Shower Treats

If you were going on holiday, you could always, buy a set of travel bottles and fill them up with your current shower gel. Or you could take the fun route, chuck a few of these cute and colourful Weleda limited edition mini body washes at random in your case and be surprised at your holiday destination.



If you are new to the brand (I am), Weleda is a German organic brand committed to all things natural, organic, eco-friendly, sustainable and fair trade, so committed that they won the Best Ethical Range’ award in the latest Natural Health magazine Beauty Awards 2012.Last year Weleda celebrated their 90 years of existence releasing a Mini Body Oil Gift Set. This year, they have released a set containing five of their best-selling pampering body washes (Citrus, Sea Buckthorn, Pomegranate, Wild Rose and Lavender) all using a cleaning base of coconut, sugar and sesame oil.

To my surprise, you can find Weleda products at Boots but I can't find this mini shower gel gift set online yet. Alternatively, you can get it on Weleda online at £9.95.



Do you know Weleda? Is there a product that you would recommend?


disclosure: I heard about this set by email today and received no compensation to write about it.

Oh my gosh! They are back :)

I am very excited to tell you that the 'Oh My Gosh' mini polishes (£3.49, Superdrug) from Gosh are back. They were first released last year in July and stayed on the shelves for a month, if that, pushing the boundaries of the meaning of 'limited edition' to a whole new level.

Amongst this delightful collection, was a true gem, called
Nude Champagne (shade 22) which was an instant case of love at first swipe. I waxed lyrical about it here. I knew in an instant that I had to get myself a dupe of it. For me, it's just the perfect nude. The problem is that when I went back to the shop, the whole collection had sold ou, and the stand made way for some new stuff. Well, Gosh has re-released some shades, eight new shades according to my shop.
and the shades are:


22 Nude Champagne (reviewed here)
21 Peachy Rose
09 Cobalt Blue
07 Appel Green (photographed below)
11 Electric Pink
20 Light Nutt (I wonder what this shade is?)
18 Brown Grey (photographed below)
02 Classic Red (photographed below)

Please do not take my photo above as reference. I am not sure quite sure what this baby blue (first bottle on the left) is doing in my shop, haven't got a clue about the name of that yellow polish and this pink is definitely not electric. Yes, it's another majectic shamble on the Gosh front. No one knows what's going on, the company on twitter can't help either. But I can't complain. I have been dying to get a spare bottle of nude champagne and I am over the moon. Woop Smile 


Did you get to buy these mini polishes last year? Will you be having some this year?
