I received this Thanks To Nature Hydrate and Nourish Conditioner with Abysinnian Oil as part of the Best in Beauty Marketplace event. This came in a clear plastic pouch with the shampoo and body wash as a travel size kit. After double shampooing my hair I apply a small palm sized amount of the conditioner to my roots and scalp and massage it through to the ends. I am absolutley loving the smell of this product as it reminds of some luxe conditioners that I have been using. I leave this on for a few minutes whilst I use the body wash on the rest of me. When rinsing the conditioner out of my hair, I can feel that it has been moisturised and feels hydrated. I will definitely be taking the 3 products with me on my next holiday, as they smell divine.

I received the Thanks To Nature Hydrate and Nourish Shampoo with Absyinnian Oil from the Best in Beauty Marketplace event. I am very fussy when it comes to shampoo as my hair is coloured and quite dry. The fact that this shampoo says that it nourishes and hydrates, I was willing to give it a good go. I wet my hair and proceed to use a 50-cent piece size amount of the product. I lather my hair, massaging it at the roots and scalp. I can feel that this is moisturising my scalp, so thats a great start. I always double shampoo and after the second wash I can feel that my hair is thoroughly cleansed, I love the frangrance of this product, it is a beautiful smell. Overall I am very happy with how this product has worked for me.

I received this Thanks To Nature Creamy Body Wash Sweet Almond And Vanilla from the Best in Beauty Marketplace event. I am loving this body wash that comes in a yellow bottle with a rose gold lid. You can smell the vanilla as soon as you unscrew the lid. It has a milky white texture that lathers up well with water. It has a very luxurious feel and it leaves my skin feeling moisturised and supple. The vanilla scent is right up my alley and the sweet almond oil helps to nourish the skin rather than drying it out. I will now be using this as part of my daily showering routnine.

I received the AIRvive Digital Hair Dryer-EC8930AU by Remington from the Best in Beauty marketplace event. I am such a huge fan of the Remington brand as they never disappoint. I am never going back to another hair dryer as I have found my holy grail! After shampooing and conditioning my hair, I apply a heat protectant spray. I then proceed to blow dry my hair. I have long, fine very thick hair and its quite the effort to dry. This hair dryer makes it an absolute breeze. With all the different settings, and how powerful the dryer is, there really is something for everyone. The fact that it has protective thermal sensors to ensure you are protected from extreme heat is a blessing for my poor dry scalp. This dryer has given me the confidence to use it all the time, with no worries of a burnt scalp or overheated crisp hair. It also has built-in heat activated micro-conditioners to protect my hair from the dreaded frizz factor. Absolutely loving this one!!

I received the Clinique Moisture Surge Active Glow Serum as part of the Best in Beauty marketplace event. I already use some of Cliniques products and find them to be really good, so I was very excited to get to trial this one. I start out by cleansing my skin, toning, then I use the serum (which comes in a dropper style for very easy distribution of product). I use a small amount of this milky textured serum as it goes a long way. My skin literally drinks this up and feels instantly plump and moisturised. I love that this gently exfoliates the skin without even realising, because it is not harsh in any way. I will often combine this with my night cream for an instant boost. I am loving how this makes my skin feel and that fact that it is now glowing.

I received the Nude by Nature Dewy Serum Blush Drops as part of the Best in Beauty marketplace event. I have been a Nude by Nature fan for quite some time. I love that I can use this on my cheeks and my lips, as it is highly pigmented. I got the 02 Warm Rose as I have a more olive complexion, and I am glad that I did. This product is very lightweight and you only need the tiniest amount and it goes a very long way. I prepare my face and do all of my makeup and leave this until the very last step. My only gripe is that you have to squeeze the bottle for the drops to come out and every time that I have done this, too much product has squirted into my brush or on to my finger, which is a waste in my opinion. I do love that it is infused with Hyaluronic Acid Complex so it doesnt dry the cheeks out. It really does give a natural flush.

I received Burts Bees tinted lip balm as part of the Best In Beauty Marketplace event. I have always been quite a fan of the Burts Bees lip balm, and I have to say that I am really loving the tinted version. The shea butter and bontanical waxes leave the lips moisturised and plump, although I do have to reapply every few hours. I am loving the slight tint to this balm as it makes the lips look very natural with no added hassle of lipstick, it just enhances my natural lip colour. My lips do feel nourished at the time of application but as I said this only lasts maybe 3-4 hours, but I dont mind having to reapply it. The little tube is very easy to throw in the handbag.

I receive the Justice Marine Beauty Scalp Scrub as part of the recent Best In Beauty Marketplace event. I loved talking with the lovely man that was representing this as he was so excited about the product and I can now see why. I wet my hair and then proceed to massage this into my scalp. I love the blue tube that it comes in as it makes it so easy to control how much product you are using, so there is no waste. After massaging this in for a few minutes, I rinse it out and proceed to shampoo and condition my hair. I have a very dry scalp and therefor get a fair bit of dandruff. I love that this product not only exfoliates my scalp but leaves it feeling amazing as well. I have found that after using this just twice so far, I have no flakes and my scalp feels almost moisturised. I am really looking forward to seeing even more results the more that I use this. I will definitely be re-purchasing.

I received the Dermal Therapy original Lip Balm from the recent Best In Beauty Marketplace event. I am a huge fan of all the Dermal range of products, but this particular product is now a must have in my hand bag. With the recent change in weather from exreme heat to very cold, my lips were left cracked and dry. I applied the balm and within hours of the application my lips were back to being plump and moisturised. I also have a son with Autism and getting him to put anything on his cracked wind chaffed lips is almost impossible, but I begged him to try this and he said "oh I really like this because its not sticky and annoying". So this gets a big tick from both of us.

I received the Maybelline New York Lifter Stix as part of the recent Best In Beauty Marketplace event. I am loving how versatile this is. I went for the darker shade to use as a bronzer and am thrilled that I did. So I cleanse, tone, serum, moisturize and then start to apply my makeup. I leave using this until the very end as you can use it to sculpt and lift your features. It glides on effortlessly as it is a very soft and creamy texture. I use it along the cheekbones, and at the jawline as it really helps to define these areas. I would really love to get the lightest shade as well to use as a concealer, as the formula is so deliciously creamy and moisturizing. One swipe and blend away. I will be purchasing other shades to add to my makeup bag so that I can really blend and sculpt every area.
