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.

My other love in life...

Is music. So I thought I might try mixing things up a little bit. Not every week, but most weeks I'm going to start posting tracks on here that are my most listened too and highly recommend. It might be fairly sporadic as will only be when I think a track is really worth sharing and I might just add it into my usual posts. What do you all think? I've being toying with the idea for a while and have decided to just go for it. I love listening to music of any genre and love sharing tracks with my friends so thought I would include you lot in that too. My taste in music is a bit all over the place. There isn't really a specific genre of music I love so each thing I post is going to be fairly random and will just be what I'm into at that moment in time. So a word of warning it might not be to everyone's taste! So here's my first track of the week.. So this is Changes by Faul & Wad Ad Vs Pnau.  I heard this about 3 weeks ago and it screame

B. Pure Micellar Water

When I was in Superdrug a few weeks ago I saw this on my way to the check out and completely jumped at the chance to finally try out the craze that has swept the blogging world. This is my first product from the B. range at Superdrug and I'm already impressed. I didn't know what to expect from micellar water, having never tried one before, but I have found it pretty effective so far. I use this as my first cleanse to get rid of any initial make-up and impurities that are on my skin before I go onto wash my face with a liquid gel cleanser. I literally sweep this over my face with a cotton pad and its extremely effective at getting rid of most make up. It isn't amazing with waterproof mascara so I do end up using my bi- phase eye make-up remover to get rid of any remaining mascara, but on the days when I haven't gone for the water proof stuff it's perfect. To be honest though, apart from Boots No.7 Beautiful Skin Eye Make-up Remover I haven't yet found anythi
