Blistex Silk & Shine

This is a TOTALLY amazing lipgloss and I can’t recommend it highly enough. Weirdly, I was very doubtful about it at first, mainly because I really don’t like the Blistex name as it makes me feel uncomfortable – well, more uncomfortable than usual, anyway!

But actually it’s brilliant – it softens the lips perfectly and makes them glisten if you wear it on its own. Even more importantly, it adds that special pizzazz to absolutely any lipstick you’re wearing, plus you can use it any time to touch up your lips. I’m buying more of this for sure. Result!

Sanex Sensitive Shower Cream

I’ve been using Sanex shower cream for a while now and though I use other shower creams as well, I always tend to come back to it – mainly because it’s the product that is least likely to give me a break-out. It’s not hugely exciting but it does the trick and it certainly feels very moisturising and soothing, which is brilliant for me.

The bottle I buy is a lot whiter than this but I couldn’t find its picture so I’m afraid the above is the only one I could find. Okay, it’s never going to set the world on fire, but it’s brilliant at calming my skin down!
