Empties 4 #

I know, I know I've really been slacking with the blogging but I just feel like I never have enough time (poor excuse). However now I have a bit of time I'm bringing you another Empties post. 

nspa Coconut ice-cream Shower & Bath Gel: 
I love anything that has a coconut scent so when I saw this shower and bath gel by nspa, from Asda I snapped it up for my travels. There's not much you can say about bath products is there... but I will definitely be having a look at the other products within nspa's bath range as I know there all based on desserts. Good enough to eat ... (but NOT advised).

Vaseline Original Petroleam Jelly: 
Vaseline is a store cupboard favorite of mine. I particular like to apply it all over my face before I go to bed and when I wake up in the mornings, my face is a lot more smoother and softer. If you like, its sort of a night time treatment for me as a traditional night cream would be to some people. 

No7 Perfect Lips Pencil - 10 Blush:

I like using lip liner from time to time as I find they wear really well as an all over lip colour. So when the famous No7 £5 off voucher was handed to me I knew I had try a new lip liner. This colour is natural, almost a 'your lips but better' colour, it soft and is retractable so no sharpeners needed. A must try!

Thalgo Cellu-Thighs Gel:

To put it straight, this product is rubbish. It claims to reduce celluite in just 14 days but its a load of bollocks (pardon my French. It retails around the £40+ mark but I beg you ladies not to buy it. Lucky for me I only bought a sample! It does have a really nice aloe vera type scent but it didn't even give you that tingling sensation to even seem like it was doing anything!

Neal's Yard Rehydrating Rose Daily Moisture: 
A magazine freebie worth trying but not for me. The rose scent is beautiful and lingers throughout the day however this face cream is too moisturising and left an oily film on my face which made my make-up slip. It does however have a light consistency so a good product if you have extremely dry skin and don't like thick creams. 

If you've tried any of these products let me know what you thought of them and as always if you've done a empties post of video please link it in the comments below so I can have a look. x

Sculpt Down

Apart from going to Zumba twice a week, I don't really do much exercise. I have been considering going to the gym but I don't want to waste my money if I know I won't go regularly. There are so many 'Quick Fix' products on the market that claim to make you look slimmer or get rid of Celliute over night, BUT how many off them really work ...?

Soap & Glory's affordable range of 'Celliute' and 'Slimming' combating products.

     Not long ago I bought some samples from Thalgo's 'Slim & Sculpt' range. They normally retail at the £40 plus mark for full size, however I was able to get samples for £8 from 'Latest in Beauty'. I know deep down 'Quick Fixes' generally don't work or don't have a lasting effect but I was curious to try a 'Celliute' / 'Slimming product for myself...

Thalgo's Cellu-Thighs and Flat Stomach (50 ml)

Due to a mistake in my original order I ended up receiving two tubes of the 'Cellu-Thighs', so this will give me a fair amount of time to trial it as this product claims to achieve slimmer legs in just 14 days! I don't hold much hope on the 'Flat Stomach' but we can only hope!  

I am going to start using these products from tomorrow (14/06/2012), but I'm not sure how to document the progress (if any)... any ideas? I'm not sure if I feel comfortable taking photos just yet!

Have you guys tried any 'Celliute' or 'Slimming' products? Did they work or were they a, lets be frank, a load of bullshit? It would be interesting to here your thoughts x
