A Post-Holiday Haul

When I came back my holidays recently I had a bit of a splurge shopping online.  Here's what I picked up.

Balance Me Skin Bright Hydrating Mist £20 for 60ml - I simply adore this light and refreshing mist.  It featured in Shopping My Stash and my Balance Me Favourites posts.  I bought it from Naturisimo who at the time were offering a free One Love Organics sample set with orders over £15.


I picked up these lovely Merionwen goodies - Turkish Delight Lip Balm (£3.50 for 52g) and Vintage Rose Bath Treat (£2 for 5g).  See my post here.


Look how gorgeous the bath treats are - made me smile when I opened up the package - these would make a fab small gift.





A lovely Caudalie hand cream - in Feuille de Cassis (£6 - 30ml) - a rich hand cream scented with blackcurrant leaf, wild blackberry and Bergamot.  See my review here.


I'm nearly finished my first bottle of Skinvelop Cleanser (£10.50 - 120ml).  See my review here. This is one of my favourite cleansers and I'll always have it in my stash!  Jean also very kindly popped me in a couple of samples - Bamboo Glow - a facial exfoliator and Daily Rose Balm which smells gorgeous!  You can get further details about the products here.


I forgot to show you earlier two products I picked up on holiday - we stopped on the way home at Tarbert and I popped into the Loch Fyne Gallery a lovely shop with artwork, books, cards, jewellery, beauty products, candles etc.  I simply love Isle of Skye Soaps and I picked my favourite - Lemongrass Scrubby Soap.

I also bought Gigha's Natural Skincare Organic Coconut Body Butter 30ml - which I thought looked quite interesting. 




I simply loved the Lucy Annabella Organics Argan & Bergamot Organic Treatment Oil I got in my August Amarya box that I took advantage of the very generous 20% off any of the product featured in this month's box and bought a full size bottle (125ml).  This also came with a Trial Size Treatment Oil (10ml) which came free with any Lucy Annabella order (while stocks last) and if your order is over £5 you can choose three samples - I chose A'kin Macadamia & Wheat Conditioner (8ml), Estelle & Thild Facial Serum Rose Otto (2ml) and Lavera Beauty Balm 6-in-1 Tinted Moisturiser (1ml).



Have you used any of these products before?

  2. I have tried Lavera BB cream and I love it . For me is perfect as I don't like to wear foundation but at the same time I like a nice even skin tone as I suffer from hyperpigmentation. First of all I love the fact that is 100% natural , it is a good moisturizer and it absorbs quickly too.
