Löwengrip Review

Löwengrip is a brand that was started by Isabella Löwengrip. A beauty venture that in just a couple of years has become one of the leading brands in the Nordics. The brand offers amazing quality products that are suitable for even the most sensitive skin and scalp. Löwengrip creates its own  recipes, which are formulated together with real people, through a process of detailed social media communication and feedback. I've been using two products from the brand for about month now and I am in love.

Lowengrip UK Hair Mask Review


Using a hair mask in my hair routine, was never something that I thought I would need. However, this particular one has made a big difference to the health of my hair. The main ingredients are shea butter, which is very nourishing and bamboo extract to help repair, regenerate and protect damaged hair. A weird but wonderful ingredient also inside is sunflower oil, which retains moisture in the hair while argan oil and apple seed oil provide suppleness and shine. All of these together give you tangle free, soft and healthy looking hair. 

I tested this in a really odd way. The first week, I used it three times - at the same time as shampooing my hair. The mask is to be used after shampoo and before conditioner. My hair felt soft, silky and no need for conditioner. Then the second and third time, I used the hair mask on Sunday and this time used a real good handful. I found that this gave my hair a boost and I didn't have to wash it for the next week! I didn't believe this, so the next week the mask wasn't included in my routine - and I ended up washing it twice again that week. The following week, I used the mask again and didn't wash my hair for the week. Can you spot the pattern? 

Its amazing that just one product has changed my whole hair! 
Lowengrip Body Balm Review


I am such a moisturiser hoarder, from face to body - I need them all. Sometimes, I think that I have way more than I need but never mind. This balm gives the skin nourishment. It is enriched with MICRO PROSkin, which is a strong blend of prebiotics and probiotics - which smoothes the texture of the skin. It also gives the skin a slight glow, nothing too in your face but a little shimmer. This would be lovely to wear and layer up in the winter. I love applying this on my legs, to make them look less boring and dull.  It also smells incredible, with notes of honey and musk, your skin just lifts with this gorgeous scent. 

I have been super impressed by both of these Löwengrip products, they do the job, look gorgeous on my shelf with the rose gold packaging and smell so good.

Diwali Eyes

Happy Diwali! Well, it was technically yesterday but still Happy Diwali! I was at work all day, but we celebrated in the evening and will be carrying on at the weekend because why not. I kept my base very simple as I wanted the focus to be on the eyes. With a stunning palette that screams evening, some fluttery lashes and gold liner why wouldn't they be the focus!

Bedtime Rituals

A few weeks ago, the most random parcel arrived at my doorstep. It was from REN Skincare in the US. I was so confused, as I haven't given them my address. Then I got a sense of excitement because REN are one brand, I have always wanted to try. Soon after, I got confused again. As you can tell, I am still a bit all over the place - but I wanted to say thank you - if you're reading this and sent me this parcel because my sleeping pattern and bedtime routine has never been better. Since, going back after half term my body has managed to get itself into a routine and doing little things before going to bed has made the biggest difference to my quality of sleep.

Pixi Toner Trio

Happy November! I really can't believe that there is only this month and next left of this year, it is going by way to fast. As November welcomes us, the skincare gods are crying out to us to start looking after the layers of our skin and that starts today. Right now. I had a bit of a pinch me moment last month, when Pixi very kindly sent me their toner family - still can't get my head around it. I have been trialling, testing and trying these and now have some things to tell you...

Currently Loving #5

I am awful at favourites posts! Always forget when it comes to the end of the month, which products I have been loving and then I always fear that I'll have forgotten something. Not this month, I actually remembered what I have been loving and its a real mix of beauty and fashion along with lifestyle. 

Cerave Hits & Misses

CeraVe, born and raised in the US has finally made its way over to the UK! I am so excited, its a brand that I have always heard good things about and now it is available in Boots, Look Fantastic and Feel Unique. Nearly everything is under £15 and you are getting exactly what you pay for. High quality ingredients, fast action products and amazing results. I discovered their cleanser at the start of this year, I want to say and since then have been addicted to it.This is a post round up of some of their products, the good and the not so good for my skin (combination oily).
