Empties #2

Back again with a post on some used up products - I actually have more than this but dont want to write a huge post as I know I like short & sweet posts. To the point I guess. 


1. Nspa mum to be moisturising bump butter - This was a gift from a friend & it came in a set with an oil & a shower gel so Im afraid I dont know the price. This is absolutely divine, its thick & nourishing with a floral scent. I am 39 weeks pregnant now & most days moisturising day & night so do get through products quickly. I had stocked up on lots of different products but if I hadnt I would of gone and repurchased this. I believe its from Asda stores. 

2. bareMinerals original in medium beige around £22.50 - I have used this foundation on and off for years now. Its great because you can use a light dusting for the day time but for a night out you can build up such good coverage. It makes my skin look flawless in pictures. Also on nights out its great because when taking pictures with flash it doesnt turn you in to a ghost! I use a big face brush from one of the bareminerals kits and have to say the more the brush has beeb used the better. I also do bridal makeup and have used this foundation on so many - and so many different skin types.


3. Garnier Soothing 2 in 1 make-up remover - Really enjoyed this product. Removes eye makeup really well - sometimes Id use a little over my face but would still use a foaming cleanser and water after just to make sure its all removed. You can pick this product up in most stores so convinent too! 

4. Clinique 7 Day Scrub Cream - This came in a gift when I picked up some items. I would just use it in the shower as and when I felt like my skin needed it. The grains are quite small but do a good job - I would use it mainly round my nose and chin when I felt it was a little dry and built up. Im quite lucky with my skin as its pretty normal - this just helped to bring back some radiance. 

5. Clarins One step facial Cleaner with Orange Extract £14.95 on allbeauty.com This product is two parts - 1 water 1 oil. So before you use it you shake it - you then put on cotton wool and wipe over the skin - you then turn the cotton wool over and use the other side. As much as I love these kinds of cleansers, its more of a morning freshen up for me rather than a removing makeup job in the evening. 

6. Kérastase Elixir Kultime - My hair dresser recommended me this - she uses it on me when I go in to the salon. Firstly the smell is utterly divine - its like one of the Chanel fragrances. People actually comment when I use this as it makes your hair smell SO good! Secondly its amazing - my hair is always so glossy when I use this. I use maybe two pumps through the lengths of my hair and blow dry - then a teeny tiny amount once its straightened just to polish off the ends. This is a must have for me and I need to repurchase asap. I would recommend speaking to the girls in a salob before buying any of the products as it can be a little confusing but I know this works wonders for me! 

So this turned out to be quite a long pist - hope you enjoyed it and found something useful. 

Next post will be about some Rimmel products I have recently picked up. 

Thanks for reading,

Camera Roll


I have to laugh when I look through my camera roll... Its pretty much ALL FOOD! Ok I am 36 weeks pregnant and indulging a little more than I should... But Ive always loved food! Here is a round up of some of my most recent pictures...

1. Wispa Hot Chocolate and a giant marshmallow... The hot Choc is amazing, I use full fat milk! And the mallows my mums boss picked me up from Tesco before bonfire night. She knows me well!

2. Hot cross buns and butter. My fiancé got us these Friday for a lush start to our saturday morning. ADORE!

3. First mince pie of the year... If you follow me on twitter @emilycambrey you would have seen me tweeting like a crazy lady about mince pies yesterday. Lucky for me Adam came home with them last night. Evening made!

4. Mac & Cheese - Now I am off on mat leave Ive been trying to find my feet in the kitchen. I am not the best cook and I know this is an easy dish... Baby steps for me. Anyway add bacon its lush. Also i realise now this could of fed 8! 

5. Candles and teacups! Every night now I light candles. Its just the best time of year to snuggle up in the warm.

6. Merryteaser Reindeer OH MY DAYS. Why are these so small. I could eat about 100 in one sitting. They are just the best. If you haven't had one yet I suggest you get down the shops now...!

Lush Candy Mountain Bubble Bar review

This bubble bar is heaven. It smells amazing, infact when I got it I put the paper bag straight in to my handbag and my handbag still smells amazing. 



I am trying to have some 'me time' before the baby comes (21days to go!) and thought what better way to relax than with a delcious candy mountain bubble bar.



This bar smells like sweets, gives off gorgeous soft bubbles and my skin feels lovely and soft after. I want to try more of the Lush christmas range - Ive asked for some on my Christmas list. 




Whilst in the bath I decided to have a read of a new book that a friend has lent me. Before I go to sleep by S J Watson. After reading the first 50 pages I am hooked. Its really quite sad and scary as everyday Christine Lucas wakes up she doesnt know where she is. She had an accident in her late twenties & is an amnesiac. Anyway thats all I know for now! Maybe I should do a review when I am finished! 


Please recommend any christmas lush products I should try! 

Love 

Emily
