Here's a round up of the beauty products I've been using recently.

| Pore Refining Solutions Correcting Serum £39 From Clinique BUY HERE |
Sadly I still suffer with spots and problem skin, I had hoped my skin would clear up with age, alas I'm still dealing with pimples, blackheads and greasiness. So when I saw this serum claiming to reduce the appearance of pores by 30% I was filled with hope. The blend contains an exclusive Pore Resurfacing Complex to clear the skins' surface of a multitude of problems including flakiness, dirt and dullness. It's a very light solution that glides on easily, leaving the skin velvety smooth. Did I notice a reduction in the size of my pores, no. However my skin was smoother and the serum had a mattifying effect that lasted throughout the day.

| Sumptuous Extreme Waterproof Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara £24 from Estee Lauder BUY HERE |
Having a baby has made me a bit of an emotional wreck. I'm blaming it on my hormones, sleep deprivation and all the images of happy people having a lovely time on holiday on Instagram. Over the last 2 months I've cried my fair share of tears. Thankfully I've been using this wonderful mascara from Estee Lauder which means I haven't ended up looking like a crazy mess when the water works start. Not only is the formulation extremely waterproof, it doesn't flake or cause panda eyes, plus it creates super thick 60s style lashes thanks to an exclusive multiplying fibre formulation that adds volume without clumping. The only downside for me is that it takes a bit of work to get all the mascara off at the end of the day.

| Polynesian Monoi Radiance Oil Radiant Body & Hair Oil £16 from The Body Shop BUY HERE |
This multi-tasking hair and body oil smells like a heady tropical island (oh how I'd love to be on a tropical island with sand beneath my toes and a flower in my hair at the moment rather than sitting on my sofa wearing a cashmere sweater with the heating on). It contains the intoxicating scent of monoi oil; a blend of coconut oil and tiare flowers that hydrate the skin. I like to rub it into my body post shower to leave my skin soft and hydrated. It also works wonders on dry hair. Apply it to the end of your hair no less than 30 minutes before washing, then shampoo it out, to leave you with soft and fragrant tresses.
