Hi guys,
I have been mega
busy with college recently. I feel as though the first couple of weeks are ok
and when you take your eye off the ball for two minutes, you seem be drowning
in studying, exams and reports! Anyway, as this week has been all about
college, the gym has taken a back seat. I honestly do not have time but
hopefully I can get back into the swing of things sooner rather than later.
I wanted to do a different kind of post today rather than another review or Christmas post so I looked at my empties and asked myself "Would I Really Buy These Again?" There are some surprises in here but there are a few which i'm certain you will agree with me. Lets dive straight in.
The first I
have to talk about is the Alpha H Liquid Gold with Glycolic Acid (£31.50), this is an intensive
treatment to be used at night on all skin types. It works to reduce
pigmentation, resurface and firm skin as well as tighten enlarged pores. I have
loved using this product over the past couple of months and I would definitely
repurchase as I have there has been a visible difference in my skin. I use this
twice per week as it’s very strong.
Would I buy
this again? Uhm is the Pope a Catholic? Of course I would buy the Maybelline Falsies Mascara (£7.99) again as it is an all-time favourite. The formula is
quite wet but it coats each and every lash which makes them look fuller and
longer. This has never smudged under my eyes or collected at the outer corners
like most mascaras do.
I love face
masks and normally I use them twice a week to give my skin a little boost of
whatever it needs. I picked the Sanctuary Spa 5 minute Thermal Detox Mask (£10) a few months ago in Boots and I have
to say it is honestly one of the best masks I have tried. It is to be used on
damp skin which then heats up. It does feel quite an odd at first but great at
the same time. It draws out the impurities in my skin as it has kaolin clay and
charcoal so if I feel a little bump under my skin I whack this on which allows
it to be drawn out. I have cheated a little and already picked up a new tube ha-ha.
I picked up
the Body Shop Wild Argan Oil Bubbling Bath (£8) a while ago and have finally
used it up but I wasn’t overly impressed with it. I normally love The Body Shop
products but this just didn’t wow me so I wouldn’t purchase again. The scent
was ok and it did make my skin feel soft but there are so many more products
out there that do a better job to be honest.
I always have
something from Soap and Glory in my bathroom, actually that’s a lie I always
have about 10 items in my bathroom but one I wouldn't repurchase again is the Soap
and Glory The Scrub of Your Life which you can buy for £8 in Boots. I loved
the smell, of course I did but I didn’t like the consistency of it and I hated
how it felt on my skin. I felt as though it was too hard to work into my skin
while I was in the shower or a bath and it didn’t remove easily either. Won’t
buy again I’m afraid.
That’s all I
have for today guys, let me know if you have tried any of these and if you
would repurchase them. I have also been lucky enough to receive some money off
