I’ve only ever had one facial before so when I was asked if I’d like to review the new Dual Exfoliation Power Peel Treatment from Aveda at Shine I jumped at the chance, the salon is in the heart of the North Laines tucked away in a really great location a 5 minute walk from the train station. The general idea of this newly devised facial is that it is similar to having a light…
The latest addition to my bathroom is the Seascape Refresh hand soap and hand lotion set, which they very kindly sent me as an early Christmas Present! You would be surprised at how many times a day you wash your hands when there is a baby around… so the hand lotion especially is a brilliant addition now to avoid dry hands. Each bottle is a whopping 300ml so should last a pretty long time too!…
This week we’ve been flat/cat sitting for a friend in Hove, and as luck would have it I got the chance to discover a lovely little businesses here. The Beauty Shed is tucked away at the end of Conway Street about a 5 minute walk from Hove Station. Above the very clean and urban looking Gym called The Fitness Shed are two treatment rooms, both beautifully decked out with relaxing decor with gorgeous smelling candles…
I bought this last week with my Superdrug points, as I don’t actually need any more palettes (I have all the Sleek Palettes apart from the neon one, and i’m sure it’s only 80’s themed hen parties that buy that one…) but I figured spending points isn’t real money! Guess which one was taken with my phones beauty function…where’d my freckles go!? It’s full of lovely autumnal shades, although annoyingly no matt black, which…
As part of my ‘anti slummy mummy’ project I decided to treat my feet. Seeing as I now hardly drive anywhere (and walk what must be miles each week with the baby) my poor feet needed some TLC, especially since they’re about to be ensconced in tights and boots for the winter! Anyway I decided to have a pedicure, my first ever! Despite going to nail salons every 3 weeks for years when I…
I keep expecting my hair to fall out, which may seem like a bit of an odd statement, but post-baby many women lose the hair that didn’t fall out during pregnancy. Plus I had my hair highlighted a couple of weeks before I had Athena, and since I’ve had her I’ve not really look after it very well, nor have I gone back to the salon for the trim that I promised my hair…
MaxFactor False lase effect – £10.99 for 13ml or £8.39 per 10ml. A chunky rubbery rounded brush. Lancôme Hypnose Drama – £22 for 6.5ml, or £33.85 per 10ml. A curved brush with fine bristles. I am a dedicated hypnose drama user. It might be pricey but bloody hell does it produce thick black lashes! I once bought regular hypnose when drama was out of stock and regretted it a bit, I had to…
Vs I bought the No7 Melting Gel Cleanser(£9.00) or £4 with a voucher) with a £5 off boots voucher, as I was running out of my Superdrug Naturally Radiant hot cloth cleanser (£5.99 but half price at the moment) so thought I’d compare the two, although they are slightly different products they claim to do more or less the same thing. I prefer the smell of the No7 cleanser (more perfumed and artificial, but I…
