Nivea Creme




Now I know this isn't the most glamours of posts but I just had to quickly tell you all about my new obsession with Nivea creme. I have been suffering with extremely dry skin recently, especially on my legs (I blame the weather) and have found this to be one of the only things that works in combating the dryness. My house mate first introduced me to this in the summer, strangely enough, when we were on holiday as they used it to moisturise after we'd been in the sun all day. I didn't really think much of it until I went back to this pot in a last ditch attempt to get rid of my dry skin and found that this tub worked a near miracle at getting rid of the dryness I was suffering with.

Now admittedly it's pretty difficult to work with as it takes a while to rub in.The creme is so thick but perseverance does pay off as I'm now left with baby soft skin after only a few days of use. The creme also smells really fresh and as you can see from the above picture I am really getting through my tub! A word of warning though I wouldn't try using it before you go out/get dressed at it can take a while to sink in! I only really use it before bed.

The best thing about it too is its only £3.50 for a giant tub which lasts ages from superdrug. You can buy it here.

Do you have any unexpected miracle creams?

Lots of love

Soap and Glory Butter Yourself Body Lotion

I have to tell you about this product as it has turned into one of my absolute favourite moisturising products ever. I'm also a massive fan of anything Soap and Glory. For Christmas I was lucky enough to be given a giant haul of Soap and Glory products in the form of their many gifts sets and in one of them was this gorgeous moisturiser. I normally wouldn't have picked this up in boots as I've always been a Righteous Butter fan. But I am so glad this was included in the set otherwise I may never have tried it.  This moisturiser smells just as gorgeous as the other soap and glory products. It has a slightly citrusy smell and contains shea butter, orange water juice and mango oil amongst many other amazing ingredients. I have the pump version (you can also get this in a pot in the body butter version) and find it very handy. However the only annoyance is when the pump sometimes gets blocked. But this is something I can get over as the product is just so darn good. ...

The First Ever Post

Hi Everyone! So this is the first thing I have ever written on a blog. In fact, it is the first thing I have ever posted on the internet which has not involved a 140 character limit or been through the medium of a status update.  It has taken me a fair while to get round to creating one, what with me thinking one thing and another, however I've finally got here and thus El's Beauty Bazaar has been created! Over the past few months I have become increasingly interested in the world of blogging particularly with blogs concerned with all things beauty. So after reading the brilliant insights everyone had to offer on everything beauty related I decided that I wanted to join in with the opinions too! I can't wait to share some of my opinions and reviews on products that I love or maybe hate...with those who are just as obsessed with the world of beauty as I am. I'm really excited to hear from all other beauty bloggers out there and can't wait to start posting some ...

Maybelline Baby Lips

Hey Guys So after a long time searching I finally managed to get my hands on the most talked about lip balm this summer, Maybelline's Baby Lips. I don't know if its because there was so much hype surrounding them or because I had such high expectations for this lip balm, but when I finally got it I have to say I wasn't overly impressed with what I'd bought. I bought 'Minty Fresh' and 'Intense Care' mainly because they were the only ones left besides the tinted 'Cherry Lips', which just didn't appeal to me. I always buy lip balm for conditioning purposes so often steer clear of anything that is tinted. Don't get me wrong, I don't actually dislike the product at all I was just expecting a lot more from it due to the stir the range had caused when it came across from the U.S. Both products are fairly decent at moisturising but at the end of the day I don't feel they do much more than a tin of Vaseline which costs half the price....
