Well I'm continually trying to save money and I haven't bought a moisturiser yet.
My face really needs it. I decided to see if Iceland had anything reasonable going.
Simple? No thanks, it does nothing for me. The only other alternative was a Nivea beeswax hand cream 75ml for £1.25.
Sounds interesting and the price is good for a branded product.
I used to buy 50ml and it was triple that price.. I wonder if it's scented?
I shall let you know how I get on with it and if my face finally gets repaired from the utter dryness..
I just unpacked the groceries so my back is killing me but everything was in stock.
The Nivea hand cream, I'll give me initial thoughts on. It's faintly scented, to me it's like honey which is nice.
It's very thin and light and I just put a small layer on, just to see how it is.
My face is still dry but it feels partially coated, so on the surface it seems like a good investment.
I quickly googlied yesterday and the spiel said, the reason hand cream is not recommended for the face is that it's likely to be oilier and heavier, it might clog your pores.
So that's my curiosity satisfied.
Ooh I couldn't get the small yoghurt pots, so what was on offer was the Yop raspberry 825g for £1.50. I can't open that, so will wait until I feel stronger.
The Onken cherry yoghurt 450g for £1.50, that is exceptionally cold, like they took it out of the freezer.
What hits you is a sharpness but not bitter, just tasty, a lil sweet, creamy but only a lil thick which is preferable.
The last one is fat free strawberry, same price and size.
When I do Monday's shop, I'll get cereal bars. The shopping just came in exactly an hour but because I was writing, it seemed fast actually.
It was funny he's the only one that said can you double check inside the bag but it was knotted so I couldn't open it and could only guess because I forgot what I ordered anyway.
I'll compare it to the list. The one thing I was curious about was if they'd provide me with chicken spring rolls/samosas because last time from somewhere, I got the veggy one and I was gutted.
I also like that unlike Zoom who use tearable paper bags, Asda uses the good quality plastic ones that are sturdier.
Yep I got everything. I forgot to get a drink, I don't think they did a meal deal.
Just tried one of the samosas, nice big size, lil overdone, but tasty, chicken peas and not sure what else.
No spice but that's fine with me, it's just tasty and not a heavy curry flavour which I was worried about, a nice blend of herbs and seasonings.
I would get that again, only 2x in a pack but filling. I'll just add a moisturiser update..
It's been 5x days of using it and my face is a lot less dehydrated but it's not cured completely.
For some reasons the edges are still dry, so an improvement but not perfect.
