Bio oil review

Hello everyone, here's my review of the 60ml bio oil I was sent a few weeks back.

I started using the bio oil the day that it arrived, I thought that it would just be a sachet style sample not a full size product, as you can imagine I was chuffed to bits to receive it. It's RRP is £7.99 for 60ml.
This is the bio oil product I received

ive been using this product for 4 months now and i can seriously say that my strech marks are just thin lines that you can hardly see now which im chuffed about if i do say so my self. I would throughly recommend using bio oil through out pregnancy or if youve just got stretch marks from puberty etc.

i feel alot more confident within myself now when going swimming or in the gym.

thanks for reading guys

Weekend Excitement

Hello guys

A quick Apology for this post as its not freebie or review based.

I just wanted to share my exciting news with you all, as some of you may know my boyfriend is away at the moment so ive not seen him for 3 months but hes been sending all sorts of gifts to me and my most favorite one has to be the keyring he sent me and the uniqueness of how he did what he did.

here it is
Yes the Keyrings are  correct, he did propose using these. hes promised that when he gets home in a few months from working away that he will go and speak to my dad about marrying me and do it properly.  he has sent me a temporary ring until he gets home which i love so much already.

excuse the scratches (bloody cat)
the past two and a half years have really meant so much and i cant wait for the future with my gorgeous prince charming


so from myself and Trewen 
speak soon and thanks for reading



Keep It Kind Deodorant

Hello Guys

Welcome back to my blog, i hope you all had a good weekend. i try to keep my weekends quite while my boyfriend is away but this weekend was a bit more exciting but ill do another post about us and my weekend.

 Last week i received an exciting parcel from Roberta Harris who runs a company called Keep It Kind. The company manufacture deodorants for pre-teens and teenagers aged between 8-14. Their Deodorants are free from aluminum and parabens and do not contain any Alcohol which means they are safe for developing skin.

I contacted Roberta on behalf of my step-sister who has just turned 12. shes just started secondary school and started puberty and was worried about not fitting in with her friends and not feeling fresh after PE lessons and just in general in the day. Roberta was ever so kind and sent her 3 different deodorants to try. she sent the kids fresh roll on, the missy roll on and the missy spray. My step-sister was so happy when i gave them to her. she started to use the spray straight away. she was really impressed and to be honest I was also with the really nice scent of it.
She used the roll on deodorant after having a shower and she said it wasnt making her skin sore or itchy like other roll on's shes tried in the past.

here is what Roberta Kindly sent 

My step sister would thoroughly recommend Keep It Kind to any teenagers her age as she said they make her feel like shes fresh all day long

once again thank you Roberta and keep up the hard work, we would love to review any future products which you may have out

thanks for reading

zebra pens review

Good morning guys and welcome back to my blog.

Today i will be reviewing 3 pens that i received from Zebra pens. i contacted this company as some of you know from my YouTube channel last october I had a major operation on my left thumb which meant i had a ligament reconstruction. It was a very painful experience and i found it hard to find pens which were comfortable to hold with the metal pins in thumb, So i contacted them to explain my situation and also to explain that i was also left handed and i find that most pens i use make the ink get dragged across the page as i write, and i was contacted back by a lovely lady called Joanne, she was very kind and explained about the pens that theyve just released which is a gel ink but it dries really quickly without the risk of the ink dragging about the page which i was really impressed about trying. Joanne kindly sent out the pens the same day which i was excited about receiving.

The following day the pens arrived and heres what i got

the top Zebra print pen is a Z pen which is like a normal rollerball pen
and the two below are the new gel ink pen.
I started using them straight away was really impressed which the way I felt comfortable while writing with them, usually after a while i start feeling achy but not with these pens.

since getting these samples I have been out and purchased a 10 pack of the Z pens for work as they were ever so comfortable to use.

I just want to say a massive thank you to Joanne and your colleagues and i would love to try and more pens which you have to offer.

thanks for reading guys and happy reviewing and freebieing

Water wipes review

hello guys

hope your all well, this is my first blog post in about 8 weeks just down to been so busy at work and not really have much time to get any review items. but today ive got a couple of items to review for you all.

ill be starting with the massive amount of items i got from water wipes. I contacted them only early last week and on friday i came home to a massive box, inside was a 4 pack of the waterwipes themselves which retails at about £8 in boots and 4 packs of the sensitive make up remover wipes which can be used as general face wipes also.

only 3 of the make up remover wipes remain as ive started to use them already and i have a pack of waterwipes already open too.

i love using this wipes, i feel that my skin does not feel dry or tight after using them like you can get with other brands of wetwipes, i suffer from very dry skin and also suffer from eczema on my face so i need to be particularly careful with what products i use on my face.

