Found Honey I Washed The Kids ( HIWTK)  on ebay! It was so much cheaper than buying it off the UK Lush site and man oh man since the seller was local I got this in 2 days ! Yippie!

I’ve been meaning to get a whiff of the original HIWTK cause all I had to go by were the dupes I had been ordering from Etsy and man oh man, I LOVE the TOFFEE RICH smell and Honey Comb Top!! Adorable People :) The stuff permeates my bathroom with the most amazing rich toffee treat scent and I love it ! It makes me want to eat it !! Bad bad bad…

Anyhoo, I’ve just received a few more parcels too. My family thinks I’m going nuts ordering so much stuff online but in actuality I haven’t been out shopping for months and every parcel that comes marks a date approaching my baby’s arrival! hehehe Excuses Excuses!

I’ve got some Haus of Gloi Sugar Scrubs( Smells Divine) & MakeUpArtistChoice TCA Peels & Glycolic Products!  I ordered the TCA  and Glycolic 40% and will use them only after delivery. Really excited about these but I heard the peeling can get pretty nasty. My  skin tolerated 35% glycolic pretty well the last time so I don’t think 40% is going to really make me look scaly but I’m not quite sure about TCA. It will be my first time using it.

The long awaited weekend is here babes!!! I’m going baby shopping and here are 3 looks I did – one brownish black, one blue and a brownish yellow look! * Note to self – I will trim my brows soon :P   Loreal Super Liner works so well!! I was using a Sephora liquid liner initially but I had to switch !

:(  Sephora liquid liner stings my lids and that sucks! :<

Clearer Skin with Peels

I was surfing online when I stumbled across this website that was selling quite an assortment of DIY home peels. While exchanging emails with a  good friend, it struck me that I had paid a few hundred dollars to get peels done at a fancy clinic and I even had to forgo one session because I discovered that I was pregnant.  So, that’s around 100 bucks down the drain! After stumbling across makeupartistchoice.com, I found their testimonial page pretty impressive with a number of before and after pictures. As I am a true and firm believer of peels for acne scarring, pigmentation and any form of skin irregularities, I found myself itching to buy some stuff! 

Look at this before and after picture. Pretty impressive stuff. I’m pretty tempted to try out the glycolic, TCA and pumpkin scrub from this company. Anyone tried their products before??

On a side note: b.liv from Cellnique was very generous and sent me 3 products to review. Products were aimed at addressing my black\white heads on the nose and occasional spots. I’ve asked and they have mentioned that it is safe to use b.liv products during pregnancy but I’m not too sure about  the spot treatment one which contains Salicylic acid ( which I am trying to avoid). I’m going to try the other 2 products for a month plus and I’ll get back on the results.
