Mini Body Washes

I've always loved The Body Shop and their mini body washes are delightful. They lather up really well, the smell payoff is beyond this world and lingers for ages (especially the Moringa one). They have such bright and brilliant colours that look marvellous on any shelf and jazz up your bathroom a little bit. The three I have are the Japanese Cherry Blossom, Strawberry and Moringa ones - they are all fantastic (as you can see i've used a lot of them) and I would really recommend them. While you can get them in larger sizes, to be honest i'd get these smaller ones first because you can try them out and see which you like the best, all at a lower price.

My June Bathroom Shelf



I go through a lot of phases when it comes to skin care and I just thought I would tell you about my recent one that i've been using for about two-three months.

First I use the "Gentle Skin Cleanser" by Cetaphil to wash and cleanse my face. It takes off any makeup and seems to clean my face well. If I have heavy makeup on, it will take a bit of scrubbing to get off and maybe two pumps of the Cetaphil but it does work. It's easy, better than plain soap and inexpensive. Here it is if you'd like to buy it.

Secondly, I use St. Ives "Green Tea Scrub" as an exfoliator. This stuff is great, it comes out in a heavy green paste and only a small amount (maybe three peas worth, size wise) is needed to cover the entire face. You gently rub it in and there are little beads that exfoliate your skin, you can also leave it on for longer to exfoliate even more. I use it about three times a week and it appears to be working rather well. This is it here and it's also rather inexpensive and smells like green tea which is soothing :)

Finally, a christmas present from this year was "Cranberry Joy Body Scrub"  from The Body Shop and I have recently started using it. I use a small amount about once or twice a week, place it on my body and using a sponge thingy (one of these) I work it into my skin. It comes out as a thin gooey consistency with little beads in it, but scrubs up to become white and foamy. This scrub moisturises like heaven, smells like Christmas and is great all round. However, it was limited edition at Christmas, so is gone now but may be back at the end of the year - so keep you eye out! However, do not despair, The Body Shop has several other body scrubs just like this one that you can get currently.

I hope this has helped you a little bit, or given you some inspiration for creating your own skin/shower regime :)
