What's in my Bathroom? Products I'm Using Now

I love reading posts about what people are using right now, but shamefully, I've never done one myself.  So here goes...

Cleansing and Scrubbing

At the moment, I have two cleansers on the go - Polishing Hot Cloth Cleanser from The Sanctuary and Visibly Clear 2-in-1 from Neutrogena.  I've only just started using The Sanctuary one, but I've been using the Neutrogena one for a while and I really like it.  I'm using Liz Earle's Instant Boost Skin Tonic as a toner, which I've reviewed before and I love.  For exfoliation, I use Origins Modern Friction about once a week, and Radience Exfoliator from The Sanctuary daily - I'm trying to use up The Sanctuary one, as I don't really like it.

Moisturising

I got two serums last week - Kiehl's Ultra Facial Micro Serum and Nourishing Facial Serum from Doozle.  I'm currently using the Kiehl's in the morning, and the Doozle in the evening, and liking them both.  I've got four moisturisers on the go - I'm using Liz Earle's Skin Repair Moisturiser mainly as a night cream, and The Sanctuary's Illuminating Moisture Lotion, Origins' A Perfect World and No. 7's Protect and Perfect Day Cream all during the day.  The No. 7 one is my current Sunday Sample.  All are pretty nice and I'd repurchase all of them bar the No. 7 one.

Shower

I'm currently using two shower gels - Nivea Happy Time, which is from my stash and is a bog-standard, pretty nice shower gel, and Body America's New York Cheesecake which I got last week.  I quite like the look and feel of the Body America one, and it has a foaming pump which I love.  However, I'm not convinced on the smell yet - it's strawberry scented, and although it contains real strawberries, it has a slightly artificial smell that doesn't wow me.  For my body scrub, I'm using The Body Shop's Shea Body Scrub which I recently raved about and I still love.

Hair

I'm using a huge array of hair products at the moment.  I'm using 2 shampoos - one from Aussie which is really nice, and one from Naked which I hate.  I really need to just finish it up - there's not much left!  I've got loads of conditioners on the go - Aussie 3 Minute Miracle, Liz Earle for dry hair, Timotei Revive, half a tube of Colour Lock Conditioner and Bumble and Bumble Creme de Coco Masque as my treatment.  I like the Aussie one - I've used it before; I love the Liz Earle one - this is my third repurchase; the Timotei one is the last of a huge stash of 6 Timotei conditioners I bought last year - I used to love them, but now I find them blah.  I've used the Bumble and Bumble Masque twice now, and I absolutely love it.  I'll do a full review shortly.

I'm still loving Morroccan Oil, and use it everytime I wash my hair.  I've got a L'Oreal Tec ni art serum that I occasionally use when I remember, but tends to be a bit greasy.  I've also got a L'Oreal Tec ni art straightening balm (not pictured) which I also find makes my hair slightly greasy.  I'm still loving Flirty Curls Scrunching Jelly from Umberto Giannini that I use when I natural dry my hair for curls.  I've got a mini Charles Worthington hairspray - I need to buy a full sized hairspray as this is all I have, raided from my minature stash.

So despite my best efforts with my Beauty Diet earlier this year, I seem to have loads of products open and on the go again.  Perhaps I should restart it to at least clear my conditioner shelf!

Haulage - Nars, Kiehl's and Bumble and Bumble

Yesterday I wrote about my hauls at Doozle and House of Fraser.  Today my order from Space NK arrived – I know, I’ve been a very naughty girl!  I decided to treat myself to some bits from Kiehls, Bumble & Bumble and Nars.

From Kiehl’s I got Lip Balm #1 and Ultra Facial Micro Serum.  These cost £9.50 and £29.00 respectively.  I’ve been wanting to try some things from Kiehl’s for ages, so it seemed a good opportunity to pick up these bits.  

Whilst I was browsing, it occurred to me that I needed a hair treatment – I’m still growing my hair and it really needs a trim, as well as regularly abusing it with highlights and colour.  I spotted a Bumble and Bumble Creme de Coca Masque and thought that would be perfect, so I bought it for £20.50.  I used it for the first time this evening, and I have to say I was totally wowed by this product – I want to use it a few more times to be sure, but this has potential to be my HG hair treatment!

I also treated myself to a blusher from Nars in Deep Throat – my first Nars purchase!  I’d swatched them before in the shop, and had preferred Deep Throat to Orgasm.  This cost £20.50, so it’s pricy, but it does look very pretty!

I also got some free samples included in my package – Acqua di Parma Cologne, Chantecaill Jasmin and Lilly Healing Mask and Wei White Lotion Eye Blend.  I love free samples, and I’m particularly excited to try the Chantecaill Mask as it retails for £120!!!

Have you tried any of these products before?  What are your thoughts?
