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 perfect summer moisturising duo

I promise you this post isn't sponsored by Garnier! It just so happens that these are the two products I love during the summer months. During summer it's essential to keep moisturised to maintain the summer glow that you may have acquired from going abroad (or this year from the gorgeous weather we've had in the UK!) and the Garnier Body Intensive 7 Days is perfect for hydrating thirsty skin, whilst the Garnier Ambre Solaire After Sun is brilliant for maintaining your tan.  Garnier Body Intensive 7 Days  The reason I love this product so much is because it is such a light moisturiser. It's very easily absorbed and leaves your skin feeling beautifully soft. The light scent you get from the Shea Butter isn't heavy and doesn't linger which I quite like in a moisturiser so it doesn't affect the scent of my perfume. I'm unsure as to it's 7 day moisturising claim as I have never actually gone a week without using this product but there has been ...

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...
