind down then you won't produce enough. Try not to go on your phone whilst in bed, the blue light also effects your levels of Melatonin. About an hour before you go to bed you should finish whatever you need to do on your phone. Have a wash and get into comfortable clothes so whatever you wear to bed and unwind so read a book or do some colouring, just relax. 

2. Have a bath, having a bath is another great way to unwind before bed. Get yourself some lovely bath bombs from Lush they have some really amazing scents that smell so good!

3. Below are some skincare bits that I use each night before bed and I feel this helps with my sleep. I love the This Works Deep Sleep Pillow spray, it has amazing reviews and smells lovely. You spray onto your pillow to help you sleep. I like the Vichy Skin Sleep* moisturiser as its a lovely night cream, it's not too thick and soaks into the skin really fast. I use this alongside my Kiehls Midnight Recovery Concentrate* which makes your skin look and feel so good. This smells so nice aswell and always relaxes me.

4.  Is your bed comfortable? If not this is something you should sort out right away. If your not comfortable you can spend hours trying to get to sleep. Adjustamatic have a selection of a Adjustable beds that could be exactly what you need. Check out this video on how an uncomfortable bed can effect our sleeping pattern. 

5. If i'm really struggling to switch off I light my Neom Tranquility Candle about an hour before I go to bed. This smells so good and always helps me to sleep. You can get these little travel sizes for about £15.  

6. Sometimes worry can stop us from getting to sleep. If you find it hard to switch off your thoughts and you worry about things you should get yourself a nice new notepad and pen and have this by your bed. When you start to worry about something just write it down, leave it and worry about it tomorrow, give yourself time to go through your worries and do something about them.

I hope these tips help you get a better night sleep, i've been struggling again the last few nights but i've been using my phone in bed again and not giving myself time to unwind. I am going to make sure I give myself some time to relax and I don't think my pillows are that comfortable so I'm going to find some better ones, i've been reading up on these pillow reviews from The Dozy Owl I think one of these would definitely help me sleep better.
