Tea Tree Witch Hazel Facial Wash Review | 2017

Hola, everyone!

I have found a new love for writing reviews. Although, I somehow manage to venture onto a new wavelength and totally go off topic. But yeah, I came across this Tea Tree Witch Hazel product through the one and only, Niomi Smart as she partnered with Boots. I saw her talking about it and I thought it looked good so when I was in boots last month, I picked one up. Without realising until I got home... which was a happy moment. Ever since I have been absolutely OBSESSED!

Tea Tree Witch Hazel with Active Charcoal - Daily Detox Facial Wash -

£4.55

When it comes to any form of facial wash, body scrub or moisturiser I really do struggle to find one that is compatible with my skin. As mentioned in several previous posts, I suffer from dry skin and when it's dry it gets irritable which really isn't good. Tea Tree Witch Hazel has actually cared for my skin better than expected. If anything it nursed my skin completely back to health and has never felt so soft. I managed to persuade the boyfriend to try it and even he was amazed, no joke. 

What I like most about this product is the active charcoal which gently cleanses and attracts dirt like a 'magnet' as described on the casing. It draws out deep down impurities and excess oil without over-drying the skin or sending it to completely break out. 

Step one - Wet hands and face with warm-ish water and apply the product in your hand, preferably your fingertips as it gets really messy. Leave on for about 3-5minutes as it's giving the charcoal chance to work its magic. 

Step two - After 3-5minutes has passed, wash off gently with a flannel or your hands, whichever is more doable. I'd recommend the flannel though. Dry your face with a clean towel making sure any excess product comes off. 

Step three - Apply any type of moisturiser to your face and let it sink in for about 5 minutes. Leaving it on all morning until your regular make-up routine(s) etc. 

Step four - See the results. I mean, from this photo alone you can see how clear my skin looks just from a 10 minute morning cleanse. 

I'd recommend using this product 2-3 times a week as it does your skin wonders and gets rid of blackheads and stop spots from forming also. Obviously it will have a different effect on different skin types but still, try it if you're looking for something new to add to your skin care routine. :)

What was in my December 2016 Birchbox?

Aloha, Everyone!

I understand this post is super late, but work got in the way and I have been spending as much time with my family as I could over the December period.. better late than never, right? :) I have thoroughly enjoyed receiving my birchbox subscription but I won't be receiving another one, by choice until February now, just to save up some money for other bills that I'm currently a tad behind on... whoops! I'll link everything pictured below at the bottom of the post also if you wanna check it out!

So if you have followed my posts from last year (love saying that) you'll notice a few birchbox ones. They have become quite popular on my page so I thought although we are on the 11th day of January, I will still introduce the December box as I loved it so freaking much! I haven't yet tried the 'Fierce Flicks' eyeliner yet, so bare with me... it will make an appearance in future blog posts, promise! 

I don't normally do my nails so this was a total surprise. I have worn it once over Christmas and I'll be honest, it lasted so long! kept my nails in a good condition afterward too. I'm not one for pink but this 'Just Perfect' shade by Leighton Denny looked amazing! I just wish I had taken a photo, but probably wouldn't have done it any justice what so ever. It's nice for a little gift for someone, or to wear with every day/night time clothing, goes with most outfits!

Everybody raves about benefit and their products, so seeing this little Dew the Hoola in my box got me all excited and tingly. I'm not even joking. I still haven't used it yet, as I don't really know how to and I haven't been wearing make-up recently as my skin has been super dry due to the weather conditions, but I will no doubt include this in a favourites when I do try it out!

If you suffer from blotchy, dry skin and can't get rid of those icky pores with whatever facial scrub you use, then try Amie - Deep Pore Exfoliating Polish. IT IS AMAZING. I'm not just saying it. I have had really icky skin recently and using this made it more clear, less clogged up with dirt and cleared my pores. Use twice weekly alongside any other facial scrub and you'll notice a massive difference. Also, you'll have super soft skin afterward, no joke!

Hair products are essential for me and I was a bit apprehensive trying this Percy and Reed Perfectly Perfecting Wonder Balm. The scent of it is a bit too strong for me, but it leaves your hair feeling so much freer. I've only used it twice as I'm still raving about a hair product from November's box ha, so this one hasn't really been out recently, but it's good to keep your hair smooth and looking fab before and after styling!
