Wild Ferns and Pecksniff's - Manuka honey and mandarin

I am loving these 2 products at the moment - Pecksniff's Hand Wash and Wild Ferns Manuka Honey Facial Scrub.



  First I will talk about Wild Ferns Facial Scrub

This is a gentle scrub containing pure active Manuka honey. Manuka is a flowering tea tree native to New Zealand. The honey that is collected from these flowers has long been renowned for its remarkable beneficial properties - antibacterial properties including an enzyme that produces hydrogen peroxide, which is a proven antiseptic. It is extremely rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals and has the outstanding ability to nourish, soothe and heal sensitive skin. Manuka honey also contains active antioxidants that neutralise free radicals which are responsible for skin cell damage. Manuka honey assists in the growth of new cell and tissue regeneration.

I was using L'Oreal Paris Dermo Expertise Clean Wash before but as I had run out I thought I would try something different. I was looking around Amazon and noticed Wild Fern and their amazing Manuka honey skin care products. I have heard so many good things about Manuka honey so I thought I'd order something.

I paid £11 for 100ml. It is not the real price, as I was looking around some New Zealand online shops and the face scrub itself costs around £5. If ordered from overseas and including all postage & tax, it would probably come to this full amount I paid. I just wanted to get it quickly - it arrived in 2 days.

I have used it 3 times now (I am using it twice a week) and I can say it is ideal for my skin. I have quite a mixed skin type - some parts of my face are oily and some extremely dry, which sometimes can make my skin flakey and cracked. This scrub is opening my pores and cleaning them thoroughly, removing oil deposits and helping to prevent pimples. It makes my skin's surface silky smooth and soft. 

A very good thing about this product is that you don't need much, a little drop is enough to do the work.


 

 




The other cleansing product I bought was Pecksniff's hand wash. I didn't think that it would surprise me that much. All other soaps leave my hands dry after washing (meaning I have to cream them often) but this one here is amazing! It leaves my hands moisturised, soft and delicately fragranced. Gentle and effective! I bought it from TKMaxx for £5.

The Body Shop Manchester Arndale Bloggers Event

I've been blogging for almost two years now but I'd still consider myself a newbie in the blogging world. On Thursday I had the chance to go to my first bloggers event at The Body Shop in Manchester to celebrate the release of an amazing new range on the 5th of May, including new bronzing items and a couple of vitamin C products! I was wearing my butterfly bow-tie brooch to the event and styled it with a white short sleeved shirt. It was a closed door event, so it was a good opportunity to browse all of the products and explore the new ones thoroughly! The event started at 8pm and I was one of the first ones to arrive. We were welcomed with milkshakes, fruit cocktails and lemonade. I went for water - shy and modest! There was also a white chocolate fountain and strawberries we had the chance to enjoy. The event was carried out by Fiona - she is a skin expert at the Manchester store. Everyone was able to get personal skin consult...

OOTD - The sun has come out!

It has been such a long time since my last fashion post, I've been missing them so much! The second the sun came out, Tristan and I went to the canal and took a few pictures. I think it is still too early for sunglasses but a light jacket is okay when you wear a jumper underneath (Primark) and a cosy leopard print scarf (Linea Cashmink) around your neck.  My black Veromoda jacket and shoes are both from Best Secret. You'll all know by now how much I've been raving about it. I think it is an amazing place for online shopping. I love the copper detailing and the simple look on my jacket, plus it's super lightweight. My trainers are by Puma & Alexander McQueen (click here to read my previous post). I also just noticed that I don't have any good shots of my Michael Kors bag, which I absolutely adore by the way! I'm sure everybody knows how beautiful these bags are so I think this will do for now. The bag and scarf were both Christmas presents fr...

Lilla Rose Flexi Clips

  Today I want to talk a bit about my hair and my recent purchase from a company called Lilla Rose . Lilla Rose is a unique hair and jewellery accessory company from the US. They have many different hair items but I was more interested in their beautiful and well-known Flexi Clip. I got myself two of these - Autumn's Delight in size small and Festive Leaf in extra small. Before ordering I made sure of which size would fit best for my flat and thin hair.       Both of my Flexi Clips look stunning. The beaded wire is quite bendable but strong, the sliding pin is adjustable and they feel high-quality. I chose mine in a copper/rust shade but there are also silver and gold shades and so many different styles and colours available. As I recently cut my long hair short, I don't have many options with styling. I usually just wear my hair in a ponytail or a half ponytail. Autumn's Delight fits all my hair between the clip and Festive Leaf is perfect for a smal...
