Moving House! - Beautifinous Will Be Back Shortly

Hello everybody!

Today I have some really exciting news to finally share with you all - we're moving house!

As you can imagine, moving house can be an incredibly busy time. It also comes with a whole range of issues regarding getting everything sorted and back into place. It's because of this that I wanted to inform you all that I will be taking a break from the blog for anywhere between 2-4 weeks.

Another issue that I will be having is that of tomorrow I will temporarily have no Internet connection. Therefore, Tweets from my Twitter account will also slow down for a short while.

I wanted to make sure that you were all aware of the situation so that nobody thinks that I have vanished from the blogging world - I can assure you that I haven't!

I'll be back soon, and until then, I hope that you all stay well!

Zoe. @Beautifinous

Dr. Paw Paw Original Balm review

The Dr. Paw Paw Original Balm is a multi-functional balm that is made up of a blend of natural ingredients, including fermented paw paw which is the fruit of the plant Carica Papaya that has been found to contain numerous natural healing qualities.

Today I have myself a tube of the original clear balm to show you! The Dr. Paw Paw Balm also comes in a tinted peach shade as well as a tinted red shade. (UPDATE: I now have reviews and swatches of both the Dr.PawPaw tinted shades of the balm online)

The balm itself is translucent and is sort of like a paste texture. It comes packaged in a small, bright yellow tube that comes in a range of sizes.

Lush Let The Good Times Roll review

Let The Good Times Roll by Lush is an exfoliating face and body cleanser that contains polenta, maize flour, cinnamon powder, corn oil and popcorn. It is also vegan friendly.

Whilst the polenta and maize flour exfoliate, cinnamon powder revives and stimulates. The final result is fresh, soft and glowing skin.

Lush Let The Good Times Roll

It comes packaged in a typical black, Lush branded pot with a screw cap lid that holds 100g or 250g of cleanser. As with other Lush products, if you take back five Lush pots or tubes to any of their stores then you will receive a free Fresh mask.
