Dr. Botanicals: Moroccan Rose Superfood Facial Oil (Review)

I was invited to review this as part of the Dr. Botanicals reviewer club, I was given a discounted price but my reviews are completely honest.

Here’s all the blurb:

“This Moroccan Rose infused Facial oil is packed full of minerals and vitamins, all working together to rejuvenate, renew and protect skin. Rich in antioxidants and moisturising properties to keep your skin protected and hydrated when it needs it most.

We believe oils and plant extracts can make a genuine difference to skin. Never tested on animals, this range embodies our belief in the potent power of botanicals. 

The main active ingredients in the formulation are:

1) Vitamin C helps to stimulate collagen production, for younger-looking skin.
2) Vitamin A is a powerful antioxidant with aims to rejuvenate skin, even skin tone and reduce the signs of ageing; while protecting from free radicals.

Sanctuary Spa Mini Reviews

I’ve always loved to pick up travel mini’s for holidays for obvious reasons but recently I’ve noticed a lot more variety in products available and I’ve been buying them as a tester before buying a bigger full size product. Mostly they are between £1-2 so it’s a bargain and sometimes there will even be a 3 for 2 on as well. More bargains.

I grabbed these Sanctuary mini’s in Boots with more necessary travel mini’s like deodorants and shampoos. But a few beauty treats are always a necessity right? Read More

ColourPop MakeUp Haul

I’ve never tried ColourPop MakeUp before but when Jeffree Star reviewed their ILUVSARAHII X ColourPop Chic-Y & $aucey Pressed Powder Palettes, I was like GIIIIIRRRRRRRL that purple palette was made for me! I was so happy to see someone doing a colourful palette, I’m getting so sick of neutral palettes all over everywhere.

I was browsing around ColourPop for a while and I signed up for their newsletter and was given a discount code, they also had a Raid The Mini Bar offer where when you spend $20 you get to choose a mini satin lip sampler from their mini bar, so I basically had to do a bit of a haul. Then for every additional $10 you could pick another mini satin lip sampler, so I ended up being able to pick five! Now y’all know your girl isn’t big into lip products so I chose three for me and two for Sarah. Check out the goodies I got…

Our Favourite Scents For Men

There are hundreds of men’s fragrances out there, but in our opinion, there’s very few that really WOW us gals.
I can’t speak for Sarah, but I know my guy isn’t at all fussy, he generally likes every scent I buy for him, he probably wouldn’t go out of his way to buy any for himself; he’s ace at picking out perfumes for me though.

We thought we’d share some of our top scents for men with you, as between the two of us we’ve bought quite a few for our other halves over the years and tested many a sample on them too, they’re really the best guinea pigs. These might give you some ideas if you’re looking to treat your guy to some new scents.
