Earlier this year, L'Oréal Paris added a trio of Smooth Sugars Scrubs to their skincare range. I had already tried the Nourish Scrub and loved it, so I was 100% sure I wanted to try some more from the range. I picked up the L'Oréal Paris Smooth Sugars Clear Scrub to test out, and see if it was just as good as the Nourish Scrub.

L'oreal Paris Smooth Sugars Clear Scrub

The Smooth Sugar Clear Scrub is formulated with exfoliants of 100% natural origin, made from fine sugars and kiwi seeds. The expert blend also contains 3 fine sugars; White sugar that melts on the skin while gently buffing away impurities and dead skin cells. Blonde sugar, which is a natural moisturiser, and brown sugar which is rich in minerals that help strengthen the skin's barrier. 

A perfect combination of lemongrass and peppermint essential oils are also included to help purify and detox the skin, as well as banishing blackheads.

In terms of application, I always use this on clean skin. I will use a face wash/cleanser to remove any makeup or dirt from the skin, then apply a small amount of the scrub to my face and lips. Adding a splash of warm water to help lather the product slightly and gently massage in a circular motion. The sugars really melt into the skin for a deep exfoliation and the kiwi seeds helping to tackle the pores. I use the Clear Scrub around 3 times per week to help maintain my skin and banish any blackheads or congestion.

L'oreal Paris Smooth Sugars Clear Scrub

The L'Oréal Paris Smooth Sugars Clear Scrub has quick a thick and sticky consistency, with the sugar and kiwi seeds providing the perfect amount of texture to help exfoliate the face, without being too harsh on the skin. The packaging feels very luxurious. A nice, compact glass pot, that does feel quite heavy; definitely feels more high-end than drugstore!

L'oreal Paris Smooth Sugars Clear Scrub

I'd highly recommend the L'Oréal Paris Smooth Sugars Clear Scrub for those will oily and congested skin, or those wanting to get rid of any blackheads. However, if the Clear Scrub isn't for you, L'Oréal also have 2 other products in the Smooth Sugars range that might cater for your skin needs as they are suitable for all skin types.

AD - GIFTED | FLYTE; an innovative British brand, producing entirely clean energy drinks sourced from nature, powered by organic caffeine, non-GMO and has absolutely no added artificial ingredients or added sugar. Sounds crazy that there could be a healthy, clean and positive energy drink on the market, but it's 100% true and you definitely need to try it!

FLYTE Energy Drink

FLYTE is the first energy drink of its kind and is currently available in two delicious, fruity and refreshing flavours; 

Red Berries; a taste truly satisfying and is a refreshing coffee alternative in the afternoon when energy levels are wavering for the evening ahead.

 Green Mango; this tropical thirst-quencher is truly invigorating for those mid-morning slumps.

FLYTE Energy Drink

Each bottle contains lightly carbonated water, fruit juice, natural actives and vitamins. A drink fortified with Vitamins B & C, as well as the following ingredients;

- A double shot of Organic Caffeine, harnessed from pure and antioxidant rich unprocessed, unroasted green coffee beans.

- Maca Root is high in antioxidants, Vitamin C, Copper and Iron to aid focus and concentration.

- Schizandra is a super berry that helps with blood oxygenation, to reduce muscle aches and pains, overcome fatigue and encourage fast recovery post-exercise.

FLYTE Energy Drink

I was kindly gifted some samples of FLYTE Energy Drinks to try, and the first flavour I got stuck into was FLYTE Green Mango*. Green Mango was definitely my favourite flavour of the two that I received. Packed with grapes, passion fruit, lemons and limes, it was the perfect exotic, tropical drink! It has such a sweet and crisp flavour, bursting with fresh, juicy fruit, it was absolutely delicious!

FLYTE Energy Drink

FLYTE Red Berries* was also a flavour I enjoyed! Made with strawberries, raspberries, grapes, lemon and lime, this gave me Summer Fruits vibes and I was definitely loving it! You could really taste the fresh, juicy strawberries accompanied by the sharp raspberry taste that really made the perfect pairing for this red berries drink.

Overall, I was very impressed with FLYTE. I would definitely recommend. The packaging is simply stunning. It’s so sleek, stylish and sophisticated. Contained inside a durable glass bottle, it genuinely has a really nice look to it. So much so, it'd definitely catch your eyes in the supermarket! With each flavour branded with the corresponding colour for each bottle, i.e. red for berries, green for green mango, and the use of the bird logo playing on the name "FLYTE", it helps to make the brand and the product stand out.

I felt that FLYTE did actually help me concentrate and feel alert, giving me that burst of natural energy and focus that you really need in the late afternoon. The natural ingredients packed into FLYTE meant it was the perfect pick-me-up for when I felt tired and needed a nap. The best part about a natural, clean energy drink - I didn't suffer any sugar crashes, like a normal sugar-filled energy drink would give you!

AD - GIFTED | When it comes to bath bombs, you've probably been purchasing from the likes of LUSH and Bombs Away Cosmetics... But have you heard of Suezbana?? If the answer is no, keep reading!

A brand with A LOT to offer; from body lotions, showers gels, shaving soaps, creams, body butters, hair products, mineral makeup, aluminium free deodorant and home fragrances, there is so much variety, you'll be spoilt for choice.

SueZBana Bath Bombs Gift Set

I was kindly gifted the Suezbana Bath Bomb Gift Sets Series 2*. There are 6 Large Bath Bombs included, packed with added Essential Oils and Coconut milk. As soon as I opened the box I was blown away by the mixture of scents and the bold, beautiful colours. With a wide range of unique scents from floral to fruity, there is something for everyone to enjoy. 

SueZBana Bath Bombs Gift Set
 
Included in the Suezbana Bath Bomb Gift Sets Series 2 are the following bath bombs;

Violet - a fresh and floral Lavender based bath bomb with a deep, rich purple colour. The perfect, dreamy scent for relaxation and pampering, followed by a good night's sleep. 10/10 from me!

Ella - bursting with fluorescent pink and green colours, this scented bath bomb has subtle hints of florals and Watermelon, a perfect summer bath bomb scent. Personally for me, this bath bomb could do with a stronger Watermelon scent that would make it even better.

Ava - If you're a lover of Raspberries, this one is for you! Packed with a super sweet punch, this bath bomb has it all; sweetness, sourness, freshness and fruitiness, it's one not to be missed.


Gracie - a bath bomb bursting with aromas of juicy fresh Peaches and exotic Papaya - it'll have you dreaming of sun, sea and sand as you are whisked way to a tropical paradise.

Lily - for me, this bath bomb didn't really have a distinct scent that I could pick out, but described on the box as Tantalising Pinacola, it would have creamy and coconut-esque aromas.

Lexi - a bath bomb with such a bright, bold and vibrant blue colour, it'll definitely turn your bath into a beautiful ocean! Packed with subtle hints of Blueberry and some fizzy sherbet; this bath bomb is like sweet heaven.
