Bath time favourites!

Hey everybody,

So today I thought I would share my bath time favorites with all of you! You may not know but I am a huge fan of baths and once I'm in I have to force myself to get out! It may sound a little weird but its true, I spend absolutely ages in a bath when I can, I just find it so relaxing. Anyway here are some of my favorite products I regularly use once in the bath and after.

 My first product I love to use is something from Lush. Whether it is a bath bomb, bath melt or bubble bar i just love how they make your skin so soft after and the smell they leave is gorgeous! Here I have the brightside bubble bar from Lush and I just break a bit from the bar and crumble it under the tap. It leaves wonderous bubbles and smells absolutely gorgeous!
 The next product I use is a clearasil skin perfecting face wash. I generally use this to help reduce breakouts and the redness of my spots when i do get a breakout. This may not work for everyone so don't buy it with high expectations. I'm lucky to have found a product which does help my skin, however if this doesnt work for you then invest in some other products until you find one that does! Also it does take a few weeks for you to notice any difference so if you were to start using this you will need to use it everyday, twice a day for it to make a real difference.
 I then use the simple kind to skin moisturising facial wash. This helps to rehydrate my skin and regain its moisture. If you get quite dry and oily skin then i definitely recommend this, it has helped my skin dramatically, not only has improved the look and quality of my skin, it has also improved the feel of it too!
 I also use a holister body wash, this is in the scent 'Solana Beach' and is a little on the pricey side, however i would definitely recommend it. It has an absolute gorgeous smell and reminds me a little bit of the Caribbean i don't know why because I've never been there but it does! Also the smell doesnt disappear to quickly and it makes my skin feel silky smooth.
 This next product I use regularly is the ted baker body scrub. This is a god send if you suffer from dryer skin like i do! It works so well and lasts ages! I use it on my legs, arms and feet and honestly, ive never had softer skin after using it!


 For my hair I use the Tresemme salon silk shampoo and conditioner. This really helps to keep my hair looking healthy and not greasy!! I wash my hair with the shampoo and then i rub the conditioner in and leave it in for about 10-15 minutes then rinse it off. By doing it this way I've found it makes my hair super soft and stay looking ckean and not greasy for slightly longer. This is something definitely worth purchasing!
 And finally I use the simple kind to skin deep cleansing face mask. However, I dont use this in the bath, I apply it to my face after ive got out and dressed but before i dry my hair. I leave it on my face for 5-10 minutes then wash it off. It cleans out my pores and keeps my face looking clean and soft for longer definitely worth buying!

I hope this helps you when looking for products to help your skin and hair and thanks for reading!
(Sorry its so long!)

***DISCLAIMER***
I'm not trying to show off or anything i just generally wanted to show you what i use in the help it will help you guys a bit! Also I have not be paid in any way to mention these brands or anything, they are what i use and have found work for me. Don't expect these products to work for you as our skin react differently to products:)

New day...New blogger...

Hiya everybody!

As I'm new to this blogging business I thought introducing myself may be a good start!!
My name is Emma Taylor, from Norfolk and 14 years old. I have become obsessed with make up and beauty recently, however I only tend to use drugstore make up since I can't yet afford the high end make up! I'm always watching youtube and looking for new ways to improve my skin and make up routine etc! I hope you will all join me along the way and hopefully I will grasp the idea of blogging regularly!!
I thought I should add my first photo!
