OMG! Let me begin by saying that I've been epilating for over 10 years now and I'm really impressed with this product.

The new Silk- épil 9 is fabulous! I've always had thick, strong hair, head to toe. I understand that hair removal can be frustrating sometimes and trying to find the best method for your needs can be really confusing so, let's talk about the features that makes this device so great.

With a 40% wider head this Top-of-the-line epilator, covers more area and removes more hair in one stroke. Plus you do not have to wait for your hair to grow out as long as its new MicroGrip Tweezer technology removes hairs as short as 0.5 mm long!

To increase efficiency, the Braun Silk- épil 9 has an ergonomic design, really comfortable to hold and its 40 tweezers pivoting head adapts to body contours for superior comfort and efficiency.

In addition to the hand-held device, this complete epilator set comes with an additional shaver-head and trimmer cap, a deep exfoliation brush, a gentle exfoliation brush, a deep massage pad, two protection caps, a facial cap and a power cap . It also has a smart charging stand, power cord and a cleaning brush. So you can remove hair, prevent ingrown hairs, shave and even give yourself to deep massage, all with just one kit!

Now, into the features: - Smartlight: great for highlighting finer and fairer hairs for best results.

- Long-lasting battery: charges in 1 hour for 40 minutes of use.

- 2 speed settings: dual speed settings that allows you to choose between slower speed for more sensitive areas such as bikini-line or underarms or a higher speed to clear thicker, coarser hair on larger areas faster.

- 100% waterproof: You can use the Silk-épil 9 on dry or wet skin. It can also be used in shower or bath.

- Pulsing vibration: to reduce any discomfort you may feel. I personally think this works great for people who have sensitive skin or are new to this type of hair removal method.

Overall, I think that the new Braun Silk- épil 9 ticks all the boxes. I was truly surprised about the lack of irritation on my skin after using this device. Also, it felt a lot less aggressive on my skin than my older epilators.

Cons: From my point of view, there are not many other cons to be mentioned apart from the fact that it can not be used while it is charging. Price point might be on the higher end but its justified by its features and efficiency.

I will recommend this product 100%.

I love a sweet smelling perfume and this one ticks all my boxes! Loved it as a perfume growing up and this scent has stuck with me! It’s smells delicious and is a cheaper product on the market! It should be in everyone’s perfume collection, always use this at events and most days honestly! All rounder for me!

I bought the Volume BBBE for myself and today I got home to find the Repair BBBE on my doorstep - a gift from my sister! Well I opened it up and you guessed it - Fabulussss! Full of amazing products and perfume minis. My hands smell of it now and the smell is amazing !

I have purchased one of these to pop under the tree and the box is super christmassy and exciting looking. It feels heavy and full and I can't wait to open. I can't believe there are still boxes available as this is just an exciting box whether for yourself or a special friend or family.

I love this moisturizer. I've been using it as my daily for about 2 years now. I love the goodness packaging, plain but each product has a different colour. The only thing I don't like about it is the lid. I always drop it and lose it on the ground, I would prefer an attached lid. I used to use the other daily moisturizer, but I opted to this because of the spf factor. The moisturizer is thick but so easy to spread on your skin. It's not greasy and absorbs quickly. I still apply sunscreen over top in summer time, but use it as it is for winter.

I bought this from the supermarket when I saw it on special, and decided I would give it a try. The Goodness Every Morning Moisturiser SPF15 comes in a pink and white cardboard box. It states that it is certified organic and that it contains chia seed oil. It is made in New Zealand. Inside the box is a little folded up letter from Goodness thanking the buyer for purchasing the cream and explaining the benefits of chia seed oil. Apparently it contains Omegas 3 and 6, and it is “nourishing, hydrating and anti-inflammatory.” The moisturiser itself is packaged in a pink plastic tube with a dark brown lid. The tube stands on its lid and is 75mls. The moisturiser is white, and it has a reasonably strong, but very pleasant scent.

I have been applying this cream every morning for the past few weeks. My skin is sensitive and dry, so I need quite a rich cream that will not aggravate my skin. I am also very fair, so sun protection is important to me, especially in the warmer months. Some sunscreens make my eyes water when I apply them to my face. This moisturiser is rich, gentle, and easily absorbed by my dry skin. It leaves my skin feeling soft and plump, and it has not aggravated it at all. The sunscreen component does not make my eyes water, and although it is only SPF15, it seems to have provided reasonable protection for the early sunlight hours on my way to work. You also do not need to apply very much. A couple of pea-sized amounts are enough for the face and neck.

I definitely recommend this cream. It is not as rich as the Goodness Every Morning Moisturiser that comes without SPF, so I think it would work for a variety of skin types, from dry through to oily.

This is quite a nice balm, I mainly use it as lip balm or on dry patches/elbows. It has a very waxy, dry texture but warms up to a thin oil consistency. I would say that this is nice but not my favourite of all the multi use balms out there. You can kind of taste the rosehip flavour when using on your lips which I'm personally not a fan of, but this is great to use in winter.

My darling husband bought me the pedicure pack by Linden Leaves when I was pregnant with my daughter, this wee tub of delight-fullness was included along with a refreshing spray, exfoliating scrub and little foot socks.

The wee tub is robust plastic, and the moisturiser is thick and creamy, it takes a while to absorb but that is why the cotton socks were included (wow they really work). Now while I used everything from this kit the magic all came together with the moisturiser... I have never has such soft and smooth feet. The scent is very cucumber-y (which at times I found over-powering using all the products) but it is not too strong on it's own.

I still have some in my foot spa/pedi box that I must remember to use next footspa time as my poor feet are feeling in need of some TLC.

I recently got this 25ml size in the 2018 Beautiful Christmas box. Big fan of the scent, I think it is the lemongrass that smells so amazing. This cream absorbs very easily and is non greasy like other foot cream products. Leaves my feet looking and smelling wonderful. Definitely a product I would love to get my hands on again.

I’m a sucker for DIY hair colours and often change up my colour - sometimes with amazing results, sometimes not so much....

To be honest I was drawn to this product because of the packaging, it’s really crisp and clear and appealing. Reading through the product details I discovered it’s ammonia free (what?! It’s bleach?!), but has an oil base bleach.

The contents are the usual - purple conditioner, developer, bleaching powder and lightening creme. The gloves come in a little capsule and are AMAZING!! Strong, easy to get on, flexible so you can still have great touch feel and a perfect size.

After applying in an balayage style I left it on for 45mins and washed out. There was no burning, no irritation and no awful smell.

I used the purple conditioner and after drying my hair was quite impressed. Yes there was a bit of brass showing through, but my hair had loads of colour build up and was quite dark so no surprise there.

My hair feels soft and not damaged at all. With some toner and purple shampoo it’s perfect.
