Hi everyone!
Welcome to my new blog - beautiful re.creations - ! I'll keep this short, but just to introduce what this blog is all about and what you can expect from it.
I started this blog as I love to read beauty blogs myself and find them really helpful in deciding whether or not to purchase a product. I've always been quite careful about where I put my pounds and so I like to really make sure that I'm going to get a product that's good quality and that will last me a long time.
But I also like to understand why a product is good as compared to all the other products out there! What ingredients make the product unique? If it's a high-end product, is it worth the price?
...and what if it isn't...? I remember first coming across the ingredients list of a body scrub and thinking - wait a second - I can buy all of these things and make this myself! Sure, sometime I still like to splash out on a wonderfully fragrant concoction all elegantly packaged up to indulge in on the weekend, but there is also a real pleasure in creating something yourself.
I've enjoyed this and I thought it was about time that I started to share some of my thoughts on products that can be 're.created' at home, and reviews of those that are worth your hard earned cash.
So, I hope you'll enjoy this blog and I look forward to hearing your thoughts in the comments!

I bought this as part of a Boots 3-for-2 deal on Soap and Glory cosmetics. I'd been waiting for a good offer on these for quite some time as it's taken me a while to come round to the idea that £8-£10 for one product is worth my hard earned cash. I now am happy to spend this providing that the thing gets the job done right.
A re.create for you this time with a clay-based face mask. I was looking at the back of my Simple Deep Cleansing Face Mask a while ago and notice that I owned a lot of the ingredients already just from other parts of my skincare routine and from making my own mineral foundation (re.create coming soon!). After looking into the ingredients of a few more of the high-end face masks available I decided to look at my store of ingredients and create a face mask perfectly adapted for my needs!
Let me just start of by saying that I LOVE these - seems funny to start of a blog with such a straight forward review but I bought these beauties recently after reading a lot about them and they are simply fantastic.
