Product: T-Zone Blackhead Fighting Facial Scrub with Tea Tree
Purpose: Deeply cleanses to clear pores and blackheads
Size: 75ml
Where product was purchased: Savers
How much the product cost: £1.99
Product review: I don't usually like using facial scrubs because every one I have used before has never done anything to my face and I hated the feeling of it all. However, my face was breaking out with blackheads like crazy and I needed to urgently do something about it.
When I was looking in the shop, the first thing that led me to buy this product was the fact that it claims to use natural anti-bacterial ingredients.
I started using the product straight away. The only negative thing I have to say about this product is that the scent is quite unpleasant. But it is really worth it, this is my 5th month since I started using it and I have noticed a huge change. My skin has looked a lot healthier and much clearer since the day I started using it. I saw small changes straight away when I started using it, but the changes are really obvious in the long-run.
It's cheap and for me is the only product that has worked for me so far. I would really recommend you try this if your face is breaking out with blackheads like mine was.

Pretty In Pink Eau De Parfum by Nuparfums
Product: Pretty in Pink Perfume (Eau de Parfum by Nuparfums)
Scent: Fresh and floral
Size: 100ml
Where product was purchased: Tesco
How much the product cost: £10.00
Product review: This perfume has such a perfect scent. The scent is floral and fresh, meaning that it is a little strong but not strong enough to make you feel sick if you put too much on.
This perfume stays on the skin and clothing for most of the day, which is great for someone who is always on the move.

NIVEA | Light Moisturising Day Cream for Normal & Combination Skin
Product: NIVEA Light Moisturising Day Cream
Purpose: Moisturises & protects for a fresh skin feeling. With Vitamin E & Hydra IQ
Type: Normal & Combination Skin
Size: 50ml
Where product was purchased: Superdrug
How much the product cost: £3.99
Product review: This product has been a huge help for my skin in the past 2 and a half months. I have opted out of using as many heavy duty moisturisers like I used to, as my skin felt like it needed a little bit of a rest. We all know that if you use heavy duty make up and skin products often, you eventually need a break in order to keep your skin and body healthy, The best way to do that is by replacing products included in your daily skin care routine with Nivea products.
My skin has been so much softer since I started using this cream as part of my daily skin routine. I apply it in the morning with all my other products and then again by itself before bed. I have found that my make up looks a lot more natural when I apply this cream to my face before applying my make up. My skin also now has that super healthy look to it, with or without make up, which is absolutely great.
I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. Even if you don't really have time to have a daily skin care routine, just applying this product to your face before bed makes such a difference.

TALIKA | Photo Hydra- Day
Product: TALIKA Photo Hydra-Day
Purpose: Face Specific Hydration
Size: 30ml
Where product was bought: Talika,com
How much the product cost: £30
Product review: This product is probably the best thing I have ever put on my face.
Lately, my face has turned into a combination of oily and dry skin. I have applied this product to my whole face many times in the past few months and I love the way it leaves my skin. It evens my skin out perfectly. The dry parts of my skin don't look or feel dry at all, even after applying heavy duty foundation.
I also love the fact that whenever I have applied this product, my face always has that healthy looking glow to it, with and without the application of make up.
Even though this product is a little pushy on the price, I can easily say that it is totally worth every penny. You don't have to apply a lot of it each time, which makes it last quite a long time.

W7 Butter Kiss Lipstick | Very Berry
Product: W7 Butter Kiss Lipstick
Color: Very Berry
Where product was purchased: W7 Cosmetics
How much did the product cost: £4.50
Product review: The name matches the lipstick perfectly. This lipstick literally applies on to the lips like butter. It is super soft and leaves the lips silky smooth.
The color is extremely vibrant and shiny. I prefer my lipstick to be matte but you can do this by simply applying translucent powder to your lips after applying the lipstick, so it isn't a huge problem.
The only negative side I can see to this lipstick is that due to the fact it feels so similar to butter, it comes off the lips very easily and only leaves a very slight stain. I would definitely advice you to set your lipstick when using this lipstick for a night out or party/event where you may not get the chance to "touch up" as often.

