Sanctuary 5 minute thermal detox mask

I bought this the other day because I've noticed I have lots of under the skin spots that need to be banished from my face forever. I can't really afford to get a clarifying facial right now so I opted for an at-home treatment instead.

The mask is seriously relaxing and I'm getting sleepy just talking about it again. It heats up on contact with your skin so it relaxes you as it opens the pores to deep clean your skin. The charcoal and kaolin clay draw out any impurities and the essential oil myrrh soothes the skin. You're advised to use this mask twice weekly but I can't stop using it! If I've had a stressful day at work (every day) out comes the mask.

I've been using it for about a week and a half now and I've noticed the little blighters on my forehead are coming to the surface, finally.

For £10.20 I would recommend this mask for it's purifying and detoxifying qualities. Love it!

Clinique Chubby Sticks

I've been intrigued by this product for quite some time now but have never got round to actually buying it, but after being tempted by the bonus time gift at Boots, I finally bought one, OK maybe two.

I have to say I'm now hooked on these gorgeous lip crayons, they give so much colour but it's not too strong. It's perfect for me because I love a gloss that has bold colour, without looking dry and crusty (which I find happens with most lipsticks).

The chubby sticks have shea butter in them so they're really moisturising for the lips, perfect for all year round. It would be a bonus for them to have an added SPF but you can't win 'em all. Overall a great product that I'm pretty hooked on. I have it in oversized orange and wopping watermelon, which is my fave, but there are SO many other colours to choice from, from purples to nudes to cherry reds, you will find a colour to suit your skintone. For £16 I think they're a bit of a bargain. I think this is perfect for a bride who doesn't want the sticky residue left over from a gloss but still wants a strong wash of colour on the lips.

Here's a little tip for you when trying to find the right lip colour for you... Put the tester colour on your fingertip, this is the place that is most like your natural lip colour. Hold your finger up against your face. If you look washed out its a no no!

Brazilian Keratin Therapy Shampoo & Conditioner

When I was a kid, I was the one with the Tina Turner 'fro, there was always one and unfortunately it was me. It was the time before straighteners, so you can imagine my distress when trying to calm the frizz and flyaways circa 1999. All we had was bloody crimpers! *shocking*

What I'm trying to get at is because of this distress early on in my life, I'm always on the hunt for new ways to tame my do. The latest find is by Organix - Brazilian Keratin Therapy. This wasn't overly expensive at £6.99 a bottle and it's really delivered amazing results. After one use my hair feels really sleek and smells gorgeous. It has coconut oil in it to nourish the hair so this gives off an amazing smell. It's also rich in keratin proteins to strengthen the hair, along with avocado oil to smooth the cuticle for added shine. The packaging doesn't look too thrilling but trust me, all the good stuff is inside! I would highly recommend this to any beauties with curly, wavy, frizzy hair or just in need of a good strengthening treatment. I got it from boots, but you have to search for it because the poor little devils are on the bottom shelf. Boo!
