BEAUTY | Soap & Glory Bits


 
I have a major love of Soap & Glory.  So when I was in Boots and saw it was on offer at buy 1 get one half price I knew I had to buy some more.

I decided to limit myself to 2 make up products and 2 body products and oh my the choice was hard.

The body products I choose were Sugar Crush Body Wash and Sugar Crush Body Scrub. I haven't tried either before and thought the smell of them was really interesting.

The body wash is scented with lime which has a really zesty, fresh scent which I really love.


 

I bought the body scrub as I've recently come back from my holidays so my legs are starting to get quite scaly. Is that gross? Do you get scaly legs after a holiday in the sun? Please say you do!

I figured I'd use the body scrub and the body wash on alternate days in my morning shower in the hope of getting my legs back to looking like a lady as opposed to a scaly lizard. 

The make up products I chose were Solar Powder, which is, of course, a classic and a new one for me, Sexy Mother Blusher.

There are 3 shades of the blusher. I went for Berry Jamm which is a vivid pink. The blush is in a chubby pencil form which I actually have never tried before, I've always gone for powder blushers.



The blush is extremely creamy and highly pigmented. I applied straight from the stick to my cheeks and blended with a blusher brush.  It blends beautifully and my cheeks had a wonderful, natural looking flush of colour. 

I've worn this a few times now and I'm becoming slightly obsessed (I might have to try the other 2 colours).  I love that it's slightly dewy but also slightly matte. Does that even make sense? It lasts all day and is easily removed at night. I love that you can apply it lightly for a natural look or you can apply it heavier if you'd like. I would definitely recommend these if you haven't tried them already.

 

And finally onto Solar Powder. I just love this product. One of the reasons I love it is because my initials are SG and, well, there's an SG on the powder when it's new. I feel I have personalised make up just for me. Is that sad? 



The Solar Powder is a two-toned bronzer, one lighter and one darker so you can either mix them together for an all over glow or use the darker shade to contour and the lighter shade for a subtle bronze. It isn't at all orangey which I find with some bronzers. I use this when I want a less intense bronzer.


What's your favourite Soap & Glory product?
