BEAUTY: CLOUD CLOTH REVIEW



Cloud Cloth - £8 for pack of 3 *

I have been using the Cloud Cloths for a couple of weeks now and wanted to give them a mention on my blog.

I have always used the Liz Earle Muslin Cloths as I use the Hot Cloth Cleanser most of the time and i've never really had any issues with them or any need to try something new.

When I heard about Cloud Cloth they sounded dreamy but I wasn't sure that I would be that impressed with them, I mean they are just a face cloth right?

WRONG! they are amazing. One side is like a muslin cloth, it exfoliates and scrubs away dead cells, the other side is super soft and gentle. It's perfect for sensitive skin, and sensitive areas like around the eyes.

I've been using the DHC cleansing oil to melt away my make up and following up with the Kiehls Centella Skin-Calming facial cleanser. I use the soft side first to remove my eye make-up and then use the other side to remove my cleanser and this scrubs away any dead cells and exfoliates the skin.
It leaves the skin feeling beautifully clean and soft.

I'm using the Kiehls Midnight Recovery concentrate and Vichy night moisturiser  for my nighttime routine right now. My skins feeling really good right now, very hydrated and smooth.

I'm really happy with the Cloud Cloths, you can chuck them in the wash so they last really well. You get a pack of 3 for £8 which I think is very reasonable and I will be buying more once mine give up. 










BEAUTY: LUSH MOTHERS DAY 2018



I know Mothers Day has been and gone but I thought i'd share a few of the Mothers Day products that I was kindly sent over, they unfortunately didn't arrive until after Mothers Day but a few of the items are still available on the Lush website but they will be gone very soon.

The first product is Mum in a Spin, OMG i'm super excited to try this. It has a lavender and Ylang Ylang scent so is perfect to help you drift off. It makes the water pink. I love the reusable bubble bars and think this is very similar.

The Antiope Naked Shower Gel is a orange scented product, which refreshed and rejuvenates the skin.

The Honey Bear massage bar has alot of really good reviews over on the lush website. It has a gorgeous caramel/vanilla scent. With cocoa butter and shea butter to leave the skin feeling super soft.

The Purple Loosestrife soap looks beautiful and would make a wonderful gift. It has a floral scent, a trio of Rose, Hibiscus and Lavender to create a lovely parma-violet scent. It's such a pretty soap that I almost don't want to use it.

The Madame President is a bath bomb, it has a grapefruit scent and antiseptic properties. It turns the water a gorgeous purple colour and the stars seperate and fizz too!

Citrus are doing it for themselves!  is a new marbled bubbleroon. It has a citrus scent of grapefruit and lemon oil.

As I metioned above the Mothers Day products won't be around for much longer, so if anything takes your fancy then check them out now! They also have some of the Mothers Day gift sets too so check them out.

BEAUTY: LUSH EASTER 2018


With Easter coming up next week I thought i'd share a few products from the Easter collection at LUSH, I haven't used any of these products yet as I've only just had chance to photograph them but i'm super excited to try them out and thought i'd share a few bits from the collection.


First up is the Which Came First? bath bomb. It's a really big bath bomb and a gorgeous pink and yellow colour. It has a citrus scent from the lemon and grapefruit. This smells gorgeous and i'm a big fan of citrussy scents so i'm sure i'll love this one.

Next is the Here comes the sun Naked Shower Cream. I'm a big fan of the Naked shower gels, I got my first one for Christmas and I love it. They lather up really well and are just lovely and creamy. This sounds amazing, I'm a big fan of bergamont and orange scents so this sounds right up my street. Avocado oil moisturises and tangerine and sicillian oils lift the mood.

The cream egg Bubbleroon is another new product for Easter. It has a mint chocolate scent!!! I imagine the mint scent will be so refreshing.

The Golden Egg Bath Bomb Melt is SUPER GLITTERY so don't buy it if you're not a fan of glitter. It has an orange and honey scent and cocoa butter and almond oils moisturise and soften the skin.

The Bunch of Carrots is one of my favourites from the Easter collection. I'm a big fan of the reusable bubble bars,I just keep them on the side of my bath and use them time after time, i'm still using a snow fairy wand from Christmas. They last ages and just a little goes a long way, you get loads of bubbles. The carrots have a citrussy scent perfect for spring.

The Carrot soap looks lovely. it has an orange scent and the fresh carrot and carrot powder refresh and brighten the skin.

I love the whole Lush Easter range, it's the perfect gift for somebody who doesn't eat Chocolate or why not treat yourself to some new refreshing and fruity products perfect for spring. I have some of the Mothers Day range to feature, It didn't arrive in time for Mothers Day but is still avaliable over on the Lush website so this will be live over the next few days.

