What's In It For Me ...? Product testing ♡

What's In It For Me .. ?


If you follow me on Instagram .. (if you don't - why not?! - kidding!) Then you will already have seen that the wonderful people at 'What's In It For Me' very kindly sent me a couple of their LUSH products to try and test to blog about.

I am such a huge fan of these, as they not only promote self-care and self-love but they are just really, REALLY good products. The packaging is classic and simple, but also kinda boujée in that the tubs both had the little lids on them that  you need to peel off before you get in to them - and I like that! It felt expensive and luxurious.

Right off the bat, I had already given the body scrub a wee go as I received a tester sized sample in my July Birchbox and I already knew I loved it! So I was so grateful to be sent the full-sized product!

What's In It For Me can be found online at Harvey Nichols and Fragrance Direct  .. So you know you are getting a luxury product when Harvey Nicks stock them! 

Here are my reviews...
Body Cream

 This tub contains 200g of product and I feel like a little goes a really long way with this! I have used it for a few days now and I love the thick, richness of the cream and it sinks in well to the skin. 
The scent of the cream is very floral which isn't my favourite but I know some people love floral scents. It contains jasmine oils and cedarwood oils which are anti-ageing and can fight against environmental factors which is perfect for everyday. These oils are also super nourishing for the skin, which we all need during the summer months as the heat can dry our skin out!

The ylang ylang and orchid scents are calming and relaxing and is meant to have positive effects on mood. These add to the luxuriousness of the product and make it feel more of a spa-esque experience for a fraction of the price. I am sold!
I feel like this will be one of those products my boyfriend ends up stealing as the smell is lush and it is a really thick consistency which I like in a cream. Winner.

Body Scrub

Now THIS stuff .. is what dreams are made of! It smells absolutely incredible! Like good-enough-to-eat incredible! I'm not sure if it is the rose or eucalyptus or the ginger but honestly, as soon as you open it, the smell hits you and it is really good. 

The What's In It For Me body scrub has a jelly/ putty like texture and the beads are much smaller and environment-friendly which is an added bonus! The small, softer bead leave your skin feeling soft and supple but without that dry feeling that some exfoliators leave afterwards. I find using a 50p-ish sized blob is a good amount for working into your skin as it lathers nicely so you don't need to use half the tub to get a good scrub going.

The rose and eucalyptus oils both contain antioxidants to fight signs of ageing and the ginger helps to tone the skin and give it an all-round detoxify.

Overall, I think I love this product the most as I love a good scrub and I am always exfoliating as I just love how it makes your skin feel! If you are like me - you NEED to try this.

Have I convinced you to try a new brand?! Let me know if I have!

Lots of love EP 💕

💖 January 2018 Favourite Products 💖 January, January... What a long month you were! I can honestly say I am glad to see the back of you (sorry any January babies!) and I always welcome a new month with open arms - new goals, fresh mindset - we are coming for you! Here are a few of the products I have been using religiously throughout January and some I really recommend for you guys to try! Sleek Cosmetics Blush Palette in Californ.I.A This palette is super affordable and it has a shimmer orangey toned shade and two matte shades, one being pinkier and one being more orange.  I tend to mix the two matte shades and apply them to the apples of my cheeks. It is suuuuper pigmented so you don't need much at all but it is lovely and soft and perfect for every day.  Sleek Cosmetics Contour Kit in Light I picked this up purely because of how dinky the packaging is and I thought it would be a perfect handbag product but I have used it pretty much eve...

❤ My Go-To Look ❤ Everybody has a go-to look that we reach for when we don't want to take any risks, we use products that we trust and recreate a look over and over knowing it is flattering and looks good for all occasions. I put a poll on my Instagram and this is the look you wanted to see... So here are my go-to products, why I choose them and how I create my go-to look which is.....  this! How to achieve:  Prep Simple Daily Moisturiser. I always always start with a good moisturiser. I like this one because it lasts for 12 hours and it sinks in to the skin and lasts all day. Kiehl's Reviving Daily Concentrate. My absolute go- to before make up! Smashbox Photo finish Primer. This is my current favourite primer. I used it a while ago and when I ran out I never replaced it but now I have it again I am in love all over again. I find the foundation really clings to it and lasts for hours. Face Estée Lauder Double Wear in Desert...

L'Oreal Pro Glow Foundation ♡

Testing: L'Oreal Infallible Pro Glow Foundation ♡ I LOVE a good foundation review... and this week I have been testing out the L'Oreal Paris Infallible Pro Glow Foundation. First of all... I have tried ALL of the L'Oreal Infallible range! I have used the 24 hour foundation (in the bottle) in 'Vanilla' for over a year and I really love the consistency and the finish as it is satin to demi-matte and lasts all day!  I have also tried the 24Hour Total Cover (the thicker one) and I am on the fence with it... It has SUPER thick coverage and is between a liquid and mousse consistency... so it depends how you like the feel of that on your skin as it is quite heavy...  But if you love a good coverage that literally doesn't budge - this may be worth a try for you! However, I am not a fan of the 24Hour Matte one (in the squeezy tube) as I feel it is too dry for my already dry-ish skin. I think I just prefer a glowy finish ...  And that is where Pro G...
