The Body Shop Spiced Vanilla

 

Products I have used: Bubble Bath, Shower Gel, Body Butter, Lip Balm, Hand Cream and Scented Candle. I must say I love vanilla scent. It's probably my favourite in a winter when it comes to body care. From the range I really liked Bubble Bath, Body Butter and Hand Cream. Body Butter and Hand Cream last for a really long time and even tho The Body Shop has got a massive range of body butters we know that some of them don't stay for to long. This range is more about scent than body care as I haven't noticed any big change when it comes to my skin. But I wasn't buying it for care I was more buying it for the scent. Scented candle does leave vanilla aroma but it is not to much so won't give you a headache. Shower Gel was just an ordinary one I have to say. Used with other stuff from the range was building up the vanilla smell but used on it's own was disappearing quite fast.  I also enjoyed Lip Balm from the range. The most disappointing product? Probably Shower Gel.

Carmex Cherry Moisturising Lip Balm

I went through a lot of lip balms in my life really as I have got dry lips all the time. This is the one I stick to and I really love. Comes in a tube (probably more hygienic) and a small pot (on picture). In four different flavours (Original, Cherry, Mint and Strawberry). Has got SPF 15 protection. I think it's the best lip balm I ever used (so far I didn't come accross better one). It just does what it's says. And the price is amazing. You can afford all the flavours if you want. The Cherry flavour is clear tho,so it won't give you any colour.

VIE Radiance Perfection Foundation and Blush Gloss

Radiance Perfection Hydrating Foundation. Light foundation which leaves skin hydrated and glow. I would say medium coverage. Doesn't stay on my combination skin and needs retouching after 2 to 3 hours. Shouldn't really use anything radiance on my combination skin (with tendency to glow anyway) but I got it as a gift. For me average foundation with quite a bit of a price £15. In 4 different shades. I use Soft Beige one which is perfect for my skin.

Blush Gloss. Transforming Lip & Cheek Tint. Clever product the more you put on, the deepest colour you will get (from light pink to medium red). I use it only for lips as I have got combination skin so don't wont anything glow on my already glowy skin :-).
