Rapunzel Hair using Grow Long range | Umberto Giannini review

Long hair, DO care!

Disney Marie Aristocats ‘Bow and Whiskers’ range | Mad Beauty

It’s that time of year again when gift guides for Christmas are appearing and special little treats are popping into the shops. For me this is the just the most wonderful time of year and I love to see what new products and gift sets we all have to look forward to! 

This year Disney/Mad Beauty have perfected a range I could have only dreamed for, a Aristocats Marie range! Honestly, this little perfect sassy kitten is my spirit animal. The range is called ‘Bows and Whiskers’ and features scents of peony and cherry blossom. 

Which just so happen to be two of favourite spring flowers! 

Botanics Skincare ‘All Bright’ Range | The Plant One

I’ve never been one for using great amounts of skin care products, I have relatively normal skin and don’t find that I don’t need to use a lot of products. 

When I was in my local Boots recently this I saw that the All Bright range in the Botanics section had a few offers on and I was drawn by the fact it enhances radiance and brighteness using extracts from the hibiscus plant and was intrigued. I did some research and read reviews and the Radiance Balm was the product that most enlightened me as I love my skin to look dewy and natural when I wear make up and the balm can be used as a primer which is perfect for me! 

It left my skin with a lovely glow and soft glow which really makes my skin look fresh and revived in the mornings and keeps my foundation/B.B. cream looking more natural rather than matte. 

After loving the Radiance Balm I decided to try the Foam Wash in the same range as I love to use a facial wash twice a day and my current was running out. After just one use my skin felt firm and incredibly smooth! It lathers into a light foam and is easy to wash off. The scent is a lovely floral which isn’t too potent whilst cleansing. This has replaced my Body Shop vitamin E wash as I noticed more of a cleanse and brightening results with this wash. 

The final product I got was the All Bright Day Cream. Which also includes Hibiscus for brightening and hydrating properties, I mainly got this cream because it has a SPF which my two last creams (Nivea & Body Shop) didn’t. There is so much product in this tub I think it will last a long time and I love the fact it doesn’t leave my skin feeling oily which a lot of creams do. 

Overall, I am super impressed and glad I purchased from this skincare range. I am so into nature and using all the natural ingredients that the earth provides within products and this brand working with Kew Gardens was also a plus for purchasing as all the money is going towards supporting a organic brand. The packaging is very appealing to featuring succulents and plants. The only downside is the price which is to expected as it is very good quality products, however they seem to often be on offer in Boots !

Boots UK | Botantics Brightening Range

L’Oreal Elvive Dream Lengths Hair Care

I first saw this range advertised on tv and was mesmerised by the long hair the girls had and when you have a goal to grow your hair long and thicker I think you are drawn to products that may help increase that chance. I have to admit I’m very sceptical when it comes to products that ‘do this and that’ Do they work?? Well for long hair, I’m willing to try!

A Christmas Gift Guide and Wish List

With Christmas just around the corner, it's time to start planning for it. It's the busiest time for retail shopping and it's always a good idea to have a few things in mind to get family, friends and also think about what you would like for yourself! So here are some of my favourite gift guides of 2017 and some ideas to get you started!

Ted Baker Luxury ~ Boots Uk

When I heard that Ted Baker had a brand new collection out in Boots, I couldnt wait for a day off to go into town to see if they had it! I have purchased many of their products in the past for myself and for gifts for friends and family and generally very impressed by their products.

As soon as I saw the new collection i was overwhemled with just how gorgeous it all looked! So pleased to see most of the packaging print was in Porcelain Rose, which if you know me, its my favourite design ever by Ted Baker and have many items in it! Its just so girly, pretty and elegant.

I have only made one purchase so far, I got a set called Little Luxuries (£12 Boots), which includes two mini products; a body lotion, body spray and a full size lip balm. All each come in gorgeous floral packaging, the lip balm has a rose gold lid which is so unique and elegant.

Overall I love the quality of these products cant wait to make my next purchase! I have included below some of my favourites by Ted Baker also including the brand new body lotion and body spray!
Please let me know your purchases and thoughts on this gorgeous range!?
