Product Lust- SUTI Purity Organic Moisturising Balm


This little beauty was dropped through my letterbox as she had heard its good for the skin going though Chemo. 
I honestly felt I couldn't review it during, it only after you start to appreciate the nice things again. 
And SuTi Purity Organic Moisturising Balm is nice. 

The packaging is simple and clean, it suits the product immensely.
The texture has little grains in it, which makes it feel a bit weird.  I really couldn't imagine putting make up on over it, so its strictly for my work from home days, or days off.

These issues aside, its a lovely product, it reminds me of a more natural (and nicer smelling!) Elizabeth Ardens 8 Hour Creme. A little goes a long way- I've had this about 6 months!

Product Lust; Organic Argan Oil

Used for centuries by the people of Morocco, Argan Oil is a luxurious and versatile oil produced from the nuts of the rare Argan Tree. Argan Oil is rich in essential vitamins, especially Vitamin E, and essential unsaturated fatty acids and registered with the Vegan Society. The best part is that this is a multitasking product that can be used on your skin, nails and hair, saving room in tour beauty bag and leaving money in your purse!



Perfect for repairing and fortifying your nails:
My hands and nails get an awful time given the number of times a day I have to wash my hands with alcohol gel in the hospital so this is a great rescue remedy to come home to.
  • Gently rub a very small amount of Argan Oil into the hands and nail cuticles before going to bed.
  • For nails, you can mix Argan Oil with an equal amount of lemon juice, dip your nails into the mixture, and leave for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Then rinse with warm water and towel dry.
  • Repeat this Argan Oil for Nails treatment weekly


Does your skin need some attention too?
Then luckily pure Argan Oil is light and easily absorbed and is a great natural moisturiser.
Gently massage a very small amount of Argan Oil into your body after a shower or a bath, to help retain moisture. You can help yourself to prevent and reduce the appearance of stretch marks.

Don't forget to treat your hair...
Argan Oil is used for dry hair, damaged hair and frizzy hair. I have naturally curly hair that tends to be dry and with the current humidity it tends be be slighlty untamable. This product was a weekend wonder and has my barnet set ready and banish any Monday blues.
  • Simply apply a small amount of pure Argan Oil to wet hair after showering or bathing and comb it through with your fingers.
  • If, like me, you have dry hair, you can leave the Argan Oil in your hair for 20 to 30 minutes. If you have extra dry hair, you can leave the Argan Oil in your hair overnight.
  • Wash out the Argan Oil from your hair with a gentle shampoo, followed by conditioner.

NAIL POLISH by H&M

When I spotted Queen Bey sporting blue nails in honour of Blue Ivy, I was a little obsessed with the colour. Much to my dismay I found out it was yet to be released by Nails Inc. A few weeks later I spotted this little gem while in the queue in H&M for the tidy sum of £2.99 so thought I would grab it to tide me over.



I never bought the Nails Inc one was I was so impressed with the H&M bottle. The colour was impressive, even after one coat although I always lay on two. They have lots more in store and they are so economical it's just good sense to buy them!

Product Lust; DKNY Silver



I have never bought myself perfume.

 Maybe it was because my mother always has several,or maybe it's because the choice is always overwhelming, and after 4 minutes in the perfume department you need a lie down. Either way, I feel its something I have deprived myself of and me, I'm sorry about that.

This one's my favourite at the moment. x

Product Lust; Aveda Tourmaline Charged Radiant Skin Refiner

It's that time of year when the season changes and you begin to find yourself dashing between the rain showers and shielding your delicate self from the harsh winds. That or you live in Cork and it's starting to rain everyday instead of every second day. Either way it's time I started reinvesting in my skincare routine. So this week I went and bought myself Aveda's Tourmaline Charged Radiant Skin Refiner and I'm so glad I did. A creamy, clay-based scrub exfoliates with bamboo extract and energizes with tourmaline to leave skin radiant and refined. It's my new weekly beauty secret...ssshhh!

Product Lust; Redken Extreme





As a girl with fine hair the Redken Extreme range with protein has become my shower time saviour. It gently cleanses to help fortify weakened areas, reinforce surface protection and internal strength and adds shine. Formulated with ceramides and proteins that begin damage control on the inside with a double line defence, it helps prevent further damage and split ends by constantly supplying strength. It's worked to add body, bounce and shine to my tresses.

Product Lust; Trilogy Organic Rosehip Oil

I'm in lust with a new product. It's not the first time, and it won't be the last. I'm hoping for the sake of my skin that its a long lasting relationship. As I mentioned before, I'm a bit phobic of the old lines and wrinkles. I understand they have to arrive, I'm just eager to ease their arrival. So stumbling upon Trilogy Organic Rosehip oil was one hell of a happy coincedence. I love products that have more then one purpose, this one also promises to be good for scars and stretch marks. That's what Bio Oil is for, I hear you say? Indeed, but on the face Bio Oil feels rotten. Rosehip oil feels lovely. Just moisturising enough. It also promises to help with acne scars and UVA damage. I pop a little around the eyes and on the decolletage morning and evening. Makes the skin feel lush. Love it, get it.
