Products i have used up in March.. 

March has found me finally using up some of the products i have seemed to have had for, well months!!  In true style it has taken me a month to write about this!

The Body Shop Seaweed Clarifying Toner -  this is my favourite toner.  i have roughly been using this for a year and it leaves my skin so fresh with no harshness or tightness.  a little bit on a cotton pad really goes a long way.  Even if i dont have time to cleanse in the morning, i will always tone to take away any oilyness before moisturiser and foundation.  The Seaweed cleanser is for oily combination skin types, but i think it is just fab for any skin types.  It is regulary on promotion and retails for £7.00 and would i repurchase?  yes!  (and i have, i also have it in miniture for travel)

17 Hide and Chic concealer - I got this as a freebie in boots, something like buy a 17 product get this free, so of course i had to do it.  It is a pen / brush style under eye concealer .  It contains light reflecting pearls to blur fine lines and imperfections, giving eyes that wide awake look.  i really like the light weight texture of this concealer, and it had a good pay off.  I felt it did not last too long which is typical of this product, but for a £4.99 price tag , its not to be sniffed at!  Would i repurchase?  i wouldn't rush out to buy it, but yes i would like to own it again. 

Clinique Pore Minimizer - I purchased this years ago, (too long ago)  i started to use this, then i put it back in the draw.  I am not sure why really?  any hoo i wasn't wowwed by it, but i wanted to use it up.  I do not think it was worth the hefty price tag for such a small tube.  In fact i do not think they even still make this exact one? i used it as a foundation base , almost like a primer.  It was very chalky one the skin, i did smooth but i saw no dramatic difference.  Would i repurchase?  naa

Boots no 7 lash adapt mascara- I got this in a christmas gift set i believe.  I know i did not purchase this myself but has a good price point of £12.50.  (however boots always seems to have some sort of deal on so you never pay the full amount.  A nice wand and distribution of product, it didn't wow me but i liked it.  Would i repurchase?  no, but i would reuse if gifted or another freebie!

Dove Hair Therapy Nourishing Oil Care Express Treatment conditioner - woah , what a mouth full!  this is my second tube of this amazing conditioner.  It smells amazing and gives the hair a super shine and smoothness.  I actually first heard of this by getting a free sample of it from a magazine last september.  It came travel size so i took it away with me, i was swiming alot and it put all the goodness back in.  So now whenever i use this, the smell takes me back!  the cream itself is split with a white coloured cream and a golden coloured cream running through. natural almond and coconut oils, made of molecules so fine they are rapidly absorbed to deeply nourish and replenish essential nutrients.  Would i repurchase?  yes yes yes, and it is on offer in boots at the moment for £1.77, bargain!

Biore Ultra deep cleansing pore strips - this is a box of 6 nose strips,  they are good, not great.  They are a simple concept, wet the pad and let it dry on your nose, then rip off!  The fun part is seeing what has come out of your skin, worth buying for a pamper.  Would i repurchase?  yeah why not!

As you can see from my photo, i like to get every drop out of my products, i cut open tubes, i take off caps, all worth it for an extra weeks worth of product!!
