Wholesale Hair at BrazilianHairTop

There are a lot of reasons why somebody would choose to wear a wig or extensions, whether it is to simply change up their look, they dislike their hair's natural texture, they don't want to damage their natural hair by using heat styling or dyes, they can't wait for their hair to grow longer or sadly, they might have a health problem that impedes their hair from growing.

However this is where wigs and hair extensions from hair vendors come in handy because it means that for the follicularly challenged these type of wearable products can provide some relief and improve self confidence.

Aromatherapy Associates Orange Flower Mattifying Moisturiser

Aromatherapy Associates Orange Flower Mattifying Moisturiser review and where to buy cheap

A while back I found the Aromatherapy Associates Orange Flower Mattifying Moisturiser at Poundstretcher for under £5, as I recognised the brand and couldn't pass up such a bargain.

The Aromatherapy Associates Orange Flower Mattifying Moisturiser claims to "moisturise, protect, regulate and clarify the skin's complexion" with evening primrose, rice germ and neroli, while also "leaving it smooth and matt" thanks to the use of oat extract.   

The texture of this moisturiser is very light and lotion-like, it doesn't feel greasy and doesn't leave my skin looking shiny either, but it does make it look more even in tone and also makes it soft and supple. It gets absorbed fast and has a soft natural scent that doesn't linger, plus it wears well under my SPF and would probably make a good primer under foundations.

Originally I wasn't expecting too much from this moisturiser as I thought it was just an overpriced brand but after trying out the Aromatherapy Associates Orange Flower Mattifying Moisturiser, I'm definitely interested in trying out more of their products, especially from the Mattifying range

Old English Company Personalised Notebooks

Ever since I can remember I've been a stationery fan, even when a lot of our work and life has gone digital there is always something so nice about having a physical version of our notes.

With people starting to go back to school and work, a beautiful personalised piece of stationery can make a great gift and give you the encouragement you need to start a new life chapter. Even if you are working from home, the right stationery can help you keep you motivated to stay on track. 

The people at Old English Company have generously sent me one of their beautiful personalised notebooks. I chose the Know Your Worth notebook which reads "Know Your Worth, Then Add Tax" and my name in gold foil, has a softback cover, 140 lined pages in 100 gsm ivory paper and is made in England using FSC certified wood.

I love the gold writing against the pink background and the quality of the paper is really good, I plan to use this notebook to keep track of my finances, which is why I picked that specific cover but they have lots of different notebook designs to choose from, all of which can be personalised with a name or short message. 

The Old English Company also gave me a 15% off discount code to share with you: OESPECBR15 so do check them out if you are looking to expand your stationery collection!

Nivea 1 Minute Urban Detox Mask

Nivea 1 Minute Urban Detox Mask

 A while ago I picked up the Nivea 1 Minute Urban Detox Mask as it was reduced to clear for around £1 in my local Superdrug and I can't resist a good bargain, especially when it comes to skincare. 

The Nivea 1 Minute Urban Detox Mask contains White Clay and Active Magnolia Extract. This face mask is meant to detoxify by reducing environmental stressors, exfoliate dead skin cells to provide extra deep cleansing, and purify skin while refining its appearance. 

What I found very interesting is the claim that it works in just 1 minute, which I obviously had to try to find out if it was true. I applied a thin layer all over my face and found that it dried quite fast. Something I didn't realise is that the mask has exfoliating particles (which isn't mentioned anywhere) and I rather it didn't have them as I prefer a chemical exfoliation over a physical one nowadays. 

After rinsing it off (very carefully to avoid irritating my skin with the exfoliating particles) I find that my skin feels softer, smoother and the next morning it is less oily with a more even looking tone.

There are some good ingredients in the Nivea 1 Minute Urban Detox Mask such as Kaolin, Glycerin, Shea Butter, Magnolia Extract and Castor Oil, however it contains some ingredients that aren't ideal in skincare such as Alcohol Denatured, which can dry skin out.

Overall, it is a nice affordable mask that is very quick and easy to use and produces noticeable results with minimal effort so I would recommend it if you have oily skin and are looking for a softening and smoothing clay face mask that works fast.

Find the Nivea 1 Minute Urban Detox Mask in Savers and Wilko.
