Empties

I can't remember ever having done an empties post before. If I have, it must have been a very long time ago. Here are my recently used up products:


Umberto Giannini Glam Hair Grunge Glamour Tousled Salt Spray - £6 
I think I received this spray in a beauty box a couple of months ago and since then I've been using it every single morning. This salt spray gives my hair such a lovely voluminous texture without leaving it sticky or heavy. This big bottle lasted me about two months with daily use. I will definitely get some more!

Tend Skin The Skin Care Solution For Unsightly Razor Bumps, Ingrown Hair And Razor Burns - £12
I bought this solution from Amazon a year ago as I was experiencing sore, red skin every time I shaved my legs. I read so many good reviews and thought I'd try it out. I have to admit, it really does work! It reduces the appearance of red razor bumps within hours and leaves skin soft and smooth. It also prevents ingrown hairs. This product is truly a miracle. I am testing out some other brands at the moment but I'm quite tempted to get a second bottle of Tend Skin!

Mer & Mistral Shower Gel sample bottle 
I received this tiny shower gel in the L'Occitane edition of My Little Box and to be honest I have not been very impressed. It does cleanse the skin but I had to use a lot of product to get a nice lather! Sadly, it left my skin dry and flaky and I had to use my moisturiser immediately afterwards. I wouldn't buy this at £12 a bottle. 

MONUSpa Warming Ginger Body Oil sample bottle
We don't have a bath in our flat but this Warming Body Oil luckily also works perfectly under the shower! I only needed a small amount of oil rubbed into my skin just before rinsing. The oil instantly emulsified into a milk and left my skin nourished with no oily residue. This tiny bottle lasted me ages! I would love to try this in a bath too.


Sally Hansen Maximum Growth Cuticle & Nail Moisture Treatment Pen - £6
I have been using these pens for years now. I try out other brands every now and then but I always come back to this product! I get very dry hands. Rough, breaking and peeling cuticles are my biggest problems during cold weather. This Sally Hansen cuticle pen nourishes my dry cuticles and nails instantly. It contains Vitamins A, C, E, Pro-vitamin B5 and Aloe, which all deeply hydrate, nourish, moisturise and support nail growth. This pen has a really soft brush which makes it easy to apply. 

Max Factor Masterpiece Mascara - £9.99
This mascara is one of my all time favourites! It separates my lashes well, doesn't leave them clumpy, gives lash volume and lasts a long time. I have repurchased this mascara so many times that I have lost count. I'm disappointed that I've run out of this product but at the same time I now have the chance to test out some other mascaras I've recently bought or received from beauty boxes.

Esimene trimester ehk esimesed kolm kuud \\ beebi number 2

Tere blogi, Jah, üllatus, üllatus, ma olen rase! Esimene trimester on läbi ja teen küsimused-vastused varjandis blogipostituse. Ausalt öeldes ei olnud mul just kõige kergem algus- jõetus, väsimus, iiveldamine ja oksendamine kestsid 6. nädalast kuni 13. nädalani. Ei tuleks vist eriti huvitav postitus, kui ma peaks kirjutama, kuidas ma kõik need nädalad voodis veetsin ja mitu korda päevas vetsupotti kallistasin, nii siis vastan pigem mõnedele esimese trimestriga seotud küsimustele.   Kuidas sa avastasid, et sa oled rase ja kuidas sa Tristanile ütlesid? Ühel reede hommikul ärkasin varem, et trenni teha. Jooksin jooksulindi peal umbes 30 minutit ja terve selle aja tundsin end imelikult. Umbes 5 minutit enne jooksmise lõppu tuli mul üles mega suur röhitsus ja natuke maomahla. See tunne oli nii tuttav! Tagasi tuppa tulles tegin veel Tristanile nalja, et olen vist rase. Terveks päevaks jäi see mõte mind kummitama ja ma ütlesin Tristanile, et peaks igaks juhuks rasedustesti tegema. Jä...

Minu lemmikud tooted - Austraalia eri

Tere blogi, vahelduseks kõigile nendele raseduse postitustele panin kokku väikse listi oma viimase aja lemmikutest toodetest. Olen eelistanud niinimetatud kodumaist, ehk siis kõik tooted on Austraalias tehtud-toodetud-valmistatud.   asap Revitalising Bodyscrub   Paar kuud tagasi otsisin endale uut kehakoorijat ja komistasin juhuslikult sellise brändi otsa nagu asap . Mulle meeldis just see, et nende tooted on looduslikud, vegan ja valmistatud siin Austraalias. Pudel on hea suurusega (200 ml) ja maksab 50 dollarit (umbes 30 eurot). See kehakoorija sisaldab ka minu lemmikut glükoolhapet, mis on tugev antioksüdant, põletikuvastase toimega, nahka niisutav ja stimuleerib kollageeni loomist. Kasutan suhteliselt kokkuhoidlikult - umbes vutimuna suurune kogus ja sellest piisab täiesti käia üle kohad, mis enim muret teevad. Olen kasutanud seda kehakoorijat kaks korda nädalas. Hõõrun õrnalt umbes paar minutit ja loputan siis duši all maha. Nahk on pärast mega pehme ja mina nägin mu...

Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide - Starting again

The last time I posted about my workout regime was in November last year when I started the Kayla Itsines BBG healthy eating plan and 12 week workout sessions. I think I got up to week 4 before I lost my motivation because of illness and Christmas. My friend Marianne and I started BBG again on the 5th of January with thousands of other girls and joined #thekaylamovement and #kaylasarmy to share our journey along this painful but exciting path.  You can read my first post about the BBG programme here as I am explaining a bit more on how I 'found' Kayla and how the training works.  I have done BBG for 5 weeks now (the first 2 weeks we did pre-training) and I'm feeling quite positive. I've not seen much progress myself - I still have my weak areas like tummy, bum and thighs. I do feel much stronger though! I'm doing all of the workouts properly, I have strength in my legs and arms - it is quite easy to do 10 push ups and continue with triceps and mountain clim...
