June empties

7 Jul

At the risk of this turning into an Empties blog (I promise there’s some mascara reviews coming up!), here’s June’s…

Naked detox peppermint & sorrel leaf balancing shampoo – Ok first I have to tell you that this shampoo stinks. It really does. It smells like wet leaves and every time you move your head you get a whiff of it and it’s kind of gross. Unless you like the smell of wet plants. I bought it because I wanted to go sulphate-free, with regards to shampoo, for various reasons which I’ll explain in another post. This was on sale quite cheaply and so I bought it. It’s a good shampoo and really cleans your hair and leaves it shiny which impressed me and far outweighed the stink. I have however purchased some different Naked shampoos to use now this is finished.

No7 protect & perfect intense beauty serum – I have some weird lines on my décolletage which I think may be sun damage mixed with a bit of dehydration. I heard this may be good for sun damage so I dug out my teeny sample and started to use it. It’s a 5ml tube and it lasted me for EIGHT WEEKS! Madness. I also think I have seen some improvement in the lines so I purchased the bigger size of the original serum.

Dead Sea Spa Magik super night cream – without banging on about my dry sensitive skin too much… I bought this when I really needed some help and I think it did. It’s very rich and thick but it sinks in pretty quickly. I haven’t repurchased this as I think I want to try and step it up a notch now my skin isn’t so sensitive. Any recommendations of a good night cream that isn’t too harsh would be gratefully received!
