Boots Botanics Moisturisers Review

A couple of months ago I bought some new moisturisers. I found that the Simple moisturiser wasn't really doing much good for my skin and my face was really quite dry especially near my eyes. I bought these in Boots on my friend's recommendation and because at the time they were half price so I thought I would try them and today I thougth I would do a litle review...

I bought the Boots Botanics All Bright Hydrating day and night cream. They are priced at £4.99 each which is really good as they come in 50ml tubs which I think will last quite a while.

The day cream has SPF 15 and claims to hydrate, protect and brighten for 24 hours. The consistency is quite runny but a little goes a long way and it absorbs quite quickly and it really does feel moisturising and is a nice base before make up becuase of the fact it include SPF and it protects the skin all day.

The night cream claims to brighten and hydrate overnight. The consistency is alot different to the day cream and it is quite thick which is perfect for night and it really sinks in and leaves it feeling really hydrated. I wouldn't say either of the creams really brighten but my face feels alot softer and I don't have any dryness.

I really like both of these creams and would recommend them and incase you didn't know alredy but the Botanics range has moisturisers for all skins types. The one that I chose is for normal/dry skin but they also do ones for all skins types, for fine lines and radiance, for deep lines and wrinkles, for oily to combination and for sensitive skin, so next time you need a new moisturiser go to Boots and look at the large range of skin care.

Garnier Micellar Water Review

I have been using micellar water to take my make up for a while now so today I thought I would do a little review.

I have used micellar water for just under a year and I have really been liking it. Before I tried this Garnier one I tried the 3 in 1 Nivea micellar water. I did like it but found it left my skin feeling a bit dry. While using that one I kept seeing and hearing good things about the Garnier one so decided to try it and now I haven't really used anything else! It is really effective at taking make up off easily and this one doesn't make my skin dry which is great. In between using this I have been using Bioderma which I picked up when I went to Paris. In my opinion it is very similar to this but a full review of that will be coming soon. The Garnier Micellar Water is £4.99 for a 400ml bottle which I think is such good value for money but it is often on offer at Boots so thats when I stock up although I think the bottle above is probably still my first as I sometimes use other products as I said before but I think it still shows how long it lasts as you don't need a lot. Overall this product is something I really recommend trying!

Mini Boots Haul

Yesterday I met up with two of my best friends. We went for lunch and then of course did some shopping, how could we resist and anyone who knows me know that I always end up in Boots! I needed to go anyway to pick up some items I had ran out of but that's not all I got so today I thought I would share with you what I got...

Botanics Hydrating All Bright Day Cream - £2.49 was £4.99

Botanics Hydrating All Bright Night Cream -£2.49 was £4.99

I had been needing some new moisturiser and thought I would try the Botanics range from Boots as its all half price at the moment  (review coming soon) 

Simply Sensitive Hydrating Eye Cream - £1.74 was £3.49

Again I was needing some more and decided to try this one from a Boots own range which a I think is new.

Rimmel Rita Ora Nail Polish Bestival Blue - £2.99

Rimmel Rita Ora Nail Polish Wild-er-ness - £2.99

I saw these a few days ago and really loved the new spring collection. I was priginally going to just get one but it was 3 for 2 so I gt another one. The colours are perfect for the new season and I can't wait to try them. 

Rimmel Nail Base and Top Coat 5 in 1- £4.49

I usually use the Sally Hansen one but I like to try new products so I decided to try this one which claims to make nails smoother, stronger, longer, moisturised and shinier.

All the products I bought came to £14.20 which I thought was so good and I saved £9.74 and also got double points so I was very happy with my new beauty purchases.
