Summer Sprays !

I think I have a thing for products that come in spray form. In today's post I share with you some spray products that I enjoy in the warmer months.

Vaseline Intensive Care Spray Moisturiser

I love the Vaseline Spray Moisturiser. It is perfect for lazy girls like me or when you are in a rush. I have used up one bottle of this before, the Aloe Vera variant.  These are perfect for summer as they are light, non greasy and absorb quickly. Review HERE

Sukin Hydrating Mist Toner

I aboslutely adore this toner, this is my third bottle of this. It is a spray toner that has chamomile and rosewater and is incredibly soothing and refreshing on the skin. It has an awesome smell. Review HERE

MAC Fix+

I tend to use MAC Fix+ more in the warmer months. I like the finish it gives over makeup. Your skin looks more skin like with this. I even spray it sometimes when I am not wearing base makeup. It has a divine smell and feels so good on the skin. 

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist Sunscreen Spray SPF 30+

I don't like sticky sunscreens that take ages to absorb into the skin and leave a whitecast. So this Neutrogena spray is my go to body sunscreen in summer. I have used a couple of bottles of this. Review HERE

Review - Sukin Purifying Body Scrub

Sukin is an Australian brand that offers affordable natural skincare.  Sukin products do not contain Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS), Sodium Laureth Sulphate (SLES),  synthetic fragrances, animal derivatives, harsh detergents, propylene glycol, artificial colours, triethanolamine, mineral oils, EDTA, or parabens.

My first Sukin product was the "Hydrating Mist Toner" which I really love and have also repurchased it. Today, I am reviewing 'Sukin Purifying Body Scrub'

What the company says :  
With micro particles of bamboo extract and ground walnut shells to purify combined with aloe vera, chamomile, rose hip, jojoba and sesame to hydrate skin.

This full body scrub gently polishes and refines skin texture leaving clean, radiant skin. Enriched with aloe vera and chamomile to soothe skin and rosehip, jojoba and sesame to replenish and revitalise

I have been really enjoying this scrub lately. I use it two-three times a week. The only thing that I don't like a lot is the smell.

The Good

• Nice Flip top packaging - very convenient to use in the shower (easy to grip and dispense the product as compared to pots)
• Leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth 
• Affordable and easily available 
• Gentle scrub, so should be good for sensitive skin (pls, note I have normal to dry skin)

The Bad

• Not a big fan of the smell
• Would have preferred if the scrub was a bit more gritty

The Price 

12.95 AUD (200 ml)

Where to Buy

Priceline, Sukin website

Overall, Sukin Body scrub is a great value for money. Leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth. Also, should suit all skin types. Definitely, worth a try !

My Staple Sunscreens

Back in India, I never used to apply sunscreens. But since I have shifted to Sydney, I am regular with sunscreens, you just cannot do without them.

I dislike the sticky/oily/shiny feeling that come along with most of the sunscreens and thus somehow I have found it difficult to use them on a day to day basis. Finally, I have found two products that I like and work for me and feel light on my skin.

Olay Complete Defence daily UV moisturizing lotion (SPF30+), Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist Sunscreen Spray (SPF30+)

So now without any ado I have reviews of two of my favorite products :

Olay Complete Defence daily UV moisturizing lotion (SPF30+) - approx AUD 14

This moisturizer works great for me (I have normal to dry skin). It does what it says. Below are the good points : 

• This lotion moisturizes well and absorbs quickly into the skin
• Non greasy - does not have any sticky feeling that u get with sunscreens and now has become my favorite daily facial lotion
• Comes with a pump :)
• Feels very light on the skin
• Comes for all different skin types 

 I can't think of any negatives. This product is a total hit for me.

 Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist Sunscreen Spray (SPF30+) - approx AUD 18

Like I said, I don't like the sticky and oily feeling of sunscreens. I first discovered this product as a GWP from a Priceline purchase in SPF 15. I liked it so much that I bought the SPF 30+ variant. I use this for my body. I love the idea of sunscreen as a spray, so easy to use and easy to carry. Below are the good points :

• Quick and easy to apply -just spray and rub and you are done.
• Light on the skin
• Non greasy
• Easy to carry on the go 
• I have always found it difficult to apply creams on my feet as they tend to get slippery n all after you put your shoes on, this mist is perfect to apply on feet as it is so light

One of the negatives of the product is the smell (can be a bit overpowering), you should apply it in a well ventilated room. But leaving that, this product is a total winner for me.

Which are your favorite sunscreens ? Have you tried any of these products ?
