Clinique Deep Comfort Body Moisture

Clinique deep comfort body moisture - £18
This is the newest addition to my ever growing collection of moisturisers (I definitely have an addiction!). I generally really like Clinique products that I have previously tried, and this seemed like it would be super moisturising for dry skin. Clinique deep comfort body moisture is described on the website as 'an intensely rich and creamy body moisturiser that provides even the driest skin with relief and moisturisation'. I definitely think it lives up to this claim, it provides my skin with instant relief and my skin feels softer and just generally in better condition after using it. The moisturiser has a slight scent, I wouldn't describe it as unpleasant but it isn't neccesarily a nice smell either!

However, i think it is overpriced at £18 -  I got it at half this price thanks to my friend who works in duty free at the airport (this comes in very handy for the likes of me who is obsessed with trying new products). I definitely wouldn't ever pay full price for this as I feel there are much cheaper alternatives that are pretty much just as good, and although I do like Clinique products i feel that they are all way overpriced! Does anyone else think this?

Time for an update!

I apologise for how lazy I've been with my blogging recently! Time to change that :) new blog name to match my instagram name, and I've switched the layout around a bit, but I'm gonna continue playing around with it some more as I'm not really happy with it at the moment! I really wish I was better with html and stuff so I could make my blog look prettier, if anyone has any tips / ideas or wants to help me out please holla at me! xxxx

 I'm going to try my best to blog more regularly, including more photos! I've got lots of products and stuff I want to talk about as it's been agessss! Thanks to everyone who has stayed following me! :)

Glossybox.



This month, I decided to sign up to Glossybox. I had been contemplating signing up for a while now after hearing about glossybox through other people's blogs / twitter etc! I'm so happy i decided to, as i absolutely love my first box! I'm sure I won't always be quite as happy with what I recieve in my boxes but this month has definitely pleased me. I was really happy to receive a 'Lipcote' as I have wanted to try this product for years! Also, i absolutely adore the 'nail brightener' it stops my nails from looking dull / yellow and just makes them look so much brighter and healthier! I think Glossybox is a good way of trying out new products, and despite the argument that I have more than enough beauty products and I don't really need the majority of the things I will receive, I think its definitely worth the £10 per box. The only product in the box I wasn't particularly enthralled about it the eye shadow, I can't really see myself using it as I already have a palette I use daily, and none of these colours appeal to me that much anyway.
