Quick Review | Soap & Glory Clean On Me

Quick review because there isn't much to say about shower gel. I'm reviewing it because of the built-in body lotion. I hadn't seen a shower gel with build-in lotion before, so i bought a small one to try it. It smells does smell nice, not a strong sent. It leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth. My skin felt smooth for a a day or two after. Which is good for me because i'm lazy with body lotion.

Would i buy it again? Yes once i get through the shower gel i have. This was the first soap and glory shower gel i've tried. Because i liked it i bought a different one to try.

Soap&Glory Peaches and Clean Cleansing Milk Review

 

 I've been using this for a while now and figured it was about time i did a review on it. This smell divine and I'd buy it just for the smell.

What it says:

• 3-in-1 cleansing, smoothing and revitalising milk
• Deep purifying, T-zone declogging
• Boosts circulation and re-energises skin
• Melts away make-up and blackhead-causing buildup
• Balanced for all skin types

 For cleansing it does a good job. After using this my skin feels super smooth and soft. My face feels refreshed and not as dry as usual. Which is good for me. I feel it did a little for my t-zone but nothing to noticeable as my forehead is breaking out at the moment. For washing away makeup it does an okay job. You can see the makeup melting but it doesn't wash it all way. Which is okay for me since i don't wear to much. But i still need to use a makeup remover after.

Mine is only a small bottle and i got it in a gift set. I probably would buy it again after I've finished using it and it's gentle and works okay. 

You can buy it from boots for only £8 here. 

It's in the new packaging which to me doesn't look as good, but it has a pump and that's always better.

Soap & Glory - Dr Spot | Review

Firstly the packaging has changed, so if you want to buy it, it no longer looks like this. I'm not sure if i like the new packaging though.

What it says:

• extra-strength with pore-refining salicylic and lactic acids

• begins working immediately on application
• with irritation soothers and redness reducers
• slows down oil-secretion
• strategically formulated for oily and combination skin 

This truly works. It works from the first application, drying out the spot and reducing redness within hours. After about a day you will notice that the spot is getting smaller and after a few days it will be almost gone if not gone completely. You can even use it under makeup as it creates a invisible barrier between it and the makeup.  You only need a small amount for one spot so it lasts quite some time even though it's only a small tube.

I can't say if it drys the skin or not as i have dry skin to start with.

I'd say this is for the random breakout spots you may get and not to treat acne though.

Would i buy it again? Yes when i run out as it really does work. I use this every time i get a breakout.

Sorry i can't link to boots the site isn't working for me, but here it is from the Soap & Glory site.

Soap & Glory - The Fab Pore Facial Peel Review

 Intensive-Action Pore Refining Facial Peel.

I've been using this for a while. I use it when i feel like my skin needs an extra cleaning. It isn't harsh on the skin but i feel it deep cleans better than a face wash. It's easy to apply, just massage onto the face until the beads disappear.

What it says:

The Fab Pore™ has an intensive pore refining action with our exclusive PORESHRINK-R COMPLEX™. Ideal for greasy, spot prone or problem skin, or for a strategic attack on a misbehaving T-zone.

• FOMES OFFICINALIS EXTRACT: A mushroom extract to tighten pores.
• SALICYLIC ACID: which loosens up the dead cells that contribute to pore clogging
• KAOLIN: that’s ‘cosmetic’ for clay. It sops up extra oil on your skin and smoothes your skin’s surface
• VITAMINS E & C: Antioxidants. Just because you’re oily, doesn’t mean you’re not aging 
  
  

As you probably know salicylic acid is good for acne. So this helps to fight any breakouts that you might have. I can always see a difference to my skin after using it. It leaves the skin very smooth and tightened a little. I can't quite place the smell, but it's subtle and not bad. My pores do look smaller. 

 I tend to use it maybe once a month or every two months. It's a big-ish tub so it lasts a long time. I'm not even half way through the tub yet and I've had it since January i think. 

Overall it does it's job and i would probably buy it again. It costs £10 at boots or £9.50 at Havery Nicholes.

For Daily Youth Soap And Glory Review

I've been using this for a few months now, I'm loving it. It's quite light weight and doesn't leave your face feeling greasy. It does really well moisturising the face. I have dry skin and it's really helped my skin leaving it feeling moisturised all day and leaves it feeling nice and soft. It has a pump which i love as it's more hygienic. I've used it everyday and most nights, i still have about 1/4 left, so it lasts a quite a while.
Only a small amount is needed for the whole face, just one pump.
There isn't really much of a smell just a slight one, which i can't quite place.

As for my face glowing, i don't think it does anything or if it does i don't notice it.

