Skincare & Pamper Haul || Lush, Origins & More (+ First Impressions)


I've got my hands on a fair few skincare and body bits so I thought I'd do a pampering haul post!


I've already done a post on the amazingggg bargain Dolly's Mixture  Shower Gels (which you can check out here), but if you missed it these shower gels are currently £1 (half price) at ASDA. They're absolutely beautiful! They have all sorts of flavours: cocktails, sweets, cupcakes...



I went on a bit of a Lush spree, as I often do this time of year! I've actually never tried their face skincare stuff as I tend to opt for more science-y type brands, but I was feeling a pamper session and just wanted something yummy! So I picked up the Movis Soap (which smells like baking but not too rich to put on your face) (£4.50/100g) and the Cupcake Face Mask (£6.50/75g), which looks all chocolate-y and lovely. The Movis Soap is a little messy to use but I definitely feel my skin cleared up a little after using it for a few days, you only need the tiniest amount or it'll dry your skin up. I wouldn't use these daily as they are fragranced.




I also got a Candy Mountain Bath Fizz (£2.75) and a Honey I Washed The Kids Soap (£3.40/100g). They really aren't the best for your body so I try and use bath products sparingly and occasionally or just have them to pop into a foot soak. I also got my old favourite Snow Fairy (£3.75/100g), just a mini one as I still have some from last year and I'm hoping to get the gift set or some large ones for Christmas... 

I was lucky enough to win a giveaway over on One Little Vice, a blog that I love! I won two mini Origins products: the Checks and Balances Frothy Face Wash and Drink Up Intensive Overnight Mask. So thank you so much to Angelica, who I had the pleasure of meeting at the Bloggers' Tea Party Event.   


As I had a gift voucher for Feel Unique I got some things in their Pharmacy 1/3 Off Event. I got the Vichy Normaderm Total Mat Hydrating Gel (as I'm lucky enough to have dehydrated combination skin!) (RRP £13), Vichy Purete Thermale 3 in 1 Sensitive Skin Cleanser (RRP £11.50) and the Eucerin Dermo Purifier Active Night Care (RRP £9.18). The only thing I've tried so far is the Eucerin night cream and I'm impressed so far, as it's moisturising but mattifying; a must-have for oily skin!

Which skincare brands are you loving at the moment?
