Garnier Simply Essentials 2 in 1 makeup remover

I wrote about this item in my latest blog but thought it deserved better than a quick mention.

Detailed product description:
  Is Garnier Simply Essentials 2 in 1 Make-up remover right for me?
Yes, if your skin feels fragile when cleansing. Yes, if changes in temperature, fatigue and stress leave your skin more sensitive. Yes, if you have sensitive skin and are looking for effective make-up removal.
How does it work?
Garnier Simply Essentials 2 in 1 Make-up remover contains plant extract and Pro-vitamin B5 in a 2 in 1 formula which combines the efficacy of a make-up removing oil (the blue liquid) with the freshness of a cleansing water (the clear liquid) in a single express wipe.
Result
Your skin is perfectly cleansed with no residue. Even waterproof make-up is removed. Skin is left feeling soft and supple.



I use this makeup remover everyday however I only use this to remove my eye makeup,mainly as i have a shed load of other cleansers to get through. Unlike a lot of other eye makeup remover i have tried this one does not make my eyes sting or burn thank the lord!. After shaking the bottle to mix the two liquids i soak a cotton pad with the mixture and hold against my closed eye for a few seconds and then gently sweep it across my eyelid and lashes.It removes all traces of makeup within a few seconds while also leaving my lashes and the area around my eyes feeling nourished. This is one of those products that i will be repurchasing until i can no longer get my grubby mitts on it .

Have any of you tried this? What did you think? What's your favourite eye  makeup remover?

Products i repurchase.

Sorry for the lack of blogs lately i've been a bit preoccupied with other things but hopefully i shall blog more regularly,anyway onto todays blog! I like to try quite a lot of new products so its a big deal to me anyway when i repurchase something. Here are a few products i frequently repurchase .
All of these products are essential to me and as soon as one starts to run out i panic.I'm sure you have your own items you do this with to. From left to right we have
-batiste dry shampoo in cherry
I'm sure i am not alone in dry shampoo being a must have for second day hair.
I really like the smell of this and it does its job so i always buy another when its finished
-Witch naturally clear blemish stick
If you read my blog you will know how much i love and depend on this little stick.
Its super cheap and effective so i will ALWAYS repurchase 
-Garnier 2 in 1 makeup remover
I use this strictly as a eye makeup remover mainly as i have so many other cleansers.I have super sensitive eyes and i find this is the only product i have tried that gets all my eye makeup off and doesn't feel like it's blinding me in the process.
-St Ives naturally clear apricot scrub
I have been using this for years yes you read that right YEARS, i have lost count on how many of these tubes i have brought.I use this as my weekly scrub as i find it a little harsh for everyday use on my sensitive skin.
-Carino miracle oil with argan oil
Yes i know i harp on about this way too much so I'll keep it short and sweet.It makes my hair look and feel amazing so a definite repurchase for me.
-Garnier body intensive 7 days soothing gel cream
This is a recent addition to my body lotions and quite frankly knocks all of my other ones right out of the water. I will only be buying this body gel/cream from now on.It really does lock in moisture and helps clam my sensitive skin. Full review coming soon.

What are your repurchased products?

My April beauty Favourites

It's time for my april beauty favourites, I had soo many products that i enjoyed using in april but i had to narrow it down otherwise i would be typing all night. Well without further ado here they are!




 From left to right -Intecto Intensely hydrating Hair Repair Treatment I really enjoy using this as it leaves my hair smelling of luscious coconut and at the same time super soft.I got this from superdrugs,but i can't seem to find it on there website.I would still check in store if you're interested or alternatively buy from ebay.
Clarins water comfort one-step cleanser I love using this in the morning as its super quick,makes my skin feel super clean and soft. This is £19.50 on Clarins website
Origins Out of Trouble 10 minute mask I use this mask every week to help with my blemishes and oily skin, i seriously recommend giving this mask a try as it really works. This is £20.00 on Origins website.

 Bobbi brown SPF 15 Tinted Moisturizer (Shade extra light) I have been using this alot lately as it's very light on the skin, i like the coverage and the glow it gives me.The shade is a bit pink for me so next time i will be going a shade up and also getting the oil free version as my skin's been leaning more oily of late. This is £28.00 on Bobbi brown's website.
Clinique high impact mascara This is one of my ALL time favourite mascaras, it separates my lashes while giving them volume and doesn't irritate my sensitive eyes, enough said really. This is £16.00 on cliniques website.
Nivea essential care lip balm I always have terribly dry lips so go through my fair share of lip balms.I really love this one as it does the job and is super cheap.You can pretty much find this in most shops.£1.65 on Boots website
MAC casual colour Lip & Cheek colour in HAVE A LOVELY DAY! I'm pretty sure this was limited edition, sorry guys I just had to add this because it's my ALL time favourite blush, i like the formula the colour and the finish, i honestly don't know what i'm going to do when this runs out,cry maybe?

Last but not by any means least Carino Miracle oil with argan oil To say i love this product would be the understatement of the century! I freaking can not live without this it makes my hair look shiny and healthy while making it feel super silky. £3.99 at Alidis

I hope you guys enjoyed this post,please leave a comment if you have any questions/comments.