REVIEW: UMBERTO GIANNINI INDULGE RANGE



I've been using the Umberto Giannini Indulge range* since before Christmas and I thought i'd share my thoughts with you guys. I haven't done a beauty product review for so long but i've just got to share this range with you.

First up how lovely is the packaging, yes its white with Rose Gold lettering!! So the packaging is gorgeous! The only thing I don't like about it is I prefer a squeezy bottle as I don't think you can get all the product out of these bottles.

The shampoo is so good! My hair feels sooo soft and clean once i've washed it using this. I don't even have to repeat, the first wash is amazing and leaves my hair feeling lovely. I could actually skip conditioner but I don't as I really like the Indulge conditioner too. I think this has lasted really well as I've been using it a few times a week for about 5/6 weeks so its a good value for money.
Boots always have offers on aswell so you can usually save some money on the product too.

The conditioner is lovely, not too thick and it leaves the hair feeling so soft. The scent is lovely and my hair always feels so clean and soft after using the range. The nourishing hair mask is lovely too for that extra bit of hydration and nourishing.

I'm really loving this range and I will be repurchasing it as I am loving it! I really wanted to feature the range in a review and share with you guys as I really have loved using it.

The Umberto Giannini Range is on 2 for £10 at Boots right now so make sure you check it out soon.

REVIEW: RITUALS HIMALAYA WISDOM SCRUB SALT


 RITUALS HIMALAYA WISDOM SCRUB SALT- £16*- RITUALS 


Rituals is one of my favourite brands, i'm always very happy with their product. I am yet to try a product I don't like. The brand has produced some very high quality products. I have tried many products from moisturisers, body scrubs and shower gels and all have been great.


I've been using this salt scrub in the shower quite alot recently. It smells amazing! Very fresh and clean. I have used a few different salt scrubs before but this has been my favourite. I find it dissolves very easily and feels like its actually cleaning my skin.

The salt scrub leaves my skin feeling clean and fresh and its very easy to use. I have been using this for a few weeks now and my pot is still very full, you don't need to use loads of this product.

I find using my hands easy to apply the product and then I use a scrunchie to lather.

I'm gutted as my local Rituals store has closed down however Rituals is now stocked across most department stores.

REVIEW: NEAL AND WOLF HARMONY


NEAL AND WOLF HARMONY - NEAL AND WOLF - £13.50*


I'm a massive fan of  Neal and Wolf, I've tried a few of their products and I haven't been disappointed yet! This is their intensive care treatment, its a intensive conditioner for your hair. You use it after you have shampoo'd your hair and you would use it weekly like you would any intensive treatment. I have found it really easy to apply, it's a nice creamy formula. I like to comb through my hair before I go in the bath/shower and then shampoo and follow with the treatment. I then run my fingers carefully through my hair to ensure the treatment is even to the ends, I don't really apply it to my roots as I find conditioners make my roots greasy. It has that amazing Neal and Wolf scent that I love so so much and it lingers so your hair smells fab! I love how Neal and Wolf products are both luxurious and kind to your hair with no sulfates or parabens you know its the best care for your hair. I like the squeezy bottle and find it easy to use. Its £13.50 which I think its realistic for a product like this, it leaves your hair soft and silky but manageable.
You only need to use this treatment like once a week so the 200ml bottle should last quite a long time it also comes it a very generous 950ml bottle aswell, which is more of a salon size bottle however for only £27.50 its a good buy.

I use the heat protection spray after whilst I blowdry and straighten my hair, I have reviewed this here Neal and Wolf Heat Protection Spray

REVIEW: Clarins Pure Melt Cleansing Gel






So after seeing LLYMLRS rave about this time and time again I decided I had to try it. It's a gel cleanser, I think the packaging is very simplistic but will last well.  I like that its a squeeze bottle - this means you will be able to scrape every last bit out.

The formula is really nice and thick, you rub it together in your hands and massage onto the face. It feels abit sticky when you first apply it but it applies easily enough. You then apply some water to your face and continue to rub the gel in and it turns into a milky formula.

Then rinse the face with warm water. This leaves your skin feeling really clean, soft and fresh. I feel that this product makes my skin feel plump and ready to apply my face oil at night or my daily moisturiser. It removes make up very easily and is gentle on the skin. I like to take my make-up off with a cleansing water or milk and then follow with this or my REN cleansing gel. This gets all the stuborn make up off really easily.

My skins been really bad recently because of stress from uni but I really like how my skin feels, it feels clean and soft after i've washed with the cleansing gel.

I've been saving up my boots points and I will be repurchasing this.

You can buy this online from www.clarins.co.uk or www.boots.com
