Beauty Essentials



Description:  
As part of the #30daysofbeauty challenge here are my holy grails of beauty products (I will do a make-up version but it would have been far too much for one picture) . These are the products that I use on a regular basis and I find myself restocking.

Review:
I’ll go  from top left along to the bottom line finishing with the nail polish . Some of these I have already done reviews for so I’ll leave the links to those below. J

1)      Sure Maximum Protection Deodorant –
This deodorant is absolute god send! You put it on the night before and wash it off in the morning and it claims to give you 24hour protection. I swear by this but recently it doesn’t seem to work for me. Maybe ive over used it or something. Still worth a try if your sweat a lot like me!

2)      Clinique Anti Blemish Solutions –
I use this every night before bed and it really does help to reduce my redness. I love the packaging and even though it is on the pricey side a little goes a long way.


3)      Soap and Glory Body Butter Milk –
I use this body butter every day after getting out the shower. It helps to keep my skin nourished and radiant. It is a body butter but its surprising how quickly its absorbed into the skin. I find the bottles of body butter less thick than the tubs. I prefer the pump because I don’t end up with loads of product in my nails. I’ve just run out of this (sad times) so ill be going out asap to buy another. I’ve tried a few of the variations and I love them all. The only difference really is the colour and scent.


4)      St Mortiz Fake Tanning Mouse Medium –
This is my go to fake tan. One layer of the medium is perfect for the winter. Double up with two coats for a darker colour. I prefer a mouse application because I find it easier to apply but I know a lot of people like the lotions.


5)      Fizz Ease shampoo John Frieda-
The John Frieda haircare range is just amazing and I’m pretty sure there isn’t anything that would be disappointing. This shampoo helps to get rid of frizz and it really makes your hair so shiny and soft. A massive recommend for those with unruley thick hair of those whose hair is getting a bit dry in this winter weather.

6)      Aussie Miracle Recharge Leave In Conditioner –
This is a leave in conditioner that you can apply to either wet or dry hair. I use this when I come out of the shower with wet hair and also after using heat styling tools. It smells incredible and it really does help to give your hair that extra bit of oomph. I think I must be on my 10th or so bottle by now!

7)      Clearasil Exfoliator Pads –
I use one of these every morning to make sure that I have the perfect base for my foundation. It deeply unclogs pores and gets rid of any residue that’s left or been built up over night.  One side of the pad has diamond shaped ridges which can be quite hard and the other side is softer. At first I thought these were a bit tough for my skin but you soon get used to it. I follow this with a good moisturiser (or primer if you prefer) and your make up glides on so smoothly.

8)      Essie ‘Good to Go’ Top Coat –
This is the only top coat I use and I’m on my 5th bottle. I think that says something about how good it is!  It gives a really high shine that almost looks like you have gel nails on. It doesn’t fade or chip AT ALL and it also dries really quickly so no annoying waiting about!  

Where to buy: 

You can get all of these products from boots. Everything except for the Clinique and Soap and Glory products you can get in Superdrug. You can also get the Clinique from Debenhams and House of Fraser.


Love of love xoxo
