Elvis has entered the building. I have a new lodger.... One that comes in the form of a sneaky, hungry tea bag stealer...but he does have a lot of love to give.

Back

Oops....where has time gone. Last thing I knew I was packing and getting ready for my cross country adventure across America...next I know I am back at work and the weather is as dreary as the back end of an elephant.

Aveda

So...apparently growing up doesn't mean that your hormones don't target your face.....and they have targeted mine big time.

From trawling through the masses of blogs that I follow, I have come to the conclusion that foaming face washes are not the best and that exfoliators which scratch your face to shreds are baaaaad (the stinging from some was an instant indicator that this wasn't for me)  All this in mind I have decided to have a go with the Aveda  Botanical Kinetics range for combination/oily skin.

I have got myself the starter kit in this range which come with the purifying gel cleanser, toning mist, exfoliant (liquid form which contains an mild acid rather than scratch your face of grains) and a hydrating lotion. I purchased this for two reasons, 1. You can never be sure that what you are buying is going to be right for your skin and love that Aveda so this starter kit so that you don't have to spend mega dollar just to find out this your break out! And 2. I am going away on a Trek America adventure which means that little bottles of face products leaves more room for clothes...always a bonus!

So far so good.....my breakouts are less...and the ones that had occurred are lessening and my face is feeling amazing! I have only been using this for a couple weeks but I would defo recommend this. They also do the range for combination/dry skin types.

Everybody get up, singing......

Ooh the 90's and all the awesomeness that it brought.....and a couple weeks ago I got to relive part of my growing up experience by going to see Liberty X, Blue and 5ive perform like at Newmarket Race Course!

Of course the weather was pants....where was the sun that we have now when we needed it.....but we weren't going to let that dampen out spirits......knowing all the words and dance moves helped to warm us up :)
