Sundays are by far my favourite day of the week. I try to keep them as leisurely as possible & today was no exception. Aslan and I went to a car boot sale this morning for a few hours and the rest of the day has been spent catching up on housework and watching Citizen Kane for one of my uni assignments. Now it's bath time!
A couple of weeks ago I took a bath featuring this oil and then slathered myself in it afterwards. I pretty much went straight to bed after that and no joke-I had the best sleep of my life! I'm not convinced that is solely due to this body oil, but I haven't stopped using it since! I'm a massive fan of bath and body oils-especially ones that sink in quickly. This (rather luxurious) one might very well be creeping its way up the ranks for a top spot in my shower. This oil hardens at room temperature, but once you get it warm (I just dunk it in the bath water) it's good to go! Note-this one is highly fragranced so you might want to make sure you like the scent before investing (I personally really like the floral scent).
Here's a hyped up blogger product for you! This is a bit of a different concept as it's a pre-shampoo treatment for your hair. I've been applying it for about 20 minutes before I get in the shower and then shampooing/conditioning as normal. Although the ingredients in this product aren't anything amazing (in fact it's full of parabens and castor oil) I really like the way this makes my hair feel. It kind of gives it a bit of a refreshment and has been making it easier to style. Not sure if this is a holy grail item, but it's definitely something I'm enjoying!
Embryolisse Hydra-Masque:
This is one of those hydrating face masks I always seem to come back to. Tried, tested & true. It's not too heavy in texture and after leaving it on for about 15 minutes my skin looks more nourished and less thirsty! I got mine in France for a very good price, but it's available here for £21.
Another product that I just keep going back to! This is an extremely rich moisturiser that is ideal for dry skin. I will ONLY use this at night time and certainly not everyday, but it really does the trick if your skin is dry. Nice little treatment for dry skinned faces or even elbows etc.
For nails I decided to go with something a bit bright-Marmalade by Revlon. This is one of the new nail varnishes I featured in my recent Drugstore Makeup Haul video. Can't wait to see how this one looks!
If you feel like your skin is lacking moisture what products do you use?
How did you spend your Sunday?
