Bomb Cosmetics Ugly Duckling Bath Blaster

I purchased my first Bomb Cosmetics bath blaster the other day and I chose Ugly Duckling costing £2.50. How cute is this bath blaster?

It contains cocoa and shea butters, kukui nut oil and pure geranium essential oil. The scent is very fresh and uplifting, not overwhelming and harsh at all. I liked this one because it really felt as though I was giving my skin a good gentle treat. I also just adore the little duck.

Have you tried anything from Bomb Cosmetics?

His and Hers Pamper Night

Hi all, hope everyone had a great Christmas!

Back in November I was invited to the Braun Mummy Me Time event but as I was unable to make it (I was gutted) I was kindly sent some goodies for me and my boyfriend to have a pamper night instead! Included was the Braun SkinSpa and CoolTec.

I'll go first and tell you a bit about the SkinSpa, ladies first and all that.

This is the first epilator I have owned and it is not only an epilator but an exfoliation system as well, a right little multitasker.

The instrucions are quite easy to understand so I had no problems setting up. Oh I think I should mention that you will need a shaver adapter as it's a 2 pin plug, you can get them for a couple of quid of Ebay.

I started of with exfoliating my legs using the exfoliating brush that attaches to the device, such a good idea don't you think? Exfoliating prior to epilating should reduce the chance of ingrown hairs.

When it came down to epilating, I'm not gonna lie I was a bit nervous because I've heard a lot about it being painful but I got in a nice warm bath and got started. Yes it hurt, but only at first, I got used to it pretty quickly, maybe the high frequency massage system that is built into the device helped the pain.

The results were good, I will have to go over my legs again to get the strays though but that's no big deal, it was only my first time but I'm sure I will become a pro soon enough. This is definitely going to be my way of hair removal now, it's easier than waxing. I might brave the armpits and bikini line next...maybe. If needed you can also use this on your face.

It is available in Boots.

Onto the fellas gadget..the CoolTec, the worlds first shaver with active cooling technology.

This arrived just at the right time as Ky only broke his usual shaver the other day. He was eager to test this out so off into the bathroom he went. You can also use this in the shower if you like as well.

The shaver is fully charged in 1 hour or you can pop it on charge for 5 minutes and that should be enough for 1 shave.

The instructions, like the SkinSpa, were simple to understand which is always good. He enjoyed using the CoolTec and is impressed with the cooling feature, it definitely minimised shaving irritation.

This is also available in Boots.

Overall both of the products are good little gadgets, we both enjoyed the results and will carry on using the SkinSpa and CoolTec, If your looking for a gift for your other half, maybe keep these in mind as I'm sure whoever receives these will not be disappointed.

Have you tried epilating before? Do you have any tips?

Lush Pumkin Bubble Bar

I went into Lush the other day to check out some of their Halloween and Christmas goodies and I ended up leaving with this little cutie, the Pumkin bubble bar.

Yes he only has one eye, there was only 3 left and they were all one eyed pumpkins.

He contains ylang ylang oil and orange absolute to leave you feeling uplifted and refreshed. He also turns the bath water a pretty cool orange colour and I've managed to get 3 baths out of him seeing as he bubbles up pretty well. My skin felt so smooth after.
I'm planning on picking up the Lord of Misrule bath bomb next time I'm in store and no doubt another one of these will end up in my bathroom.

Charity Shop Haul August 2013 ♥

The other day I went charity shop shopping, I love it! You never know what you are going to find.

It was a successful day and here are some of the gems I found

I found this Baylis & Harding wild rose & raspberry leaf set in the first shop we went into, it cost £2.

Then I found this pastel blue Laura Ashley skirt, unfortunately it's a bit tight on me at the moment. This cost £4.

I noticed this just as I was about to leave one of the shops, it's a Yankee Candle tart warmer and only cost £3.

I also found a black pair of New Look Yes Yes skinny jeans for £3 and an old key cupboard for £3 that I plan on upcycling! Keep an eye out for some upcycling posts.

Today I went to a carboot sale, I haven't been to one in years!

We got there quite late so there wasn't many fabulous finds, but I did get these

Cottage Teapot 

Bird Figures

Pretty Picture

Beauty Finds

The first 3 were from a box I got for £1, the fella was packing up so was pretty much giving everything away.

The Shiseido foundation stick I got for FREE! The lady just gave us a bag a told us to fill it! The stick retails for around £30 so I'm super pleased with this.

Free is my favourite.

The Balance Me body wash I got for 50p, it retails for £9 so another good find.

All in all I think I done quite well, what do you think? 

     

Veet EasyWax Electrical Roll-On Kit

Hi guys,

I was lucky enough to be invited to a BzzCampaign for the new Veet EasyWax. Veet sent me the electrical roll on kit and refill for bikini and underarms!

I do use the Veet wax strips every now and then and I love them! So I was really excited to try this machine out.

I heated up the device for about 35 minutes then got to work on my gorilla legs. Surprisingly it was a really simple job.

It didn't get every single hair but I didn't expect it to, it got enough though. I would definitely recommend this and I am going to keep using this now instead of the wax strips.

Here is a discount code for 50% off....enter EASYWAX4 when you purchase it from Amazon.

Have you tried this out yet?
