Well Hi there, it seems like AGES since I have wrote a review but I have been really busy with my children, going out, parties and work that I didn't really have time. I was really going off a couple of hours sleep, which isn't good at all, so I did have a couple of days in between where I did absolutely NOTHING! Whoop! Just Netflix & Chill...
Anyway I'm reviewing the Oils of Life from The Body Shop which I bought a while back, I had it in the back of the cupboard and left it whilst i tried other products. It was for £28 which one can find a wee bit expensive, I bought it straight up though as i did hear good reviews about it. The crap thing is that no discount can be used against buying this oil, for example my network is with o2 and they have o2 priority which allows you to use coupons or discount and The Body Shop is on there to have a 35% discount, when I went to buy the oil thought I was told it is excluded from any offers! Blah!
The shape of the bottle is like a little like a pair and you have to squeeze the top for the oil to go into the tube and squeeze again to release the oil onto the face. A little oil does go along way.
Since having my baby nearly 10 weeks ago (time flies) my face skin had become really dry and flaky. I didn't know why it did that I would always moisturise and my routine was exactly the same as before, which was washing my face with Simple Kind to Skin Facial Wash Gel every night before bed. As my skin start playing up I stopped using that and switched to the Nivea Range, the 2in1 Cleanser & Toner was suppose to b amazing for flaky skin. Again after using it it didn't work. I tried other oils like Bio Oil too, It failed! That's when I remembered I have the Oils of Life in my drawer, so I got it out and decided to put it to use.
The Oils Of Life is made from 99% natural origin oils. They are cold pressed oils which are quickly absorbed by the skin which leaves it plump and hydrated, something which my skin was in desperate need of! It is suppose to help fight signs of ageing (not that I'm old) and make the skin feel revitalized, more elastic and firmer. It also helps to lock moisture and nutrients into your skin making you look and feel fresher.
For me i has been nearly a week using it and I can see a difference already, when I wake up my skin is NOT flaky and feels really Fresh. I'm absolutely loving the oil and how its helping my skin. My makeup application looks more even too! My Nivea & Simple range of facial masks and toners I threw in the bin. I'm sticking with this oil now and will carry on using it In Sha Allah.
Definitely recommend :P
