Nothing screams Sunday more than a pamper session in the evenings. After a long week at work and some plans during the weekend, there is nothing better than to give myself an hour or so on a cheeky pamper. What do I include in my pamper session? Have a read on.

First thing's first, a bath. I have showers during the week but I so look forward to a Sunday night bath. A hot (well, warm as I can't stand it too hot) bubble bath. Heaven. I'm currently using the Radox Feel Relaxed bubble soak. The lavender scent is so calming and it's one of my favourites. I just feel like I'm going to have a good night's sleep and sets me up so right for the week ahead.

Whilst I'm having a bath, it's a pretty good opportunity to shave my legs. I don't do this every Sunday, simply because sometimes I can't be bothered. But, that feeling when you've got freshly shaved legs and you go to put your PJs on or you have fresh sheets on the bed. Oh, that's such a good feeling. I normally use some sort of cream or gel, usually Soap & Glory Sugar Crush Body Wash (smells amaze) to shave my legs, nothing too special.

Next on the Sunday pamper agenda, painting my nails. Like shaving my legs, I don't do this every Sunday but I tend to usually change to a new colour if I've already got some on and it's all chipped or if after I've left it a week or two with not wearing any. I've got quite a lot of nail varnishes hidden away that I want to get into using but I just like the look of fresh nails on a Monday morning but I'm so naff at painting nails that I smudge/chip them so easily.

A face mask, of course. I go on about face masks so often and have a little stash of them, all of different brands, scents, types etc. but I just love sitting there for however long, and letting my skin have a bit of care, considering I slap makeup on it in the week. Once I've done the face mask, I'll then try and make sure I do my little skincare routine - which just consists of Pixi Glow Tonic & Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate. Not much but it seems to work if I keep up with it.

Whilst I'm doing this pamper, I love having a candle lit and a cup of tea. That finishes it all off so nicely. Cherry on the cake.

I love being able just to give myself that bit of time in an evening that I don't really get in the week. What do you like to do in your pamper sessions? Let me know in the comments below, I'd love to hear what you get up to!

I love a good face mask, who doesn't? I've had many face masks in my time and some have been good and others, not so much but, one that I've been constantly going back to recently is the L'Oréal Pure Clay Mask. I wanted to slap on a face mask one evening and this was something that my sister got me to try, as it was one she just started using herself. I've used various products from L'Oréal before but this is the first face mask of theirs that I'm using so I didn't really think it was going to be bad.


Moving onto the face mask itself, it contains a blend of three different clays; Kaolin - which is a highly effective natural clay, known to absorb impurities and excess sebum (which is where you get oily), Montmorillonite - rich in minerals, a clay that is recognised for helping to eliminate perfections and Ghassoul - a pure clay which is highly concentrated in minerals, known to help clarify complexion. All of them sound like the perfect combination to help unclog your pores and leave your skin feeling soft and clean.


When it came to applying, I actually used a cheap foundation brush, which helped with an even coverage all over my face but using your hands will work too. It's a lovely, creamy consistency but once it had dried, it doesn't start flaking or go crumbly, something that I don't enjoy experiencing with some face masks. It drys quite quickly and once you've left it on for 5-10 minutes (I've left it on for longer sometimes), which is hardly any time at all, you simply wash off with a damp face cloth with luke warm water and you're done. Even though it was only on for such a short space of time, I can tell that it worked its way deep into my pores as my skin felt soft and cleansed. If my skin felt grubby before, this mask works wonders to making it feel good.


I used this face mask twice a week for a few weeks and I did notice that it kept my face clean, didn't get as oily and it seemed like I wouldn't get as many spots. When I started slacking, I quickly noticed that I got spotty and oily. On the box, it says it can do 10 applications and I'm close to that amount, maybe more and I still have plenty left so this product will go a long way.

I've throughly enjoyed using this so far and will continue using this, potentially buying the same one, or maybe another and mixing it up a bit, use two different ones at the same time and apply in different areas.

Do you own this face mask? Do you own any others from L'Oréal?
