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

Simple Skin Care

Hello everyone! Today I wanted to talk about skincare with you. As the winter draws closer, if you're anything like me, you'll start to notice your skin becoming dry and rough. Nobody wants to have to deal with bad skin and recently I've found a solution to the problem, in the form of 'Simple' The UK's number one facial beauty brand.
I was in my local Superdrug when I came across the extensive skin care range Simple have on offer. So as a result, I decided to pick up the 'Kind to skin soothing facial toner' and 'Kind to skin purifying cleansing lotion'.
My first impressions were that they are very reasonably priced at £3.29 each for 200 ml bottles. As well as this the bottles themselves look really nice and give simple (see what I did there) guidelines for use.
First I used the facial toner, I applied three drops onto a cotton wool pad and wiped in upward movements across my face. The toner is designed to keep your skin clear and refreshed. It was so gentle on my skin and had no nasty smell to it, which is always a bonus!
Next I moved onto the cleansing lotion, designed to cleanse drier skin keeping it smooth and softened, which is exactly what it did. I applied a small amount of the product onto a cotton wool ball and cleansed my face with it using upward and outward movements. Again I discovered it had no horrible smell or any other cons to it.
Now I feel ready to combat the dreadful weather without the fear of my dry skin getting in the way! I'm extremely impressed with these two products and will definitely try more of their range soon. Let me know in the comments if you've tried any of the Simple skin care range and what you thought about it.
Lots of love
