February Empties ♡

Hello there! So I've used up some products over the space of about 6 - 8 weeks, so these products aren't just from February but I thought I would show you what I've used up because I like reading empties posts as they provide a good insight on what a product is like after using it for a long time.

1. SPAtopia Argan Oil Body Butter

I don't know where this product is from as I was given it for my birthday in November so it has lasted me since then and I still have a tiny bit left, but I really love this product. It's a really thick and creamy texture, just like butter haha, and I like the smell of argan oil and it makes my pyjamas smell of argan oil which is lovely. I use a lot of this because I love it so much, I'm not sure if I'll buy it again because I don't think it's cheap but if it wasn't too expensive I would definitely buy this :)

2. Love Hearts Strawberry Cream Perfume

Another product given to me for my birthday, I really love this perfume and it was quite cheap too as I know where it was from. It was from the Perfume shop for £3.99 and it comes with a body lotion too, I'm not sure if it's still in stock though. Anyway, I really like this perfume because it smells really sweet like artificially sweet but not disgustingly artificially sweet if you understand what I'm saying. I don't think it's for everybody but whenever I wear it I get complimented by someone about it so it can't be too bad :)

3. Garnier Cleansing Lotion

I think I bought this from Savers so it wasn't expensive, I generally like Garnier products, I think they're basic and affordable and that's exactly what this product was. Nothing special but it did the job and I think I got my money worth as I believe it was under £3, not sure if I'd buy it again but if it was the same price I probably would just because it does the job.

4. Garnier Synergie Pure Deep Pore Wash

I'm not sure if this product is still being made because my Mum gave it to me years ago when my skin was too sensitive for it and it used to make my face go all red, then I started using it again this year because I've gotten into face masks but I haven't got any face masks and this exfoliates and makes my skin feel like I've had a face mask on so it's pretty close. It has little microbeads in which is good however I wish it had bigger ones in to exfoliate the skin better, it doesn't smell of anything but it does the job quite well. I use this product 2 -3 times per week. I would repurchase it if I couldn't get my hands on some face masks because as I said before Garnier isn't too expensive and it does the job.

5. Boots Cucumber Skin Freshener (toner)

I think I've used all of the Boots Cucumber skin care and honestly I like them all, I am not sure about the price as I usually buy it off my Mum if she's gone out and bought it on sale so it saves me going out but I have used the cleanser, the moisturiser and this and all the products make my skin feel lovely and fresh, I don't know if it's the actual product or the cucumber sort of scent but something is working and I quite like it so I would repurchase it.

Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed it :)

2014 Reading Challenge ♡

Happy New Year people on the interwebs!

I know many of you have probably been making new years resolutions (or completely poo-poo-ing the idea) but I have sort of made a resolution myself for the first time I think. I can't remember any other resolutions I've made, perhaps I made them and failed so decided to block it out from my memory.

Anyway, I've set myself a reading goal on the website Goodreads for 2014. My goal is to read 15 books this year, that might not sound a lot to you but I haven't done much reading since GCSEs and now A levels. 7 of those books will be Harry Potter because after going to the studio tour I feel I need to read it again, also I've been physically unable to watch the films after having a movie marathon after the tour - I am emotionally broken, I can barely watch clips without dying internally. I'm also wanting to read the Bell Jar which I received for Christmas, I'm hoping to read a lot more this year. If you want to add me on Goodreads, you can do so here. I'll accept anyone as a friend on there. It's a cool but geeky website I suppose, you can rate books, add books to your 'to-read' list, add favourites, write reviews, do quizzes, and there are forums so you can discuss the books - I took some enjoyment in discussing a Jaqueline Wilson book from my childhood on there.

That's all for now, I was thinking of doing book reviews on here too but I'm not sure. If that's what you'd like to see then please comment, thanks :)
