Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

Oh hey there!

I haven't done this in a while, in fact, this is my first blog post of 2014 written on the 8th March, oops! Considering it was one of my new years resolutions to blog It's not been the best start has it.

But anyway I'm back to tell you about something I've been loving recently - the new Micellar cleansing water from Garnier.
I never really got into the 'Bioderma' craze a year or so ago, a glorified water I had to pay through the nose for didn't really appeal to me at the time and so I continued with my other cleansers I was happy enough using.

(Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water - £4.99)

 That was until this particular Garnier offering caught my eye as I was browsing Superdrug back in December. Firstly the bottle is a ginormous 400 ML and for just £4.99 it claims to equate to 200 uses and I would agree with this I have been using the same bottle daily since late December and I'm only now nearing the bottom.

The micellar water is fragrance free, hypoallergenic and suitable for 'even sensitive skin' all things that appeal to me in skincare as I do suffer from sensitive skin from time to time.

 I have to say that after using this for 3 months now this is one of the most gentle feeling cleansers I have ever used on my skin, it hasn't broke me out at all and It is even gentle on the eyes (providing you don't use loads in that area) and it removes make up with minimal effort.

I would definitely recommend this product for anyone looking for something new in their skincare routine, its affordable and actually works.

Have you tried this product yet?

 

Christmas Day 2013

Merry Christmas, everyone!

So its boxing day, the only day of the year its ever fully acceptable to stay in pyjamas and do nothing but eat... also known as my favourite day of the year!

 I have had a lovely couple of days spent at home with family, watching movies, playing games and eating everything in sight.

 This Christmas I definitely feel a lot more content with life than I have done in a long, long time and it has made me realise and appreciate everything I have and the amazing, supportive family and friends I have around me.

I hope everybody reading this has had and will continue to have a wonderful Christmastime and I hope you have all eaten yourselves into a chocolate induced coma. I actually can't believe it's almost all over for another year and in a week we will all be waving a last goodbye to 2013! Boo!

Festive lounge, its good to be home! 

Snowman hairband!

Delicious Christmas lunch!

Champers for breakfast.

Sister, Sister.

The Christmas tag!!

    

Like most people I'm sure, Christmas is my absolute favourite time of the year. I think because I live far away from home its extra exciting just to be able to go home for a few weeks and spend time with my family and friends. I thought I would do the Christmas tag today as I am feeling that extra bit festive!

1. Whats Your Favorite Holiday Movie? 

Oh I have so many- The Grinch, Love actually, Elf. I think my favourite Christmas film of all time has to be 'The Santa clause' with Tim Allen. My sister and I have watched this film every year since we were tiny and still love it now. It just brings back really happy memories for me and it is definitely a Christmas tradition in our house.

  2. What Are Your Favorite Christmas Colours?

I think it would be the classics red, green, gold and silver.

3. Do You Like To Stay in Your PJ's Or Dress Up For Christmas? 

Dress up. I do a lot of family visiting on Christmas day so I do have to get out of the onesie for a bit and into something relatively fancy. I don't actually mind, I really enjoy getting all dressed up for Christmas and buying a new lovely outfit for the day!

 4. If You Could Only Buy One Person a Present This Year Who Would It Be?

Probably my mum, or a big joint one for everyone in my family, if I were allowed to cheat.

5. Do You Open Your Presents Christmas Eve Or Christmas Morning? 

Christmas morning!! Opening your presents on Christmas eve is just plain wrong!

6. Have You Ever Built a Ginger Bread House? 

 No, I really don't think I have the patience to deal with something so fiddly.

7. What Do You Like To Do On Your Christmas Break? 

 I don't have much of a Christmas break this year as I'm staying in Carlisle (where i go to uni) working until the 22nd and then travelling home that evening, however, I am so looking forward to just spending time at home with my family and doing festive things and just chilling out, I haven't actually been home in over 3 months!

8. Any Christmas Wishes?

  Just to have a nice, peaceful, happy Christmas and for everyone around me to have the same and get everything they asked for.

9. Favorite Christmas Smell?

Anything spicy, cinnamon and apple scents and of course, Christmas lunch cooking!  

10. Favorite Christmas Meal Or Treat?

Christmas lunch! Chocolate! and the cheese board and crackers... ohh the cheese board <3
