No7 Beautiful Skin Cleansing Brush Review

Hi guys,

I hope that you are all okay, so I have wanted to try out a Clarisonic ever since I have been watching beauty videos and reading beauty blogs. However It is such a large expense that I wasn’t sure whether I could afford, so I have been thinking about it for such a long time, until I saw the No7 Cleansing Brush that they have bought out.

I bought mine for £15, which for me was a good price to try it out. I think the RRP is going to be £25 which is still nearly £100 less than the Clarisonic. It says on the box “supercharge your cleanser for skin that feels twice as clean”. Well I can definitely say that it makes my skin feel very very clean. I do use It after an initial cleanse when I have makeup on but just on its own when I don’t. I feel like it has helped to get rid of dry patches on my skin that I have had over the winter months. I do think that my skin is purging slightly with it as I have had a few break outs, whether this is the Cleansing Brush or hormones I am not too sure.

The brush itself is very lightweight and it powered by 2 AA batteries. The brush head itself is very soft and has 2 different speeds to which it rotates. They are not selling replacement heads yet but according to the No7 consultant I spoke to she said that they will be coming out in about March time priced at £8 for a 2 pack. Which again to me I don’t think is expensive at all. 

I am very glad that I purchased this and I will do an updated post once I have been using it for a while and let you know how I have been getting on with it.

Have any of you tried this out?

Lots of Love 

Book Rave: Tales of a Gypsy Dressmaker

Hello everyone!

I hope that you are all okay, I have been away for the last 5 days at a festival, I shall do another post about it all shortly. However this is a very random post as you have probably guessed by the title.  I am a little bit of a book worm and I absolutely love finding new books to read and that kind of thing. So I was in ASDA with my Mum & Step-Dad the day before we were going away and I realised that I didn’t have a book to take with me so I went to see if they had anything interesting that I could take.

I spent absolutely ages looking at all of the books trying to decide what I wanted as there were so many that I was really interested in. I ended up choosing Tales of a Gypsy Dressmaker by Thelma Madine.

I had wanted to read this book ever since it came out as I am a massive fan of My Big Fat Gypsy Weddings. I think that it was around £3.50 in ASDA in paperback, which I though was an absolute bargain. They had a lot of paperback books in there for that price so I will be definitely going back to get some more shortly.

Anyway, I read the entire thing by Friday evening. I started it on Wednesday evening. That for me is quite quick to get through a whole book.  It may not be for some people but for me it is. I think that it did help that it was lovely and sunny and I was sat in a field listening to good music drinking cider :)  *hehe* I just couldn’t put the book down at all! I got so into it and really enjoyed it.

The book is basically an autobiography of her life. It says on the front “from hitting rock bottom to making girls dreams come true” and this is basically how I would describe it. She is so amazingly open and honest about everything that has happened in her life and I won’t spoil anything for anyone who hasn’t read it and wants to but I would 100% recommend this book to anyone who is a Big Fat Gypsy Weddings fan or even an autobiography fan. I really enjoy reading autobiographies; they are right up my street so it was a great selling point for me.

Anyway I know that this has been a very random post, and I shall be blogging a lot more soon as I am not going away anymore this year now.

Have any of you read this book? What did you think? Would you like to read it?

Lots Of Love
