On a little side note..

I've reverted my layout back to a normal Blogger template for the time being. I'm hoping that a magic HTML/coding fairy will visit me in my sleep and magically design and make me an individual layout. However, I'm not that hopeful that this will happen any time soon, so major apologies!

Aapri cleansing pillows

Hello hello! I'm a totally rubbish blogger but I've had lots and lots going on recently so blogging and taking time to write posts seems to have taken a bit of a back seat. However, I'm TRYING to find the time and actually turn on my MacBook. It seems a to have been a little redundant since I got my iPad so it's probably feeling a little unloved too! I've been meaning to write about these cleansing pillows for a little while, and seeing as I'm on my second box, it's about time too. 

These little babies have become my new best friends, in relation to facial cleansing that is! 

I apologise in advance for the terrible photos. My BlackBerry was all I had to hand at the time..

Now, these little babies set me back ONE WHOLE POUND from my beloved Poundland. Honestly, if you've never mooched around your local pound shop for bargains you may fall in love with (or let's be honest, hate and never use again) you really do need to pop in. Some are obviously better than others, but it's always worth a peep! 

I'd never heard of Aapri before, but Mother P tells me they've been around since the 1980's. In the box are 30 pads with a slightly rough fabric texture on one side, with a bumpy, mildly exfoliating texture on the other. The magic happens when you simply sprinkle a few drops of water on them and rub. A beautifully scented apricot foam appears before your eyes! Personally, I prefer the slightly rougher side as it leaves my skin feeling squeaky clean without being dry. I usually use one all over my face and neck once I've removed my make up; just so I know my face is totally clean and ready for moisturiser. 

Now, to me these seem like an amazing, revolutionary product but they've probably been around for donkeys' years and everyone has probably seen them. However, I'm a massive fan and I've even stocked up with 3 extra boxes under the sink in the bathroom just incase Poundland stop stocking them, as they often do. I love how easy they are to use and if I'm off to the boyfriend's house for the weekend I don't feel as if I have to cart all my lotions and cleansers around with me. 

So there we have it: my first proper post in no idea how long!

Have you ever used something similar, or even seen these around?

Bonjour!

I reckon I'm probably the worst blogger ever to have existed! Since my last post way back in JUNE I've been pretty busy. I've finished university and even had my graduation so I'm no longer a student! 

Another reason for my ridiculous absence is that my poor MacBook battery is near death so the only way I can use it is if it's plugged in to the mains, so the iPad seems a much easier method of Internet browsing! 

However, I am to return to posting regular posts every now and again as I'm often working at silly hours and I'm currently waiting to hear back from a job application. Fingers crossed! 

Future posts include my recent bargains and new loves, OPI goodies from TK Maxx and other bits I fancy posting about. 

I've been thinking of some posts to write so I'll get writing tonight after work, even if it is just a little one! 

It's good to be back!
