  • Simple Skincare Products In Farmfoods Under £2.00!

    Skincare for most of us is part of our everyday routine. We all want different things from the products we put on our face, which means it’s great to have a variety of different brands on the market. One brand that is a regular in my household is Simple. The brand gears towards people who want or/and need products that are effective, affordable, but more importantly contain or leave out ingredients for more sensitive skin. That’s why it was great to see a small selection of their products in my local Farmfoods store at lower prices compared to other places on the high street. So what did I find?

    If you’re someone who uses this range and these products, visiting Farmfoods is a must. The prices are cheaper compared to other stores, but these aren’t necessarily regular stock items and the products available were limited. But any savings count, right?

  • I Bought Impulse Body Mists for 89p From Farmfoods!

    Farmfoods. If you’re lucky to have one close to where you live or work, I would definitely recommend a visit. Not only is it a good store to pick up great priced food items but as I’ve discovered personal care items as well. My local Farmfoods doesn’t have a massive range of body, skincare or fragrance products available but I found something that caught my eye recently. I spotted Impulse body mists for 89p in the fragrances Petal Pop and Tropic Twist. So what are they like?

    Impulse Body Mists in Farmfoods
    Packaging

    Nothing ground breaking but these body mists come in the usual plastic bottle with a spray top to dispense. Clear, with a colourful label on the front. Quite youthful in look and not taking itself too serious.

    Size

    Both of these body mists are 100ml. This is probably the perfect size to carry around, whether that’s in a school blazer, hand bag or even coat pocket.

    Fragrances

    Petal Pop smells like it’s name suggests. It’s very floral and quite sweet. Feminine, and almost perfume like so a good blend of different floral notes. Tropic Twist is a mix of tropical fruity scents, such as coconut, with some citrus thrown in. Fruity, lively and fun.

    Strength & Longevity

    I’ve used both Petal Pop and Tropic Twist. As usual I spray fragrances onto my clothes and not skin. I found the strength was quite light, so I applied a lot to get the desired hit of fragrance. The longevity wasn’t the best. I could barely smell it an hour after use. Its important to mention that I am dealing with the joys of hay fever at the moment. How I find the performance of these body mists maybe different when pollen isn’t trying to kill me.

    Recommended?

    Decent sizes, nice scents, fun packaging. But the strength and longevity of these Impulse body mists for me wasn’t great. For how much these cost, I didn’t feel the need to skimp on using so much. In fact I was almost justified. These could be stronger thanks to hay fever, but purely for the price alone I would say give this a go regardless. The worst that could happen is a waste of 89p!