Baby wipes contain a huge amount of ingredients of which a lot of them are harsh chemicals. Baby’s skin is 5 to 7 times thinner than an adult skin. If you consider you may change baby up to 10 times a day, that’s 70 diaper changes a week. This is a lot of chemicals to apply on baby’s skin. Especially from birth. An adult would not do it on their own skin so why would you on a baby’s skin.
Some of the main baby wipes brands, eco-friendly, organic or so called ‘natural’ baby wipes brand you may have at home or your local Target store still contain a lot of chemicals. Harsh chemicals.
WaterWipes are the only baby wipes containing no chemicals but only two ingredients: purified water @ 99.9% and Grapefruit seed extract @ 0.1% . That’s it! Nothing else!
WaterWipes can be used by anyone who have a sensitive skin, from newborn babies to toddler, children and adults. WaterWipes is the only baby wipe to be ever approved by the independent Allergy UK which means that anyone with a skin condition like eczema, psioriasis, dermatitis, ect can use WaterWipes without any harm , rash, sting or tight effect. It is just pure water.

here is waterwipes facebook page you can also have a look at

Rebel kitchen chocolate mylk review

Last week I contacted a lovely company called Rebel Kitchen. They are a company that produce various flavours of milk shake which are dairy free as they use coconut milk. The range are named -Mylk. They produce a range of kids mylk which include choco mylk, banana mylk and orange choco mylk.they also produce adult mylk which include chocolate, green tea and chai flavoured mylks.

I was kindly sent a kids choco mylk. I didn't actually review this my self but got my brother who is 3 and a half to give this an honest review as he loves chocolate milk. His first impressions were that he loved the coconut on the front he found it hilarious. At first he wasn't sure on the taste but as he got used to the taste he really started to enjoy it. As you can imagine it didn't last him long. I asked him what he thought of it and here is his exact reviews. " it was super yummy and my tummy really liked it, do we have more". 

I would include a picture of him drinking it but do not want his face put on the internet. 



Thank you for reading my blog and thank you rebel 
kitchen for sending this product

Denman classic styling brush

I received this Denman styling brush which retail at approximately £7.50 on Friday (6/6). I started to use this straight away as I had just got out the shower. 

I loved the shape of the brush and the colours as they don't make it look an eyesore like some brushes you can buy. The bristles and hard but do not hurt when using the brush which is what I expect in a hair brush especially if you get tangles in your hair.

I found that the brush got the tangles were got rid of quickly and easy and more effectively than my usual hair brush. It did not leave any tangles in my hair like my usual brush which I was over the moon with.


I thoroughly enjoyed using this brush and will continue using it for as long as it lasts. I would recommend to anyone to use Denman brushes when purchasing a new brush.

Batiste dry shampoo review

Last week I  contacted a lovely lady called Lisa asking if i could review their dry shampoo and Xxl volume powder. 

On Thursday my two chosen varieties arrived. I chose to review the new pixie Lott spray which I started to use on Thursday evening. The smell was amazing and did not smell like the usual dry shampoo smell. It had a kind smell of flowers and was also very fruity. I found it very light on my hair and didn't weigh my hair down like other brands. It lasted overnight and all day on Friday which was brilliant.

My second chosen Product was the XXl volume spray. I used this along side the XXl powder on Sunday morning. It gave my hair an instant boost and made my hair look shiny and healthy and looked perfect for the baptism we attended.

The only downside I would say is that there isn't enough powder in the XXl powder but apart from that I am thoroughly enjoying using these products.

Thank you Lisa  for sending out these products for me to try 

Here is the products I reviewed

Femfresh review

Today I tried the femfresh ultimate care wash for the first time. I was pleasantly surprised by the fragrance, I found that the wash was gentle and kind and I found that it wasn't irritable like quite a lot of washes and shower products.

I would thoughly recommend using this wash if you have any skin issues such as sensitive skin or eczema. It has not made my skin flare up which is fantastic and I felt refreshed and clean after using it. 

I didn't find any faults in this product so can not give any negative feed back.

Thank you for reading  :) 

I promise i will do a freebies post this weekend

Welcome back

A big good evening to you all!

I want to start with a massive apology from myself as I haven't really updated the blog recently but I have been learning how to use it properly this week so can update it whenever I get some products to review and get freebies and samples.

To start with I've received some fantastic freebies and samples which I can include some photos of a few of them as I haven't taken photos of them all yet and also I've written to a few companies looking to review any products to review.

The first freebie on Saturday was some really pretty fabric samples from www.sanderson-uk.com
I'm going to use these samples as part of a scrapbook I'm making. Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of these but I'll add them on my next post.

The next freebie I received was from purina for a free 400g bag of the feline range.
Free bag of cat food.

The next freebie was from a complaint to Jacobs the cracker manufacturer after buying 3 packs of cream crackers and all but a few were smashed up. They were very generous by sending me £6.00 in money off vouchers to replace the damaged ones.i can also use these off mcvities,go ahead, carrs and crawfords so these will come in handy.
£6.00 of vouchers 

My next freebie of Saturday was two 10 wipes packs of limited edition femfresh which were a freebie on magic freebies and latest free stuff, they were still free on the femfresh website http://femfresh.co.uk.
2 limited edition packs of femfresh wipes.
Well that's all for today. Thank you for reading.