The packaging has changed which to me looks a look more sleek now. I will probably buy this again once I've run out.

You can buy it from boots here.

I went shopping...

I intended to go into lush and buy a few things, but i couldn't decide what to buy when i was in there. So i only bought one thing.

• Collection 2000 Felt Tip Liner
• Lush Stepping Stone Food Scrub
• Soap & Glory You Won't Believe Your Eyes
• Soap & Glory The Fab Pore
• Soap & Glory Foot Buff

Boots are having a 3 for 2 on Soap & Glory stuff, so i decided to try out some more of their stuff.

The Lush food scrub i have used once so fair, and so fair I'm liking it, I'll post about it after i have used it all.

 I also got some new slippers, I've been in need of some new slippers for a long time.

And when i found these Totoro ones online i had to buy them!!!

In LOVE with my slippers.

If you don't know what Totoro is, it's a creature from My Neighbour Totoro. 

It's a Japanese Anime film, and i recomend you all to watch it ^_^

January Favourites/Reivew

 

I did buy quite a few new products this month. I like trying new things. But these are my favourites. 

 Garnier makeup remover - It works quite well, it's proberly not the best out there. I'v been useing it for a month and it's worked fine. Removes most of the makeup. The problem is eyeliner on the lower line, but i just put some of the product in a old contact case and dab a cutton bud in it to use around my eye.

Tresemmé heat defence styling spray - This is a product i buy over and over. It leaves the hair feeling so soft. Since i use heat on my hair almost everyday i really do need one.

Superdrug dry shampoo - I normally buy the Batiste but i saw this had a offer on at buy 1 get 2 free. When i saw that i had to try it. Since they are only £1.75 to buy, i figured i wouldn't lose to much if it turned out to be rubbish. But it's actually quite good, it has a really nice smell to it as well. Which i was smelling all day. It's a fresh smell. A little orangey smell i would say.

Sanctuary pore refining toner - It's supposed to help minimise the appearance of pores without drying out the skin. Which i would say it does. You can feel it working when you use it. It's a slight tingerling feeling. It had a nice smell, as it is naturally fragranced with plant extracts and essential oils. I will be buying it again.

Clinique dramatically different moisturizing lotion - I'v been looking for a mousteriser for dry skin for a while, since the cold weather dryed it out a little. Since it isn't cheep i wasn't sure about buying it at first, but i did. And i'm glad i did. It works, my face isn't as dry anymore. It leaves it feeling nice a soft. You actually don't need a lot of the product to cover the whole face. So i think it will last a while. It says it's for very dry to dry combination. I proberly won't be able to use it in the summer, since my skin isn't dry then. But i will be buying it again, and i think it is worth the price. It glides on nice and easy and has a nice smell.

Simple soothing eye balm - It feels so nice on the eyes. It wakes them up on a morning too. It says it reduces puffiness, soothes and nutures. I don't know if it reducess puffiness as i don't have puffy eyes, but it does sooth and nutures. The skin under my eyes feels a lot smoother and healthier. I will also say it has made my dark under eye circles less darker. Since it's not supposed to do that, it's a nice added bonus.

Soap and glory dr spot - I don't get to many spots, but when i do, like everyone i want them to go just as quickly as they came. This does that. Within about a week of useing, the spot was almost gone. You can tell it's working. It doesn't dry out the skin. And it drys clear, so you can apply makeup over the top of it. It's a little barrier between makeup and the spot. I used it twice a day and poof they went. Now when a spot comes i use this.

Sanctuary body butter - I LOVE this. Leaves the skin so soft, smells amazing, and the smell lasts all day. I applyed it went shopping and smelt something nice, i was like ooh whats that smell, then i realised it was me :)
I wasn't expecting it to last all day since most others don't, and i was very happy to find out it did. It has cocoa butter, shea butter and macadamia nut oil. I think the smell comes from the macadamia nut oil. I bought the sample to try it, and at christmas my mum bought me a sanctuary set which had the full sized one in it. I now refill my small one up as it doesn't take up to much space on my desk. The small one lasted me at least a month, as i bought the small one near the end of december.

Technic hide it concealer palette - I have been looking for a long time for a concealer that hides my annoying dark circles. This comes with a yellow which neutralises dark undereye circles. Then i normally use a Sleek one to cover up the yellow. Which i haven't listed on here but i should have. But this technic one is very cheep and for the price i am very happy with what it does. It also has a green which is supposed to calm down redness, but since my face doesn't have any redness i don't use it. It comes with two little brushes, but i find them useless. I will buy it again unless i find a better palette with yellow.

Okay so this ended up been a reivew of the products, instead of just been a favourites, oh well.
