Quick Review: The Body Shop Pink Grapefruit Body Sorbet

With summer around the corner I want to talk about my experience on this body sorbet from The Body Shop.

 I chose this Pink Grapefruit fragrance as I just love the flavour and scent of pink grapefruit in general and, as you may know already, all The Body Shop's product have a very intense scent so I recommend this one if you really like the flavour you are buying.

 This body sorbet comes in a 200ml tube and costs £8.50 and it contains cold-pressed pink grapefruit seed oil (👍)

 First impression is a positive rich and refreshing fragrance. I open the tube and all I can smell is pink grapefruit everywhere 🍊.

 The consistency of this product is somewhere between a lotion and a gel. 
I can't say I love it, but definitely I don't hate it as is quite light and not much product is needed to cover the areas you want to indulge. 

 It's very easy to apply, but a downside fact is that leaves on a sticky-kind-of-feeling for a while. 
This unfortunately didn't help me feel too refreshed at first. This feeling is particularly experienced on my hands used to apply the product, so I suggest you wash your hands after the use.

 This product can't be used on the face.

 Overall impression: amazing fragrance, not so great feeling after use - I will probably buy a different fragrance (just to try) only if on sale.

Bright Copper Colour Refresh - Maria Nila Review

H ave you ever thought that a change in your hair life is needed but, like me, you came to appreciate your hair and are now afraid of a drastic change? Well, this was me.. and I think it still is me. I really appreciate my hair, specially now that it's glowing and long and all that (one of the positive things of pregnancy!). But still, there were times that I felt like I needed an extra kick and that's why I decided to try something new to me. So, after some research on what kind of colour I could use (I wouldn't have used just any, as I'm pregnant), I found out about this Colour Refresh by Maria Nila . Yes, it's designed for coloured hair, to enhance and brighten up the colour your hair is suppose to have after you've already dyed your hair, but I thought that it could be nice to still give it a go. This product comes in a 300ml small bottle (the design is very modern), and it has all the instruction you need to follow on it, along with all the in...

Superdrug Calm Skin Serum & Moisturiser Review

H ello everyone! I'm back with a review after a while. I've been to Italy for 3 weeks to enjoy time with my family since I'm on maternity leave 💖 Now we all know that taking care of our skin in summer is a bit of a hustle. Late nights, sea water, the heat, the sun, not feeling like taking off our make-up several times and other factors all contributed to making my skin show some irritation and break outs in a few areas of my face. And of course having sensitive skin doesn't help at all! I will talk probably on another post about the stress of carrying only selected liquid items on a plane - meaning my skincare was poor for 3 weeks and often I used products that my mum or my sisters bought for themselves (meaning they were not necessarily suitable for sensitive skin). But today I want to focus on my life-saver! A couple of weeks before flying to Italy I popped into Superdrug as per my usual morning walk routine knowing I had to find something suitable f...

Phil Smith - Coco Licious Coconut Dry Shampoo - Review

H ello there! Now isn't summer the best season? Well, sometimes my hair doesn't agree with me on this and often I feel I don't know what to do to make it look fresh and healthy. So I decided to buy this Phil Smith Coco Licious Coconut dry shampoo and here I want to share with you my thoughts. I found this product in Sainsbury's supermarket for a reasonable price (£ 2,50 for a 150ml bottle) and it's suitable for all hair types. The packaging looks very fresh and appealing, with this white and golden colours and I admit that's one of the reasons I chose this one instead of other brands/products. I've never tried a dry shampoo before this one, so I was quite doubtful that the product would work at first, so I followed the instructions written on the back of the bottle to make sure I could get a promising result. Directions for use are very straight forward: - shake well the bottle before use - spray at 20cm distance - massage with fingertips ...
