Kiehl's Skin Rescuer Launch

The Kiehl's Counter in Selfridges, Manchester

Champagne & Orange Juice while learning about Kiehl's

Pop into your local Kiehl's for a skin consultation

On Tuesday 6th August, I was invited to the Kiehl's counter in Selfridges, Manchester to celebrate the launch of Skin Rescuer. I was looking forward to the event as I didn't really know anything about the brand and I hadn't used any of their products before. When I arrived, I was offered a drink of Champagne or orange juice. (I chose orange juice as I don't drink but it was delicious, freshly squeezed orange juice in a Champagne flute.) We were split into two smaller groups to learn more about Kiehl's as a brand and it's history, and to learn about Skin Rescuer; their brand new product. 




Kiehl's began in 1851 and has NEVER advertised! I found this fact fascinating because even before I started blogging, I had heard of the brand. They rely on word of mouth, which obviously works because they have been around for over 160 years. That just shows how great their products are! Kiehl's focuses on skin care but they also have body and hair care products. We were shown some of the brands best selling products including the Midnight Recovery Concentrate, which we received a sample of and I'm looking forward to trying, and Creme de Corps, which is a super-enriched, nourishing treatment with a creamy buttery texture for drier skin. 



Mr Bones

We were told that Kiehl's don't follow 'trends' in beauty, they only create a product if there is a real demand for it. After conducting a survey, they found that there was one common factor in most people's lives - stress. I admit I suffer from stress. Who doesn't in this busy, fast paced environment that we live in? Skin Rescuer has been developed to protect the skin against external stresses. It's all very scientific, too scientific for me to understand! But it actively works to minimise the appearance of the visible signs of stress with key ingredients to promote a healthy, strong skin barrier function. Visible signs of stressed skin can be; dryness, redness, blotchiness, skin that appears more tired or dull and/or with more pronounced lines. 

Do you suffer from stressed skin? You can pick up Skin Rescuer from your local Kiehl's counter or online.

The amazing goodie bag! Thank you Kiehl's!

Red Hot World Buffet Tastemaker Programme



Last week, I received some amazing news - I have been selected to be a Red Hot World Buffet Tastemaker! I was over the moon to have been selected as I have visited the Manchester restaurant on several occasions. For those who haven't heard of Red Hot World Buffet (where have you been?!), it's basically an all you can eat buffet featuring foods from all over the world. You can view their amazing menu here. They have seven restaurants across the UK; Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Cardiff, Milton Keynes, Northampton and Nottingham. If you would like to book a table, you can do so online here. I have booked in for my first Tastemaker visit on the 8th September, which is my birthday and it's my blog's 1st birthday on the 5th, so it's a double celebration. I can't wait! Look out for a review sometime after the 8th September!



Red Hot World Buffet have a fantastic offer on this Summer. Kids aged 16 and under can eat for half price; that’s from as little as £3.99 for limitless pizza, pasta, curry, salads, desserts and ice cream (prices vary according to restaurant, day and time).

Wish List #4


Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm // Liz Earle Botanical Shine Treatment // Barry M Sequin Nail Effects Nail Paint in White // L'Oreal Micellar Solution // Clarins Gentle Exfoliator Brightening Toner // Liz Earle Botanical Shine Nourishing Hair Oil

I haven't done a wish list in a long time and I'm pretty skint at the moment so I thought I would share some of the items that I am lusting after! How does shopping the stash work? I think I'm going to need to do that! 

Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm - The only reason these are in my wish list is because I have fallen into the hype. I know they are only a lip balm but so is the Korres Lip Butter really, and that's amazing. I want to see what all the fuss is about. I'll only buy one, not six, but I haven't decided which one I want just yet. My choice will be made purely on  the scent! 

Liz Earle Botanical Shine Treatment - I have been using the Liz Earle Shampoo and Conditioner for about two months now and you can read what I think here. Within the Liz Earle haircare there are also treatments, this being one of them. It is for frizzy, coarse or unruly hair, which are three perfect words to describe my hair! 

Barry M Sequin Nail Effects Nail Paint in White - How pretty is this nail polish? I've seen lots of swatches online and I need it in my life! Despite knowing how difficult glitter nail polish is to remove, I still want it. Barry M have created some beautiful nail polishes lately.

L'Oreal Micellar Solution - I already have three micellar waters. Does this stop me wanting to try another one? No. I want to try it just to compare it to the others I have. Two of the ones I own are higher end or harder to get hold off (I'm talking about you Bioderma). If L'Oreal have created one that is just as good, I can save my money to spend elsewhere!

Clarins Gentle Exfoliator Brightening Toner - I need this is my life! I keep reading more and more about the harsh effects of manual exfoliators. I need to experience just how good this one is! So much hype surrounding it.

Liz Earle Botanical Shine Nourishing Hair Oil - Another Liz Earle haircare treatment that I need in my life! This is their hair oil and it's suitable for all hair types. Oils are everywhere at the moment and not just for your hair. This one smoothes hair, protects hair from heat damage and even cuts down on the time it takes to dry your hair! 

What products are on your wish list? Have you used any of these products? Are they worth buying/the hype? What products should I add to my list?
