Smell Pink! October Body Favourites

Happy November!
Hope everyone had/is having an amazing (and responsible ;)) Halloween weekend!!

Before October completely fades away and the Breast Cancer theme is forgotten, here are some cute pink things from the Body Shop that I've loved in October!


So I've finally gotten around to using this pretty pink strawberry smelling gift set a wonderful friend gave to me for my birthday and I thought I would share all the wonderful things that I've been enjoying so far. I haven't used it all yet, but in light of breast cancer awareness month and pink and because I like smelling nice I've decided to share anyway ;)

The pretty pink gift set in all its glory!

Strawberry scented 

L-R (shower gel, body polish, loofah, body butter and body soap)

Bar Soap

Its not only incredibly amazing smelling, but there is just so much soap for a single bar, which is a plus. The one thing that I dislike about this is that although it smells great in the shower, it doesn't really linger for long. 

Shower Gel (250ml)

This comes in a really great size because 250ml is just enough for you to use it at home and if you really want to, to take on longer trips. Also its the perfect amount because its just enough for you to get enough use out of, but not too much that you risk getting bored of the scent. It also looks very pretty and smells refreshing which is fun :):)

Body Butter (50ml)

I love body butters because they are creamy, hydrating and the scent stays with you for a long time. This body butter also wins more points because its 50ml, which means it fits the carry-on requirements for most airlines! So if you really want a refreshing scent and a pick-me-up during a long flight or just a regular day, you can carry this around with you to brighten up and make yourself feel better. It also feels silky, soft and smooth and smells like a strawberry sorbet. What more could you ask for?

Wear it Pink! Products I've Used Up

Happy Breast Cancer Awareness Month friends!! :)

In light of October being breast cancer awareness month, I thought it would be fun to show some of my favourite pink products that I've used up over the past few weeks!

V05 Plump it up dry shampoo 

Not only does it smell like spring and flowers in a bowl, but it is also one of the more long-lasting dry shampoos I've come across.  Because its V05, its slightly more pricey than regular dry shampoos, but it smells incredibly and doesn't leave your hair dry and stringy after prolonged use like some other dry shampoos.  I'm honestly no connoisseur of dry shampoos- I've only recently started to use them but I've found them incredibly useful for when I'm going to be out for long periods of time and exposing my hair to a lot of dirt and oils.  Also, its packaging is pink and smells it smells like pink :D 

Dove Plum & Sakura Bodywash

Aside from this being the most silky and nourishing bodywashes I've used in a long time, the fact that it smells like spring and sakura flowers in a bottle definitely makes my evenings better. It also leaves a long-lasting smell, so if for instance, you're using it in the evening, you still smell fresh in the morning.  I've used it in the morning and gone out for a whole day and can still catch the smell lingering on me.  

Victoria's Secret Bombshell Body Lotion

This stuff smells like heaven and angels but also slightly edgy.  If seduction is associated with heavy scents and the colour black, this scent is a mixture of pink and black scents together... I essentially feel like this is the walking scent of Victoria's Secret.  It also comes with the cutest pink packaging and is very strong and long-lasting.  The only thing I'd say about this is that the formula is quite light and so its not particularly moisturising, especially if your skin gets dry quite easily like mine or if you live in a drier area or during the winter months.  Its a bit of a struggle because it smells quite heavy, so you feel a bit reluctant to pile it on eventhough it might not be moisturising your skin quite enough.  

Stay tuned for more breast cancer awareness and pink until the end of this month!
