As you may know if you read my blog, a week ago I attended a Miss Patisserie event in Cardiff (you can read about it here). As always, when I go to events I like getting some of the things they offer and test them myself so this time I ended up getting a body scrub, a face oil and a perfume. 

I can't tell you much about the face oil just yet as of course it takes more than a week to see any results. As for the perfume, I went for a raspberry and orange and I love it. It's very fresh and perfect for every day. It also comes in a tiny bottle so it's great to have it in your bag.

Now, the winner is definitely the body scrub. I really cannot rave enough about it. I have been telling every body at work and I keep making them touch my skin and they all love it! There was quite a few different smells and I struggled to decide which one I liked the most if I'm being honest because all of them were so dreamy! In the end I went for the 'Coco' one. Their body scrubs are 100% made from natural ingredients and they're produced and designed here in Cardiff. Coco has a tropical smell to it, like coconut mixed with lime and sweets. It really does make you want to eat it. Miss Patisserie describes this product as nourishing and moisturizing sugar body scrubs, perfect for bright and glowing skin. They are packed with antiflammatory jojoba oil and restoring sweet almond oil as well as renewing Vitamin E.  I could not agree any more!

I have used this product three times now and from the very first day I have felt such a different in my skin, it's hard to believe! In winter I always get very dry skin in my hands, forearms and elbows to the point where if I scratch my arm it turns white of how much dry skin there is, well, that hasn't happened since I've been using this body scrub. It removes all the dead skin and hydrates the skin in a way I can't even describe! My skin feels so smooth and it smells so good for over twenty-four hours and the thing that I love the most about this body scrub is that you don't need to moisturize afterwards! 

I wish I could give you all a tiny bit to try it because you'd fall in love with it as much as I have! I will definitely be purchasing different smells (there was a watermelon one that was to die for!).

What is your favorite scrub? What your new favorite skin care product?

MISS - PATISSERIE BLOGGER EVENT

Earlier today I attended a blogger event at Miss-Patisserie. I am so happy that I got invited to this because if I'm being honest, I had never heard of this company before. 

Miss Patisserie offers amazing, beautiful handcrafted bath and skin care products. All of their products are made in Cardiff and everything is hand made, from the products to the packaging. The company started in 2009 primarily selling online or to other stores but a month ago the first store was opened at the High Street Arcade in Cardiff.

The first thing I noticed when I walked into the shop was the relaxing atmosphere, the smell and the very cute bath bomb cupcakes display. The whole place is very simplistic and rustic but chic at the same time. I always say for a skin care store less is more and they've definitely done it right. The clean space allows the products to speak for themselves and everything is so colorful and pretty it makes me happy!

At the event, Charlotte demonstrate some of the products on ourselves. I tried a body scrub, a face oil and a face mask. All the products are made from natural ingredients and they all smell super yummy. 

Unfortunately I don't have a bath at the moment so I didn't pay much attention to the bath bombs (even tho they all smell and look amazing). I concentrated on the skin care products and the perfumes. I ended up getting a body scrub, a face oil and a roll on perfume. Stay tuned as I will be writing another blog post once I've tried the products! 

Over all, I am extremely happy to have discovered Miss Patisserie as I think it's a much better alternative to Lush. The fact that everything is made local and that it is a relatively small company makes me really excited and I think it's great for us bloggers to help small local business. If you're in town make sure you pop in and have a look at everything they have to offer. The staff is great, very helpful and knowledgeable and they take the time to explain how to use the products or what they're best for. If you don't live in Cardiff you can check out their website here. 

Before I go, I'd like to thank Charlotte and Jorge for inviting me to the event, again, I am very happy to have discovered Miss Patisserie! 

If you'd like to know how I get on with the products I purchased make sure to visit my blog again soon for the review.
