Product Review: A Massage Oil and a Cleansing Body Wash

I like a good massage. There is nothing better than having a full body massage. Trust me, it is the best feeling in the world, as long as you have it done with the right products and hands.

I try to take time off regularly to go for a good massage. With the nature of my work and my busy life, I see this regular treatments as a necessity not luxury. A good massage kind of puts my body back together.

This review post is all about an Aromotherapy Associates Restful and Tranquil Massage Oil and a Sanctuary Spa Cleansing Burst Body Wash.

CONS

  1. The packaging is a bit of issue. The pump on my bottle tends to fall off a lot so I have to be very careful with it.

Bizarre Beauty Treatments

There are so many beauty treatments around today and many of them are just plain crazy. I guess there are so many bizarre beauty treatments coming up because we women are going crazier by the day. Many of us are willingly to try anything to look good or that promises some beauty benefits, and that is the reason why these bizarre beauty treatments keep coming up.

I did some research and came across some of the most bizarre beauty treatments I have ever heard of. Here they are:

 

Anal Bleaching

Yes you read that right. I was quite shocked to discover such a beauty treatment existed. Why would anyone want to bleach that part of the body? No one sees it so why would anyone want it bleached? Well there are people who want theirs bleached. There is even an Anal Bleaching Guide on how to go about the treatment, what creams to use and how they work, and why it has become so popular in 2016.

So if you ever thought of having that part of your body bleached, it is possible but weird!

 

Bird’s Poo Facial

This is even more crazy! This facial uses purified bird’s poo in a powdered form that is mixed with rice bran to neutralize odours. This bird’s poo procedure works by breaking down dead cells and cleansing the skin.  It is known for leaving the skin cleaner, brighter and more radiant.

 

A Red Wine Bath

This is another dead weird beauty treatment. For this treatment, you get soaked in a tub of red wine to ferment your body. It is popular for reversing sun damage and firming the skin.

 

These are just a few of the crazy beauty treatments around today. I think the treatments will continue to become more crazy as our thirst for beauty perfection continues.

What do you think? Have you heard of these beauty treatments before? Which is the craziest of the 3? Do sound off in the comments section below, let’s chat.

Thank you for reading. Have a fabulous day!

Christmas Beauty Advent Calendar

I have never had a Christmas Advent Calendar. In fact, I never knew they existed until a year ago. I am very into all things beauty as my regular readers would know but I am still yet to get my very first Christmas Advent Calendar. Most of the Advent Calendars I would like are very pricey. I have a very expensive taste and I think beauty calendars are a clear case of you get what you pay for. There is no point buying an Advent Calendar from a brand you don’t like and get products you are not excited about. That will be a waste of time and money.

While shopping and contemplating on which Christmas Advent Calendar to get, I came across this engaging and interactive beauty Christmas Advent Calendar by Book Your Lifestyle – a community of UK beauty, health and fitness experts at your service 24/7, and it had my full attention.

The Book Your Lifestyle Christmas Beauty Advent Calendar is basically 24 days of amazing prices that is sure to get people talking. The prices are worth £4000, and they range from beauty treatments at a London spa, nail and hair salon to beauty products and many more. This beauty campaign goes live today and will run until 24th December. Closing date for entry will be midnight on every day between the December 1st and December 24th.

I am super excited about this campaign. I am always in need of a beauty treatment. I will be in London for a few days after Christmas so I am hoping a win treatment. I can never say no to a spa day. I think this Christmas Beauty Advent Calendar is a great idea. Book Your Lifestyle really thought outside the box for this one. I think it would be very popular and good fun.

On that note,  I am off to Book Your Lifestyle website to click on today’s window. Good luck to all of us.

Happy #Glitzmas2016 xo