Product review: Not only is the presentation of the product super cute and classy, the actually product is so good on the skin. Whenever I have used this product, I find that the dry parts of my skin literally just disappear.
My skin is a mixture of oily and dry so this product really evens my skin out completely. Not to mention my skin still smells amazing and fresh even hours after application.

Miss Sporty - Pump Up Booster Mascara
Product: Miss Sporty - Pump Up Booster Mascara
Color: Black
Where product was bought: Superdrug
How much did the product cost: £3.99
Product review: This mascara has to be the mascara I use on a daily basis.
I love how this mascara makes my lashes look so much longer and curled. This is great because I hate using lash curlers so this mascara does the trick perfectly.
The only thing I don't like about this mascara is that the brush is quite wide and large, which means I always end up getting some on my eyelid and am also unable to successfully apply this to my lower lashes.
But on a plus note, this mascara does not cause little clamps to form on to the lashes. I love this because I find it rather difficult to find a good mascara that doesn't.

Superdrug Extracts Shampoo - For Colored Hair
Product: Superdrug Extracts Shampoo
Scent: Raspberry & Macadamia Nut
Purpose: For colored hair (for radiant-looking hair)
Measurement: 400ml
Where product was bought: Superdrug
How much did the product cost: £2.29 each (or 2 for £3.00)
Product review: This shampoo smells absolutely amazing. You can really smell the raspberry.
One of the factors that led me to buy this product was the fact that the bottle is actually see-through and you can see how much product the bottle contains. I bought a few of these at the same time and they were all full to the top. I love this because I often notice when I buy branded shampoos, they are rarely full to the top.
Another thing that I love about this shampoo is that a little goes a very long way. You don't need to apply much to get loads of bubbles and for it to spread throughout your whole head.
This shampoo leaves the hair smelling absolutely amazing for ages.
This product is also suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Superdrug is 100% against animal testing.

GARNIER BB Cream in Light
Type: Original Miracle Perfector
Shade: Light
Measurement: 50ml
Where was the product bought: Savers
How much did the product cost: £5.99
Product review: I absolutely love this product. It is super creamy and so light on the skin.
I have been using this product for the past 2 months instead of using my usual full coverage foundation. I can't say this product is full coverage because it really isn't, but I find that it really hydrates my skin well.
When you squeeze the product out of the bottle, it definitely looks much darker than what it is meant to be. Good news is that once you apply it to the face and spread it evenly, the color looks like what it is meant to look.
I also prefer to apply this product to my face using my fingers instead of a make brush or beauty blender because it looks a lot more natural that way.
In conclusion, I would definitely recommend this product to anyone wanting to lay off the full coverage foundations for a while. This product makes the skin look great and natural, which is a huge plus side.

Cherry Bath Chill Pills | www.aromaworldstore.com
Scent: Cherry
Where product was bought: www.aromaworldstore.com
How much did the product cost: £1.25 for a pack of 5.
Product Review: These cherry bath chill pills are basically mini bath bombs. The chill pills changed the color of the water a lot quicker than I expected, the color was also extremely vibrant for a long time.
I added two to the water and they dissolved extremely fast, which was great because I hate having to wait ages for the bath bomb to dissolve. I was also rather pleased with the fact that when I drained the water, there were no left over bits of bath bomb in my bath tub.
The scent was strong but refreshing, which gave me the impression that using one of these per bath would be enough to get the same color change and scent.
Also, a huge plus side of these bath chill pills is that they are all made with natural ingredients so if you have skin conditions such as eczema, these will probably help your skin.
In conclusion, I was extremely pleased with this product. Not only is it extremely cheap and you get five in a pack, you can make the most of these for longer because you don't have to use them all in one go. They are a lot more satisfying than the normal odd bath bomb that you purchase and then throw in the bath and that's it and you don't have anymore left. If you use one chill pill per bath, these will last you up to five baths.
In order to show you guys what the product looks like and how fast it reacts, I have added a video to this review, where I added two of these chill pills into a bucket with warm water.
