Hemp Hand Protector - The Body Shop

The Body Shop

Hemp Hand Cream - £3.50

Since blogging I have discovered more and more incredible products from The Body Shop, I was always a fan but now their products feature heavily in my routines.

I was recently sent the Hemp Hand Protector and couldn't wait to try it out, this is The Body Shops best selling hand cream, I had heard other people really rate this hand cream so I had high hopes. What you initially notice about this product is the packaging, it's in a foil type tube which I quite like, it's a little like the Cath Kidson hand creams you can pick up. It's easy to apply and stays clean which is another thing I really like, nothing worse than when it clogs up around the top!

The actual hand cream itself it extremely creamy and not at all runny, I really enjoy this thick texture as you can really work it into your hands and any particular dry patches. The reason it works so well is because it contains hemp seed oil, my skin absolutely loves this oil, it sinks right in leaving my hands feeling supple and soft.

The smell is a little unusually, it's not unpleasing, but actually quite unscented. I have used this product for the last week now and I have noticed hands are softer and less hard around the nail.

Overall I would absolutely recommend this hand cream, I would go as far to say its probably one of the best hand creams I have ever used. Please check it out on The Body Shops website, its currently on offer for an amazing £3.50.

YSL Rouge Pure Shine Lipstick

YSL is one of my favourite luxury brands, I am such a huge fan of the packaging and just adore the products. I was in my local boots recently and thought I would try a new spring shade, after all... It is meant to be spring!

I was drawn to a light pinky shade - Pure Shine 16. This shiny lipstick has exceptional gliding properties illuminates the lips with sparkling, transparent colours. I really enjoy a full coverage lipstick, but I also love how lightweight this coverage is. The exclusive long golden cap opens in a 'click' to reveal a delightful, hydrating texture that reshapes the lips while ensuring comfort and protection, it also have SPF 15.

In terms of staying power, this is a winner! my lips felt moisturised all day and didn't dry at all. The price tags on these type of products are high, this was £22, which I know is a lot of money, but as a gift or even just to treat yourself its money well spent!

Let me know if you have tried any new YSL products recently.
