Sunday
afternoons are the perfect time to sit down with a cup of tea and blog! This is
why I have decided to start a Sunday series and that’s going to be 'product of the week'.
Each week on Sunday afternoon, I am going to post and review my fave product of
the week. I love reading recommendations, as it’s usually where I get my
inspiration for my next Boots haul.
Anyway,
before I get started, can I just start off by saying how cray the weather
has been this weekend! The thunderstorm on Friday night was epic; I sat up and
watched it for a good hour! Then the weather was absolutely beautiful yesterday
and I awoke this morning to the most refreshing downpour ever (and we all know
that rain is my favourite).
Hmm,
apologies for my weather related ramble…now onto the good stuff. My product of
the week this week is none other than the Soap & Glory – Whipped Clean Luxecream wash shower butter. I bought this product last weekend and I have
literally used it every day since, it is absolutely amazing.
Now
lets start off with the fragrance – it smells absolutely incredible!! Its
almond, pistachio and sweet vanilla scent and my my my it smells good enough
to eat - genuinely like ice cream. I instantly fell in love with the product just from the smell. The
fragrance of things is usually really important to me as it is the first thing that
will draw my attention to something…if it doesn’t smell good then I will tend
to just discard it straight away, cause lets be honest who wants to lather
themselves in something that smells gross? But that was not an issue here, so I
carried on with my purchase.
Next
thing that usually will draw my attention to a product is how hydrating and
moisturizing it is. As a dry skin sufferer I am forever on the lookout for the
words ‘hydrating and ‘moisturizing’. Right underneath the title it quotes “with
over 25% moisture oils and butters” and I thought bingo, this meets the second
product criteria! I always need to keep my skin super moisturized but I can get
lazy with it, when I get out the shower I like to get dry and dressed straight
away and the idea of using a sticky moisturizer just doesn’t always appeal to
me, so I tend to skip this step and then I regret it later on…the
idea of moisturizing in the shower is just perfect for me, and has left my skin
feeling super silky smooth without the irritating stickiness!
I
read on the back of the bottle that it was recommended for shaving, so I
decided to give it a go. Now as every women shall know, bare leg season is
practically a full time job. Its constant upkeep can be exhausting. My skin can
often become irritated from shaving so I usually use a shaving cream, but I
would recommend this SO MUCH MORE. It has been great, it hasn’t left my skin
feeling irritated at all and as I said before, has left it feeling super
silky and moisturized…every girls dream for bare leg season!
I
absolutely have loved using this product and would really recommend it not only
for people with dry skin but for shaving and as an in shower body moisturizer
for the girls like me who hate moisturizing after a shower. It retails at
around £7 at boots which may seem a little on the pricey side but its something
I will continue to repurchase as it has done wonders for my skin this past
week.
What
products have you all been using? Any recommendations?
Much
love
