Secondly I added the Vitamin E Face Mist (£8) because I am not a great fan of cream moisturisers for the face, even though they feel and smell gorgeous, I always feel like I've just spent ten minutes cleansing and toning my skin to unclog it from all the products only to clog it up with another one, so I chose this one, there is also a Vitamin C Face Mist (£9) which I am really interested in but I went for E because of the moisture factor. I have used MAC Fix+ (£15) for years and it was much cheaper when I started using it, around £11 so I didn't used to mind so much, but considering that I don't even use it to fix/set my make up, as intended, and only use it for refreshing my skin and at night as a quick moisturiser before bed I figured I'm spending way too much, almost double the price for the same quantity, I am loving this one and think this will definitely be my new staple. It smells lovely and doesn't leave that stiff skin feeling where you feel like you can't smile without cracking.

Thirdly I am really loving the sound of some of the masques and exfoliators in Bodyshop. They are a bit pricey to just grab as a test but now they do little sachets (£1.50) so I got one Vitamin C Exfoliator and one Vitamin E moisture masque, I have tried them both (I got enough in the sachet for two goes so I was very happy) and I really love the Exfoliator it's really fresh and the beads aren't too big so you don't feel like you're ripping your skin, I think I'm going to invest in the full sized one. As for the moisture masque I do like it and it did work, (you put it on clean skin, leave for 10 minutes and then just wipe it off with cotton wool) my skin felt smooth and soft after, the only thing I found was when I woke up in the morning I was so oily all over my face, so I'm going to have to test that one again before I commit to the big pot.

Lastly my lip regime, I recently invested in the famous Lanolips 101 Ointment (£10.50 www.boots.com) which I have to agree is really great, I have used it three times so far and can safely and honestly say I can feel the difference the whole day after (I have used it at night) so I would say its worth the money, a little goes a really long way as it is very thick. I have also pulled out an old classic just recently since it is winter and all, the Bubblegum Lip Scrub by LUSH (www.lush.co.uk Around £5) again an amazing product, actually edible too, and smells delicious, they do a whole range of flavours, I'm just a really pink girl and a sweet smell lover. Definitely worth the money it lasts ages.

I thought I'd add in a photo of my new £1.99 bargain pot that I recently posted about in action in its new home since its job is to hold everything I need for my skincare routine (cotton wool balls, cotton buds and cotton beauty buds all from Boots).
