La Roche Posay Cicaplast Baume

For my second post on Brand Appreciation Week, I wanted to share with you a product that I have repurchased several times.



Cicaplast Baume is a must have for the household. It helps with sunburn, skin irritations, nappy rash and is in general an all round great little multi tasker. Recently I had really dry patches of skin on my forehead, a couple of applications with this and they were completely gone.

When in work, it is my go to product for any customer looking for something to help with a skin irritation.

All the ingredients in this baby are designed to be kind to skin. These ingredients include Panthenol, which is known for its healing and anti inflammatory properties aswell as soothing irritation and redness.


What I really love about this, other than the fact it is a brilliant multi tasker, it also has a lovely texture which spreads easily and sinks in quickly.

You can pick Cicaplast Baume up in either a 40ml (€7.50) or 100ml (€12.50) from any La Roche Posay Stockist.

Have you tried this lovely?

Shine On Blog Award


Last week, I was thrilled to hear the gorgeous Sarah from Adoreabubbles had nominated me for the Shine On Blog Award
 
As part of being nominated, I have to share 7 random facts about me so here they are.
 
  • I was and am a Westlife nut. I physical wept when I heard they were breaking up. Yes I am that sad.
  • I love horse riding, something I can thank my cousin for. If you were to get me an hour hack in the middle of the countryside, you would be my friend for life.
  • I haven't got a  note in my head but I love singing and having a boogie around the sitting room with the little man.
  • I love Robert Downey Jr, always have always will. Myself and Aundrea share this love.
  • I have to have the volume of the TV on an even number, it wrecks my head if it's not.
  • When I was a teenager, I was convinced I would never get married. This September I'll be married five years.
  • I'd quite happily sit for hours and watch episodes of Greys Anatomy
**Extra Fact- I love meeting up with my fellow bloggers for chats and cocktails**
 
Traditionally, I am meant to tag some other bloggers but I thought I would shake it up a bit and leave the floor open to anyone wanting to post or share some facts below
 
 
 

Staying Safe In The Sun With La Roche Posay

How incredible is this weather? I am really loving the bit of sun and heat but am conscious of keeping the whole family protected.The little man has his own Vichy sun cream but for myself I am using La Roche Posay Anthelios XL 50+ SPF Nutritive Oil.
 
 
 
This lovely is suitable for both face and body. It is also water resistant.  What I really like is although its an oil, you’re not left waiting for it to sink in. As with most sunscreens, you need to reapply regularly.
 
I was a bit worried how an oil would work with my false tan but luckily it didn’t leave me streaky. The only thing I’m not liking is the scent but that’s purely a personal thing.
 
You can pick this is up in all La Roche Posay stockists for €22

Brand Appreciation Week

So I got to thinking the other day about all the brands I have massive love for. While I was in that thought an idea popped into my head for a new topic - Brand Appreciation Week.
 
Each week for the next six weeks I am going to share five of my favourite products from some of my favourite brands.
 
I'll be talking about La Roche Posay, NYC, Vichy, LancĂ´me, Catrice, Roger & Gallet. It's been hard narrowing down to five products but I hope you enjoy reading about them. I'd also love to hear your favourites from each of these brands.
