Spring Skin Care Switch Up!

Hey Hey!

 

Welcome back and apologies for being quiet for a couple of days, I had planned on getting this post done yesterday, but my poor lil' Mumma was taken into hospital on Monday so I was required to carry out my daughterly duties <3 She's home now but still quite poorly so send lots of healing, happy thoughts!

 

 

Now, as we're finally coming out of what has felt like a never ending winter and heading into spring, I thought I would switch up my skincare routine.....admittedly I'm in the middle of a huge breakout so that helped me in making my decision too!

 

I decided to buy a few items from the SIMPLE range, I've used products here and there and always liked it, mainly because they do as they promise, they're great for sensitive skin like mine!

As you can see from the above I purchased 6 items from the range. Cleansing Facial Wipes, Eye Make-up Remover, Moisturising Facial Wash, Purifying Cleansing Lotion, Soothing Facial Toner and finally the Hydrating Light Moisturising. Each product is a good size and very well priced at between £3.50 - £5.50.

 

I don't use things like this daily, I like to let my skin remain natural for a few days a week, but I love that the ingredients in these products, along with the two vitamins (pro vitamin B5 and vitamin E) help me feel like what I'm using isn't too harsh. I also adore that no artificial perfumes or colours are used.

 

I have only been trying out the range for a few days, but so far I'm enjoying it and looking forward to seeing some results with my troublesome skin!

 

If you would like to purchase any of the above items, you can find them in most drug stores, such as Boots and Superdrug as well as in many supermarkets! Let me know if you already use them and what you think, or even if you use something else and would like to recommend something, drop me a comment!

 

I'll be back on Saturday, 'style Saturday!', with a look at another outfit that I picked up as a part of my recent haul from ASOS Curve, and on Sunday with a special Mothers Day post!

Enjoy the rest of your week lovelies,

Beauty Wednesday - OPI Fifty Shades Of Grey Collection.

 

Hey Hey!

 

Welcome back, and to Beauty Wednesday.

I recently visited the cinema to watch the highly anticipated Fifty Shades Of Grey, Mr Grey wasn't my cup of tea, but, the FSOG inspired set from the gods over at OPI definitely is!

I'm a huge fan of nail varnish, and have a reasonable collection, OPI has to be my current favourite, the polishes cover so well, have great pigmentation and the collection of colours is so immensely varied. You can appreciate my excitement when i found this little set of beauties!

 

The themed box contains 6, 3.75ml varnishes.

 

 

As you can see, OPI have created 6 gorgeous colours, and they have 6 equally great names -

 

Embrace The Gray - 'Let this chic, moody gray crème become one with you,'

~

Dark Side Of The Mood - 'This brooding, stormy charcoal is dangerously gorgeous.'

~

Shine For Me - 'The shimmering silverwith subtle blue sparkle really turns me on!'

~

My Silk Tie - 'This silky, gleaming silver has got me all tied up.'

~

Romantically Involved - 'I'm in a deep relationship with this luscious crème red.'

~

Cement The Deal - 'I'd sign anything to get my hands on this stony, cool gray.'

 

 

As always with OPI products, in my opinion, they paint really well and give great coverage. They dry in a reasonable time and always last well on my nails, and I'm a busy mummy of two!

The only Issue I have with the set is that the two crème grey colours are sooooo close to being the same once dried, when I was taking the pictures I actually got myself confused......but to be honest, that really isn't that hard!

Overall I highly recommend the set, its a great way to experiment with different colours at a very reasonable price. The set retails at around £19.95, for 6 OPI products I think that's great.

 

 

I hope this peek will encourage you to delve into the 50 Shades collection. If you do let me know what you think!

Have a great week!

 

Much Love,
