A sucker for packaging !!!!

I went food shopping and went looking for the Vo5 hair miracle concentrate which I found for once.
While looking for it I came across these reduced to half price so they were something like £3.33 each .I fell in love with the packaging so I popped em in they promised good things one to be a hydrating lip plumper for fuller sexier lips and the other to reduce puffiness and dark circles soothing and firming  . Now it turns in to a rant they do absolutely nothing waste of money glad I didn't pay full price .I never expected much from them obviously because of the price its just a note to self don't be fooled by pretty  packaging .

I was however happy with the Vo5 miracle concentrate which I finally managed to get my hands on in Sainsburys of all places . Its love at first use another product where I would say do believe the hype.I cant express how in love with this product it leaves my hair silky smooth, the ends or not dry like they usually are,my hairs soft and shiny  and it smells gorgeous the best thing is being an oil it doesn't leave my hair with that greasy residue  that looks like your hair  needs a wash it absorbs nicely into the hair shaft and because it don't just stay on the hair it doesn't make my skin greasy either and i've been putting it on daily I recommend this product if your looking for a cheaper  alternative to Moroccan oil (which I have never tried ) it is smaller than I thought it would be but a little goes a long way   . My hair will never be the same again .

If  your wondering what the one next to it is.... its a pure form of argan oil which me being me purchased on eBay for about £6 when searching for a cheaper alternative to Moroccan oil .I hate this, it smells like Olive oil, it doesn't sink in just sits on top therefore making my hair look like it needs washing ,it made my skin oily so I got spots. Its quite a thick formula because of the results it didn't really do much for my hair as I hardly used it  ..maybe I could find another use for it any suggestions ??

Body shop haul !!!!



Once again I've been online and purchased some more Body Shop products , it would have been wrong not to when they was offering 30%  off for love your body card members and free delivery (see what I mean )aand a free gift . I've had my eye on the Seaweed Ionic clay mask as I've recently changed over to the Seaweed range and my skin has responded really well so being on the look out for a new face mask it was only natural to pick this one ,next I chose the Tea Tree face mask I'd read about it on a blog that morning which had me intrigued to try it and lastly was Tea Tree skin clearing facial wash as this too
 had great reviews and for the free gift it was a choice of  Vitamin E facial oil or Vitamin C skin reviver as my skin is quite oily I immediately went for the Vitamin C skin reviver . As usual I have to say that the body shop excel on speedy delivery .

I'm yet to use the facial wash I've tried both the face masks once I absolutely love the Tea Tree one it left my face soft , fresh and glowing  with no redness didn't really like the smell when I first opened it but once on it was relaxing it tingled in a nice way my fave of the two surprising .
The Sea Weed one stung a little nothing unbearable, it dried quickly on the skin, had a sea scent it left my skin a little red and it kinda drew the blemishes to the surface best not to do before a night out . It has left my skin oil free and smooth however .
will keep you updated on these products because I feel once is not enough to give a proper review.

I got the Vitamin C skin reviver as a free gift and I'm so happy I did as I most probably would have never even looked its way .I've been using it everyday for a week after moisturising I love the scent it seems to wake me up and feels nice on my skin .I haven't really noticed much of a change to my skin but my boyfriend and other people have commented that my make up looks nice . I haven't changed nothing except putting this on underneath my foundation . I will be looking into the Vitamin C range more the scent gives me that kick in the morning .

Current skin regime I'm enjoying at the moment the wash its quite thick and gel like and sometimes doesn't really foam but its doing the job of keeping me oil free and I'm not breaking out . I was using the toner morning and night but i got a few spots on my chin so cut down to night time only ,it used to sting at first but I don't get that no more and it leaves my skin really clean , mattifying day cream I've done a review on here http://sugaspiceallthingsnice.blogspot.com/2011/10/its-keeper.html .They do the job of keeping my skin oil free and preventing further break outs but wouldn't say they are my holy grail .
Things that work for my skin may not be right for you . I do recommend talking to an assistant as they are there to help , I used to get Vitamin E range thinking all skin types would be fine and it wasn't as I never took my skin type into consideration which was oily/combination skin .

with vitamin c skin reviver not sure what it does but I do like it .

Do believe the hype

sorry for the mitt I used it last night .
A quick post just to say some things really are worth all the hype .
lets start with

some of the cheaper brands I had tried but I had always gone back to St Tropez  .

 St Moriz fake tan personally I cant get enough of this tan and I've tried many. I almost gave up on this tan  ,I tried the spray one first and although I liked the colour and finish but it made way to much mess for me, it dripped all down the bottle onto the floor my hands basically everywhere I was left standing in a puddle of it  and  was like never again . How wrong was I after reading peoples blogs there was a lot of posts saying how good it was but  there was one difference they were showing the mousse version hmmmm I had to give it one last try if it worked for me it would save me heaps at £2.99 a can . I'm so glad I did I've got three full body coverages so far out of the can and I've already bought my back ups .Its such a natural looking colour no streaks and lasts a good week on my skin .I think I may go as far to say its better than my St Tropez shhhhh that's a secret. when it washes off I don't get that patchy look, its all even, I like the fact it has colour to it so you  can see where its applied. But of course it does have that fake tan smell I have no idea how to describe this smell do you ?? My boyfriends always moaning about the smell because I like to do it a bit before going to bed so I can leave it over night and I say to him "if you can invent one that doesn't smell you'd be a rich man"
I cant stress enough if you haven't got a mitt and you like fake tan get one , I'd always look at them then think oh next time as id already bought a lot of stuff etc and I thought they were point less as you could use you hands and I had this idea it would just soak up the product .Silly me they were made for a reason and are totally not a waste of money your hands cant do a better job it doesn't soak in the tan . It rubbed it in evenly left me with no patches, missed parts and stopped me having orange palms all for £2 something i'll never be without now .My colour came out beautiful.
