L'Oreal Skin Perfection 3 in 1 Purifying Micellar Solution


I might be the last blogger on earth to talk about this, but I thought i'd share my thoughts. Micellar waters have been big news over the last wee while, but mostly only available from high end, or foreign brands. The release of an affordable, easily available one in the form of L'Oreal's Skin Perfection 3 in 1 Purifying Micellar solution had the blogging word in a frenzy! Always one to jump on a bandwagon, I had to see what the fuss is about. 

I am happy to report, I love it! I have never been a fan of using cream or foaming cleansers to remove make up, so this is ideal for me. I use a fairly small amount on a cotton pad, and sweep it all over the face to remove the days make up and grime. Even better, the solution is gentle enough to use on eyes. If you are a fan of the double cleanse, this is ideal for removing make up before going in for a deeper cleanse with another cleanser. I am pretty lazy though, and find that this removes my make up very well, and usually I just use this.


 As the bottle says, the solution is also soothing. If its a hot day and you are feeling a bit icky, this is a lovely perk up and is cooling. I haven't noticed an amazing difference in my pores, but that is probably because I chop and change between skin care all the time! The life of a beauty blogger and toiletry addict is a tough one.

This micellar solution is a bargain at £4.99, but you can get two for £6 in Superdrug at the moment.

Have you tried this Micellar Solution?

Vaseline Spray and Go body moisturiser


Now I'll be the first to admit that i'm pretty lazy when it comes to moisturising and the like. Buying products? Love it. Using them? Bit rubbish at it. My poor legs in particular get neglected and end up looking a little crocodile like which isn't attractive. So, when I saw that this new spray moisturiser  from vaseline was being released I thought it would be perfect for lazy old me. 

I got the cocoa radiant one, as I love the smell of cocoa butter. For those of you who are not such fans there are also Essential Moisture which has oat extract, and Aloe fresh, which has, ummm, aloe. The sprays are priced £4.99 and available at the usual haunts, Boots, Superdrug, etc. While this price isn't a bargain, if it something that you actually use then its worth. A moisturiser on the leg is worth two on the shelf and all that!

The spray works very well and gives a light, liquidy feeling covering to the skin which is then very easy to rub in. While it is not as luxurious as your traditional body butters, its a damn sight quicker. Great for a quick blast before you run out the door. 

Also, I love the nozzle, it clicks round to stop accidental spraying. I made a wee video to best demonstrate-


Overall its a bit of a faddy product, but very convenient and for that reason I love it!
