Bodyshop New summer perfumes & Lotions.

BODYSHOP NEW SUMMER FRAGRANCE RANGE.


LIMITED ED.

*I have seen a lot of blogs where the bodyshop must have sent them items to post up for free*
WARNING: I have a genuine love for the body shop and these were all brought with my own hard earned cash I have email receipts as these were purchased online. Therefore you are promised a genuine honest reveiw.

I didnt buy these all at once & today I received the last products for the set.
Here is a group photo showing the perfumes and the lotion to match.

All perfumes are 60ml and retail for 15.00 each.
All lotions are 250ml and retail for 9.00 each.



1. Love etc sun kiss.
This is my fave =)
This summery fragrance is a blend of jasmine and fresh nectarine notes. It is deliciously light, upbeat and cheeky. Perfumer Dominique Ropion says, “I used nectarine with an unexpected solar accord, perfectly embodying the scent of summertime.”
The scent stays on well but I love it so much I got the lotion to enhance the gorgeous smell.

As this is limited ed. I would deffo like perhaps another 3/4 bottles of this its stunning.


2. Dreams unlimited sun fresh. My 2nd fave.
I already have an extra bottle of this for a back up =)

This summery fragrance is a blend of neroli blossom and refreshing watermelon notes. It is vibrant, energising and as refreshing as a splash in the ocean. Perfumer Loc Dong says, “I added freshness with sea spray and fruity watermelon for an unexpected fragrance fusion.”

And it is soooo fresh.


3. White musk sun glow

My least fave but still nice

This summery fragrance is a blend of peony, soft peach notes and a shot of zesty lemon. It is elegant, seductive and feminine. Perfumer Domitille Bertier says, “I brought a joyful and luminous touch to this iconic musk by adding a zing of lemon and a dash of amber.”



The bottles and the colours are so nice. I love them.


Have you tried any of these yet and what did you think?

2. Seaweed ionic clay mask by THE BODY SHOP.

No 7 Beautiful Skin Range. NORMAL/OILY SKIN

No 7 Beautiful Skin Range. NORMAL/OILY SKIN

I will be reveiwing two products. I havent brought anything from the number 7 range for ages and was so excited to try something new from them and maybe begin to 'get into this brand' .... Here are the 2 products I tried.



No7 Beautiful Skin Foaming Cleanser for normal / oily skin

I was lucky enough to try this product for 1.50 for the full size
RRP IS 9.00 for 200ml (full size)

What is said on boots website?

'The No7 Beautiful Skin Foaming Cleanser gently removes make-up and impurities and tightens pores – delivering in one step the same results other regimes offer in two – to leave skin clean, refreshed and feeling fabulous.'

And currently the reveiws score 4/5

My thoughts:

This product is very easy to use and has a lovely closed off pump system to avoid getting grime into the product. I use 1-2 pumps of this product and feel that this gives a nice amount. The foam is so gental and perfect for sensitive skin that is also oily! This doesnt leave the skin with that sand paper red glow =) The product smells nice and 'clean' no over bearing smells which makes the product appear that it has less harmfull chemicals in it.

All in all I think I would buy this product again but it would have to be on offer as the RRP of 9.00 is a tad expensive despite this product being 'nice' it is just 'nice' and nothing extra special.

-----------------------------------------

No7 Beautiful Skin Purifing Exfoliator

I was able to try this product for the amazing price of 50p for the full size product.

RRP 8.00

This has not yet been reviewed on boots website.

My thoughts:

I prefer this to the foaming clenser, It has a gorgeous clean smell and does not leave my sensitive skin bright red after using it. The exfoliating beads are very gental and small. I do love this product. I think I would buy this product again when on offer as I think 8.00 is still a bit expensive for a high street exfoliator!

 



If you see these on offer I would deffo pick these up and try them especially the exfoliator!
I am in no way connected with boots. These price promotions I got these products for was also at a price any member of the public could have brought these products for. And these are my personal opinions.

Any questions please leave a comment.

Please follow my blog.
Thanks

Soap & Glory Lip balms

SOAP AND GLORY LIP BALM

Avalible in boots for 5.00 each
3 Flavours to collect.
 - SWEET Coconut
- JUICY Peach
- Cherry and chocolate

each come in a tin!

<3


Coconut - clear with gold and pink glitter bits in it - I found it dissapointng in boots that they had no proper tester when you pulled the draw out it had a plastic bubble which tried to describe the product - Crap! And if it handnt been for a product that somebody had already opened that I stolen a sniff off I wouldnt have brought eaither of these as I wouldnt have known how nice they were!



