I generally like to buy things when they’re offer, so when I needed some new skincare products and my go to brand wasn’t on offer I decided to use that as an opportunity to try some new brands and products.
I had heard good things about the Boots Botanics range and they had a lot of stuff for half price, so I went to my local Boots and sourced some new skincare goodies.
So what did I buy?
Not too long ago Lidl released a bunch of new beauty products, that not only look great but are all super budget friendly. The range contains, BB creams, eyeshadows, mascaras, lipsticks, lip glosses, nail polishes and more. I decided to head to my local Lidl recently and pick up a few bits to try out.

I’ve been wanting to try a coffee scrub for ages and then after a major splurge in Boots recently I finally bought one. I bought the Coconut Coffee scrub from GROUNDED.
From the Boots Website – Introducing the new Grounded Body scrub with added extra virgin coconut oil. It’s the little tropical body scrub packed with the vitamins and minerals you need for gorgeously smooth skin. Its made with ground Robusta coffee beans so its rougher than your average scrub, with enough caffeine in to pack a punch. This body scrub contains brown sugar and himilayan rock salt to scrub away dry, dead or flakey skin leaving your skin extremely soft. This scrub leaves your skin moisturised and hydrated with vitamin e oil and cold pressed almond oil. Use me 3-4 times a week to keep skin looking healthy and smooth. Read More
I’ve been particularly rubbish sustaining any sort of night routine with taking my make up off. I’ve had times where I’ve been really good with it and then forgotten about it. I’ve recently got back into bullet journaling again and made my skincare routine one of my habit trackers.
I bought the Garnier softening cleansing lotion and their soothing  vitamin-enriched toner when they were on offer in Boots (I’ve found out they are pretty much always on some kind of offer – winning!). Read More
I thought for my first post as my skin is far from perfect I would start with a short series about it. Let’s face it we all see changes in our skin over the years, whilst I may not still be entirely happy with mine (who is?) I have learnt to accept it for being part of me.
So let’s start with my teen years…
I don’t remember my first spot, I’m pretty sure I got a million to start with. It was horrible, 
teenage skin can be cruel. All those hormones flying about and you want to give us periods too? Oh thanks very much, whatever did we do to deserve this.
Unfortunately at the time Clearasil was at the forefront of acne advertising. I don’t know what it’s like now of course but if I could change ever thinking this stuff helped, I would. It felt like there was nothing that helped my face, I went through each product in the hope of clear skin. Nope! Read More
