My 10 Second Exfoliator ...


When I'm feeling lazy, the last thing I want to do is exfoliate my face, but sometimes my skin really needs it so I head straight for my Simple Exfoliating Wipes. You might have noticed that recently I did a post raving about the Simple Cleansing Wipes so expect the same from this one! Funnily enough, this wipes are quite similar to the cleansing wipes apart from a very obvious difference that these wipes contain.

The wipes have thousands of tiny bumps that help scrub away any dead skin which helps leave my skin feeling lovely and smooth. Just like all the other Simple products, these wipes contain NO alcohol, NO oils, NO perfumes and NO colourings so my skin isn't left feeling tight or sore. And the great thing about using exfoliating wipes is that you don't have to sponge off every single tiny exfoliating bead that you usually get with normal lotion exfoliators, so these wipes literally take 10 seconds to use!

I would really recommend Simple products to anyone with sensitive skin because they are truly amazing!

Gifts For Girls #1

Today's blog post is going to be a helpful hand for ideas on what to get any female in your life whether its your Nan, Mum, Auntie, Sister, Best friend or Girlfriend! I hope it helps anyone that's pondering on ideas for presents for Birthdays, Anniversary's and Christmas (remember its only 3 months away!).

At the beginning of September it was my mums birthday and buying a present for her was easy as I know she loves Sanctuary products. Straight away I headed for Boots and picked up this Youth Boosting Facial In-A-Box for around about £16. As you can see below, the packaging is really pretty and was one of the things that helped me decide on this item. On the front it describes the set as "A 30 minute step by step pampering treatment for skin that looks and feels visibly firmed and plumped" and it contains 5 products inside.
 
Inside the box is (Below from L-R) The Time Reversal Face Mask, Firming Youth Serum, Stop the Clock Moisturiser with SPF 15, Warming Micro Brasion Polish and Lift and Brighten Eye Complex.


 
What's really great about this product is even if you have no experience with facials it gives you all the information and steps on a card slotted underneath the product tray which makes this product a great gift idea! You can either just give this as a present or you can perform the facial on the lucky receiver!


My mum was really happy with this present and it's definitely something I'll keep in mind for future presents.
 
What do you think are great gifts for the women in your life?

Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes Review


I have been using Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes for over 2 years now and I love them so much that I haven't purchased any other facial cleansing wipes since first using them. I use these wipes for removing make up including waterproof mascara and they've never let me down.

Previous to buying these Simple wipes I was tired of using facial wipes that burnt my skin and eyes and had a strong smell of alcohol. Simple wipes contain NO alcohol, NO oils, NO perfumes and NO colourings. So when I first used these wipes I loved how they made me skin feel clean and fresh rather than sore and tight. My only negative is that there are only 25 wipes in a packet. Not to be picky but 30 would be great (1 wipe for each day of the month, give or take).

As well as using only 1 wipe to remove all my facial make up, plus my eye make up, I am amazed that it is still capable of removing my waterproof mascara without suffering with stinging eyes. I honestly don't see myself buying any other cleansing wipes, these wipes are truly the holy grail of cleansing wipes!! LOVE THEM!