Gorgeous packaging and harder to loose than lip balms in sticks!


This juicy peach one is my fave of the 3 due to scent and colour - they really are adorable!

Love this so much - the peach one goes everywhere with me!



These have a self life of a year after opening (so say the packaging)
Retail for 5.00 each from boots, very worth it when you take into account lush charge 4.50 for a tinny tinny tin and you need to warm it up to high heaven before you can get it to a nice consitancy to even put on your lips!

I love these. I want the cherry one but very unsure of the colour as I like nude lips!
We will see.

Avon Haul

Various items I got this time round from Avon!



Travel Bag which was around 14.00 usuall brochure price is 18.00 I think. It is a nice enough bag but I think Primark could do the same for around 9.00 in fact I beleive they do. So not really that impressed! We will see how long it lasts! I am thinking of jazzing it up aswell a bit!


From the clearance booklet I decided to try some of the following from planet spa range as I have never had a hot oil treatment before I given that a go for 1.80 I think it was. Shame it didnt come with any instructions. I found some advice on youtube though. And I got a variety of face masks and is also a scrub aswell and these were all 1.50 each which isnt bad for a mask in a tube! I also got the bath soak as I thought it would be very relaxing and a good replacement for lush's lil baby bot. But I sadly dont think it comes close.


I love the fergie perfumes. I tried the perfume of this last year and for xmas my mum got me the outspoken intense so I decided to get this set all 3 for 20.00 - 30ml perfume, decent size lotion and a spray! And hair conditioner was 1.00 - Bargain.

Eye shaddow which I havent used yet. I got this as a freebie from my avon rep =)
ANEW lip plumping conditioner 5.00
and Ideal flawless pressed powder in the lightest shade they do pretty sure this was 5.00 this time around.


Vanilla lipstick - smells gorgeous! Think this was 2.00
Other lipstick dont really smell nice and thats in 'never so nude' think this was 4/5 pounds
Nail fortifier in sale 1.50
A glimmer stick which was also a freebie from my avon lady!
Eye shaddow stick in a chocolate colour and a highlight shade around 4.00 this was


Thats all <3

1st Carboot sale of the YEAR!

1st carboot loot of this year haul.


All of the things I got =)


I ran out of my usual redken after almost over a year and 3 months so was going to re-purchase until I seen this still full for 5.00 was on a womans stall who had a few tigi products and makeup. I thought it was well worth it as the redken would have cost me almost 14.00 at the cheapest. So saved 9.00 as far as im concerned and think it is the same ml.


This wooden flower ring thing was 1.00 - Thought it was quite unusual.


Nail varnish from a stall selling all brand new make up rather like a market stall - were 1.50 each and I got these in sin and milk chocolate. The bourjois lipstick is a tester which was 1.00 BRAND NEW. From the same stall as the ego boost by tigi. 

Arts and craft bits and peices.

1/2 Unexpected Haul.

Weird title ... I know!

1/2 of this Haul I was of course expecting because I ordered it -
the other 1/2 I just totally randomly purchased today.

Bodyshop. ASOS. GLAMOUR MAG & COSMO FREEBIES. PRE-LOVED ITEMS FROM FACEBOOK.

THE BODY SHOP.
Had a spend 50.00 get 25.00 off - so everything was 1/2 price really. So I decided to get the extra virgin foundation range (all in the lightest shades they do), satsuma hand gel, another make up sponge (I <3 these), a coca lip care stick, and a 4 way nail care block.

So exited to try out the foundations.


The compact (Cream to powder comes) with mirror but product does have a very deep pan considering this is usually 16.00! Comes with a nice quality brush! Being very pale and not having much choice in make up to suit my skin tone - I am initially very impressed with how light the powder is - thing this has the potential to be a real winner <3 And finally the liquid foundation <3




How Pale and GORGEOUS is that?




Not very deep for 16.00 !

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FREEBIES!
Who doesn't like a freebie?
<3

I was at work and went to WHS down stairs in my break and found these beautys - I have been waiting and looking around everytime ive been in there for a decent freebie!
FINALLY MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED

With cosmopolitan - 3.50

Free CLINIQUE GOODIES - Rather like the glamour offer but not as good as the glamour one last year was only 2.00 !

But the magazine is much better than glamour I think!
I got the mascarra as I remember this from last year and love it <3


The other options avalible with this magazine!


Free with GLAMOUR is hair care products by 'PERCY REED of London' EST. 2007


The other options avalibe with this magazine :
