St Ives Blemish Fighting Apricot Scrub


Last month i made a discovery, i know i'm probably late to the party but i am now officially obsessed with the scrubs from St Ives. I had heard so much about them through blogs and social media etc, so when i ran out of my regular face scrub last month i decided to pick one up.

I went for the blemish fighting scrub as i do tend to break out between my eyebrows and slightly onto my forehead so i love anything that helps to prevent that from happening, i also love a grainy scrub so this one seemed to fit the bill.

The first thing i noticed was the smell, it smells like apricots funnily enough but not in a synthetic way which really puts me off some skincare, especially being on my face. The grains are enough to feel like you have really scrubbed off any dead skin but not rough enough to hurt or make me look like i have been sunburned (you may laugh but this has definitely happened). 

Exfoliating my skin is probably one of my favourite parts of my skincare regime and this scrub has become a firm favourite, not only does it do absolutely everything you require from a face scrub but the price point makes it an absolute steal. at £4.19 who could say no? Grab yours HERE and let me know what you think. xx

Elemis Freshskin Skin Glow Exfoliating Face Wash

When it comes to cleansing in the morning i do love a gel texture, i'm not really sure why i think because it's quite light and fresh so tends to wake me up a bit more, i also don't need anything as rich in the morning as i'm not taking any makeup off. As i am also a massive fan of a good exfoliator as well if i can combine the two......winner!

This one from Elemis Freshskin combines everything i love to use in my morning cleansing routine, it has a soft fruity scent which i put down to the cherry powder, mandarin and jojoba beads, so as it glides over my face i am slightly tempted to lick it (not recommended).

Just a pea sized amount of this cleanses my whole face so no need to go squeezing out half of the tube to feel any sort of effect and after your skin feels so soft and radiant which in my eyes is everything i want from a good face wash.

This is a steal at £13 and you can check it out HERE
