Dirty Works Brand Focus *

SC7

A little while ago, I was browsing through Coles and actually picked up a Dirty Works body scrub myself. I used it all up, and forgot about it. I was offered to try out a few other products from Dirty Works, and because I loved the first one I tried so much, I thought I'd give them a go!

I had heard of Dirty Works before as a UK based company that's fairly cost effective, so I was pretty excited when I saw these products in Aussie stores.

SC5

The first two products I tried out were body scrubs; the Life's A Beach Coconut Scrub and the Buff Your Stuff Body Scrub. I really like the packaging of both tubes, they're really eye catching and cute, and remind me a lot of Soap and Glory. (Which I'm sure is no mistake.)

July Her Fashion Box

HFB1

Getting home from my now normal 9 to 5 job, I had a nice surprise waiting for me on my door step! This month, the July Her Fashion Box made it in time for the end of the month! Yay! I hadn't seen a lot of spoilers for this box, so it was definitely exciting to get this.

The theme for this month's box is "Infinite."

Bomb Cosmetics Shower Scrub in Cranberry & Lime

LM3

I'm a huge fan of body scrubs, so when I saw this Bomb Cosmetics Shower Scrub in Cranberry & Lime
a while back on the Get Drenched website, I thought I'd give it a go! I also fell in love with the idea of this scent on fellow blogger Nalini's blog last year! (You can read her original post here.)

LM1

I chose the scent Cranberry & Lime. I have tried the candle in the same scent, and needless to say I fell in love! This particular scent is a delicious mix of cranberry, lime and supporting scents of strawberry, raspberry, plum, apple, peach, cassis and hints of white flowers. It is incredibly refreshing and zesty, and really makes me feel uplifted!

Neutrogena Cleansing Towelettes Facial Wipes*

NE1

I absolutely love my face wipes. I don't use them to solely remove my makeup, but they're great to get rid of excess makeup before hand, or if you have had a huge night and you can't be bothered to remove everything. (Only every now and then, of course!) 

I've tried a lot of face wipes in the past, but the brand I continuously keep coming back to is Neutrogena. The Neutrogena Cleansing Towelettes in Original and Night Calming are definite favourites of mine! You'll probably have noticed that already if you're a regular reader here, as these more than often feature in my empties posts! 

NE2

My favourite version to buy is the Night Calming face wipes. I find that they are wet enough to remove everything with ease, but not too wet. They're very moisturising, so afterwards my skin feels really lovely. The scent is also nice and neutral, and makes me feel really relaxed and ready for bed. 

I'm not sure exactly how different this version is to the original, but somehow I like the scent more.

Lush Cosmetics Lip Scrub Collection

LUSH1

It's no secret that one of my favourite brands ever is Lush. And one of my favourite products from Lush is definitely their amazing lip scrubs! When I first discovered their lip scrubs, I was limited to two flavour choices; Mint Julips or Bubblegum. Since then, the range has extended to four delicious flavours! I have already done an in-depth review on Mint Julips (which you can read about here) but I thought I'd do a comparative post for everyone so you can see these yummy scrubs side by side.

LUSH2

The four flavours are Mint Julips, Bubblegum, Popcorn and the Limited Edition Santa's Lip Scrub. Obviously, they are all pretty yummy.

My absolute favourites are a tie between Popcorn and Santa's. At first, I wasn't a big fan of popcorn as I had never tried the "sweet" flavours of popcorn until I visited Japan. After that, I was hooked! Santa's is a cola flavoured lip scrub, and if you know me in real life, you'll know I have a big soda habit! So this is a natural choice for me, too! As much as I love these two, I certainly don't ignore the other two flavours either! They're just as delicious!

Boots Serum 7 Anti Age Range *

B1

I've always had a fascination with Boots - for those Australian and non-UK readers, we're talking about a store in the UK here - not the shoes! I've always pictured it like a way more awesome Priceline, and whenever I think about going to the UK I just think about all the amazing deals they always seem to have!

I was surprised when I heard that Boots were bringing some of their home grown products down under! We're talking the Serum 7 Anti Aging range! I'd never even heard of this range before, so I have no idea if it's already a range available in the UK or if it's something designed especially for us Aussies, but either way I was excited!

B2

The range includes three products; the Protecting Body Serum, the Protecting Day Cream and the Fine Lines Eye Cream. I was excited to see a body product included in this range, as I tend to neglect skin that's not on my face. (As in my decolletage!)

June Her Fashion Box

HFB1

The June Her Fashion Box almost made it in time, but alas it just scraped through into July. No matter, the time frame doesn't really concern me - as long as it arrives safe and sound, I'm happy!

The theme for this month is Hat Trick - yep, you guessed it. We get a hat!

June Lip Factory

LF1

The June Lip Factory has arrived! This month the box was a little bit different, instead of a nice internal box, all the products are just jammed inside of the outer cardboard box. I don't mind so much, as I don't use the internal boxes for anything usually.

There didn't seem to be a theme for this month, but the art work is pretty!
