We’ve been busy trying out a few luscious products recently, three in fact.
Here’s our reviews taking each one by one:
Dermalogica Sheer Moisture – £21.42
One of our favourite beauty brands, Dermalogica have got it ALL right in our minds. This is a very light, SPF15, oil free moisturiser that is a dream to use. It leaves your sin feeling truly ‘moistured’ and with not a trace of grease!
This stuff may be quite expensive, but you really don’t need much of it. Use it before you head out to work in the morning applying to a freshly cleansed face. We found that the moisture was certainly still there even at around 5pm, and the knowledge that this product actually protects your skin just makes you feel like every penny was worth it.

We recently called in a load of beauty products to trial and review on our blog and were pleasantly surprised when we received a set of Celtic Herbal bits.
Made all the way up in the peaks of Snowdonia in Wales, these products are made from essential oils, herbs and natural vegetable oils and smell absolutely delightful.
We were sent the Lavender shower wash, Peppermint and Rosemary revitalising shampoo and intensive Peppermint and Rosemary conditioner and it seemed rude not to give the three a whirl and share our experience.
Firstly, all three products smell divine and refreshing… there’s no sulphates or parabens in these products, just real ingredients which make you feel and smell… well gorgeous.
The products are very reasonable, not the cheapest but certainly not the most expensive out there.
If you fancy feeling revitalised every morning then this is certainly a brand to take on board.

Who said that festivals were for mud drenched hippies? If you are a festi goer you may well have heard of the Vanity Van; a team of beauticians and masseuses who join the festival circuit up and down the UK with their mobile beauty parlour.

One of my favourite products at the moment from the Nougat Indulgent Body Collection is the Shea Butter Body Silk, it literally feels like silk gliding onto the body, the smell is beautiful and combines a mixture of finest ingredients including Tuberose and Jasmine. I absolutely love using this product everyday on my skin and I was so looking forward to enjoying my hot stones therapy massage.

A family friend had recommended that I pop along and see Marie-Claire in her beauty studio at The Retreat in Passfield, after all I’d heard nothing but positive feedback and seen the results for myself.
It was my 30th birthday a few weeks ago and I thought of nothing better than being pampered before my BIG birthday – lets face it we all know everything heads down south from here on in, doesn’t it? I was willing to make a valid investment. It certainly appealed to pay Marie-Claire a visit rather than make a trip into the city as I wasn’t in the mood for getting stuck in traffic and driving round aimlessly trying to find somewhere to park – fear of turning up more stressed than I had already been feeling was not on my agenda.
