I was extremely sceptical about purchasing this as I have tried the coconut version before and didn't take to it. However, I saw this on discount whilst I was on holiday and couldn't resist the price. I pleasantly surprised. I loved it, it made my hair actually feel and smell amazing. The honey scent is lovely. My only downside is the product is a little bit runny.. I feel like it could be a tad thicker. -

I did recieve this product free but all opinions are completely my own.
So, I have mixed feelings about this. When I first opened the tub I loved how much product was in there... So you do get your money's worth in quantity as if would definitely last you a good amount of uses. Another thing i liked is how thick the product is but yet it coats your hair with a small amount.
So what I did was I used the shampoo and conditioner of the exact same brand that I was also gifted then followed by this... I put the product in the whole of my hair (roots and ends) and left it on for around 5 minutes whilst I continued my shower, then I simply washed it out. For me as its a deep soak masque I was expecting kind of WOW results but I didn't, the results were good but not outstanding. It did make my hair feel nice and soft but just not as much as I was expecting it to be.
A positive of this product of it didn't make my hair greasy at all. Sometimes I find using these kind of things because of how much you put in your hair, no matter how much you wash it out after it just doesn't seem good enough and makes your hair look a little oily. This doesn't. Sometimes they can also make your hair look greasy quicker! Maybe after a day or two... This doesn't.
I do however enjoy the scent of it. It does make my hair smell really nice. I would say I do recommend it if you're looking for something affordable for the amount that you get, or if you want something that you can use often as a usual routine. On the contrary though, I wouldn't recommend it if you want that extreme hydration rescue that's going to leave your hair like silk.

So I did recieve this free, however, all of this review is my complete opinion.
Firstly, what I love about this conditioner is that a little bit does actually go quite a long way... Once applied to my hair I like to massage it into the ends to make sure all of my hair (apart from my roots) are covered and then leave it for a couple of minutes to really sink in. I do suffer with extremely dry, brittle hair - I blame my teenage years - which makes it tangle extremely easily. Once I washed the conditioner out I could instantly tell the different on how detangled and smoother my hair felt!
I used this alongside the John Freida shampoo and together they really do make a noticeable difference. Much like the shampoo, the conditioner makes your hair smell amazing! I would 100% recommend this to anyone with dry hair that needs a bit of hydration, I'm pleasantly surprised. 😊

I did get this free, however, all opinions are completely my own.
Firstly, what I love about this product is how much it lathers up in your hair. I'm that person that tends to shampoo my hair twice just so I know that it's extremely clean. With this John Frieda shampoo I didn't feel like I needed to! It extremely easily foams up in your hair and then washes out with ease which is great. Another thing that I love is that a little bit really does go a long way, which saves money in the long run.
Going onto the impact on my hair... I've used this product 3/4 times now to test it out fairly and I would say that it does feel a lot cleaner and softer but mainly, it smells amazing! (I won't lie, the first time I used it I even made my partner smell my hair).
The bottle is also pretty cute and goes nicely with my bathroom, so win win. I honestly can't find a negative for this shampoo.

I purchased this because I'd seen so many positive things about it. They were not wrong. I use it mostly on my oven top and it's known for getting rid of grease... It does an amazing job. I've never actually seen it look so shiny. One thing I didn't actually know about was the fact it works amazing on stains! Having 2 kids it's an absolute game changer. You just spray it on the stain, leave it for 5 minutes.. Then put it in the wash and it's gone! Amazing! Can't recommend this enough. -

So I decided to try this cleaner out when I heard it was supposed to be pretty great for acne prone skin. On first impressions i would say that it really did make my face feel more hydrated (which is perfect as I have dry skin) and clean... However, I'm not sure how I feel about the fact that is doesn't foam up on the skin in anyway.. For me I quite like that because it feels like I'm actually doing something. I'm sure that wouldn't actually be a problem for anyone else but me.
There aren't any harsh chemicals in this cleanser so it is perfect for sensitive skin, it did help tone down my acne and I didn't suffer with many breakouts which is great.
The consistency is quite runny which I wasn't expecting and for me I would've preferred it to be slightly thicker.

My partner did actually buy me this as an early birthday present surprise and I'm genuinely in love. It's a Shane Dawson x Jeffrey Star Pallete that you can actually watch the process of it being made on Shane Dawson's YouTube channel which was initially what made me want to get it. It felt like I went through the process with them.
So firstly, the packaging was unbelievably perfect with their logo nicely wrapped around the product. The box of the palette is so unique that I don't think you'll be able to find another one like it.
Then going onto the eyeshadows.. The pigmentation is actually amazing! A little goes a long way and without having to tap into the product several times to get the pay off that you want on the eye, you can literally just go into the pan once and you have the amount you need. The colours are beautiful with a range that you can use for multiple looks... Going from natural to glam. There is a little bit of fall out so if 6ou don't like that then maybe this isn't for you but honestly I don't mind it at all!
Overall, the conspiracy Pallete is a success.
The reason I gave it 4 stars for value was simply because on its own the Pallete was around £50 which you can obviously expect for high end make up.. The frustrating part for me was my partner then had to pay a huge fee on top of that just so it could get through customs... Making it even more expensive!

So I initially tried this cleaner because I wanted to see what the huge hype around this brand was, so when I saw it was just £1 in my local Savers, I just had to give it a try!
I'm completey blown away with how well this actually works, honestly, I don't think I've ever actually seen my oven top so clean before and my kitchen sink I can almost see my reflection in it. I love that a little does actually go a long way even with it being completely inexpensive.
One thing I can't actually say for a lot of cleaners is how amazing the smell is. I've actually become obsessed with using it, it's definitely encouraged me to clean more! I will be purchasing a new bottle once this one runs out and Im looking forward to trying the rest of the range!

Firstly, this toy was pretty inexpensive which is great. Im actually quite surprised at how much my son took to it, he was 18 months old at the same and continues to play with it even now at 2. Its brightly coloured, easy to put together and keeps him entertained for a good while! I love the fact it also helps him learn to count. -

I bought this because I had heard so many good things about it so I thought I'd try it for myself. Firstly, they smell insane! And have so many different uses. I tend to poor them down our kitchen sink to disinfect and freshen up the kitchen, I also used it diluted with water today to mop the floor. Complete live saver to disinfect the floor with a little 8 month old crawling around and it filled the house with a lovely scent. -
