Mini Body Shop Haul

Hey Girlies ♥,
 
I ordered these goodies just over a week ago when they were having their 50% off sale, it arrived just before the weekend so I thought I'd show you my mini Body Shop haul! x
 
 

Almond Nail & Cuticle Oil Pen
 
This smells like cherry bake wells! I love the smell and I like how convenient it is to use, my cuticles are looking tidy with none of them little pealy bits so it must be doing a good job so far :)


Macadamia Straightening Balm
 
No, I do not need any more hair products but I can't help myself! I thought this would smell like the Macadamia hair oil  which I really love but it doesn't unfortunately, it's still pleasant enough though. I actually really like this so far. It's a straightening balm for curly/wavy hair but I found it gave my hair some extra volume which was nice. I've also used it before curling my hair and it worked great too. It is quite thick so I wouldn't really recommend if your hair is quite fine.
 
Vitamin E Night Cream
 
I've wanted to try this for a while, it was recommended to me through twitter for my sensitive skin. This cost around £2 which I'm happy with and I like it so far! It does have a strong floral scent (which I actually love) but luckily it seems fine for when my skin isn't having a hissy fit!



Wise Woman Eye Cream
 
This was originally £20 but down to £12 on an offer, then i got 50% off on top of that so I had to add it to my basket. It's the most expensive eye cream I have ever tried if you don't include the discounts :). It's meant to hydrate, smooth and soften fine lines. Its ok, I haven't noticed any difference as of yet but I haven't been using it that long! It works well under concealer and it hasn't caused any bad reactions so I'm happy :) 
 
Hope you enjoyed this post! Have you brought anything this weekend?

Macadamia Hair Oil Review ♥



Macadamia Oil on Left & Tresemme Argan oil on Right


I have posted a few bad-ish reviews recently so i thought i would actually blog about something i actually love so this is what i picked up out of my goody drawer.
This is my 3rd bottle of this stuff and it smells amazing, even my boyfriend loves the smell.
It's quite a thick oil really, which i do love but i tend to put it on after i have styled my hair as i find that it can take a while to dry if i apply it before and I'm not the most patient of people :)
I also use this as an overnight mask, i slather it on before bed and tie my hair up in a bun - this works wonders for my hair and really smooths it out and hides my split ends nicely once it's washed out.
Another great thing about this is if i have my hair wavey the next day it can get a bit tangled up and this helps to detangle my beehive of a barnet the next morning!
Its quite pricey at around £20 for a 100ml pump bottle and I'd say it lasts around 3 months for me which isn't bad seeing how much i use it -maybe 3 times a week at night and as a serum after styling every other day.
I really recommend this, it's definitely one of my favourite hair care products along with the L'oreal hair mask i always mention. You can get the spray version too which isn't as heavy - this may be better if you don't want a really heavy oil.


What your favourite hair product?
