New Lauch: These Details

19 November 2014
Happy Wednesday everyone!

I thought I would pop by and tell you about a new fashion launch which is launching as of today. Do you like reading/watching reviews before you purchase an item? I'm assuming yes, as thats the reason you are all blogging in the first place. Now you see this a lot in the beauty world but not so much in the fashion. 'These Details' has launched  to solve that problem.

Its a useful and easy way to watch 1-2 minute video reviews of products that everyday people like me or you have brought and tested. If your looking for a new jacket and wondered how it fits, what the textures like and how it feels, then this is the website for you. Its a great way to see what your buying before receiving it in the post, with the disappointment that it is not the item you were expecting.

As well as getting detailed information on the product, you can also comment on the video with any questions you might have which may have not been answered. You can also upload a review of something you have brought recently and see how it trends on the site yourself. The most popular reviewers can then become one of the founding reviewers for the site! How exciting!

This is a new and innovative way to shop so why not become part of the journey now?


This is my first video, so I need a bit of practise talking to a camera, but it was fun to make. Let me know what you think.
Love Khrissie

Review | Thea Organic Skincare

13 September 2014
I received these samples of Thea Face Renew Cleanser and Moisturiser a little while ago and was really intrigued to try them as I have been wanting to get more onto organic and natural products. I mainly wanted to see if they were any better than standard products that have lots of nasty ingredients in them. With organic products comes a bigger price tag but they say if you can spend £40 on a pair of shoes, you should do the same for skincare as its a lot better to invest in your skin than anything else, especially as good skin is the basis of good makeup.

First up in my skin routine was the cleanser, now personally I don't like cream cleansers as I've got so used to my micellar waters, but I gave it a go non the less. I found I had to use quite a lot of the product to take all my makeup off but using it as a second cleanse worked really well as it got any excess product off that I may have missed. I loved how it left skin feeling super clean afterwards! I also tried this by applying it using a muslin cloth, which worked a lot better for me.

It had a section on how to use it on the website but I find it's better to find your own personal way to begin with, but in this case using a damp cotton pad or muslin cloth was the best method.
This cleanser is made from lots of great ingredients like Aloe Juice, Green Tea, mango butter and lemon and orange oils. If you don't like scented products this won't be for you as it is heavily scented with strong citrus notes, which I personally love! I enjoyed applying the cleanser as the smell was gorgeous, not as refreshing as some cleansers I have used so I would keep this for my evening routine. After using it for a few weeks my skin does look brighter and slightly more plump.
Next up is the Face Renew Moisturiser. Now I love this compared to the cleanser as this is a really light formula, which is much more suited to my oily skin. The smell wasn't as amazing but I didn't mind so much. This is also made of the same kind of ingredients as the cleanser so if I was to buy the full version I would definitely head for the moisturiser as it gives me the same results being that the ingredients are doing all the hard work. 

You can buy a sample of the moisturiser for £8.95 if you wanted to give this brand a go and your into natural and organic products. They also have other ranges for different skin types which you can choose from. Overall I'm quite satisfied with the results. You always expect more when the products are organic but it may just be that natural ingredients that are just doing more good for your skin in general rather than a quick fix that a lot of the animal tested brands give you. 

I would like to test some more of their products from the different ranges as thats where I have my skin problems, especially interested in the rosehip and white tea mask for sensitive skin
Is there anything you are interested in you would like me to try?

All products are paraben and cruelty free and are also vegan friendly.
