1. & Other Stories, Punk Bouquet Body Scrub
This smells SO GOOD and their body scrubs are probably one of my favourites out there. Thats a statement and trust me, I've tried a lot.  There's loads of scents and other body products too and would highly recommend to any one in need of a new scrub - go buy!

2. Korres Guava Body Butter
I'm all about the body butter and never the body lotion, skin feels soft and most importantly it smells like a tropical holiday. Come on summer, where you at?

3. Cowshed Grumpy Cow Shower Scrub
Another scrub you ask?  Why yes! I originally bought this one first, then picked up the & other stories one as a back up. This is a less abrasive exfoliator more for everyday type use, but generally speaking I prefer to whack on the gloves and scrub away until I'm red all over with something a bit more powerful (like the & other stories scrub) but lets not rule this one out just yet.

4. Vita Liberata Body Blur Instant HD Skin Finish 
I got this for £7?!? A steal! I've heard some good things about the Vita Liberata products recently so I snapped this up to try, its been compared to the Sally Hansens airbrush legs (which is unreal if you haven't tried it by the way). Welcome to Olivia's self tanning shelf, Vita. I think we will get along just fine.

5. Nars Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturiser (shade Finland)
I want to veer away from wearing foundation everyday for work but I still want to wear something to even out my complexion and figured a tinted moisturiser may be the way. I've only just got and used it a couple of times, but it covers up redness without looking cakey and lets the skin show through with a radiant finish. Beware for fellow oily skin types however, this guy needs powdering down. 

6. NYX Worth the Hype Mascara
Purchased on a whim, but giving it that name is bold. And I like bold. I also like long volumised lashes, so it shall be put to the test!

7. L'Oreal Infalliable Stick Foundation
I wanted to give a stick foundation another go but this time, not shelling out a lot of money to decide I hated the finish on my skin, *cough makeup forever cough*.  I've had some time to forget and I'm moving on, and before I write off the stick foundations as whole for my skin, I wanted to give another one a go. The one I really wanted to try was the Makeup Revolution stick that everyone is raving about, but that has been and probably will continue to be sold out for forever more. Or at very least a few more weeks and I'm too impatient to hang around.

8. Isle of Paradise Self Tanning Drops (shade light)
Yes another tanning product, but you have to understand, this one is different from the rest! I promise! Or least it claims to be. Confused and intrigued at the same about the results - which is likely to be my next post, stay tuned. 

9. Dermalogica Clear Start Overnight Treatment
I struggle with my night skincare, because my skin can not handle a remotely heavy serum/oil/moisturiser without clogging my pores and breaking me out but I always feel like by not adding something on I'm skipping a step. Cue this guy, I'm hoping this will fill the void and help out my current congested skin.
