Considering this blog of mine actually started life as a beauty product review blog, I have to admit - I am pretty slack when it comes to keeping on top of beauty chores!
Before I had children I would spend a small fortune on the best new cosmetics and skin care products, and spend every other night dutifully painting and filing my nails, exfoliating and so on.
But lately? I'll be honest. I tend to paint my nails around once a month if that, and it's rare I do any sort of skincare regime unless taking my make up off with a baby wipe before I collapse into bed counts.
But I'm the wrong side of 30 now, and I'm repeatedly being offered "anti-ageing" skin treatments when I visit beauty counters which has made me think that perhaps it's time I started to look after myself a little bit more...so when I was offered the chance to try out a new product from Sanctuary Spa which specifically designed for women who don't have time to moisturise I was sold!
Moisturising is absolutely one of those beauty tasks that I just never seem to find the time for. Infact I have approximately 47,000 unopened bottles of body lotion under my bed from various Christmas gift sets - I always take out the perfume and throw the body butters and lotions out of sight, because really...who has time to spend 10 minutes lovingly rubbing lotion into their body and then waiting another 10 minutes for it to soak in?!
Nope, ain't nobody got time for that around here!
But the Wet Skin Moisture Miracle promised to be different - so I gave it a go.
And different it certainly was - for a start I didn't need to dry off before using this moisturiser at all, infact all I had to do was shower as normal, and then apply the lotion straight away.
Then you simply dry off as normal, and you're good to go.
I thought it sounded too good to be true at first and was convinced I'd be left feeling sticky, but I wasn't at all. As soon as I came out of the bathroom I was complimented by my 4 year old who declared "Mummy you smell beautiful!" - and I did! The scent isn't overpowering at all, but it's enough to notice and it really left me feeling confident.
My skin felt lovely afterwards, and considering how quick & easy this is to use I'm determined to keep on using it - it took seconds as it glides so easily onto wet skin and a little really does go a long way, and I do think it's made a noticeable difference to my skin.
If, like me, you're short on time and skip things like moisturising as a result - I'd highly recommend giving Wet Skin Moisture Miracle a try.
It usually retails for £8 but until August 1st you can try it for the introductory price of £5 at Boots.
