Skin Food New Zealand Mud Masque

Hi there! Today’s post is about a face mask I’ve been using for a weeks – Skinfood New Zealand Mud Masque. This face mask contains Rotorua mud, spirulina, apricot oil, aloe vera and jojoba oil, and it promises to “work as a deep cleanser to soften and relax the skin“. The mask also claims that results (smaller pores and softer skin) are noticeable after 1 use.

How does it work? Apply it to your face, leave it on for 5-10 minutes, then remove with warm water and a damp cloth. Now let me tell you if this mask is any good…

I’ve used this mask a few times now, and I think it’s really good. It feels deeply cleansing and it makes my pores look smaller. I don’t think that the mask makes my skin feel softer, but I’m happy to report that it doesn’t feel drying. My husband likes this mask too, and we’re happy to continue to use it.

Skinfood New Zealand Mud Masque is available as 100ml. I paid £4.99 (TK Maxx).

Haul! New Products From Boots, Montagne Jeunesse, TK Maxx, L’Oréal, Sukin, Una Brennan, Alberto Balsam & My Little Pony

Hi there! Today’s post is about the new products I bought in July. Here they are:

Boots Ingredients sheet masks are £2.50 each. But Boots ran a 4 for £3 promotion (Online only!), so I had to buy 4. I would have been stupid not to take advantage of the offer! I opted for 2 Luminous Youth masks (had them before, loved them), 1 Super Hyaluronic mask, and 1 Cleansing & Purifying mask.

I thought Montagne Jeunesse did masks (face, hair and foot masks) only. So I was surprised to find 2 body moisturisers at my local Poundworld store. I got a Buriti Fruit Body Smoothie and a Goji Berry Body Smoothie. £1 each.

I was happy to pick up a L’Oréal Elvive Smooth & Polish Thermo Detangling Spray for £1 (Poundland). And I got myself an Ekél Natural Clean Peeling Gel with Grape (£4.99, TK Maxx) and a Skinfood Mud Masque (£4.99, TK Maxx).

Two more Sukin products moved in with me! Sukin’s Clarifying Facial Tonic was £4.99 and Sukin’s Anti-Pollution Facial Masque was £5.99. The OM SHE Aromatherapy Skin Lift Hydrating Face Serum was £4.99. These 3 products came from TK Maxx.

And these are the last 3 products: Super Facialist By Una Brennan Pore Purifying Clay Mask (£4.99, TK Maxx), Alberto Balsam Colour Bright Detangler + UV Filter and My Little Pony Leave-In Hair Detangler. The 2 detangling sprays came from Poundworld, and they were £1 each.

This is what I bought in July. Lots of masks, I know! I’ll try to review all these products asap. Any comments? Feel free to get in touch. And thanks for reading! 🙂
