Empties


























Oral-B Sensitive Alcohol Free Mouth Wash 300ml - £1.00
I first bought this mouth wash after I got my jestrum and labret piercings because the mouth wash I was currently using (Listerene) was to harsh for them. This mouth wash is really nice and pleasant to use because it is alcohol free, so you don't get that burning sensation. I bought this from Home Bargains for £1.00 but I haven't seen this mouth wash in any other shops. I really like this and I have repurchased and I probably will again. 5/5

Avon Naturals Kids Mango Crazy Hair Tamer 200ml - £2.50
I've been using this hair tamer for years because it does exactly what it says on the bottle. It combes any knots and tangles out my hair and makes my hair smell fantastic. I buy this product from Avon. This product comes in different fragrances. 5/5

Rimmel Exaggerate Liquid Eye Liner 10ml - £5.29
As some of you may know I would be lost without liquid eye liner as its part of my everyday make up routeen. This is really good quality jet black liquid eye liner and I have repurchased over and over because its great. 5/5

Elemis Fresh Skin Exfoliating Wash 30ml sample Full size £12.00
Review HERE. 5/5

Planet Spa Bath Oil From Avon - 50ml £??.??
A really nice bath oil that helps to moisturise the body but doesn't leave you feeling greasy or oily. I won't be buying this again because it leaks out of the bottle and makes everything oily. 2/5

Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation in shell 30ml - £27.50
I've had this foundation for quite a long time because I didn't wear it that often. It has fantastic coverage and gives  flawless almost perfect skin. The shade shell is the lightest shade and its very close to being a perfect match to my skin. Unfortunately it feels way to heavy on my skin and breaks me out like crazy, being the reason I didn't wear it much. 3/5

Soap & Glory Super Eyes Wide Awake Lifting Eye Gel 15ml - £9.00
I'm a big fan of Soap & Glory, and I like all of the products I've tried apart from this one. Although it does give a soothing cooling sensation that's all I have found it to do for me. Big shame. 1/5

Rituals Magic Touch Whipped Body Cream 70ml - £5.00
I absolutely adore this body cream, the first thing that attracted me was the scent, I'm not sure how to describe the scent but its kind of floral, a scent I normally don't like. It's really nice to use and melts into the skin really quickly, leaving your skin feeling incredibly soft and smooth. I will be repurchasing. 5/5

Soap & Glory Breakfast Scrub Body Exfoliator 300ml - £9.50
Another Soap and Glory product I love. Its has a thick consistency and it is full of oatmeal grains that work to remove any dead skin cells. The scrub smells of honey and porridge, not to everyone's taste  but I think it smells divine. Almost good enough to eat. I will be repurchasing. 5/5

Morrisons sensitive baby wipes 80* - 4 packs for £3.00
I've been using these wipes for quite some time because they are cheap, last, and remove make-up superbly. They are sensitive, so they can be used on the eye area to remove make-up. I have bought these over and over. They are fab. 5/5

Soap & Glory Night cream In shining Armour 50ml - £13.00
This is my favorite Soap & Glory product so far. Find my review HERE. 5/5

NO CLOGS ALLOWED INTENSIVE-ACTION PORE-REFINING FACIAL PEEL

No Clogs Allowed Intensive - Action Pore - Refining Facial Peel........what a mouthful! 


There is nothing I like doing better on a Sunday night than taking a couple of hours out for me time, what I call pamper night. One of the things I really enjoy is slapping a lovely mask treatment on my face, and you guessed it No Clogs Allowed is one of my current favorites. I've tried quite a few of S&G products, and I honestly think they are worth the hype. 

No clogs allowed is a very thick creamy coloured cream, and the consistency reminds me of a mud mask. This mask treatment can be used once or twice a week, I tend to only use this once a week. As soon as the cream comes into contact with the skin there is an instant warming sensation, which I find to be really soothing. The texture is a little grainy because the cream contains pumice. While your rubbing the cream into the skin, the pumice feels a little rough but its actually exfoliating the skin a little, which is fantastic at removing dead skin cells, plus the mask starts to heat up quite a bit more. Don't be put off by the pumice as the grainy texture soon melts away once you have rubbed it into the skin and the heat is really soothing and not uncomfortable in the slightest. The cream has a fruity / minty smell which isn't over bearing at all. You can use this cream in two different ways, rinse away for a fast refresh, or wait 3-5 minutes for a deep cleanse. 





You get a little cute pink sponge included, which is perfect to remove the mask. The sponge is 100% cellulose (man made) made from wood fibers, the sponge is also Eco Friendly as its biodegradable.  




This treatment mask is suitable for all skin types, but its best for greasy blackhead prone skin. Once the mask has been removed my skin feels soft, smooth and very refreshed. Another important ingredient in this cream is Salicylic Acid which helps to heal current spots and blemishes but most importantly helps reduce blackheads and pimples. 




On the back of the tube it insists you to shake the tube well before use, but no matter how much you shake the tube you will still end up with oil dribbling out of the tube. This is the only thing I dislike about the product and the fact the oil leaks out of the tube. I normally throw away products if they leak oil because I can't stand the texture or the mess it makes, but I decided to keep the tube in a cup because I love the product so much. 

All in all I think this is a great product that I enjoy using with fantastic results to go with it. Since using this treatment mask once a week, every week my blackheads have clearly reduced and I don't get nowhere near as many as I did. It really does make your skin a lot more manageable as well as soft and smooth. 

I bought my tube from my local Boots store and payed £11.00 for 100ml, some of you may think its a bit on the pricey side, but Boots normally have Soap & Glory on offer at 3 for 2. The product lasts me a long time, as I only use it once a week so all in all I think its a good buy. 

I would definalty buy this product again and I highly recommend this to people with oily blackhead prone skin.

Night Cream In Shining Armour by Soap and Glory



























This lovely jar of night cream by Soap and Glory is my skin saviour at the moment, and will definitely stay in my night time skin care routine for some time. I always like to end my night time skin care routine with a night cream to treat my skin and make it lovely and soft and supple for the next morning, which makes my make-up even better. The dreamy and eye catching jar, which looks great on my dressing table contains 50mls of product at a price of £13.00. The jar has lasted me four months and I’m sadly using the last little bit of product I have left. But overall I think it’s a good price to pay for the amount of time it has lasted me, not to mention my results. 



The cream is a very rich and thick texture that smooth’s over my skin with ease, without feeling greasy or sticky and slowly hydrates my skin over the night. I was truly amazed the first time I used the cream because I had never had these results of super soft, healthy and hydrated skin by using a night cream before.   

I honestly can’t praise this night cream enough! If you have dry skin this is great for use every night because it will give you super soft skin in no time. I sometimes use this night cream as a mask in the harsh winter months when I’m indoors on a Sunday, to give my skin the help it deserves to get it back feeling supple and healthy.

I will be buying another jar very soon :D
