A 'Boring But Essential' Beauty Haul

Shower gel, deodorant, toner... all things I always need but find they are pretty basic, boring items to shop for sometimes. I seem to finish products all at the same time, so I tend to grab my essentials altogether when I am shopping at Boots or Superdrug. Even though these items might not be too interesting, I do buy most of them regularly so I thought it could be interesting for you to have a peak at some of my every day essential repurchases and a few new buys.

Boots Essentials Nail Polish Remover
This is just the cheapest nail polish remover I have tried that actually works well. It removes nail polish very easily, and even removes glitter polishes too.

Dove Deeply Nourishing Body Wash
I use a variety of body washes and tend to pick up whatever is on offer. I really love Dove and this body wash is probably one of their best products ever.

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water
I haven't tried this micellar water before so as it was just £1, I popped it in my basket to give it a go. I thought I would pick up the smaller 125ml bottle as it is ideal to try out for the first time.

Boots Therapy Moisturise Shower Gel
Another body wash, I know I know. I really like this one, it has jojoba oils as the main scent which smells great and it is so relaxing for an evening bath.

Boots Compressed 48hr Citrus Anti-Perspirant
I have tried Boots deodorants before and they have always done the job, so I decided to buy this citrus scented spray this time. It smells nice, so that's a good sign!

Garnier Roll On Anti Dark Circles

Dark circles are the bane of life, aren't they?

No matter how much sleep I have, or how well I look after my face during my skin care routine, I still have huge dark circles under my eyes. I am forever reapplying concealer to my under eyes to hide them away. My sister picked up the Garnier Roll On Anti - Dark Circles for me a few weeks ago; I had never really delved into trying many Garnier products so I was interested to see how well this worked. 

This product has a roller ball appliance to apply the product to under the eye. This is great as it doesn't pull on the delicate skin, and is super easy to use. It feels very cold which is quite a nice cooling sensation too. To apply, you simply roll in a circular motion under the eyes, then gently blend it into the skin with your fingers. 

I feel that it refreshes under the eyes making me look less tired and a little more awake. The product itself really helps to cover the dark circles.
