Body Shop tea tree range.

Apologies for the rubbish quality photo but I couldnt wait to blog about these products I love them! I haven't been in the Body Shop in ages but went to Cheshire oaks with my flatmates today, so we had a look in. I have been wanting a face scrub particularly one that targets blackheads so I picked this up straight away. It was 30% off if you bought 2 items so I went with the foaming face wash as they're my favourite kind of face wash and I figured the 2 products would work well together:) I will put the links below to the products on the body shop website! With regards to the prices the scrub was £5.50 and the face wash was £4.50 but I ended up getting both for £7.00 which I was happy with! I doubt i would have paid full price as there are much cheaper alternative available!

I love the face wash as it removes makeup really easily without irritating my skin, including a lot of eye makeup which is a must have for me with a face wash and I can't stand it when they sting my eyes, so i am impressed with this one so far! I also love the tea tree scent, it is quite a strong scent but a nice one! I'm loving the exfoliating scrub so far too, it contains 'crushed apricot stones' and it just feels really nice when rubbing into the skin, as well as the lovely tea tree scent. After using both products together my face felt amazing and baby soft, I followed this with my clinique mositurising gel which is still my staple product!

Skin care regime.

I decided to share my current skin care regime as my skin has been feeling great lately and I feel like I've finally found a good routine.
For the past couple of months I have been using a facewash I picked up from Morrisons it's just a cheap brand I think it was called 'so clear'. To be honest I was really impressed with it and would definitely buy it again, it was around £2.70 which is about average for a standard face wash I suppose! The past couple of days i have been using this Garnier fresh essentials cleansing gel wash. I really like the scent it's nice and refreshing, however i feel like it irritates my eyes quite a bit, and I usually like to use a face wash which will remove all my eye make up. I think with this face wash i will have to use a wipe or some other kind of makeup remover along side it. That is my only criticism, i think it works really well as a facewash to cleanse and leave skin feeling fresh, and i picked it up when it was on offer in Sainsburys so it only cost me around £1.70 which is good!


I have been using this Simple soothing facial toner for a while now and I really like it, it doesn't irritate my skin at all but it gives that nice tingly clean feeling and ensures that all traces of makeup are gone. This is one of the best toners I've tried. I've previously used Clinique clarifying lotion however I felt that really irritated my skin and sometimes felt like it was burning! I like the way this simple toner is very kind to skin and not too harsh! I will definitely be buying this again.

I've previously reviewed this here. I can't stress enough how much i love this moisturiser it's hands down the best product ever for me! I don't know how I ever lived without it, i use it 2 / 3 times a day now and it makes my skin feel amazing. I'd definitely recommend it! Pricey but worth every penny.

Anyway that's my current skin care regime and it seems to be working pretty well for me at the moment! I don't really tend to have 'problem' skin I rarely get spots so i'm quite lucky but my skin has been feeling smooth lately so I'm putting that down to my skincare! I also try to avoid wearing makeup wherever possible, as soon as I'm home i'll take it off I hate sitting about with a full face of makeup, my skin just feels greasy!
