Shopping my Stash #82

Here's what I've been reaching for this week:

Escentric Molecules 01 30ml - this cult perfume is smells differently on everyone. It featured in my perfume collection post HERE.  Make Up Forever Artist Rouge mat deluxe sample was a choice from my latest Love Me Beauty picks. Such a lush colour which would be perfect for Christmas time. Get £21 of free goodies if you use my code SANDR174.

Aesop Parsley Seed Facial Cleanser 15ml - this came from a set which was an impulse buy. The set had been on the wishlist a while though. Really lovely to use and one I'd buy full size. 

Oribe Dry Texturising Spray 75ml - which came in a Latest in Beauty beauty box. It's a dry shampoo which also adds texture and volume. Probably one of the best dry shampoos I've used and it has a beautiful scent - with notes of citrus bergamot, pink lemon, white peach, cassis, muget, apples, cedarwood, white amber, musk and la mariposa flower. I first mentioned Skincere here* and here*. These award winning products are great for sensitive skin types and are really lovely to use.

Having loved all the products I took on holiday it was nice to come home to a change!

I've been testing out a few products from Skincere*. The Eye Serum* (currently £11.24 for 15ml) is super gentle and absorbs instantly. It helps brighten the delicate eye area and helps smooth out fine lines and wrinkles. The products are Fragrance Free, Dermatologically Tested, Hypoallergenic and free from Parabens and SLS.

I picked up this Balance Me Super Toning Body Polish as a magazine freebie this month. It's really lovely to use with just the right amount of "scrub". It's worth grabbing if you can as the 50ml size is worth a tenner.

I'm a huge fan of Antipodes and their Avocado Pear Nourishing Night Cream is just a delight. It deeply nourishes the skin leaving it feeling comfortable and moisturised. I mentioned it here.

Atelier Cologne Vanille Insensée 30ml an impulse buy which I just love. See my review here.

Finally, two Living Proof "full" mini Shampoo & Conditioner which are fantastic. I'll definitely buy full size. As well as smelling gorgeous the products transform fine flyaway hair giving it body and volume.

Here's what I've been reaching for lately:

Saach Organics Liquorice and Carrot Seed Day Protection Lotion and Sunscreen SPF15 which is perfect for using just now.  It has a delicious spicy scent. See my review HERE. Huge congratulations must go to Saach Organics who recently won a host of awards over at The Green Parent mag.

I've been testing out Skincere's Day* and Night Creams* and they are perfect for sensitive skin types as the products are free from preservatives, alcohol, wheat, soya, dairy and fragrance free. Very effective with gorgeous packaging. The creams melt easily into the skin leaving it comfortable and nourished.

As you know I'm a huge fan of Skin & Tonic's STEAM CLEAN (which is up there in my 5 favourite products of all time). I'd say their Rose Mist* is a close second! It refreshes and tones the skin and smells of roses. Totally lush. See my review HERE.

I used to love REDKEN's natural detox shampoo which sadly they discontinued. My current favourite if Avalon Organics Clarifying Lemon Shampoo which deeply cleanses the hair without stripping. It's absolutely fantastic (as well as being brilliant value). See my review HERE.

I'm a huge fan of fig scents and my favourite being cult classic Philosykos by Diptyque. Figuier & Osmanthus EdT from L'Occitane was limited edition last summer and is fruity and refreshing. It featured in my summer scents last year (link).
