February Favourites


Garnier Fructis Surf Hair

ASDA - £1.50 150ml
After using Bumble and bumble.’s Surf Spray, I wished to find more products which would have a beachy effect on my hair. Reviews of the B&b. Surf Spray are rather negative online and I often see reviewers directing people to this product  – Garnier Fructis Surf Hair. I came across this product in ASDA for £1.50 for a 150ml tub, which is a complete improvement on the £8.50 price tag of a 50ml bottle of B&b. Surf Spray.
The product has the typical fruity aroma which is associated with the Garnier Fructis range, which I love. The texture is a “Matte Gum” and all you have to do is scoop a little bit out of the tub and warm it up into your hands and then work it into your hair; bending, twirling and scrunching it until you reach your desirable style of beachy waves.
In comparison to the Surf Spray, it is apparent that this product is much better to use on your hair in terms of not drying it out.
 
MUA Lipstick
Superdrug – Shade 15 Juicy - £1!
I know MUA has had a LOT of negative press lately due to their public representation on websites such as Facebook, but for me, it doesn’t take away from the fact that their products are amazing for the price you pay and I will never boycott using/buying them.
These lipsticks retail at £1 (no typo!) and are amazing. Like some others brands, they do not dry my lips out and I find them very conditioning. At the moment I own six and I’ll definitely be buying more.
From the collection, I adore this peachy/pink shade the most as I find if you pat it onto the lips and then work the colour across it looks so pretty.
 
Moringa Body Mist
The Body Shop - 100ml - £7.50
When I walked into The Body Shop I was literally like a cat smelling chicken. I could smell this really sweet florally aroma and wondered where the hell it was coming from and then my nose led me to the Moringa collection.
The classy glass packaging made me think this product was a room spray at first but as soon as I realised it was a body mist, straight in the basket it went. I find this scent really grown up from the days of Charlie sprays which used to dominate mine and my friend’s schoolbags. Love it!
 
Botanical Essence No.15
Liz Earle – 50ml - £47
Ever since I received my Cleanse and Polish and got a sample size of this perfume within the parcel, I knew at some point I was going to purchase it. I’m super fussy with perfumes and knowing a scent is perfect for me doesn’t happen very often so I didn’t mind allowing myself to spent a little bit more on this beauty.
I find it really hard to describe scents so all I’m going to say is if you’re next to a Liz Earle counter and haven’t had a whiff of this already, make sure you go and do it!  


Vitamin C Energising Face Spritz
The Body Shop – 100ml – £9

I have wanted to purchase a facial spritz for a while and when I asked the assistant in TBS what she would recommended for an instant pick me up she showed me this product. This product smells rather zesty which makes it very refreshing.  I can imagine this spritz being a real saviour on holidays/ in summer to instantly revive and cool your skin after being in the heat all day.  Sometimes I apply this product in the morning as I find it helps wake me up.

Purity 3-in-1 Cleanser
Philosophy – 90ml - £9 (from Christmas collection, purchase for £4.50 in the sale)

I was introduced to this product through the Latest in Beauty advent calendar, and I am SO happy I was. I think the main thing I love about this product is how simple it is. No fancy scents/packaging/gimmicks; it just purely does its job and does it well.

After using this product my face feels so clean and refreshed and it manages to take every last scrap of make-up off with ease, including all eye-makeup without irritating my eyes at all.

Thank you for reading!
