Below The Belt Male Grooming Review

Hey Guys! 
Today I am reviewing a collection of products that was very kindly sent to me by Below The Belt Grooming. This company really caught my attention as they are catering to a problem that no one has ever really done anything about, the problems men can face below the belt. 

THE REVIEW

I was sent all three of their products, Waterless Shower, Sports Lubricant and Fresh And Dry Balls. 

Waterless Shower:
What is it? It's a gel cleanser for the male groin. 
This is how the product is described:  

At the end of the day, and you are going out straight from work, at a festival, on a long haul flight or just going to bed, this product cleanses you instantly so you are good to go. No need for a shower, it is instantly absorbed and effective. It will REFRESH.

It is a refreshing cleanser that makes you feel much fresher on the go. It would be 
amazing traveling or on city breaks. I am forever going places straight from work and working on night shoots at obscene hours so this particular product is a life saver. The only thing I would say about this product is to men who shave, I would NOT use this if you suffer from razor burn as I imagine it might sting. Besides that, it does exactly as it promises.

Sports Lubricant:
What is it? A clear lubricant designed to protect and reduce chafing.

 If you run, climb, cycle, play golf or ramble this smooth non drag product will prevent chafing or unnecessary discomfort. It PROTECTS.

This product is my absolute favourite. It is a life saver. I am a big fan of running and maintaining a very active lifestyle. Nothing is worse than going for a long run and hours later feeling the start of chafing. It is sore and outright unpleasant. This is a clear, mess free lubricant that you apply to any areas that are prone to chafe during exercise. It is absolutely perfect for guys like me who are fans of working out and keeping fit. It protects and moisturises the delicate, thin skin and effectively stops any workout related discomfort. 


Fresh And Dry Balls:
What is it? Antiperspirant deodorant for the groin.

 If you use antiperspirant, then use this gel below the belt to ensure dry comfort all day. It is a gentle formula which is absorbed quickly to leave a healthy dusting of talc like powder. It is not perfumed but uses only essential oils. It keeps you FRESH.  

We have all been there when we have felt uncomfortably hot or sticky down below, especially in the summer or at work. It is uncomfortable and annoying so I have often wondered why no one has ever invented anti perspirant to keep guys fresh there... Luckily someone who had the ability to make such a product had the same idea and created this amazing product. There is no scent to this at all, it is just a white gel that applies easily and creates a light dusting of powder to absorb any oil. It only takes a tiny amount of product to get the job done too so it is very economical. 

I am going to use SO much of this in the summer and it would be perfect to take to festivals or for people like me who have very active and physical jobs. 

My Experience With The Products:

I have used all three of their products for several days and found them to do everything they promised. The two absolute stand out products for me are Fresh & Dry Balls and the absolutely AMAZING Sports Lubricant. These two are amazing for anyone active or who frequently works out or just someone who really likes to look after themselves. 

A huge thank you to BTB grooming for sending me the products to review and you can buy all of these products from http://btbgrooming.co.uk/  and follow them on Twitter at @btbgrooming

Lush Soak And Float Review

Hey Guys, 
Today I am going to be talking about a Lush product that has literally changed my life and saved my wardrobe. The incredible Soak And Float Shampoo Bar. 

Shampoo bars are up there with bath bombs for products that are completely 100% unique to Lush and I was really curious to try one and so I opted to try Soak And Float. 


Soak & Float is perfect for people who suffer from dry or irritated scalps. Whilst I do not suffer from either particularly badly I have to wear all black clothing six days a week so flakey skin is my biggest nightmare (especially as I have black hair). 

Within one use of Soak And Float I noticed immediate improvement and my hair has never been so soft or silky. Soak and float has a VERY strong distinctive scent which I personally quite like. It smells weirdly like a bonfire. Which is caused by its main ingredient, cade oil. 

The shampoo bars lather effortlessly and last for ages. They can last onwards of one hundred washes if looked after correctly! Which for £5.50 is incredible. 

Have you tried any of Lush's shampoo bars? If so, what's your favourite?

Evolve Beauty Gentle Cleansing Melt Review

*This product was kindly sent to me by the lovely people at www.mypure.co.uk all opinions are my own.*
Hey Dolls, 
Today I am reviewing another product from Evolve Beauty, this time it's their Gentle Cleansing Melt.  This product is a sugar based cleanser designed for normal to dry skins. Like all Evolve products it is organic, vegan and NOT tested on animals. 


"Pure, unrestrained cleansing pleasure for normal to dry skin, and perfect for sensitive skin. Natural sugars melt away make-up and impurities leaving skin refreshingly clean, calm and hydrated.

This completely natural, soap free cleansing balm is beautifully fragranced with creamy Vanilla and can be used with a hot cloth for added pampering."

I have never really experimented with cleansing balms as part of my skincare regimen or professional kit but I must admit to being curious about them so when I was offered the chance to trial one, I leapt for it. 


The product itself is a thick cream/gel consistency that applies beautifully to the skin. On the application of warm water it transforms into a rich cleansing milk which dissolves make-up and leaves the skin feeling as soft as silk. 

It is supposed to be vanilla scented but I personally can't detect any fragrance to this product at all, which I do not dislike. 

It would be perfect for anyone with dry or sensitive skin or anyone who is searching for a gentle but highly effective way of cleansing their skin. I personally love this cleanser it is so gentle and it literally disolves make-up without stripping the skin. 

You can buy this cleanser for £13.99 HERE from the lovely people at www.mypure.co.uk

Evolve Liquid Crystal Cleanse And Tone Review

*This product was kindly sent to me by the lovely people at www.mypure.co.uk all opinions are my own.*
Hey lovelies, 
Today I am reviewing a product by a brand I have just discovered called Evolve Beauty. Evolve products are natural, organic, vegan and not tested on animals. Evolve Beauty also package their products in 100% recycled bottles. 

"Evolve Eco beauty is all about fair trade, recycled bottles, low carbon footprints and fabulous skin friendly hair & body care. All the products are made in the UK and are packed full of highly effective superfoods to make a real difference to your skin and hair."

The product I am reviewing is their Liquid Crystal Cleanse & Tone which claims to be a mild, 2 in 1 cleanser and toner. This is how they describe the product:
"An ingenious 2 in 1 lotion to effortlessly cleanse and tone even the most sensitive of skin.
Micellar encapsulated micro molecules lift and remove dirt without the harshness of soap whilst Hyaluronic Acid locks moisture into the skin, protecting the skin barrier and stimulating epidermal regeneration for younger looking skin.
This no rinse formula has the efficacy of an oil but with the freshness of crystal clear water. Delicately fragranced with rose oil, skin is left sparklingly clean, clear and glowing. "


First things first, I LOVE the packaging. It is very simple, pretty and practical with a distinctive design. I think it really differs itself from other natural skincare brands and has a real "brand identity" to it. 

The product itself is fantastic. It is a very mild cleansing water which removes light make-up as well as excess oils and impurities from the skin. It also lightly tones the skin and locks in the skins natural moisture which is an added bonus.  You get 200ml of product in the bottle and a little goes a long way. 

The product is designed for even the most sensitive skins and does not require the use of water so it is perfect for traveling or those who can not use tap water on their faces.

It leaves your skin so soft and feeling squeaky clean but most importantly it doesn't feel tight or stripped, just gently cleansed. It is also really effective at removing light make-up. It doesn't fully remove heavy make-up as there is no soap or harsh chemical base to this product. 

I think it is a brilliant light cleanser that is amazing for people who wear minimal make-up or
