The Jojoba Company Hydrating Day Cream Review

I'm a natural kind of girl so am always eager to try out natural products for my face and body so couldn't wait to use up this Jojoba Hydrating Day Cream! With 95% natural ingredients, added vitamins and antioxidants, plus chamomile and green tea extracts i was expecting the cream to sooth my skin, make it look and feel softer and smell great - and it didn't disappoint! The cream is quite thick but not gloopy and has a really light texture when applied, my skin just drinks it up and it leaves no residue or sheen which is ideal for applying make-up over the top. Or even if going bare faced it gives you that bit of extra confidence as it's not shiny and keeps skin matte and fresh, plus it has an SPF15 giving extra protection against harmful UV rays.

The cream also contains beta glucan to increase collagen production, pomegranate for anti-ageing and Siberian ginseng which has an incredible tightening effect on skin - as well as this clinical trials found that the hydrating day cream successfully increased elastin production by 97.5% which is huge! More elastin means fewer lines and wrinkles which i'm keen to keep under control - my skin definitely feels firmer and more taught, plus i've had barely any breakouts too which is amazing - must be the benefits of all of the natural ingredients full of goodness!

I've been using the cream daily and in the evenings too, i've found it to be a great all rounder, and it smells divine too, it gives intense moisture so if your skin needs some extra TLC and an injection of goodness then this is the cream for you - i get really oily skin so thought it may be a little heavy as it is quite concentrated with moisture but it totally isn't, it's super light and absorbs in seconds. My skin is looking super fresh, clear and tighter and firmer too - it's a triple whammy, i'll be purchasing this in the future and am eager to get my paws on the full range The Jojoba Company has to offer!

The Monday Piece - Vintage Band Tee

This week's Monday Piece is on this vintage band tee! An outfit from the weekend also featuring my oh so sassy booties - i know what you're thinking, that it looks like i have no trousers on - but i do have some denim shorts on underneath! I've had this vintage Slayer tee for years and i still love it, it has that worn in feel and chilled out style that always appeals to me - plus Slayer are one of my fave bands so i'll always rep their merchandise! This weekend we went over to Telford for a bit of shopping and a Nando's which was an absolute chicken fest, i picked up a few bits in Zara...shock horror. Then we went to see my Nanna which was so lovely, we had cups of tea and looked at old photos which is always a treat! Then errands day on Sunday getting blog stuff sorted and ready for the week!

Savisto Home Hand Blender Review

I'm quite a keen cook and Nick and i always cook from scratch, we love fresh tasty food so i couldn't wait to give this hand blender from Savisto Home a try. We don't have a blender or anything similar, and often spend countless minutes finely chopping vegetables and herbs - so we instantly started using it for this. This hand blender set includes three unique attachments, each suited to a specific type of ingredient. First up is the powerful blender attachment; with its high speed stainless steel blades, it will make quick work of light ingredients and liquids – perfect for smoothies, drinks, sauces and other mixtures. Also included is the stainless steel whisk attachment; ideal for beating eggs, cream, batter or cake mix, and the food processor; a heavy duty attachment with its own interior blades designed to chop and slice all manner of tough ingredients. Each attachment clicks and clips on and off really easily so it's quick and hassle free to chop and change each attachment when cooking. The 750 watt motor makes it super fast chopping up food in seconds, this is ideal for evenings when we are in a rush but still want something home made and nutritious!

The colour is so pretty and it is fantastic quality, especially for the price on sale at £35.99, each attachment is so well made and it's also really easy to clean. We use it everyday as it's so versatile for preparing sauces, soups, smoothies, as well as chopping up things and baking too. Savisto do a wide range of kitchen products including ice cream makers, cocktail kits and food mixers, the range brings a refreshing and exciting look to everyday kitchenware! I would definitely recommend the hand blender, it saves so much time, is fantastic quality and great value for money, plus it's so easy to use!
