The Body Shop Facial Massager

I was rather skeptical of these after everyone raved about them, saying that they cleared their lumps and bumps on their skin that were not exactly spots. For £6, I refused to buy it. But after the Body Shop sale, I decided to buy one to see what all the fuss is about.

 So I tried using this either before or after moisturising, haven't fully decided which I prefer yet in terms of order. Turns out, that it is worth the hype. It feels so nice on the skin, I particularly prefer it on my jawline. Plus, it does get rid of unwanted lumps and bumps,especially on the forehead. By increasing bloodflow to the surface of the skin, it gives you a healthy natural glow. It apparently clears and decreases toxins...bonus!

What do you think of this tool? A nifty bit of beauty equipment or a waste of money?

L'Oreal Paris Studio Line Hot & Smooth Hot Straight Cream

Are you suffering from frizzy hair like me? No matter what time of the year I suffer from frizz, mainly from the baby hairs. In the Spring/Summer, my hair does a Monica from F.R.I.E.N.D.S and turns into an uncontrollable afro and in the Winter, the cold and rain just seems to fluff it up. Sometimes I just want a sleek, straight hairstyle with little volume. So what do I do? I pick up L'Oreal's Studio Line Hot & Smooth Hot Straight Cream. Sounds like it'll do the job right?
As you can see from the above picture, the bottle instructs you step-by-step on how to use it. It's a cream but slightly runnier than I expected. It smells really nice, not a particular scent like a fruit etc, but a nice refreshing, clean smell.

So I use this product predominantly before I dry my hair with the hair dryer because that's really the only time that it comes into contact with head. It doesn't tell you how much to use but I use about a small blob of it and run it through my hair root to tip but focusing on the tips. So after running it through my hair, I hadn't even dried it and I loved it already. My hair already felt smooth and nourished. After a little while with the hair dryer, I took a look at my hair a was amazed to see hardly any frizz! I then went to bed and woke up with amazingly sleek hair. This has been a God-send from the beauty world and has done wonders for my hair!

If you suffer from frizz or uncontrollable hair, give L'Oreal's Hot Straight Cream a try...it worked for me!

The Body Shop Mango Body Mist

The Body Shop had a major sale recently so I jumped at the chance to try one of their body mists. Instead of going for the usual coconut like everyone tries, I opted for the mango scent.
This has to be one the most refreshing, sweet scent I've ever smelled. I think it's absolutely incredible! It's great for one of those days where you don't want to wear perfume and you just want a quick spritz of something before you dash out of the door. If you love fruity, sweet smells, then this is perfect for you! It longevity is amazing  which is perfect for long days. I've been told on numerous occasions that I smelled nice, in which I proceeded to tell them it was this product!
The packaging is adorable and actually makes it feel and look as though the product is worth far more than it actually is. This is a great scent to use for the spring/summer time or to even bright up your winter!

This is by far one of my favourite Body Shop products...EVER.
I absolutely adore it!
Have you used a Body Shop Body mist before? What scent!
