Product of the Month Of June...Mandara Spa!

Hello My Lovelies

I've used a few products from this brand before but I'm in love with Mandara Spa's scent Tropical Bloom and in particular their hand cream and one which I've been using lots this past month.

A beautiful floral fragrance with a hint of jasmine and ylang ylang it sinks in to the skin within seconds, there's nothing worse than a greasy hand cream especially if you're working. The hand cream properties include moisturising jojoba oil, smoothing rice germ oil, hibiscus flower milk and protecting vitamin E.

I keep this on my desk at work to encourage me to moisturise my hands more as I'm atrocious at keeping my dry hands cared for. I love the pump as it's easy to use and no fiddling with silly time consuming lids.

For £6.00 you get a whopping 275ml of product which means I'll definitely still be using this come the colder months. Pick a bottle up from Sainsburys or online at timetospa.co.uk

Till next time,

Liz Earle: The Island Wellness Spa Event

Hello My Lovelies

I'm a super fan of the Liz Earle products I've been using the Cleanse and Polish for many years and it's the only cleanser that I will actually use on my skin as it's so effective. Recently I saw on Twitter that Liz and her co founder Kim Buckland would be visiting my Isle (where the brand was founded) to launch their new Island Wellness Spa at The West Bay Country Club & Spa so I knew I had to be there to hear all the details of this exciting launch.

The event was held in a stunning marquee on the grounds of the West Bay and as you entered you could smell the amazing aroma of Liz Earle candles before we were warmly welcomed with champagne, elderflower water and canapés.

Before Liz and Kim took to the floor we were given the opportunity to mingle and discuss the full range of products with staff on hand to help and advise. We were also all given the opportunity to enter a competition to win lots of goodies. 

Before long Kim and Liz excitedly introduced the new Wellness Spa at The West Bay Country Club; a beautiful location to relax and enjoy a Liz Earle facial, a juice in the bistro and a swim in the pool. Liz also discussed her magazine and new book which promises to give you all the tips you need to achieve beautiful, radiant skin in 6 weeks! 

To finish we were all treated to a bag full of beautiful Liz Earle treats including the award winning Cleanse and Polish. I can't wait to book my first ever Liz Earle facial in the very near future and to share my experience with you all here on my blog.

Have you ever had a signature facial in any of the Liz Earle stores? What are your favourite products from the brand? Let me know in the comments.

Till next time,

                   Tori.

Disappointing Product Number 6: Kylie Jenner Nail Polish!

Hello My Lovelies

A few years ago Boots used to stock Sinful Colour nail polishes- at first I went crazy for them as they were a brand from America and secondly they were super cheap and then they disappeared. So when I heard Superdrug were going to be stocking them and in collaboration with Kylie Jenner I was really excited.

I ordered the shade Komando a sheer nude which I thought would be perfect for work or a summer wedding. Granted when I ordered this polish I didn't order the top coat as I thought my own would be just as good, but even without this the polish was extremely runny and thin and took three coats for it to look semi decent. The longevity was shocking with only a couple of days before I had to remove it!

The colour and base cost £3 each and whilst they are pretty cheap I know that I can get a better quality nail polish with a similar priced brand like Barry M. I love celebrity endorsements but on this occasion I felt Kylie Jenner just threw her name at the brand, took the money but would never be seen dead wearing the colours on her own nails- and that's disappointing from a consumer and fan.

If they were to look at the formula I may be persuaded to try this polish again but for now I'm going avoid the rest of the collection.

Have you tried any of the Sinful Colour polishes? Let me know in the comments what you think.

Till next time,
