New dove compressed deodorants

Dove will be launching a new compressed deodorant from the 4th of February, these deodorants are half the size of a normal can but you get the same amount of deodorant as you normally would. How does this work you may ask? Well they do this by reducing the gas in the can but you still get the same amount of deodorant inside.
I think this is such a good idea as a smaller can is always useful for popping in your gym bag or shopping bag and plus its better for the environment too.

I was sent some to try and I have to say its just as good if not better than the standard dove deodorant and I love the new dinky can, I will definitely be getting some of these for my holiday!

So next time your out shopping don't think that these are just travel size cans because there not, go and try it for yourself :)

20p lipsticks

Hi there today's post is about some lipsticks I got for 20p each, yes 20p!

I was browsing the 99p shop at the weekend and I noticed some tester lipsticks in packs of 3, I didn't think much to them but on closer inspection I noticed they were rimmel ones and upon opening them I noticed that they was almost full size, they just had them lids on that you get on the tester lipsticks in the makeup isle. At 30p each I bought an pack then when I got the till they scanned through at 59p!
So of course I went pack and bought a couple more packs!

out of the packs I got I had a range of reds,pinks and nudes.

I'm so excited to try them all, I will be doing a more detailed post when I have :)

Daily skincare

Today's blog is about my daily skincare products that I am currently using. 

In terms of day skincare I use Ren vita -mineral day cream, I have been using this every day for over a month and its nearly all used up, I find this cream really good during the current cold weather as it is really moisturising but at the same time it doesn't make my skin oily or break me out which is great. 

I bought this in a Ren try me set, these sets are really good if you want to try out new products rather than buying the full size, there are different sets for different skin types too. 

THe next product I use is an eye cream by Holly Robinson Peter, I actually bought this in a tkmaxx sale not too long ago for just a pound, I hadn't heard of this brand before, I think it's American? But I thought I would give it a go as I was looking for a new eye cream, it has a lovely texture that feels very fresh and colour and absorbs instantly. 

As for night time products I am currently using bio effect EGF serum that I got with the latest in beauty advent calendar, I have been using it for about a week now, I haven't noticed any really amazing results yet, it does seem to make my skin look brighter and more radiant in the mornings but I haven't noticed any difference in dark spots or anything. 

Other products I use at night usually are Ren clearcalm replenishing night serum, this is like a light moisturiser rather than a serum but it absorbs instantly and makes my skin feel soft and smooth, it does seem to minimise blemishes too. 

The final product is Ren frankincense night cream, I tend to use this when my skin is feeling dry or needs a moisture boost, it is great for when I have been out in the cold wind all day and my skin always looks better in the morning after using this.

                                             

First ever beauty blog

Hi there well where do i start?
Im new to this beauty blogging business, i already have a blog which is thatgirl21.blogspot.co.uk which is basically a blog about things in life that make me curious or i feel the need to moan about ha. 

I follow alot of beauty blogs and i always look for reviews about products before buying anything, now i think ikts my turn to do my own beauty blog!
I  have always liked makeup and skincare and for the past year i have been increasingly interested in more natural and organic skincare as i feel there shouldnt  be all these nasty chemicals in products. 
This all started when i used some products from liz earles range and i also had read articles about chemicals contained in beauty products, especially skincare, i decided then that i would no longer use products that contain sulphates, parabens or other horrible chemicals
Ive now got in a habit of reading all the ingredients in products and about 8 times out of 10 i cant buy a product because of the ingredients which can be annoying at times, but never mind!


As for makeup i like to experiment with different brands and products. 
My moto however though is  that you need good skincare first and then your skin will look all the better for it and you wont need as much face makeup, they do say beauty is skin deep after all!

So in this blog i will be doing reviews of skincare, makeup, hair and other little bits 

Thanks for reading and i will be doing the first review soon!
