What's in my shower?


I thought this would be a nice little post because I don't think I've done one of these, or have and it was so long ago that I've forgotten. 

It isn't the best photo in the world, but it has my most important things in at the moment. 
Mostly soap and glory products as you can see! i love them always have, 2 shower gels, only one is open at the m minute and i'm sure it will last a very long time because it normally does. i'm using the sugar crush one, and have the clean girls one to use next. I also have a body cream as well, witch it the smoothie one. This smells like heaven, its honestly to die for. It makes your skin feel so soft and smooth too. Next up is my tresemme hair mask, i only use this about once a week, or twice if i think my hair needs a little something more. But because i use it so little it has lasted a long time. Its very nice and not to expensive to buy either. I will be repurchasing it when i eventually run out, unless i find another one i want to try. I have started using the body shop cleansing oil, it takes my make up off quickly and makes my skin feel soft after use. You dont need much just literally one or two pumps. It's the first oil i have ever used and i am really enjoying it. 
I have a scrub, its nothing special just a cheap one from tesco but it does what i need it to do so thats all good. My neutrogena wave is my bathroom as well, i use this every now and again. You have to replace the pads ( not expensive ) but i feel like i dont need it every day. 
I keep my sanctuary body oil here as well for when i get out the shower or bath to put straight on. It's a lovely product, and isn't like a oil at all. 
In the background i know you can see my watch, a face mask from superdrug and my baby lips. Just things that are normally knocking around somewhere in my bathroom. 
I d didn't include shampoo and conditioner because this changes on a weekly basis as to what i'm fancying at the time, but it isn't anything special.

Sanctuary spa

5 day moisture cream body oil
I've heard great things about this product and finally persuaded myself to buy it, i'm a little disappointed in the packaging because i always think a pump dispenser is nicer to use and definitely would save on usage of the product, but that didn't put me off. The packaging and scent is just the standard sanctuary products.
It tells you to put on dry clean skin, and also states you can use it on damp skin if you prefer. I guess people have different times of the day when they apply it, and maybes its easier to do just after a shower, or for some its easier to do just before bed. 

It retails in boots for £7.00 but very often 3 for 2 is on a lot of the bath and body brands so you can get a good deal. 

Its a soft product that makes your skin feel very well looked after, and not sticky and oily like you expect it to do. Its a very nice luxury product for the price, so its worth a buy.

Recent Empties

I have a couple of empties, not many but i thought i would talk about them, before they go in the bin and i forget. 
Most of the things are shower related. 
I haven't really used up much recently, but i have rotated everything in my bathroom trying to get my fella to help use them up! 
I have some goodies waiting to be used and i hate waiting! 
I have been loving the radox shower gels, The new ones.. well quite new.
I used 2 different ones recently. 
- Berry Burst
- Cherry Blast
I really liked both of these, the creaminess of them and how they lather up. The fragrances are beautiful. I will defiantly repurchase these at some point because i did really enjoy these, ( think the fella did too, they went pretty quick ) Which is a downside, i like things to last, but they weren't very expensive. I think i bought them on offer at £1 each, ( I'm sure if you shop around you can find them at that price all the time ) 
These are the three in the range ( i think they have bought out a few more since )

Hot cloth cleanser

I have finally finished my hot cloth cleanser ( i dont mean that in a bad way ) i thought it was never going to end.. The product is so worth the money, it just kept going and going.
I was so impressed. I love this product and bought a new one quite a few weeks ago before i thought it was running out. Boy was i wrong.. I finally used it up tonight. 
This was the first hot cloth cleanser i've ever used and to be completely honest when i first bought it i didn't even know what it was, until i heard someone else taking about it, and started using it. Ive used it every day every since. 
I want to try a few others but haven't got around to it yet.. But i will. 
Its the Superdrug Hot cloth cleanser with muslin cloth. 
http://www.superdrug.com/superdrug/superdrug-hot-cloth-cleanser-with-muslin-cloth-150ml/invt/516251&bklist=
Full price £5.99, normally it is on offer, because each time I've bought it it has been around £3.00 

Sanctuary shower gel
This was a new try to me, i've never tried the brand before. i bought a gift set just after christmas from boots when it goes half price. It including a few different things, like shower gel body butter etc. I was really excited to try the brand after i heard a lot of things about the range. 
I have to admit i wasn't a huge fan off the shower gel. There was nothing great about it, the smell was overly nice. You didn't get a lot of product i was quite disappointed. I still have some more products to try from the range so i wont give up for the range just yet.

Wish List- Skin Care

I don't really think many people have a skin care ' wish list' I do, if I had unlimited money I would need to buy a separate house for everything because I'm that obsessed and that lame both at the same time. 
I'd love to have great skin, my face is freckly with big pores and blemishes constantly. 
I want to try a new moisturisers because i love using one, its a nice treat for the face but is also something so simple. 
i want to try the ' sanctuary illuminating moisture lotion ' 
this also has SPF 15 in it. that's always a bonus when the sun comes out ( in this country about once every four years ) I burn really easy because i have really fair skin so i try to look after my skin as best as possible, because i don't brown. i go red and then peel, and that is never good for the skin. 
I've only tried a few things from this brand, but have liked all the ones I've tried. I was a huge soap&glory fan last year, and still really do love some of their products and would always repurchase a certain few, but right now i really like this brand!

I've put the link in because if you check it out quickly, there is a great offer on!

As i said above i was a huge soap&glory fan.. but there is one product i haven't tried and cannot wait to get my hands on, its the ' soap&glory deep purifying hot cloth cleanser' I've heard great things about this!! never a bad thing, and really want to branch out and try different cleansers because there is no good just trying one.

I've inserted the link for this one too because its also on a promotion at the moment! 

I'm also going to mention the brand 'Freederm' because i really want to try something different from the brand i have tried a few things, they have been good but not that good that i constantly keep them in my skin care routine. But i haven't given up on the brand so if you've tried something great from the range then let me know so i can try something different!!
