EPIC EMPTIES.....part 2!

I really need to get my act together or my empties sack will be full again before I post this lot (mentally slapping self!)

Finally 2nd part, face!!


Montagne Jeunesse (not a clue how you pronounce!!) face masks average 15g of produce per sachet, depending on which one you pick up. I got a selection while they where on 2 for £3 in Bodycare.
These two are white and orange chocolate ones. Me an my middle monkey do "Facial Fridays" when I'm off on a Friday night (see my instagram for embarrassing evidence) occasionally depending on my shifts it is delayed to "slap it on Saturday". These 2 masks give you an urge to eat you own face! DON'T an not just because its freakish and Hannibal Lecter like but because as lovely as these masks smell the taste baaaaad!! I swear any tasting was done accidentally for the purpose if giving you a fully accurate blog!! To be honest I didn't have me contacts in an managed to cover both our faces and most of the bathroom in it!! Any way I'm not sure if these masks do anything life changing, but they are good for "having to relax" for the allotted time and great fun for me an the mini makeup addicts or friends etc.
Are they likely to become my "go to" product? Do people have a "go to face mask"? well I don't buy other ones so I guess so.
Would I buy it again? Definitely.
Are they good value? Yes.


Boots Essentials Cucumber Facial Wash. 150mls £1.50 from Boots (obviously) I love cucumbery stuff for my face, I don't exactly know why. It always seems fresh and clean. This wash is for all skin types. I use quite a full on exfoliation face scrub because of my dry skin and this for in between washes. It soft and gentle but leaves me feeling really clean. I do use and like other face washes but this is super cheap and easily available.
Is it likely to become my "go to" product? One of them, yes
Would I buy it again? Definitely.
Is it good value? Yes.

Bodycare make up remover wipes.25 wipes and I'm 99% sure i paid less than £2 for these on BOGOF. 
In all honesty I bought them by mistake. I ducked in to get some sticky baby finger wipes and they where in the 1st basket by the door. They do exactly what they say on the packet but I wouldn't use them on sensitive skin even my "ole leather hide" found the a little harsh after a while but as a stand by they are quite good as it took me a while to use 2 packets and they didn't dry out even being open for about 3 weeks! Bargain or not they cant replace my Neva cleansing wipes!
Are they likely to become my "go to" product? No
Would I buy it again?Hummm never say never with these I think.
Are they good value? Yes

 Purederm Deep Cleansing Nose Strips.
6 strips for £2 in B&M or Bodycare maybe Home Bargains...one of the discount stores. 
I don't get a huge amount of black heads round my nose, possibly because I use these or similar?? I've always been really conscience of blackheads and spots round my nose an have tried main brands. Purederm are no less effective than more expensive equivalents. When taking these off ALWAYS wet them! Next time some one is at the door an you think "I'll just whip it off quick" don't!! make them wait or just open the door!! trust me its never actually gonna be Chris Hemsworth and not anyone worth losing the top 4 layers of skin on you nose for!! There is a scarey / satisfying amount of unpleasantness plucked from my pores on removal...not sure if thats good or bad but it justifies me using them!
Are they likely to become my "go to" product? Probably
Would I buy it again? Yes
Are they good value? Yes

 Asda Skinsystem Night Cream
50ml £1.99 from ASDA. I mostly Use a lot of night creams for moisturiser. As Ive said many many many times I have really dry skin and I work nights so any "go to bed " moisturiser need to be worth its stuff as it goes on about 10am and them I'm up for the school run by 2.30pm so I need as much hydration and as concentration as possible. I have regularly gone to be with Vaseline smeared on my face for the very dry patches. I was going to say for it price this is a good product but bugger the price, at £10 a tub this would be a good product! My skin feels smooth, silky soft and well nourished when Ive used this. Its not at all greasy and soaks in well so no mush on the pillow case! Oh an it smells lovely! sweet and flowery but not to strong.
Is it likely to become my "go to" product? Probably

For some reason there was a packet of my contact lenses in the bag too. Not sure why or how they ended up in there!?!? but yes they are awesome cos they let me seeeeee! :op

Thanks for reading!

  1. I love nose strips! I am currently using Boots own Which hazel ones which work wonders and are extremely sticky! But the which hazel kinda makes it feel nicer! And probably does some magic I am unaware of! x
