Soap and Glory - Whipped Clean Shower butter.

Hi everyone, I hope you all had a lovely weekend! To start this week off I am going to review the Soap And Glory Whipped Clean Luxe Cream Wash Shower butter which is the perfect sweet treat for a Monday.

Soap and Glory - The breakfast scrub.

Hi everyone, hope you all are well and avoiding all the winter bugs that are going around! Today I am going to review my all time favourite body scrub from Soap and Glory, which is their Breakfast scrub. I have tried many body scrubs in the past but always end up returning to this one and here are the reasons why.

First of all this body scrub comes in quite a large tub and you get 300ml of product, so it lasts a while! The tub has a pretty pink and cream design which is very typical of Soap and Glory, and I find that I can leave this in the shower without any water getting through the lid and ruining the scrub.

The second thing that I love about this product is the smell, and I think that's what I love most about this scrub! As it is called the Breakfast scrub it contains honey, banana and almond extracts and when you open it the first smell you get is of maple syrup! It honestly smells so good you will want to eat it and it reminds me of American pancakes (But please don't as it won't taste nice!). 

Finally I also really like the texture of this scrub. It is not too harsh on the skin but you can feel it working away, and it also sticks really nicely to the skin so it is easy to spread around. When using I take a small scoop and rub it between my palms to help soften it and also to help spread it more evenly, and then I simply just rub in circular motions and wash off.

A tub of this body scrub costs £8 which I think is great value as it lasts ages and leaves my skin feeling really soft and clean afterwards. You can buy it here:

Soap And Glory - Matte lipstick in Pom Pom.

Hello again everyone, I hope you had a good weekend! Today I'm going to review one of my favourite matte lipsticks by Soap and Glory. Technically the full name of this lipstick is Soap And Glory Super Colour Fabulipstick Powder Coat Matte lipstick, but that's a bit of a mouthful so I decided to shorten it in the title. 

First of all I absolutely love the packaging of this lipstick. It comes in a sleek black metal case with of course the classic pink writing from Soap And Glory on it. The lipstick itself even has S&G embossed into it, and I think that this lipstick looks really high end.

I got the colour Pom Pom from the collection which is a nice musky berry pink. I think it is sort of in the middle between a pink and red lipstick and is great for making a statement lip, but also it isn't too over the top and can be perfect for the day as well.

I like to apply this lipstick with a brush, as it is a strong colour and to be honest I'm a bit messy when it comes to applying lipstick. The finish to this lipstick is a velvety matte, but what I love about it is that it isn't dying on my lips at all.

• This lipstick was meant to contain a 3–D PLUMP™ PEPTIDE COMPLEX which stimulates collagen production & builds up a three dimensional network to firm, tone and plump the lips’ surface which I didn't notice when I bought it. However I have not noticed any plumping effect/tingling at all, but luckily that doesn't bother me as that's not what I really want.

This lipstick usually lasts me for about 6 hours before I need to reapply so it is long lasting, and I don't get too much product transfer whenever I eat or drink anything.  

This lipstick was a bargain at £9 and comes in 3 different shades. Also at the moment it is 3 for 2 at boots, so you can get an item for free if you pick up any two soap and glory products. You can buy it here:

Soap and Glory - Kick Ass Blur & Brighten Concealer.

Today I am going to review the new Soap and Glory Kick Ass Blur & Brighten concealer crayon. I purchased this a few weeks ago as I was looking for a new under eye concealer and so far this one has been brilliant, which is handy as I have been really needing a good under eye concealer for the last few weeks because I'm sure that I'm becoming nocturnal! 

This concealer comes in crayon form which makes it really easy to use and apply under the eyes. Also due to it's easy application and not needing to use a brush it is the perfect concealer to use on the go. Like the Chubby Stick I reviewed yesterday (http://ramblingmakeup.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/clinique-chubby-stick-super-strawberry.html) there is no need for a sharpener as when you twist the end, the concealer comes out of the top.

The texture of this concealer is really soft and easy to blend, and when applying I usually draw a triangle under each eye and blend it in with my finger. It absorbs well into the skin and provides excellent coverage which really helps to cover my dark circles and bags under my eyes.

 I also sometimes apply this over any blemishes that appear and it instantly covers them up, however I find that this product is quit soft and moisturising and I wouldn't recommend using it on parts of your skin that are really oily as I feel like it would come off quite easily.

The wear time of this concealer is really good and it usually lasts me for about 6 hours until I need to think about reapplying any, also if I set it with a powder it helps make it last even longer.

This concealer comes in two shades either light or medium (I purchased light)  and is a real bargain at £6, so it's definitely worth trying out! You can buy it at your local Boots or online here:

What's your favourite Soap and Glory product?

Soap and glory - Puffy eye attack.

Summer is here and with the weather getting warmer and the light lasting longer later nights out become of a more common thing, which can only mean one thing... Dark circles appearing more often. Also it means more time being spent outside and for some hay fever suffers this means puffy eyes. So I went out and got a new eye gel which can help solve these problems. 

As I have said before I think that looking after the skin around your eyes is very important as quite often your eyes show the first sign of aging. However only being 21 I did not want to go out and buy an anti aging product as I don't feel  my skin needs that yet, though I did want something that would help keep my eyes looking healthy and I think Puffy Eye Attack is the perfect product.

Soap and glory claim that this eye gel will reduce dark circles and puffy eyes, increase circulation and cell respiration to keep eyes looking healthy and help fight aging (Perfect for younger skin). I have been using this product for a few weeks now and I can definitely say that my eyes are looking healthier and the dark circles under my eyes are reduced. I don't really suffer from puffy eyes so I can't really comment on that aspect of the eye gel. 

I use this eye gel in the morning and evening and it has a nice cooling effect when you first apply. I find this gel to be very moisutrising so when I apply I only need the tiniest dab on my finger to spread around my eye area. 

I quite like the packaging for the eye gel, it comes in a nice simple white plastic tub which is small enough to be able to take traveling with you, which is a benefit.

This eye gel costs £12.50 which I think is reasonable as it seems to be improving my under eye skin and I think it will last a long time as you only need a tiny amount. You can buy it at Boots or online here:

Are you a fan of Soap and Glory? 

Beauty haul.

It's result day tomorrow and I always get really stressed out about it, and when I'm stressed I have a tendency to go shopping (I am a stress spender). I should really get someone to hold me back during times like these, but it did result in me getting a load of new beauty products which I can't wait to try out and review!
