Friday Favourite #5 Burt's Bees Beeswax and Banana Hand Creme

Todays favourite is back to being beauty related, Hurrah!

I picked up this jar of Burts Bees Beeswax and Banana Hand Creme back in a haul last October, put it in a drawer and promptly forgot all about it. Honestly this happens to me so often.

Anyhoo i dusted it off last weekend....

First off the scent this product has is quite strong, this doesn't bother me but if you've got a sensitive nose it could be a little much. The other thing about the scent is that its FULL ON foam Bananas. If your unsure what a foam banana is, its a kind of sweet shaped like a banana and it has the most synthetic banana sugary sweet chewy foam texture. They are awesome.

 

I love the scent, and i love this product i think it leaves my hands lovely and soft. It is really quite greasy so if your after a sinks in and your ready to go kind of product i'd maybe not suggest splurging on this as it is pricey for a hand cream, but if your after a good treatment for your hands or something to use with some cotton gloves this is definitely worth a look.

I keep it on my nightstand and apply it, liberally, before i go to bed, and in the morning i wake up to soft smooth hands.

Happy days :-)

Whats your favourite this week?

Payday Haul!

Here i am! Not lost at all...I'm just in from my little payday splurge and i thought I'd share the spoils with you all.

I didn't really mean to buy as much as this but I've been working extra hard lately so i deserved a wee treat.

I'll break it down. If you'd like to see and reviews on this stuff let me know :-)

Internationale had 3for2 on beauty UK so i got 

L-R : Girl gone wild, Sage green, Coral Shimmer

And i picked up the Miracle Cure in Boots as my nails are really dying right now :-(

What can i say about this other than my hair needs done. 

Never tried this before but it came in a big box so it must be good. (yes i know I'm weird!)

I'm having a bit of a food smells thing at the moment. The Burts Bees hand cream smells like foam bananas, Score! and the Jergens smells like Cherry Bakewells, double Score!. And i cant walk into one of those American Candy places without buying Cupcake Bites. Twizzlers are great to use as straws for water and i needed new mints for my bag and i like Altoids.

I got the Real Techniques Expert Face brush on recommendation from the #bbloggers chat. 

I picked up a bottle of PhotoReady as I really like it so i was curious to try it with the brush.

And i wanted new perfume. Cant afford my Victor and Rolf Flower bomb. 

Handily this one from Zara smells exactly the same, Happy Days!

The last 2 were complete spur of the moment grabs. The bat jumper spoke to me from the Internationale window and it was only a tenner, then when i was inside everything was buy one get one half price so i picked up the cute bag. 

So that's my payday haul. 

I would like to point out that i don't shop like this all the time, I'm not rolling in the pennies. But i do work hard for the money i get.

Hmmmm.... I'm going of on a tangent there, leave a comment below if you'd like a review on anything and make sure you subscribe to be updated when it goes up.

Right, I'm off for my dinner,x
