Garnier Scrub and Gel Cream

Hello everyone! My second post of the day is about one of my all time favourite brands, Garnier. I've never tried a product of theirs that I haven't liked and I was impressed again when I purchased their Skin natural fresh essential vitamin enriched facial scrub and Body Hydra Express Milk. 

The scrub Purifies & revitalises and is Enriched with citrus and moringa extracts. It works especially well with Dull and tired skin to give you a boost in the morning! 'Wake Me Up Fresh Radiance Boosting Scrub eliminates impurities and pollution, leaving your skin feeling perfectly clean and fresh. Its gentle ex-foliating beads unclog pores leaving skin looking brighter and smoother. Enriched with Citrus extract, Wake Me Up Fresh Radiance Boosting Scrub is perfect to purify and revitalise your skin' I'm in love with it's citrus smell and how it washes off leaving my skin feeling super nourished.

The Garnier Body Hydra Express Milk enriched with Grape absorbs instantly into your skin and does exactly what it says! Once applied your skin feels really hydrated and refreshed. The only thing I would say is not to apply it to your face as it does sting a little on your face. It is Enriched with L-Bifidus which helps the skin to reinforce its natural protective barrier, It's effects are really long lasting too which is a bonus!

I would highly recommend both these products to anyone and even my brother sometimes steals the hydrating gel from me! In a drug store you could pick these products up for around £3.50-£5 which is really good value for how long lasting they are.

Let me know in the comments if you have tried any of Garnier's products and what you thought of them. Don't forget to check back every week for new posts from me!

Lots of love

Olay Day & Night Creams

Hello Everyone! I haven't been able to post for a couple of days due to the Christmas rush at work but I'm back today with another skin care post. 

Olay is a worldwide renowned beauty company that expertise in skin care. I decided to pick up their new day and night moisturisers as my skin was looking a bit dull and I wasn't disappointed!

First of all I tried the ' Olay essentials complete care day cream'. It 'is specially designed to give normal and dry skin everything it needs most to help maintain and improve the healthy look of your skin. It contains the essential ingredients your skin needs such as pampering vitamins and nourishing nutrients.' It is also enriched with SP15 to protect your skin from the suns harmful rays. The product packaging is very simple but looks nice and the cream itself is very smooth when applying and doesn't irritate my skin at all. It leaves me feeling refreshed and glowing!

The counter part to the day cream is  the Olay Complete Care Night Enriched Cream for normal/dry/oily skin. 'It works overnight to enhance skin's natural moisture barrier helping to minimise moisture loss the next day & improve the healthy look of your skin.'

Some of the benefits of the night cream:

- Helps to replace moisture lost during the day.

- Non-greasy formula locks moisture into the skin overnight.

- It re-texturises to promote and maintain healthy looking skin.

Just like the day cream the application is smooth and the product is light on your skin. It helps my skin to feel rejuvenated when I wake up in the morning and I love it!

Both these products are inexpensive at around £8-£10 depending on where you purchase them and they compliment each other beautifully.

Let me know in the comments if you have tried either of these creams or any other Olay products and what did you think of them?

Lots of love

Affordable Lipsticks

Hello everyone! So every girl loves lipstick, right? But if you're on a budget it can be hard to find some that are reasonably cheap but still good quality. This is why I'm so happy I discovered Avon lipsticks!

For anyone that doesn't know Avon is an American international manufacturer and direct selling company in beauty, household, and personal care categories. (yes, I got that from Wikipedia because I didn't know how to explain it) 

I was flicking through my Avon magazine when I came across the lipstick section and found that they had an amazing range of colours and at only £7.50 each, they are a bargain!

The Avon true colour lipsticks have 3 finishes and I decided to try some of each. I purchased two soft matte colours in Lava Love and Toasted Rose (which is my personal favourite of them all!), three satin finishes in the colours Scarlet Siren, Knock out Pink and Ripe Papaya and finally one shimmer lipstick in the colour Apricot Glamour.

When they arrived I was pleased to see that the product packaging was sturdy but chic and they looked expensive. The shimmer lipstick had different packaging but was still, none the less, beautiful.

The colour pay off of the lipsticks are great and the they last for hours on end, although I would say the soft matte ones would need to be touched up more often.

Overall I was extremely happy with the lipsticks I purchased and would love to try some more Avon products!

Let me know in the comments if you have tried any Avon lipsticks or if you know of any other affordable lipsticks to try.

Also I would really appreciate it if you would let your friends and fellow make-up lovers know about my blog and leave a link to your own blogs in the comments and I'll be sure to check them out!

Lots of love
