Review: Nivea Soft


Hello! Today I thought that I would review the Nivea Soft moisturiser which I have been using for the last couple of months. I have struggled with acne (now only scarring) for two years and have thus bought all those oil-free moisturisers. In winter though, my skin gets really dry and flaky. A friend gave me this moisturiser because she really likes it and after a week of using it, my skin was all soft and not at all flaky. I don´t brake out from this at all and it also helps getting rid of scars. My skin doesn´t get excessively oil from this either. The pot is 200ml so it lasts a long time and costs £4.
I will keep using this for a long time....



Love, Heggie

DIY: Face Wash For All Skin Types


Hello again! I have tried SOOO many face washes, both cheap and expensive, and now I have found it. The one face wash that has improved my skin so much that it is unbelievable. And the silly thing is that it is dirt cheap. It only has two ingredients: olive oil and castor oil. I found the recipe on the internet about three months ago, and thought that I´d try it. 

Olive oil is a very effective moisturiser and makeup remover. This means that I don´t have to remove any makeup before, not even waterproof mascara. The moisturising part means that I don´t get anywhere near as dry and flaky skin as i get in winter.

Castor oil is the important ingredient. It  goes deep in to the skin to  get rid of the clogging dirt deep down. It is also anti-septic and anti-inflammatory.

DIY: Long Thick Hair



Hello again! Basically every girl wants long, thick and smooth hair. I am certainly one of them... A couple of months ago I found this all-natural hair mask on the internet. I thought I´d try it as I had all the ingredients and... wow! It is soooo good! I have curly hair so I know that it works great on that too, and doesn´t ruine your volume or curls. Your hair is left with a healthy shine that doesn´t look greasy.

DIY: Miracle Cinnamon and Honey Face Mask




This is the recipe for one of the best face masks ever! It consists of only two ingredients; honey and cinnamon. These are both really good at treating acne and getting rid of scars. The honey is one of nature´s best moisturisers and it really balances the skin and gives it deep moisture as well as healing scars. Cinnamon is naturally anti-bacterial and really clears up your skin. This mask has helped me so much with my skin, I cannot live without it. If you suffer from acne, after trying it, you wont be able to live without it either :) Keep on reading to find out the recipe...

DIY: Homemade Detox Drinks

Detox drinks are one one of the best things you can give your body. They cleanse your body from all the toxins, help you in losing weight, improve your skin, hair and nails, strengthen your immune system, give you more energy and improve your overall body functioning. Pretty great right?

I always drink a detox drink before i go to sleep, as my tummy is empty and the drink is more effective. Then in the morning I drink another one, at least half an hour before I eat breakfast.

Getting My Hair Cut

Today I had my hair cut. I cut about 2 inches, and now it´s a more V-shape.
Recently I´ve started using mainly ecological products and today I went to an ecological beauty place. They used natural herbs and oils plus I got an Indian scalp massage. They also put argan oil in my hair so it´s really shiny and smooth. My hair is sooo lovely now! :D
Here are some before and after pictures:
