My Top 5 Personal Beauty Essentials!

As My Last Essentials Post, I've chosen to do my Top 5 Personal Beauty Essentials! 

These will all be items that relate to personal beauty.


Number 1 - Green Tea

I have green tea on here because its the best detox agent you can get. By just having one cup a day you can help reduce water weight, clear skin and detox your body. I aim for 1 - 2 cups of this little miracle a day. Also if you have this half an hour after a meal, it can aid digestion, which can help with weight loss. I noticed a major difference when I first began drinking this kind of tea a few years back, but since I'm not drinking it as often any more, I'm loosing some of its benefits. I would really recommend having a cup of this a day just to help your body remove excess toxins and clear up your skin. 

Number 2 - A Good Tooth-Brush & Toothpaste

These are essential not just for beauty, but good oral hygiene. Your mouth does a lot for you, so its a good idea to look after it. Brushing twice a day reduces the chances of gum disease, plaque build up and tooth decay; but brushing with a bad brush or bad toothpaste won't be too beneficial. I personally use an electric toothbrush, that tells me when I'm finishing brushing. I love using this as my mouth feels super clean after using it. I also go between two toothpastes; Colgate maxfresh with mouthwash beads and a sensitive toothpaste. I have a few sensitive teeth, but not enough to require the constant use of a sensitive toothpaste, so I use it once a day at night and the normal one in the mornings. By doing this I'm making sure all my teeth are healthy. Besides what can be a better impression than a great smile?

Number 3 - Deodorant

Contrary to popular belief, not everyone needs a heavy deodorant, but for those that do its an essential part of your daily routine. I have an anxiety condition, and one of my main issues is that when I feel very anxious I sweat a lot, but my skins also really sensitive, so I make sure to always buy Sanex's sensitive deodorant as it offers me the best protection and it doesn't irritate my skin. For me knowing that I do have a problem with sweating, knowing that I have a good, working deodorant is very important; not only do I know I still smell fresh, I know that its protecting me from horrible pit stain-age.


Number 4 - Dry Shampoo

I use dry Shampoo a lot more than I probably should, but to me its essential to have. I have oily hair and it only stays clean for about 30 hours before it looks horrible. I don't want to wash it everyday as that wouldn't be a good idea, so I use dry shampoo to try to hold it over. I also use this as a styling tool if my hairs too soft to stay sitting in place. Dry shampoo can also be used to add volume to super flat hair, so it has a number of really good uses! Now it also comes with the option of buying it for your hair colour so there isn't any huge white lines in your hair or root area! Personally I'm a huge fan of Batiste's dry shampoo and only tend to buy it.

Number 5 - Perfume

I adore perfumes! I love going into drug stores and spending ages in the perfume sections smelling all the new ones and finding ones I like (then adding a sample sheet I've sprayed into my bag so it smells nice too). Every Christmas and Birthday I always seem to be handed new perfumes so my collection is rather large, but I'm not complaining, I'm spoilt for choice! I'm currently obsessed with one I got from my boyfriends parents called "Romantic Embrace" (Pictured) it just has such a lovely, sweet, flowery smell that I can't get enough of. (No I didn't have to go and sniff it after writing that... maybe) I have no idea where to buy it, but if you see it, you have to spray it, its so divine. I also have a minor obsession with Daisy by Marc Jacobs at the moment. But perfumes can be the perfect finial touch to any outfit for any event!

I really hope you've enjoyed reading this, and the whole essentials set. If you have, let me know in the comments, and I might do another for clothing or types of products, like essentials from certain brands. Thank you so much for reading my posts and supporting my blog!
Until Next Time!
