Hi there! Today’s post is about this Cellio It’s True Moisture Skin Pearl Natural Skin Care System. When I ordered this product, I didn’t know what it was. So when it arrived, I looked at the how to use on the back of the box… and it turned out that this product is a toner!

I’ve been using this toner for about 4 weeks now (twice weekly in the morning, but every single night after cleansing). I think it’s very good! It has a cute powdery fragrance, it removes cleanser and make-up residue perfectly, and it leaves my skin feeling wonderful. I’m enjoying this toner very much!

Cellio It’s True Moisture Skin Pearl Natural Skin Care System is available as 250ml. I paid £6 (TK Maxx).

100% Cruelty-Free – Primark PS… Plumping Vitamin E Sheet Mask

November 23, 2020Mrs Strawberry Blonde Face, Face Care, Face Masks, Leaping Bunny, Primark 1 Comment

Hi there! Today’s post is about this Primark PS… Plumping Vitamin E Sheet Mask with witch hazel, tea extract and papaya extracts. This mask promises to have a plumping effect on skin. You’re supposed to cleanse your face, then use this mask and leave it on for about 15-20 minutes.

I’ve given this sheet mask a try, and I think it’s very good. It felt hydrating and plumping, and I give it an extra star for not being sticky. I’ll buy this face mask again, no doubt!

If you’re interested, Primark PS… Plumping Vitamin E Sheet Mask is available as a single use 23g sheet mask for 80p – a total steal! This mask is certified cruelty-free – it carries the Leaping Bunny logo. The sheet mask itself is bio-degradable (I wish all sheet masks were!). 💚

Olay Regenerist Daily Regenerating Cream Wash

November 22, 2020Mrs Strawberry Blonde Face, Facial Cleansing, Olay 1 Comment

Hi there! Today’s post is about this Olay Regenerist Daily Regenerating Cream Wash. This is an exfoliating cream wash which claims to have advanced anti-ageing benefits, and it can be used once or twice daily.

I’ve been using this face wash for a few weeks now, and I think it’s really nice! It exfoliates my skin beautifully, but it feels gentle at the same time. Great stuff! It also reminds me very much of the old Olay Total Effects Cream Wash (unfortunately discontinued).

Olay Regenerist Daily Regenerating Cream Wash has been renamed (likely reformulated as well); it’s now called Olay Regenerist Skin Perfecting Cleanser. It’s available as 150ml, and I paid £3 (special offer, usually it’s about £6).

Nail Of The Day – Rimmel 60 Seconds 313 Rita Rouge & Rainbow Foils

November 19, 2020Mrs Strawberry Blonde Nail Foils, Nail Of The Day, Nails, Rimmel 1 Comment

Hi there! I have a Nail Of The Day post for you today.

For this mani I painted my nails with Rimmel 60 Seconds 313 Rita Rouge (2 coats). This is a very nice polish. I like the black cherry shade and the quick drying formula!

For the colourful highlights I used an old piece of leftover rainbow foil. I think the ring finger looked particularly nice, but I liked the overall look of the mani. I’ll be doing more foils manis this coming winter.

What colour nail polish are you wearing at the moment? Feel free to comment, and thanks for stopping by!

Herbal Essences Bio Renew Passion Flower & Rice Milk Shampoo & Conditioner

November 11, 2020Mrs Strawberry Blonde Hair, Herbal Essences 2 Comments

Hi there! Today’s post is about the hair care products I’m using at the moment – Herbal Essences Bio Renew Passion Flower & Rice Milk Shampoo & Conditioner with botanical ingredients from Kew Gardens in Surrey! I’ve been using these products for about 3 weeks now, and here’s what I think.

Herbal Essences Bio Renew Passion Flower & Rice Milk Shampoo is a creamy white shampoo. It smells of passion flowers, and it’s gentle. I think it would be good for dry hair types.

Herbal Essences Bio Renew Passion Flower & Rice Milk Conditioner detangles my hair with ease. Just like the shampoo, this conditioner would be perfect for dry hair types, and it should also be ideal for stand-offish hair (mine’s like that more often that I’d care to admit).

However, I’ve noticed that these products make my hair go greasy much quicker than usual. I wash my hair daily, so this shouldn’t happen. What I’m doing now is… use these Herbal Essences products for 3 days on and 1 day off. On the “off” day I use Alberto Balsam hair products which suck the grease (or rather product residue) right off of my hair and scalp!

All in all, I think Herbal Essences Bio Renew Passion Flower & Rice Milk Shampoo & Conditioner are nice products for the right hair type or hair care routine. I can definitely see myself buying these products again. If you’re interested, these hair products are available as 400ml for about £6, but I paid £2.97 each (half price offer).

