Ok, dont panic summer is here! Think i never buffed, shaved or moisturized faster every part of my body so i can prance around in sandals and dresses this weekend. The stress!
Luckily Lloyds Pharmacy had me covered with a great selection of products meant to get anyone summer ready, sending me a couple of their must haves to protect and repair from sun damage.
The Nuxe SPF 30 was tested this weekend, for the second year around during our seaside picnic. Did i mentioned i got the cutest picnic basket ever in the House of Fraser Sale? We packed away some yummy food, two cold Peroni’s and all the milk money can buy and jetted to Malahide. The sun was blazing, the beer was flowing and the baby was roaring. She just hates to stay still, or just outside for that matter! So despite all the stress, both me and my husband were smelling lovely and didn’t get sunburned at all, i could even venture in saying we might be a quarter of a shade darker :).

When we got back home, once the baby went to bed I continued my pampering experience with the Nuxe After Sun Hair and Body Shampoo, using it as a shower gel. OMG it smells delicious! After such a great sunny day by the beach, showering with the After Sun made me feel i was on holiday, oh the memories of care free beach holidays.
For my hair i’ve used the Toni & Guy Shampoo and Conditioner for Damaged Hair, cleansing and nourishing my highlighted hair after being baked in the sun. I had used before the Cleansing Shampoo from Toni & Guy and liked it, so it was a pleasant surprise using the Damaged Hair version. My hair was left soft and manageable, so if you are looking out for a budget buy i would give them a chance.
Finishing off, ive massaged all my wobbly bits with the Nuxe Melting Firming Cream. I actually had this body moisturizer on my wishlist for ages – rich, decadent and gorgeous, the firming cream will tone and even out the skin where it needs most. Its such a luxurious experience at the end of the day to just pamper the body skin and give it an anti age lift. We all know i need it!
After these photos all hell broke loose!

I haven’t had a chance to get a good summer holiday for two years and now I am so white, that’s why I need a good protection before I leave home, otherwise I am as red as tomato. Firming cream sounds great, it goes to my wishlist! Btw how cute that ice cream sun glasses are, who was wearing them 🙂

Thank you!
I need to try those products from Nuxe! I love the summer but I also despise it for the sun and how sunburned I get every single time. I am quite pale, so I get a lovely shade of red when I’m out. I use SPF of course but it doesn’t prevent me from getting burned once in a while 🙂

Love Nuxe, need to try some of their face care too.
Those ice cream glasses are adorable! I haven’t tried much nuxe products but I always hear good things about them! That picnic basket is awesome! An after sun shampoo sounds kinda gimmicky but I’m down to try especially just to smell good!

I know what you mean about the sun shampoo, i wouldn’t probably buy one myself and invest more in the sun cream. Oh i wanted a picnic basket for ages!
