Nads hair removal is a natural way to remove that troublesome unwanted hair and give you silky smooth skin. They have a range of products from wax strips, hair removal creams, hair removal gels and in growing hair solutions.

Nads natural warm wax kit contains all you need to give you hair free legs for up to 8 weeks. The wax is fragranced with orange blossom and red grape extract to give a sweet, fruity fragrance.

I usually shave my legs as its quick, easy and doesn’t require you to grow any stubble however for a special occasion such as a holiday waxing definitely has the edge as it can leave you stubble free for a whole trip.

Nads warm wax is very easy to use and wasn’t too painful! Though I did find it harder to do the backs of my legs especially closer to my knees. The results were definitely worth it as I found I had hair free legs for about 4 weeks after using the kit.

Jergens Naturals body moisturisers are an American brand containing at least 95% natural ingredients which has recently been brought to the UK. They claim to give soft, smooth and beautiful skin so of course I had to try them!

I’ve got a couple of body moisturisers from the range; the cocoa butter formula and total nourishing cream. My favourite is the cocoa butter moisturiser which also contains vitamin E to hydrate even the driest of skin. The cream is very quickly absorbed leaving no stickiness and it has a lovely sweet fragrance reminiscent of chocolate!

The total nourishing cream contains acai berry which is meant to feed and nourish the skin. It has a very fruity fragrance which is refreshing and again the cream is very easily absorbed leaving your skin feeling very soft and smooth. I do like this moisturiser as well but you can’t beat a bit of cocoa butter to leave you smelling of chocolate!

Palmers body butters are luxuriously thick and nourishing creams available in four different formulas; cocoa, olive, shea and coconut. The packaging reminds me a lot of the Body Shop body butters and the scents are very similar to their range as well.

The cream is quite a thick cream but is absorbed easily into the skin without leaving any sticky residue. The cocoa body butter smells like chocolate and left my skin feeling lovely and soft. I also love the coconut body butter which left my skin smelling lovely all day.

The other Palmers product which I love is the dark chocolate and peppermint lip butter which reminds me of after eights and is very nourishing for the lips. Its like vaseline in an easy to apply tube (rather than getting your fingers all messy using a tin) with a scent that is good enough to eat! Palmers also claim the peppermint oil in the lip butter naturally freshens your breath – I’m not sure how true that bit is but I would still recommend it!

I haven’t had much of an opportunity to write many posts over the Christmas period with a little baby and the usual festive celebrations! So now its January and we have a lot of cold, dark days I’ve been searching for some new products to brighten up the month.

For my first review of the new year I’ve being trying the new fragrance from Vera Wang, Glam Princess. As you will know from my previous posts I’ve always been a fan of the original Princess fragrance and always have a bottle on the go so I couldn’t resist trying this new limited edition version of the fragrance.

Glam Princess has some of the same notes as the original Princess fragrance including guava and vanilla. However this new scent has been updated with red berries, pear, orange blossom, marshmallow and cashmere wood to give a very glam, flirty fragrance. If you’re a fan of the original Princess fragrance I would definitely recommend trying this one.

I have found a great little everyday lipstick that is part of the Pink Beauty range available from Lorna Mai. It describes itself as a “luscious lip sheer lipstick” and it certainly is! The lipstick is highly moisturising and glides on smoothly to give a hint of colour and a slightly glossy finish.

I tried the colour called “Abigail”, which is a natural rose-pink that perfectly matches my natural lip colour. If you are a fair like me, I would highly recommend this colour for a natural “no make-up” look.

The packaging is gorgeous too – a combination of pink and black with a vintage feel to it. It would make a lovely present… if you can bear to part with it!
