Skin Care: Feet First!

Feet I feel are a very neglected part of our skincare and beauty routine. I suppose living here our feet don't get to see the light of day that often but when they do we should make sure they look fabulous. Don't worry I'm not going to post any pictures of feet! It doesn't matter if it's the middle of June or the middle of winter. Our feet should be pampered. After all we do use them for a good part of the day. Walking, standing, running, dancing etc.

My feet were horribly dry because yes I neglected them like so many others out there! I decided to take some action. Into Boots with myself and this was recommended to me.

Nails of the Week


This was my first nail colour this week. Purple! I got this in Penney's about 2 years ago. Glo Baby Glo. It's meant to glow under UV but I don't tend to venture near UV lights!
It needed to 2 coats to be classified as a deep purple. It doesn't look it here but it was a bit darker than Cadbury's purple.
The polish went on easy enough and wasn't messy. No doubt it was cheap enough so I can have no complaints here!







I was bored one night and when organising my nail polishes (might do a post on that!). I found my Rimmel - Flower Power. It's a very very very light shimmer pink. I decided to see what it would be like over the Glo Baby Glo purple.

Winter's Here. Hand Care Time

With the winter upon us and dry hands being a curse of this season I thought I'd blog about my favourite hand cream. Soap & Glory's Hand Food. I bought this hand cream after trying out my friend's one. It is indeed fabulous! I had labs in college 4 days a week and my hands were getting drier and drier from the gloves and constant hand washing. They felt awful. This hand cream has been a god send!

I have also been recommending it to a lot of my friends who I know suffered from the same problem as me through their jobs - working with food, in hospitals etc. Between the gloves, hand washing and hand sanitizers their hands were drier and harder than mine. I even told my dad about this hand cream. He works outdoors so his hands are weathered. I can safely say none of us have looked back!

What it says?
Contains shea butter, macadamia oil and marshmallow . Scented with our Original Pink fragrance. the most astonishing hand cream ever? You decide!
