Rituals Fortune Scrub REVIEW

I haven't blogged in what seems like a life time! 7 months in fact! Now where does the time go?!

I have felt like it has been a good long break and now feels the right time especially when I tried this little baby out I just couldn't resist!

I have only tried one rituals body product in the past and that has been the Mei Dao body cream which I was so impressed buy so as soon as I saw this came free with this months Marie Claire magazine I snapped it right up!
I didn't really know what to expect with this as I love a body scrub to be really scrubby (new word right there!) So when I saw this said 'shower cream scrub' I didn't expect it to be as exfoliating but oh my was I wrong!
Yes it's creamy but this doesn't affect the way it exfoliates. It left my skin feeling SO soft, softer then its felt in ages.

Now the smell is on another level. It smells incredible! Its described as being Sweet Orange &Cedar and my oh my its so citrusy and uplifting and it just literally lingers on the skin for such a long time.
I love this so much I actually picked up another magazine so I now have 2 in my stash.
The magazine is £3.90 so it's a saving £6.10 as the scrub retails at £10 but I will be more than happy to repurchase at that price because it's so lovely.

Such an amazing opportunity to try this as it comes free with Marie Claire magazine this month :)

Did you pick this up?

FREE Percy & Reed Hair Treats In Glamour Magazine!

I literally LOVE months like these when magazines give away really good freebies!
This month Glamour magazine are giving away free Percy & Reed hair treats which include:

• Shampoo
• Conditioner
• Finishing Polish
• Hydrating Mask

I got the Shampoo and Conditioner which I can't wait to use! I have actually never heard of this brand before but on the front of the magazine if you collect all 4 it equals to being worth £43! So they must be around the £10 mark (ish)

If you didn't see my post yesterday Cosmopolitan magazine are giving away FREE (don't you just love that word?!) Clinique goodies which you can find here  So it certainly is a great month for magazine freebies!

On other news I re-subscribed to Glossybox again. I ended my subscription last month as I was just continually disappointed by the boxes BUT due to the 'special' March box I couldn't resist subscribing again (good job Glossybox!) But I must admit I was actually sad not be receiving the boxes and getting that little bit of excitement each month... ha ha. I just hope this box is as good as it has been hyped up to be.... We shall see....

I also brought We Need to Talk About Kevin on DVD yesterday and I am SO excited to watch it again!! I never normally buy DVD's as soon as they come out because they are always destined to go cheap but I couldn't resist as this film is truly incredible, I remember walking out of the cinema thinking that truly is one of the greatest films I have ever seen, I love it SO much, so give it a watch! :)

Free Benefit Realness of Concealness mini Fake-it kit when you subscribe to Elle Magazine!

So I picked up this month's Elle magazine. I don't normally actually pick this magazine but I did this month due to the FANTASTIC Soap and Glory mascara included with the magazine! (post to come!!)
Now as I was flicking through the magazine I noticed an advertisement with the headline

'Subscribe now and receive A FREE BENEFIT COSMETIC SET, WORTH £24.50

PLUS, get your first six issues of ELLE for only £10, SAVING you £13.40'

This of course grabbed my attention and basically when you subscribe to Elle magazine you get:

•  Benefit Realness of Concealness Mini "Fake-It" kit which is worth £24.50

 (picture from google)

• Six issues of Elle for £10
• Exclusive collectors' covers
• Hand-picked offers every month when you join ELLE: The club

So the minimum you can be subscribed is 12 months so meaning you pay £10 for the first six months and £18.72 for the next six months which = £28.72! Considering the benefit freebie is worth £24.50 you are then only really paying £4.22 for 12 issues of the magazine!! :)

I personally think this is a FANTASTIC offer and this is the first time I have ever subscribed to any magazine so I'm really excited and super duper excited to of course receive the Benefit goodie! :)
