I'm In Love!!

Hi again!

I am in love with my latest purchase! I went to Boots yesterday looking for a cream for the dry skin on my heels (not very sexy I know and I'm sorry!). I'd read a lot about Soap and Glory and I've been dying to try some of their products so I thought I would give their Heel Genius ago. I'd heard good things about it and Boots had an offer on so I got a third off. Result!


I tried this for the first time last night. It says to "massage a generous layer of heel genius onto clean feet every night" and then cover it with cotton socks and let it soak in over night.

So this is what I did.

The cream has a really nice fruity smell to it and is a light blue colour. I applied a little of the cream onto my hand after getting home from the shops to see what it was like and I could smell it for the rest of the night. Gorgeous!

 I woke up this morning and wasn't really expecting much but I was really surprised with the results! My skin felt really soft and wasn't looking as cracked which I think is pretty good considering Ive only used the product once! This is definitely going to become a regular part of my night time routine!

Hopefully it'll make my feet all lovely and pretty so I can wear lots of nice sandals this summer!

Shampoo and Conditioner Heaven!

Hi everyone!

I recently wrote a post about a prize I had won of £100 worth of Andrew Collinge products. Well today they arrived!

The parcel was delivered while my mum and I were in town so my lovely neighbour took it in for me. My mum went over to get it so when she came back we hurried into the living room to open in. We were like kids a Christmas!

Inside the box everything was wrapped up in tissue paper so I soon set about ripping it off to get my hands on the goodies!

So what did I get........


I'd never owned so much shampoo and conditioner!
Altogether there were 8 shampoos, 8 conditioners and a pair of super slim straighteners.

I got:

                                    
2 bottles of Smooth and Shine shampoo
2 bottles of Smooth and Shine conditioner
1 bottle of Illuminating Blonde shampoo
1 bottle of Illuminating Blonde conditioner
1 bottle of Moisturise and Protect shampoo
1 bottle of Moisturise and Protect shampoo

From the new Purity range I got:

                                     
2 bottles of HydraTherapy shampoo
2 bottles of HydraTherapy conditioner
2bottles of SmoothTherapy shampoo
2 bottles of SmoothTherapy conditioner
(only one of the conditioners is pictured cause sadly one had burst in the box )

The last thing out the box were my lovely new pair of Andrew Collinge Super Slim straighteners! They are so cute and I cant wait to try them out.



A massive, massive thank you to TeamGleam for the amazing prize! Don't think I'll be needing to buy and shampoo or conditioner anytime soon! I'm going to try these all out and do some reviews for you!

Have you checked out Latestinbeauty.com?

Hi guys!

I've been meaning to do this post for ages and this is me finally getting round to doing it!!

About a month ago I read about a website called Latestinbeauty.com where you can try out sample sized products for a £1 text. I love a good bargain so I thought I would check it out and sign up! It was really quick and easy to sign up and once you've done this you can pick what products you want to try out!

There are 3 categories which are skincare, make up and fragrance and hair and body. You are able to chose 1 product from each category and they are added to goodie bag. Once your goodie bag is full you can go to the checkout and fill in your delivery details. It's at this point that you need to send a text message that costs £1 to get a code to enter. The cost of the message covers the post and packaging so I don't think it's too bad.

So this I what I got......



I got a 1.2ml sample of Christina Aguilera perfume, Mary Kay's Timewise Mircale Set (2 sachets of cleanser and 2 of moisturiser) and a 21g tube of Mary Kay's Timewise Hand and Decollete Hand Cream (this is the perfect size for slipping in your bag!).

You can also get products from Elemis, DKNY, Vichy and Olay Regenerist. You can get sample once a month and they come in this lovely little pink box!

I've only got another 8 days to wait till I can try out some new products!

My New Favourite Perfume!

Ladies if you've not yet got this weeks copy of Grazia magazine (10th - 17th so be quick) then head to the shops and pick one up immediately! There's a voucher in it to receive a free bottle of Banana Republic's Alabaster fragrance worth £8.99. I picked mine up yesterday while shopping in town with a friend and instantly fell in love with it!

You get a really cute little 7.5ml bottle of the eau de parfum which is described as "A delicate blend of wild musk and natural florals". Mmm mmm mmm! It's a really light summery fragrance and when I let my Mum smell it she described it as "very me" (as in very me not her)


The bottles a nice design but I don't like the stopper in it. It just pulls off and knowing me, I'm bound to spill it everywhere at some point. I'm definitely going to be picking up a full size bottle of this once my mini one runs out and I can see it becoming a firm favourite!

What's your favourite summer fragrance??
