The lemony flutter cuticle butter miracle.

Lemony Flutter Cuticle Butter - Lush - £6.50/50g

This is an absolute miracle.
I have always been such a fan of Lush - both for the ethical side and the actual product side. I have never, ever been disappointed with a Lush product and I doubt I ever will be.
Lemony Flutter Cuticle Butter is a lemon scented moisturising butter that leaves you feeling ever so soft and smelling even better. A little of this product really does go a long way, the amount on my hand in the bottom picture is more than enough to do your hands, elbows and dry patches anywhere else on the body (although if I'm telling the truth you will probably apply this every where because of how god damn good it smells!) The fragrance is light and zingy - not lemony in a toiler cleaner way, in a fresh lemonade kind of way.

A tub this size will last me around 6 months so the price is amazingly good! They could probably double the price of this and I'd still continue to repurchase it! 

Like all Lush products this has been approved by the Vegetarian Society.
I also use this product on my face as although I have oily skin, I get incredibly sore dry cheeks and lips. I actually first bought this around 7 months ago and this tub is a repurchase, I first bought it because I had such sore dry lips, the lovely assistant in Lush directed me to this before anything else. If you want sexy, soft kissable lips I definitely recommend this. 

The winter skincare for beginners.

Avon Nourishing Créme de nuit nourrissante.
I purchased this last year when my aunt became an Avon lady and I felt bad about not really trusting or liking the make up products enough to use on my sensitive skin. I'm very glad I did.
I have absolutely no idea what it cost me, but it probably wasn't much over £5 and the winter skin range is still available at Avon, so this isn't going to be the most informative review but it's still something I wanted to talk about. 

After a 79 year old lady called Pauline who I met whilst walking my dogs told me "we're not getting any younger" I decided I needed to take my winter skin care up a level. I usually cleanse, tone, use an overnight serum if my skins looking dry and then moisturise. This has (rather naughtily) either replaced or mixed in with my year round moisturiser.
My Skin: I'm an oil slick. That doesn't stop me getting extremely dry and bumpy cheeks and forehead. I need something that'll rehydrate without leaving me even more oily than when I started.
This night cream has no odour which I quite like, as unless it's ginger bread or a roast cooking I really don't want to smell it whilst I'm trying to sleep! The consistency is more gel like I've found, which is also quite nice.
I'm in a predicament, though. I've nearly run out of this and I am looking for a more beneficial night cream than just keeping my skin hydrated - also this does help, I want a cream that will make my skin glow and maybe even not need foundation - I'm already getting fed up at the transfer I seem to put on my winter scarves!
