Roundup

Snowy Streets / The First Cut / TAKK Coffee House / Vegan Pizza Rolls / Tea & Blogging / Wet n Wild / Hubby & Me / Cosmo Beauty / Mini Day 

This has been a somewhat quiet week, I’ve been trying to take it easy. It started off with the crazy snowfall and after selling our beloved 4×4 before Christmas we were snowed in the house for a few days. It was nice to take some time out & have an excuse with the snow. This past year I’ve found it so hard to relax and stop my mind working overtime worrying and trying to control every aspect of my life. I’m trying to let go a little. It’s hard.

When the snow melted we popped into Manchester as I needed to pick up a dress from COS as I’m a Bridesmaid at my best friends wedding in March. So we did that & as we were in the city we visited the Manchester Gallery to see The First Cut Paper Exhibition,  Which was really good. We also found a lovely new coffee-house in Manchester – it has a Icelandic vibe and its very inviting and friendly Its called TAKK. So if you’re in the Northern Quarter pop in and support them.

My hubby loves cars and he has owned a few old minis over the years & we went to a Mini day in Stafford which was held in doors thank god, as the weather was horrendous. It was fun to see all the cool Mini’s some people have spent alot of time & money on them and they look fab. I was’t looking forward to it but it turned into a really lovely day.

I hope you all had a relaxing week. February is shaping up to be a busy month for me. Lots of things to organise and get ready for my friend’s wedding. So it’s exciting.

What’s In My Shower

- Vicki 8 Comments

I have seen this tag going about the blogging sphere and in particular on The Sunday Girl Blog and I thought I would show you whats lurking in my shower. Nothing too exciting, but we all like to have a nosey right?!

Whats In My Shower

CHANEL MOUSSE DOUCEUR Rinse-off Foaming Mousse Cleanser Balance + Anti-Pollution I’ve repurchased this a few times and that says a lot for me as I am always on to the next when something runs out. This is a hefty tube of cleanser it lasts the longest time. It normally lasts me around 3 months. I tend to use it in the morning. It’s like my little piece of luxury in the morning. There isn’t too must to say apart from I really like how this is gentle on my skin and leaves it feeling ready and fresh for the day. This cleanser is £29.00 for 150ml & I purchase mine from House of Fraser

Nivea Happy Time Shower Cream shower gel / body wash is something I never repurchase. I head for what ever is on offer. This Nivea one smells really citrus and fresh. I really like it. It’s on offer in Superdrug for 98p. It is very hydrating and leaves my skin feeling soft and smelling lovely.

Naked Bounce Curl Defining Shampoo & Conditioner* I have done a full review of this here if you’d like to read it. I like these as I wear my hair natural most days & that for me is wavy. These give my wavy hair a little extra help and leaves my hair looking healthy and bouncy.

Whats in my showerSuperdrug Vitamin  E Exfoliating Body Scrub  I’m a massive fan of exfoliation my legs. I don’t really tan so it’s not for that but I just like to get the blood flowing to them in the morning, wake them up and I like to get rid of all the dead skin. This utter bargain from Superdrug has become my favourite exfoliator. Its bursting with exfoliants and you get a great scrub for your money. I have stocked up on a fair few tubes. I urge you o give this a go. It doesn’t have a yummy scent like Soap and Glory but it is one hell of a good scrub. Its Superdrug’s own brand it’s £1.50 for 100ml

No7 Beautiful Skin Radiance Exfoliator this is just OK, If I’m honest I’m trying to use this up, but It is taking forever. I use a tiny bit once a week, mostly around my mouth and chin but it’s not the best product I’ve used. I picked it up with a No7 Voucher and wouldn’t buy it again. If the Boots search option worked on their site I would be able to link to the product. But it doesn’t (Shock Horror). But if you’re interested you can pick this up from No7 Counters for £8.00
