Long time no speak! I'm all moved in, so things should return to normal now. I took these photos a couple of weeks ago when the weather was still lovely in the UK. It's sunny today but it's turned really bitter outside (definitely coat weather) already and I'm stuck in the house with a pretty bad cold...It really is starting to feel like winter. It's a good job the products that I've used up are everyday essentials that can be used all year round.
So I've done it again...I've actually managed to use up a few products instead of forgetting about them, hiding them away in a cupboard when they are still half full.
I usually have a few different body moisturisers on the go but recently I've been trying to use up a whole tub before moving onto the next one. I got this nspa Shea Butter Body Butter from Asda a while ago and remember it being extremely cheap. I also remember being extremely surprised when I first used it because the quality is so good for the price. It has a nice, thick consistency and is not greasy at all. The smell is lovely and kind of reminds me of the smell of a packet of mini eggs (strange thing to compare it to I know).
I originally never intended to purchase this product. I looking for the Effaclar Duo but it was sold out in all of my local Boots. They had an offer on at the time where you could get two La Roche- Posay products for £15 and I wanted to try the Effaclar Mat (which I recently repurchased because it's so brilliant) facial moisturiser so took advantage of the deal by picking up this little beauty as well.
It's supposed to target imperfections and stop breakouts from developing. I used this every time I had a blemish until it disappeared and did notice a difference. I still suffer from scarring occasionally but this product is perfect for me and would be for you if you seem to get one or two spots at a time.
I've been a big fan of the Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Frizz Remedy since I was a teenager. It leaves your hair smelling so clean and is one of those scents that reappears every time you move your hair throughout the day. I love having a product like this at hand to give my hair that extra bit of care a couple of times a week and will definitely be repurchasing it.
The Tigi Bed Head Control Freak is a serum that I've had for a while and had completely forgotten about. I'm so glad that I did find it hiding in my room because I've been using it recently and think I'll have to repurchase it. The serum itself smells a bit plasticy and almost like grapes (in a good way) and has little tiny bits of glitter in it which actually disappear when you work it into your hair. I apply this to the ends of my hair when it's wet and it helps keep my hair feeling smoother and flatter (no idea why but I'm obsessed with keeping buy hair flat).
This stuff is amazing. Smells like pear (childhood), costs about £1.99 and really helps get those knots out of your hair. That's pretty much it, this product is just a great all round.
Bigs came to join me...he's so nosy!
It's not often that I find products that I would repurchase so I feel like today's post has been pretty sucessful. Let me know which ones you have tried and whether you agree with me!
