The Body Shop Almond Milk & Honey Body Lotion

 

Recently I’ve been using this body lotion from The Body Shop. It uses ingredients almond milk and honey, that give off a beautiful subtle fragrance. I found a little goes along way with the product, and the scent lingers on. This particular range is aimed at sensitive skin which really appealed to me. The product sinks in lovely which some lotions don’t do as well. My skin feels soft after each use.

On the back of the packaging, it mentions that community trade shea butter is used. It also states that it’s vegetarian and cruelty-free although the leaping bunny logo isn’t shown. Make sure you check out the links to learn more. This item retails at £8.50 for 200ml. I would recommend this product, particularly for those with sensitive skin.

Superdrug Simply Pure Calming Cleanser

I’ve been using this cleanser for about a month so I thought it was about time I did a review of it. My normal go-to cleanser is by Simple because it’s so gentle on the skin, but it’s not cruelty-free unfortunately. So with that thought I wanted to give the Superdrug Simply Pure one a go which features the leaping bunny logo.

“Developed for sensitive skin, Simply Pure products are mild, gentle and 100% fragrance free.” I would agree with this statement on the Superdrug website, the cleanser is mild and gentle on the skin. It removes make-up well and overall I’m pleased with the results.

I can see myself repurchasing, and switching from the Simple brand to this Superdrug own brand. It retails at £2.99 for 200ml but there’s nearly always an offer on. There are other things in the range such as serums, toner, face wash, etc. Click here to view the range.

Superdrug Vitamin E Day Cream

Today I’m going to be reviewing a day cream that I purchased and have been testing out in the last month. I went with the Superdrug Vitamin E brand because they have a budget friendly range and all the Superdrug own brands are cruelty-free and have the leaping bunny logo. This item is also vegan. The Vitamin E range often have an offer of buy one get one half price and I bought two of this product, one for my mum and myself. The original price for one day cream is £2.99 for 100ml which is still affordable. There are a few other bits in the line that I might like to try as well such as the face wipes and the night cream.

I have been using this day cream often since I bought it. One of the reasons I was attracted to the product was because it has a SPF15, and is perfect to apply onto the face in spring and summer. A little product goes along way so I think the tub will last me a very long time. The cream is a white in colour but sinks into the skin quickly and with no trace afterwards. It works well with my sensitive skin, and I’ve seen a noticeable improvement after frequent use. The fragrance can be described as a light floral scent which is acceptable. My mum recommends this product too after giving it to her as a gift. Buy online here.

If you are after a new day cream, I would suggest this one to my blog readers!
