Steph Loves: Nivea Softpot

You'll have to excuse the fact i call it a softpot. One of my best friends used to work in Savers, she got me into the stuff and we would just refer to it as softpot. (probably because you can buy it in a pot or tube..)

Anyway, im sure you'll have all seen this before. Its nothing glamorous, or top of the range, but its one of my beauty picks to always keep in your handbag!


Mines a bit battered and bruised from being thrown around so much.

Nivea is one of those safe brands that sit on the shelf and sell loads of products, but noone really thinks about how good they actually are..

the intensive moisturising cream is suitable for your face, hands and body. Its packed with vitamin E and Jojoba oil.
The formulation is just right. It leaves your skin feeling soft and supple and not greasy.




with the tube bring a handy 75ml its a perfect size for your handbag. Alternatively, you can now buy pots in 200ml or 300ml if you prefer them to stay at home.

I really can't rave about this product enough. If you want a cheap and cherful moisturising cream, then i really recomend the Nivea Soft range.

Bargain Buys.

Like most students (in the UK?) i got my loan through recently. I know it's not something people like to really talk about, especially with all the student protests and stuff thats been going on recently, but ive been in desperate need of some new clothes forever for ages. Yesterday, when i took a quick trip to town, i managed to pick up a few pairs of tights in primark and some odds and sods elsewhere. The local Matalan here isnt directly in the centre of town, but its not far out, so i thought id take a walk there to see if i could find anything nice. I managed to pick up a few  things, but when walking past the jewelery stands on my way to the tills to pay, i came across these 



I'm not normally a massive ring person, but recently i've found myself buying more than usual, and in styles that originally i probably wouldn't have bought. The first one is a bird covered in little studs. The second one is a double finger ring that recently ive found myself loving. Ive got quite chubby fingers, so i need to find slightly bigger ringholes, but matalan always do theirs in different sizes which is always a bonus. Most of the jewelery i saw had been reduced by 70%! Both of these rings were originally £6, but with the markdown price (and student discount) i got them at £1.65 each! Baaaaaaaaaargain!
