clean and clear dual action moisturiser

I am fed up of  having to deal with spots breakouts . I have tried many products in the  past  to help get rid and prevent spots   but none of which I felt work as good as I wanted .   I was looking for a face moisturiser because I felt that I had some dry patches that my foundation clung to . When I was browsing the selection at my local super market the clean and clear moisturiser  took my fancy . Not only this would combat my dry skin  with out adding oils as it a oil free formula   I hoped that it would clear my skin .

I use this every  night and I feel that in the morning my skin is soft and free of any dry patches . If I have a problem area I would concentrate on having the cream on that spot . It helps reduce spots and it is a great  spot treatment .

At £3.49 you cant miss this beauty essential is widely available both in Superdrug and boots .

Heel Genius - Soap & Glory

It now coming to that time of the year again when you start wearing sandals and flip-flops and after the winter your feet  is not in the best condition. If this is the case for you this will be your life saver. It amazing.  I will put a thin layer all over and then put more on the dry cracked places like the heel and my big toe and put socks on and ill do this as i go to my bed. ill do this for about a week or two until my feet are nice and soft. Then i will do it once  a week then just to keep on top of things.



In my opinion it a bargain for £5.50  as it does a fantastic job.  You can buy this from boots and also from there online site.http://www.soapandglory.com/b

Review: Pantene clarifying shampoo

This is my number one shampoo. I don’t buy it all the time because I do not want my hair to get use to it and also it hard to find in the supermarket/drugstores that I use every week.

I love this one because it leaves my hair feeling clean and soft. And I like using it if I have use dry shampoo ect in my hair. Some times I shampoo my hair twice to make sure all of the build up is gone .  Because this shampoo claims to get rid of a build up of the products that you use on your hair and does not leave any residue. In my opinion it does it job brilliant and this is why I have bought it several time and every time I buy it  I think why did I go for so long without it in my life.  If I feel that my hair need a deep clean I use this and then shampoo my hair again with a different shampoo.

The only down side is that I fell that it strip you hair of moisture but with the right conditioner it fine. I use tresemme moisture rich. This makes my hair feel lovely and light.

 You can get your for about £4.69 from boots but some times is on offer.

Soap & Glory - Thick& Fast Mascara – Review

This mascara  is  a volume mascara and you can get hold of it on the soap & glory site or in most boots.  In my opinion is an OK mascara it does give the volume that it say it will but it a very dry formula.  One thing that is bad about it is the large brush  that make the application a little bit messy. You get a lot on the top lid while trying to apply to your eyelashes.  I also feel as it's a dry formula it can look a little bit clumpy.  I will not be getting it again on a hurry and this because for the price there are better one on the market.

It only come in black and it r.r.p is £10

Rimmel Wake me up foundation review

I am now testing many different foundation as you will realise in the next few post  searching for the perfect foundation for me at the moment . I had tried the wake me up concealer  and  loved it . I went out and bought the foundation to match . I like the foundation as it has a high coverage and reflects light and makes my skin have a dewy finish to it .This last all day when set with a powder and I have oily combination skin But on the other hand the colour is a bit to dark for me and it is the lightest shade there is(ivory 100) .  overall a good foundation and would recommend . It can be found at most drugstores and supermarkets and retails at £8.99

Thank you

Yankee Candle Dupe

I love Yankee candle but because I live a long way from any Yankee shops I don’t really get much opportunities to buy them. One of my favourite is the vanilla cupcake.  It is very sweet smelling but I don’t like to burn it because I know it will be another month before I go to a town with a Yankee store.  But fear not I have found a good mach to the smell of the Yankee one. It from a brand star lytes and it called vanilla crème. I found this in the original factory shop for amazing value £5 for 18oz where the Yankee is 16.99 for a 14.5oz and 19.99 for a 22oz. as you can tell there is a huge gap in price. One down fall for the star lytes is that it dose burn twice as fast but  it still a steel for £5. I have not try any other fragrance from this brand  and this because in my local shop there is only a small selection and this is one of the down side that will effect me.

Is it too early to start the Christmas shop?

There is 4 month and 24 days till the big day but are you starting to think about it or is it too early. In my opinion is never too early and this because of all the expense there is.

One of the way I save for Christmas is I put money towards  love2shop vouchers that is a big help for my every Christmas. There is many high street shop that you can use them including Argos, Iceland, Debenhams and more.
 

Another way is that you choose a specific piece of money and save them  in a money box or a pot through out the year. This could be 5p, 10p 20p , 50p, £1 or £2  . And I will bet you that you will be  surprise  how much you will save.
 

Another way you can do it is start to buy present months in advance.  This will spread the cost and it will not be as financially hard.  I have already started to buy  for some of my friends that on my list. I would advice you not to buy cartoon thing for kids months in advance because they tend to change often.
