red magazine freebie

Hi guys!

I picked up Red magazine today and wanted to share this with you all because they are offering a free gift with purchase.

The magazine retails for £4. There are three free gift options to choose from:

1) Aromatherapy Associates Renewing Rose Cleanser 30ml (Retails for £24/200ml)

2) Aromatherapy Associates Tripe Rose Renewing Moisturiser 30ml (Retails for £54/50ml)

3) Aromatherapy Associates Hydrating Rose Face Mask 50ml (Retails for £26/100ml)

 I opted for the face mask, my Lush fresh face mask is coming to an end so I was on the lookout to try something new.

Have you ever bought a magazine just for the freebie?

korres wild rose 24-hour moisturising & brightening cream: review

Some of you may recall I hauled the Korres Wild Rose 24-Hour Moisturising & Brightening Cream back in February. I've been using it daily for two months now, enough time for me to do a review. 

The Claims

Wild rose fruit is noted for its high vitamin C level that demonstrates significant repairing action on fine lines and pigmentation disorders. Furthermore, wild Rose oil, rich in linoleic and linolenic acid, offers significant moisturising, healing and softening properties. At the same time, it forms a protective film on the skin that helps the cell regeneration and improves the texture of the epidermis.

The Reality
This cream is just lovely, it is light in texture but moisturises beautifully. After two months of using this cream my skin feels hydrated and brighter. The face cream absorbs quite well and did not break me out out either. 

I have to say that the scent is not what I was expecting at all, not "rosy" as I thought it would be, but rather more of a herbal scent. It is quite subtle though and does not stick around. 

The main downside with  this cream is that it is only spf 6, it would be nice if they made it with at least spf 15! 

Overall I really like the korres wild rose cream. I love how soft it leaves my face feeling and that the majority of ingredients are natural and that it is free of nasties like SLE's and parabens.

The Packaging

The product comes in the standard glass tub that most face creams come in. 

The Price 
Asos: £20/40ml
Feel Unique: £20/40ml

The Ultimate Question: Would I Repurchase?

Yes

The Overall Score: 4.2/5

Have you tried this Korres wild rose face cream? What are your thoughts?

coloured jeans and stripes

Jumper: Gap || Jeans: Primark || Trainers: Puma 

Hi guys! Hope you all had a lovely easter and enjoyed your bank holiday weekend. I was actually working, so I have today off and its still cold but the sun is out and it looks lovely so a long awaited walk to my nearby country park was called for.

I'm wearing a super casual outfit. My pink skinny jeans from Gap and a stripey grey jumper from Gap as well. I do love Gap for casual pieces. I finished of my outfit with a pair of trainers for practicality, as they are so much more comfier to walk in but the grey and pink match with the rest of the outfit!

What did you guys get up to for the bank holiday weekend?
