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

Snowy Scenes

Hi guys, 

So I am very sorry that I have been missing from the blogging scene for nearly a week! I have been trying to sort things out in my personal life but I have been planning some posts for you guys.

Today I have a bit of a strange post for you but if you live in the UK or have heard anything about the UK recently you will know that over the last week we have had a lot of snow and I have a bit of a think about snow :) *hehe yes I'm a bit of a child* so last Friday I decided because I had nothing to do I would walk around my pretty little Cheshire town, which looks even prettier covered in a blanket of the white snowy stuff and show you some pictures of it so here we go

Battle Of The Caramel Hot Chocolates

Hi guys, so this is pretty much going to be a random post for me! If you know me in person you will know that I absolutely love Caramel Hot Chocolates, especially those from Costa! Anyway I obviously can not afford to go and have one of those every time I want a hot drink, so I have been testing out instant caramel flavoured ones at home.

I tested 3 different ones

Cadbury Highlights Caramel

Options Dreamy Caramel

Weight Watchers Caramel

Nutritional Information: Per Serving: 40 calories, 1.2g protein, 5.5 g Carbohydrates, Sugars 3.7 g, Fat 1.1g, Saturates 0.9g Fibre 1.7g, Salt 0.3g

So I have tried each one and will just say that they are all really nice. I make mine with milk instead of water because I think that they taste nicer and I don’t have that much dairy in my diet so it always helps to get a bit extra in. No they are not as nice as the ones that you buy from say Costa but for an instant hot chocolate they are delicious. I find also that I do not need to add any more sugar to them when they are the caramel flavour ones as opposed to the normal chocolate ones.

Anyway my verdict – my favourite was definitely the Options one. It was lovely and creamy when made with milk and tasted the closest to the ones that you get from Costa. Wasn’t too sweet and mixed well into the milk and didn’t end up tasting powdery (which is my biggest bug bear with instant hot chocolate) the only downside to this one is that as far as I can find you can only buy it in the individual sachets and not in a big tub, which makes it a lot more expensive.

My least favourite was the weight watchers one, I just didn’t think that it really tasted of much and tasted very fake and powdery and out of 3 I tried it just didn’t match up, you can get this one in a big tub as well as sachets but I just don’t think that I could be buying it again.

The Highlights isn’t far off the Options one to be honest it is just a bit too sweet for me. That is really the only big swinging point for me. Depending on how much of a sweet tooth you have you may prefer one to the other. But I would recommend them both :) the Highlights one you can also buy in a big jar as well as the sachets.

Anyway guys I know that this was random but I hope that you liked it.

If you have hot chocolate at home, what is your favourite?

Lots of Love
