Body skin care routine with Baylis & Harding's Great Body range

Hands up, who's guilty of putting a lot more effort into their facial skin care routine than their body skin care routine? I'm most definitely a culprit. It's no secret that when it comes to looking after the skin that isn't on my face, I'm just not interested. For me, it's always been a lot of effort and I've always lived by; "well, no one sees it that much anyway." But I've decided to take a stance, and now I'm investing a lot more time into my body skin care routine.

Baylis & Harding was the turning point for me. They've invented a fabulous Great Body skin care routine with a total of five easy to follow steps. I've been using three of the five steps, and I also added a lovely little product by Nivea to the clan. It's safe to say, I won't look back and body, I'm sorry for neglecting you so much for the past 21 years.

The routine starts off with the Baylis & Harding Great Body Polish* which is pretty standard for a body scrub. The scrub itself uses Walnut Shell as an exfoliant as well as Shea Butter and Coconut Oil to moisturise and soften the skin. It's pleasant to use, easy to use - body scrubs in tubs are a pain - and smells clean and fresh. Next up is the Baylis & Harding Great Body Wash* which uses skin conditioning Pro-Vitamin B5 and Glycerin to hydrate the skin and leave it soft and supple. This body wash lathers up beautifully and envelopes the skin to leave it smelling great and feeling like silk. The bottle is also a whopping 500ml and comes with a pump... need I say more?

The penultimate step in my new routine is the Baylis & Harding Great Body Lotion* which also comes with a pump, what a godsend. The lotion uses Tego Smooth® which is a recently launched patented multifunctional 48hr moisturiser that aims to reduce skin roughness whilst protecting it from external influences. This body lotion truly is lovely. It adds to the already beautiful scent and sinks into the skin nice and quickly. I then finish my routine with the Nivea Q10 Plus Goodbye Cellulite Gel-Cream on my thighs and bum area. I haven't noticed a massive difference yet but I'll keep you updated. It is, however pleasant to use and really cools the skin.

Also in the Great Body range is the Great Body Mist and Great Body Firming Cream which I'm hoping to add to my routine. Overall, this range is incredible and as I mentioned at the start of this post, it's completely changed the way I view looking after my body. In terms of the texture of my skin, I've seen an improvement and my skin feels healthier too. The Great Body range is available to buy in Waitrose.

Baylis & Harding Beauticology Master Chocolatier

Oh this review is well overdue. It's been a long time coming and for what seems like forever, I've been wrapping my skin in chocolate yumminess. When a delicious Baylis & Harding press release made its way into my inbox, I could've resist but snap up their Master Chocolatier collection. Being a girl, it's inevitable that I'm addicted to chocolate but you know, a moment on the lips a lifetime on the lips and all that. So instead of indulging in the naughties, I've been getting my chocolate fix elsewhere.

Beauticology Sweet Temptations* (can't find online but here's a similar one)

Strawberry & vanilla cream truffle body wash, white chocolate body lotion, decadent milk chocolate shower creme.

Body care wise, I haven't used any other products since receiving this gift set. It's perfect in every way possible. The shower creme and body wash are lovely at what they're branded as, but if you really want to indulge, pop a few drops under a running tap - you'll have the most delicious bubble bath of your entire life. The products fill the room with a yummy scent which one of the boys in my house even complimented. The body lotion is wonderful too. It sinks into the skin immediately and leaves behind a wonderful smell. If I do say so myself, I smell good enough to eat after using this.

Beauticology Luscious Lip Balm Set* - £6.99

Decadent milk chocolate, strawberry & vanilla cream truffle, white chocolate and raspberry creme chocolate. 

I was sold the moment I saw the tin. I love me some good packaging and this tin now houses my cotton wool pads - genius. The lip balms aren't the most moisturising but they do hydrate the lips nicely and provide a wonderful base for lipstick. They also taste and smell beautiful - like everything in this blog post do - and because of this, I've been using them non-stop.

Have you tried anything from the Beauticology range before?

REVIEW: New Skin Spa range from Baylis and Harding

Baylis and Harding have created a brand new spa range to help you take the tension out of your day. This range is available exclusively at Tesco and it contains ten relaxing products to help you banish your worries in the comfort of your own home. The range includes Bath Milk, Shower Body Cleanser, Body Smoothing Polish, Hand Wash, Hand Lotion, Cleansing Waffle Sponge, Luxury Body Polisher, Smoothing Foot File and these two products that I was sent to try out.

The Rich Intensive Body Butter* is absolutely stunning. Not only does the packaging look beautiful and expensive but the product inside also feels the same on the skin. The scent itself is very indulgent - rose, ylang ylang and patchouli and when I use this, I feel very grown up and 'proper.' The Exfoliating Loofah Mitt* is a star product in my opinion. I've been using it dry to buff away dead skin cells and it leaves my skin feeling so soft and beautiful - something that a few exfoliators that I've tried fail to do. I find that it's great for using before fake tanning as it smooths away lumps and bumps and creates a perfect base.

I was very surprised when I found out the price of these products. The body butter retails at £3.00 for 250ml and the loofah mitt is just £4.00. Really cheap for such great, luxurious products!

This range is available in store from Tesco now!
