Very Berry Face Mask

Hello lovely! 
Today I had a spare half an hour, and so I thought I might as well break out a face-mask seen as I went on a slight face-mask shopping spree in the past few weeks! I'm not sure if they are all new, or if I just hadn't spotted them before, but lately I've been seeing a lot of different Montagne Jeunesse sachet masks.The one I used today seemed so unusual it felt blog worthy! The odd mask in question is the "Very Berry" mask, which claims to be "ultra moisturising and cleansing", which is exactly what I was looking for, after a month of bad skin days. 
As you can see from the picture below, it's blooming metallic! When I first started applying it, it was one of the oddest feelings I have experienced, it looked and felt like paint, so all I could think was, oh my goodness this cannot possibly be good for my skin!
But lo and behold, it seems to have done the trick! My redness was reduced and a few blemishes waiting to become full blown spots were banished. I love all of the masks in this range and now I'm excited to try some others.



Have you tried any masks from this brand? Which would you recommend? 
Lots and lots of love, Beth :) xxx

no7 Beautiful Skin Cleansing Wipes

Hello there honey :)
I'm sure you've seen these wipes in your local Boots store before, and I'm sure you've seen their absurd price tag of £7.00 and if you're anything like me, walked right on past them to the much cheaper face wipes.

in case you haven't seen these lovely wipes before, it might sound trivial but I do love the clean white packaging. 
However, if you are a bargain hunter like me, I'm sure you've also seen the no7 vouchers with two sides that Boots give out every few weeks when you spend over £5 in one transaction. As far as I'm aware it was previously £3 off make-up and £5 of skincare, however now it's £5 off fragrance and £5 off skincare (specific to no7 that is).
With the £5 off voucher the wipes are just £2 (or 200 points) which I think is pretty averagely priced for face wipes to be honest. And I cannot fault the quality. I usually use the Boots Essentials Face Wipes (£1.50) or whatever cheap wipes I can get my hands on. 
To start with I wasn't sure about the wipes, just because of how wet (ewww hate that word!) they are. However, once I'd got used to it, they are the most refreshing wipes I've used and are so moisturing, something my very dry skin needs. Plus, as far as face wipes go they get rid of sooooo much make-up! 
They have fast become an essential item for me and one that I will repurchase again and again. 
(when I have money off vouchers I intent on stocking up!)
Have you tried these wipes? 
Do you think no7 items are as overpriced as I do?
I love to read and reply to your comments so please do leave them below :)
Lots and lots of love, Beth xoxoxoxo
