Like many of you i received this in my MASSIVE Soap and Glory set (Hey Big Splendour) this christmas. I have been using this every night ever since. I am a real tough contender for this product, as i am a dancer, and dancing everyday has really took its toll on my feet. Since i have been using this product i have noticed a slight improvement. Once applied, my feet feel immediately soft, but smells like hair removal cream, which is slightly off putting.
I think if i were to stop using this product, my feet would return to being dry and cracked almost instantly, and i do feel i need to use it every night to feel the benefits, any less and i don't think i would.
I am going to persevere with this product and continue to use as i like the quality and thickness, and love the fact you only have to use a small amount! However, if you have seriously dry cracked feet you may want to look for something a little stronger. Like i have said i am a really tough customer as my feet would be more battered than the average lady, as Soap and Glorys Heel Genius is simply for tired dry feet in need of a little pamper! For the average lady's tutsies, this product is amazing!
Welcome to the most annoying thing in my room right now.
At first i loved the idea of this novelty massive sized vaseline tin, so much so that my lovely boyfriend bought it for me. Christmas has since passed, and its still looking at me, full of nothing. What the hell can i keep in this thing? I know your first thought will be lip balms right? Well i have far too many to even fit half of them in this thing, i even have too many vaselines than what this tin will hold. I can't even put bobbles/grips, rings, or earrings in here as they are perfectly stored elsewhere. I was hoping to put some sort of cosmetic into here, but the shape of it makes this a little awkward!
Is anyone else in the same position as me?
Do you have this oversized tin?

I recently received this product in my festive GlossyBox, which was perfect timing really as I really wanted to begin a new skincare regime. I have been using this twice a day since the beginning of January (even though its only a small bottle its gone really far - and I've still got a good amount left!) and yes i have noticed a difference in my skin. This is the best face wash/cleanser thing I've used in regards to getting my face really clean. When i use my toner after this, the cotton pad is the cleanest its ever been, which has also had a knock on effect on the condition of my skin - i now have noticeably few blemishes which is great.
Now for the negatives - my main niggle with this product is the smell, or lack of it. A face wash/cleanser always wins me over if i like the smell, especially if its a fresh zesty smell to wake me up on a morning! This cleanser is pretty much scentless (is that even a word?!), although if you really sniff, theres a really plain, almost industrial smell. Its really hard to describe, but those of you who also received this product will know what i mean!
Due to the price and lack of fragrance, i would not purchase this product full size. However, having said that, i am in love with the way it really cleans my skin and leaves it fairly soft, and if i do find that no other face cleanser cleans my face to this degree, i may turn back to it...
Okay so i have a dilemma, and I've had it quite some time. Nail polish storage - i just haven't found the perfect way to store my ever growing collection. Ive had it on little shelves, I've had them in boxes, baskets, you name it I've tried it. I know its such a trivial little thing but having nowhere to store my rather big collection is becoming a bit irritating. As you can see from this picture i have started to put them in this box (which is actually an underwear box that came with dividers) but it doesn't quite fit every single one of them in. If anyone has any advice, or cool ways to store products please please please please help me, id really appreciate it! Also if anyone would like me to a nail polish collection post id be more than happy to do so :)
Help and advice would be greatly appreciated, I'm at somewhat of a loose end!
Thanks :)

I admit i made a spend! I'm not consciously trying to save money, but I'm also trying to spend a little less. But when i saw these offers, i just couldn't resist! All of these products are products i have wanted to try, as so many bloggers and you tubers have recommended them, i couldn't wait any longer, and i figured wages are supposed to be spent aren't they?
Have you tried any of these products? If so please tell me what you thought of them !

Right now everyone is raving over the Naked 2 palette, but i was looking for something a little similar (neutral colours), just not with the price tag. I've always wondered what the ebay palettes are like, and after asking MissBudgetBeauty what they were like (and being told they were of really good quality) i decided to take the plunge, although it wasn't much of a plunge as they are soooo cheap, more like dipping my toe in a rock pool.
I will do swatches as time goes on as there are just so many colours, but my first impressions are that this might just be my new favourite palette! I was a little apprehensive as to whether all the shadows would be intact, but seen as the palette arrived wrapped in bubble wrap in a box which was in a polystyrene box which was in a cardboard box, there was little chance of that happening! The case itself is super sturdy, and easy to open and close.
If anyone wishes to know where you can buy this palette then just click here! They also do a palette full of bright colours, which as a dancer might just be pretty useful to me!
Have you used this palette?
Have you found an alternative to the naked palette?

I didn't have a christmas wish list, as i love surprises, but this year there are a few products/brands I've got my beady eye on, and by the end of this year i hope to have purchased them all!
*Garnier bb cream - I've ready so many brilliant reviews on this product it would seem rude not to invest, and combined with the fact I've just been paid and its on offer, this purchase may just be around the corner.
*The Naked Palette - okay i confess, the only reason i want this product is because everyone else has it and i want to see what all the fuss is about. I have the Heaven and Earth palette by MUA (which i absolutely love) which is pretty similar, but id like to indulge in something a little more urban!
* Miners - after seeing numerous videos and posts about this brand, i recently looked at the website - i did not realise just how cheap these products are, and I'm all for a bit of shopping in my dressing gown, so an online spend is definitely in order.
*Elf - again after reading numerous reviews, and purchasing an eyebrow kit from a blog sale, i am curious about this cheap and cheerful brand, and i hear their brushes are something to be tried!
* MAC - i know its not all about expensive products, but i really want to expand my tiny mac collection this year, however this will be a difficult one as their isn't a mac counter to be seen anywhere near where i live!
* to expand my collection in general - yes i think of my beauty products as a collection, and to see how it expands over the year will make me a very happy girl :)
what are you wishes for 2012?
