My Wishlist! :-)

Hey guys,

 

I think it is very important to have a wishlist each month! I especially love it when I buy an item from my wishlist and I get to tick it off :-) It gives me such a great feeling! I thought it was about time I shared my wishlist with you guys! Especially since it is my Birthday on the 21st of August so you never know, they might all be ticked off by the end of the month!

 

 

 1) YSL Glossy Stain (Shade 7) - I currently have one of the L'Oreal Glam Shine Stain Splash but they don't have much of a colour selection! I absolutely love my Glam Shine Stain and if they had a bigger selection then I wouldn't think twice about getting another! YSL have so many colours to choose from and I must admit I do want to compare the two to see if they are any different (Mainly due to people saying they are a great dupe). After all, L'Oreal and YSL are part of the same group.

 

2) Soap & Glory Products - Butter Yourself, The Breakfast Scrub, Fab Pore Hot Cloth Cleanser, Smooch Operator Lip Butter Balm - As you know from my previous review post I am absolutely mad for Soap & Glory products, if I could buy all of the products I would, but after spending ages looking at the Boots website I finally narrowed it down to a top 4! Fab Pore Hot Cloth Cleanser is in my top 4, purely because I have nearly run out of my current cleanser. Same with The Breakfast Scrub, I have almost used all of my current Soap & Glory Scrub 'Em And Leave 'Em. Body Buff so I fancy trying a different scrub. The Smooch Operator Lip Butter Balm and The Butter Yourself are just products that I would really like to try! Let's hope someone buys me some S&G for my birthday!

 

3) Pixi Glow Tonic - I have recently heard skincare expert and blogger Caroline Hirons talk about this amazing product! It is completely hand made, hand packaged and contains only natural ingredients. It is oil free, alcohol free and very heavy in Aloe Vera, Ginseng and Witch Hazel. It works as a chemical exfoliant to clear away dead skin cells and also tones, firms and softens the skin. I have heard many good things about this product so I know I will purchase it in the near future, especially when my current toner runs out! Unfortunately, it is only available through mail order, by contacting 0207 287 7211 or emailing storemanager@pixibeauty.com

 

4) Revlon PhotoReady Primer & Shadow - I love getting new eye products all the time and this compact looks perfect! You get a primer, 3 shadows and a sparkle top coat. I love the idea that you can choose between whether you wear the shadows matte or shimmery! The colour selection that appeals to me is Metropolitan but the compact comes in 4 other colour selections. If the shadows are pigmented and easy to work with/blend then this compact will be great value for money!

 

5) Essie Summer Nail Polish Collection - There are 6 different colours in this collection, Full Steam Ahead, Rock The Boat, More The Merrier, Naughty Nautical, Girls Are Out & Sunday Funday. I would like all of the colours out of this collection but at £7.99 they are a bit expensive to buy them all in one go! IF I had to choose three shades to have then I would choose, Naughty Nautical which is a lovely turquoisy shade, Sunday Funday which is a gorgeous pinky red shade and More The Merrier which is a lime green type shade. I have a few Essie polishes and I love how they apply so they are great value for the price. All the colours in the collection are beautiful and I would class them all as being very wearable! They are perfect Summer colours and since I haven't bought a new nail polish in over 2 weeks I think I should purchase them some time soon!!

 

To check out the products, please click on the underlined product names!

 

There we go guys, my wishlist for this month. Hopefully with it being my Birthday very soon I will get some of these products and the ones I don't get I will definitely be purchasing soon!

 

Are any of these products on your wishlist? Have you tried any of these products already? Let me know your thoughts and comment below!

Soap & Glory Body Butter Review

Hi Guys,

 

Today I have two Soap & Glory products to talk about. First of all I have the Soap & Glory Righteous Body Butter 300ml and secondly I have the Soap & Glory Daily Smooth Body Butter 250ml.

 

I absolutely love all the Soap & Glory products and I especially love both of these body butters! I think they are great value for money and last for ages! And to make them even more appealing, Soap & Glory do not test on Animals!

 

 

 

The Righteous Body Butter contains Aloe Vera and Shea Butter to make your skin especially smooth and soft. The smell is absolutely AMAZING! I cannot describe what it smells of other than Bergamot ( The scent I would associate with Soap & Glory) I am addicted to anything that has Bergamot in it. Soap & Glory say that the scent contains aroma's of leafy greens, bergamot and mandarin, with a floral and fruity edge followed by soft, sexy, musk, oakmoss, amber and woody notes. The scent lingers for a very long time which is great! I love how this product applies to the skin and how little product you need. It rubs in so easily yet the formula is so thick, creamy and smooth to give you a perfect velvety finish. Soap & Glory compare it to wearing velvet! It advises on the back of the pot to use it on damp skin after showering but personally I use it any time of the day! I think they recommend to use it on damp skin because the formula is so thick. I particularly like using this product on my feet, elbows and knees as it seems to hydrate them instantly and the hydrated feeling lasts until you next shower! I tend to stick to using this on the dryer parts of my body and I use the Daily Smooth over the rest of my body. It can be used all over the body though, its just me being greedy again and wanting to use more than one product! You also get a massive 300ml of product! I have had this since Christmas and I am still yet to use the whole pot up! It retails for £10.50 which I think is exceptionally good value compared to other body butters on the market.

The Daily Smooth is one of my main staple products and something that I use on a daily basis. It contains the same scent as the 'Mist You Madly' body spray, another scent that I absolutely love! If you haven't smelt this before then I can only describe it as very floral and fragrant, once again it contains Bergamot. Maybe this is the reason I love all of the Soap & Glory products! I would also class the scent as very flirty! As I've mentioned before, Scent is one of the most important factors to me when I am buying beauty products! As stated above, the scent also lingers with this product! I don't think I have used a Soap & Glory product where the scent doesn't stick around for a very long time. This product is great at combating dry skin and leaving your whole body feeling hydrated, smooth and soft. It contains rosehip seed oil and cocoa butter so you know you are going to get great results! What is great about this product is that once you have massaged it all in to your body it doesn't leave a sticky wet residue behind so you can get dressed almost instantly and because you have to massage the product in to your skin, it gives you a great excuse to spend time massaging! Once again, you only need a tiny amount to moisturise your whole body as the formula is quite thick and creamy. This product is also great value, it retails for £9 and I have the current bottle for over 3 months now - using it everyday!

 

  

Top marks go to Soap & glory! Not just for these two products but for every product they have ever made! I have lots of products from them and they never fail to disappoint!

Another thing to note is that currently all the Soap & Glory range is on offer for 3 for 2 at Boots! To take a look at the current promotion, please click HERE.

 I know I will be going and buying more Soap & Glory soon! 

 

Let me know if you would like me to review more Soap & Glory products!
