A few gems...

I have realised that I haven't been the greatest blogger recently, meaning I haven't posted anything in a while, however I have got a fair excuse! I have been rather busy lately with my   leavers ball and final exams coming up, so I'm sorry but things have been quite frantic. Anyway I have a few posts lined up and I excited to share it all!

Firstly in this post I am going to being introducing you to some lifesavers and handy products that have made the past few weeks a little bit easier.

 To start with is my new best friend, Iglu Mouth Ulcer Treatment. Due to a lot of stress recently from school, life and other things I have had some quite nasty and painful mouth ulcers, now normally I reach for some Bonjela and that clears it up in a few days or if I'm really feeling it I will gargle some salt water (yuck) however this time my usual techniques just weren't cutting it. So I went to a local pharmacy and asked them what I should do and they suggested this little miracle. It is A-mazing! You put on about a pea-sized amount (ew peas) and it almost instantly takes away the pain; it comes out the tube in a paste form and once it touches your saliva it reacts to form a gel barrier over the ulcer. It is really crazy and quite gross but like I said amazing so I have nothing to complain about with this product, it is a real lifesaver! 

Next up is Witch's Gentle Exfoliating Face Wash. Now this has always been a must have for me and I absolutely love this product, I have repurchased this exfoliater every time since I have bought it and have gone through countless bottles. I think also due to the stress I have had quite bad skin lately and this has helped a lot to keep it clear. The witch hazel extract is really great to help to calm down your skin and reduce redness. This scrub is not to harsh like some can be and also lathers nicely so it is gentle on your skin. 

I like to pair this with Nivea's Daily Essentials Oil Free Moisturising Day Cream, this also is an absolute favourite of mine, this too has been repurchased quite a few times and is my go-to face moisturiser. It leaves your skin feeling refreshed, nourished and rehydrated; with this a little goes a long way so you don't need a lot meaning this product also lasts a long time which I love! The fact that it is oil free means it is light weight and it also sinks in incredibly fast, not feeling sticky or claggy at all.

Last but  not least is Cutex's Acetone Free Nail Varnish Remover, now because my leavers ball has come up my mum treated me to having my nails done. However because my nails are now gels I can't use normal nail varnish remover when I want to take off my nail varnish. I popped into my local Boots to see if they had an acetone free remover that I had been told to use and found this mini bottle. It's only 100ml so it's smaller than normal bottles however I don't know how long I can afford to keep my nails so I thought it was quite handy in fact. This product exceeded my expectations as, without reason, I assumed because it was lacking in acetone I assumed it would not work as efficiently as normal nail varnish removers, however it is just as good, if not better than some. Now I'm no nails expert so my assumptions were obviously silly, but I was pleasantly surprised and am very happy with this product :) 

I am sorry for rambling on and to be honest I don't know how I had so much to say about these products but there you go. I'm sure someone out there like me will find this helpful or at least will agree with me, I hope.
