Burt's Bees Radiance Creams• Review

This is my first beauty post and my first review post- two birds, one stone! I came across these moisturisers because my lovely Nan bought me the Burt's Bees Radiance set for christmas that contained samples of the whole range. I've tried so many moisturisers that have made my skin break out, feel heavy and leave my skin looking dull and when I found this and it worked well for me, I was so relieved. It reduces the red pigments in my skin, soothes my skin and also last until the next morning when I wake up! The day cream is water based so quite light and brilliant for oily and combination skin. As it's water based it means I won't break out because of excess oils that are normally in moisturisers. The night cream is just as good but provides that little bit more moisture as you would expect from a night cream. It has a pearlescent look to it which I adore- although the smell isn't so nice! As I said it helps soothe redness and break outs. I have fairly sensitive skin so anything with perfumes will just irritate my skin normally resulting in breakouts, boo.. but because both of these creams are 98.2% natural, I dont have to worry about any perfumes! These are quite pricey at £19.99 a jar but are so worth it. If £19.99 is a bit too much, Waitrose always have offers such as 1/3 off Burt's Bees or buy one get on half price, which kind of takes the guiltyness away.. a bit.

Overall, I would definetly recommend these creams to anyone with normal, combination and oily skin who is looking for a holy grail moisturiser- I swear I'll never switch moisturisers again!

Topshop Wish List• January 2013

1. Topshop Animal Print Strapless Bralet, £22 (Buy Here)

Although it has been snowing non-stop since Friday morning, I've fallen in love with this summery animal print bralet from Topshop. I wouldn't normally go for a leopard print anything(especially not a bralet!)but Topshop have designed this in a way, I believe, looks very classy. Layer up with an open plain button up shirt, high waisted jeans and a parka and your good to go!

2. Topshop HANNA Flatform Sandals, £32 (Buy Here)

Again, probably not the most season appropriate piece but I've wanted a pair of flatform shoes for a while and these are just perfect! I think I could style these for the more pleasant days in winter by pairing them with some sheer patterned socks (Click Here). Or, if I'm feeling a bit more bold, colour block with a pair of bright lace trim socks (Click Here).

3. Topshop Nail Varnish, £6- (left to right) Eclipse(Buy Here), Chase (Buy Here)and Valley (Buy Here)

I have yet to purchase a Topshop nail varnish but I've heard nothing but good reviews. I am a big nail varnish fanatic and Topshop is great because they have such a great range of colours (there are three because I couldn't decide on just one!). 

4. Topshop Worn Black High Waisted Jamie Jeans, £40 (Buy Here)

I'm not really one to splash out on jeans because I haven't ever found a pair of jeans I have felt really comfortable in. But, I tried these on in store the other week and regretted not buying them ever since. I don't know whether it was the price that stopped me from buying them (I don't think my purse can take any more purchases from Topshop!)or what but I definitely needs these jeans in my life. They are such a good fit, flatter your legs and actually fit the length of my legs,a rare thing with jeans and me!
