First of all I use my trusty St Ives invigorating apricot scrub. If you been on my blog for a while you'll know I love this stuff and it's most definitely my all time favourite scrub (review here). Next up I use my Body Shop Cool and creamy tea tree wash. I've gone through so many bottles of this stuff! It's great at combating spots really quickly and leaves your face feeling squeaky clean (in a good way). For moisturiser I'm using the Palmers Cocoa butter formula. I don't like most face moisturisers as I find them quite thin, whereas this is a lot thicker which I prefer as I get eczema. And it smells great! If I'm in need of a facemask I reach for my Body Shop Seaweed ionic clay mask. This is great for combating oily skin and it also helps to soothe your skin which is great for when my eczema is playing up. Finally for my arms where most of my eczema occurs I use Nip +  Fab Pistachio body butter. Again I don't think I could rave more about this stuff. It's amazing at getting rid of my eczema and keeping it away and smells great. It was discontinued and is now only sold in Savers so I don't know what I'll do when they're all sold out of it!

What's in your winter skincare routine?

Thanking you,

Why, hello there...

This is my 2nd empties post! I don't really do many, because you actually have to buy new stuff and use up stuff to do an empties post...and nobody wants to see the same things over and over again! So I've decided I'm just going to post these when I have a least 5 products stored up instead of doing it monthly. Anyhoo, lets go!

1. Dove Daily care Shampoo, £2. This is just standard shampoo. This is apparently meant to be better if you have eczema, but I don't really see a difference between this and my current Alberto Balsam Shampoo which is only £1. But it's alright.

2. St Ives Daily scrub, Travel size, £1.20 I love this stuff! I went to get the full size bottle but they did have, so I'm currently using another travel size bottle, but it seems to last for a while anyway!

3. Aveeno moisturiser with Shea butter, £7.15 I've been using this as my daily moisturiser for ages and finally finished it! It was really good for my eczema so I would recommend it!

4. Dove roll on Original, £2.30 pretty standard, use this all the time.

5. Rimmel Stay matte Pressed powder, £3.99 This has recently become a blogger cult favourite, and I can understand why. It's really nice and silky and keeps you matte throughout the day, and it's a great price!


Have you tried any of these?

Thanking you,

Why, hello there...

I love this product! I saw another blogger saying they really liked it, so I found a travel size one to try it out. I will definitely be purchasing the full size! I always thought most face scrubs are ok, but didn't have enough 'scrubbing' power. This one has plenty. It has loads of little beads in it so it's great to waken your face up in the morning. It also smells really great, so refreshing and a hint of the apricot, but not too overpowering. Also as a plus, the packaging is really nice, and in ASDA the full size one is only £3!

Have you used St Ives? What face scrub do you use?

Thanking you,

Why, hello there...

A couple of weeks ago I went on my last little shopping trip before deciding to go on a spending bn, so here's what I bought!

St Ives apricot scrub, travel size, £1.20

I saw another blogger write a post on this and it looked really good. My skin gets really dry and flaky in the winter so hopefully this will do the job. I only got the travel size in case I didn't like it, but I love it so far, look out for a review!

Yankee candle, 75p (sale)  /  Book-shaped box, £1.25 There's this tiny shop near me which is a kind of weird spiritual stone kinda thing shop, but it does sell cute gifts and a tonne of yankee candles. These were in the sale so I thought I would buy then as possible christmas presents.

Hope you liked this post! What have you bought recently?

Thanking you,

Naomi