November 10, 2020Mrs Strawberry Blonde 11 Stars Products, Bath & Shower, Palmolive 4 Comments

Hi there! Today’s post is about 2 shower gels which are old favourites of mine – Palmolive Naturals Irresistible Softness Black Orchid & Moisturising Milk Shower Milk and Palmolive Aroma Moments So Sweet Shower Gel With Rooibos Tea, Rose And Almond. I found these gems in my stash just a few weeks ago. I remembered how much I used to love these, so I wanted to retry them right away!

Palmolive Naturals Irresistible Softness Black Orchid & Moisturising Milk Shower Milk is amazing! It smells of velvety ochid petals mixed with sweetness and femininity. Wow! Simply dreamy!

Palmolive Aroma Moments So Sweet Shower Gel With Rooibos Tea, Rose And Almond is another stellar product. I love the rose, almond and tea fragrance. It’s sweet, it’s floral, and it smells like… you’re being hugged by sunlight. Truly awesome stuff!

I love these shower gels! Palmolive Naturals Irresistible Softness Black Orchid & Moisturising Milk Shower Milk and Palmolive Aroma Moments So Sweet Shower Gel With Rooibos Tea, Rose And Almond are available as 250ml each. These fragrances have been discontinued, but I’ve actually seen these at discount stores very recently (and I stocked up).

Weekly Recap 2 – 8 November 2020

November 8, 2020Mrs Strawberry Blonde Weekly Recap 2 Comments

Hi there! I only had one post this week – Monday’s Empties post which was about all the products I finished last month. I didn’t get around to do any blogging or blog reading.

We’ve had quite some trouble with our last place, and we had to move again. I also haven’t been well, and I don’t think I’ll have more than 2 or 3 posts per week for the next few weeks. ButI’ll be back soon, and I’ll also catch up with all of you lovely blogging buddies. I’m sorry I’ve neglected you, but it’s been a difficult few months.

I look forward to finding out what everyone has been up to lately and to being in touch with you! Lots of love! 💞

Empties – October 2020

November 2, 2020Mrs Strawberry Blonde Empties 2 Comments

Hi there! Today’s the first working day in November, so this post is about all the products I emptied in October. Read on if you’re wondering which products I managed to finish last month.

1 Boots No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Day Hand Cream – a lovely hand cream! I’d be happy to have it again as part of a gift set, but it’s quite expensive, so I won’t buy it on its own.

2 Boots No 7 Protect & Perfect Lip Care – this is the best lip care product I’ve ever tried. Repurchase? Yes!

3 Boots Botanics Hydrating Serum Capsules – I loved these! I have one bottle left in my stash (and I’ll use those capsules soon). Unfortunately, these were discontinued. Otherwise, I’d buy them again and again…

4 Boots No. 7 Youthful Replenishing Facial Oil – one of the best facial oils I’ve tried so far. I will repurchase this one too, no doubt!

5 Boots Extracts Sweet Mango Body Spray – I love this fragrance! It’s sad that Boots discontinued the entire Extracts line, so unfortunately, I can’t buy this one again.

6 Palmolive Italian Gardens Shower Gel – this was an amazing shower gel! Too bad it was a limited edition…

7 Vaseline Intensive Care Cocoa Radiant Non-Greasy Lotion – this is a wonderful body lotion. Repurchase? Yes!

8 Gliss Liquid Silk Conditioner – this is a nice conditioner. I will buy it (and the matching shampoo) again, no doubt!

9 Palmolive Naturals Pomegranate Shower Gel – I liked this shower gel quite a bit. I think I’ll buy it again.

10 Original Source Mango & Macadamia Shower – this is a lovely shower gel. Too bad that it’s no longer available. I have one more bottle though!

11 Beauty UK White Nail Polish – an old favourite! Too bad it’s no longer available!

12 Garnier Skin Active Refreshing Botanical Toner With Aloe Extract – not my favourite. I won’t repurchase it.

13 Superdrug B. Confident Hyaluronic Acid Facial Spritz – one of holy grail products! I have plenty of back-up!

14 Primark PS 2 in 1 Base & Top Coat – an OK clear polish. Dries a bit too slowly for my liking. I have 1 more bottle.

15 Boots Extracts Cocoa Butter Bath Cream (x2) – I love this bath cream! Unfortunately, this product has been discotinued. I have one more bottle in my stash though.

16 Kallos Multivitamin Energising Hair Mask – a very good hair mask! But it was a 1000ml which took me ages to finish. I won’t ever buy such a big bottle of any kind of product again!

I’m happy with what I finished. I hope I can keep this up until at least the end of the year. Thanks for stopping by! x
