Superdrug haul:

I'm back already, I have a Superdrug haul this time. Lets get straight into it!


As I was taking the picture the little white tub rolled, but its just the Superdrug coconut oil. I have used this before and loved it. I ran out a while ago. I use this on my hair mainly as an overnight treatment. I have a problem with hair fallout and slow hair growth. This helps a lot in my personal experience. It may not work for others, but it did for me. It stops my hair falling out as much and I noticed my hair grew a little quicker when I worked this into my roots (massaging the area) around two-three times a week. It can be messy, and take a while to wash out but I think its worth it. I absolutely love it. I will never go back. Link here: Superdrug coconut oil



I've used the Batiste dry shampoo XXL volume in the past (when I was blonde) so thought I'd try it out with darker hair, and it definitely did give me an oomph in the past along with livening the hair up in between washes. Link here: XXL dry shampoo

Blend perfection foundation sponge by cosmopolitan-I've used a few cheapish versions of these sponges before, and saw this one on offer and thought I'd give it a go. It wasn't too expensive anyway, but the offer price really attracted me to it. Link here: Cosmopolitan blend perfection sponge

I've been obsessed with skincare for a while now, even more so in the past year or two. I've been wanting to try a face oil for some time, and I saw this one by Superdrug's B. range. This is a little bit pricey, but it was on offer so I had to have it. Although this product is stated for people in their 30's and 40's I saw no reason why I couldn't give it a whirl. This one is the B.replenished antioxidant boost which includes vitamin E and C, Rosehip oil, Argan oil, and Crambe seed oil. I think I am going to enjoy this tremendously as I've applied it once before going to sleep and I noticed my skin looked a little bit brighter. Hopefully this will bring good results.

I also purchased the Manuka Doctor age defying eye cream. This has Manuka honey and purified bee venom. I am looking forward to trying this out. Link here: Manuka Doctor eye cream



Last but not least I thought I would include a lip balm from Primark. Its £1 and I got it in pineapple flavour. I was pleasantly surprised after one application, I struggle with dry lips most of the time no matter what I do. I applied this once and about an hour or so later I noticed my lips were a lot less dry after it wore off.  Amazing for a really for a cheap lip balm.

That's all for now, have you tried any of these products? did you have good experiences? see you all soon,

Olay nature fusion night cream review:

Next up I have a review on the nature fusion anti-wrinkle cream by Olay. This one is from the nature fusion line. As I stated in a previous blog I have used the day lotion for a while and really liked it, so I thought I'd purchase the night cream to add to my skincare.





About the product:
  • its a night cream
  • anti-wrinkle
  • recommended for women aged 25+
  • it has natural extracts added to the formula such as grape seed extracts, ginseng, and sea buckthorn
  • it helps protect against against the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles 
  • it gives your skin moisture all night long
  • the formula is easily absorbed into the skin without clogging pores
  • non-greasy
  • suggests that by using this regularly you will develop  more radiant younger looking skin  

My thoughts on the product:
  • it has a lovely refreshing and cooling feeling on the skin, feels lovely when you apply it
  • its quite thick and creamy but that's fine as it has all night to soak in
  • my skin feels very moisturised and smooth when I wake up, slightly more shiny than usual (nothing major), but once my makeup is on its not noticeable 
  • I've always had a problem with creams breaking me out in the past, but this hasn't, I've had no breakouts from using this
  • Smells nice, but if you don't like scented products then you may not like this
  • my skin hasn't reacted badly to this at all
  • I love the fact it has natural elements to it, which is always a bonus
  • I haven't noticed any improvement wrinkle wise, as I don't have any issues with that just yet + I've only been using it for 5 days or so.
  • my skin does actually look a bit more glowy than usual in a short space of time

I really like this face cream. I've never specifically had a night cream like this before so I thought I would add it into my regime. I will definitely continue to purchase this. Its on offer at the moment on the Superdrug website (where I purchased this), so it was a bargain! I'd rate this a 9/10! 

See you soon with more reviews + much more!

L'Oreal skin perfection Micellar solution- review:

Well hello there, I have a little review for you.

A few days ago I received my Superdrug order. Below is a snap of what I'm reviewing today:


I'd never tried this before, but it always caught my eye. I'm so glad that I finally got round to buying it.

About the product (stated on the bottle):

  1. Dissolves makeup
  2. Unclogs pores and removes impurities
  3. Tones and soothes skin
  4. Its used by makeup artists
  5. Draws out excess oil in the skin and impurities
  6. There's no perfume, no alcohol, and its hypo-allergenic
  7. Its suitable for sensitive skin
  8. You don't need to rinse the product off
  9. And that its tested under dermatological and ophthalmological control (whew that was a big word lol) 

 Here are my thoughts on the product:

  • I think its reasonably priced and I got it on offer which was even better!
  • Its gentle on the skin, even on the eyes
  • Removes makeup really well, without any rough rubbing or tugging (we don't need that!)
  • I even tried it on my clean skin, as I hadn't wore makeup that day. I wiped it over my skin with a cotton pad and you can see what comes off your face from just general day to day grime. It literally removes impurities from the skin. 
  • When you sweep this over the skin it has a nice tingly, cooling refreshing feel, it feels so nice!
  • On the bottle it states that it can be used on the face, eyes and lips, so its a multitasking, multi-function product, no need for separate removers for different parts of the face. 
  • I feel like my skin is squeaky clean after using it, which is great! Some makeup removers don't feel like they get deep enough to really remove everything from the skin. I hate the feeling that your face isn't truly clear of makeup. 
  • I moisturise after using this as my skin feels slightly dry afterwards. I moisturise anyway after removing makeup. 
  • I love this, I will definitely repurchase, can see this being my new staple! 10/10
These are just my thoughts about this little gem, let me know your thoughts in the comments. I would love to know your views.

Thank you for popping over to my blog.

See you all again soon with another review,
