Now that we have been in isolation for a while, I’ve been impulse buying! I am sure many others are doing the same, but surrounded by advertisements tailored for exactly what I want with nowhere to go in the evenings have made for some great shopping hauls. I normally get a variety of bath products from Lush, but as they are no longer operating until the pandemic is over, I went looking for something new for my baths. Feeling a bit more into self-care, I picked up a few products beyond my usual body butter from The Body Shop to play around with.

Dr. Martin Schwarz Teeth Whitening Kit | Review
[Ad- gifted product] During this lock down, we have been taking the time to do some self care. Taking care of our bodies and minds often gets put aside, but during lock downs, where there is more time stuck at home, it’s important to keep up with your hygiene even more then ever. Both Dann and I tired out the Dr. Martin Schwarz Teeth Whitening kits, which come across a few different products; a bioscaling kit, an expert 38% whitening kit and some mouth trays. Neither of us had ever done this process before, so it was an interesting ride if I am honest!

BETAFEM Daily Feminine Wash | Review
[Ad- gifted product] When it comes to staying clean and cleaning myself, I have always been pretty brand loyal and used a variety of different products depending on what part of my body that I am washing. Having shampoo and conditioner that reacts well with my hair is important to me, as is having separate body wash, face wash, and wash for intimate areas. The skin on your face has different needs than your hair, your intimate areas have different needs to your skin else where. Having different soaps to clean different parts of your body has always just made sense to me. BETAFEM is not a brand I had heard about previously, but when they reached out I wanted to try their feminine wash and see how it was compared to what I had already been using as the brand I had been previously using was one that I wasn’t 100% happy with, if I am honest.
A Day Out at Cecily Beauty & Relaxation Spa
[Ad- gifted experience] The Cecily Beauty and Relaxation spa has been recently refurbished, so both Claire and I were invited to a day out to try out their relaxing services and see the new look. There is a lot to do at this spa from body treatments to lashes, to pedicures, to piercings and spray tans. There are so many ways to indulge in self care and relaxation. Partnered with the Alchemy & i blow dry and bubbles, it’s the perfect place to book a day all about treating yourself.
The Alchemy & i blow dry and bubbles lounge is an area where you can get your hair styled and blow dried, while also sipping on delicious cocktails and bubbly drinks. This is like the ultimate bar for those who want to look fabulous. I didn’t end up getting a blow dry and spent my time in the Cecily spa, but still found this concept to be lovely and will be back to try out this area in the future.

Tutti Rouge Lingerie: Eva Yellow Set & Liliana Creme Bra | Review
[Ad- gifted product] As someone with a larger body, finding bras that are comfortable and sexy is sometimes a challenge. Often you end up sacrificing the look of your bras for comfort or paying silly amounts of money for something that looks good and feels great. Some people find trying on bras really uncomfortable, and with the amount of online stores, it’s easy to just order something and hope it’s up to the quality and standard you’d like. When Tutti Rouge reached out looking for people to review their lingerie, I was excited to try out some new clothing!
I ended up picking out a bralette set in yellow, which featured a full figured like myself as a model, as well as a simple creme bra. These undergarments came in a cute bag, quickly and were quite cheaply priced, considering the quality of the material and cut. The website, when it came to navigation, was a bit confusing. On one page, you can select the size that you want to purchase, but often that page that you are sent too doesn’t show all of the bras you could pick from. The bralette set that I picked doesn’t actually show up in a set size on the site, as it is a bralette, so the item can cover across three different cup sizes. This means that it does not appear in any of the three categories, which is a shame as some sizes seem like there is little to nothing to choose form, so if you want more choices, it’s better to start looking through undergarments you like.
