Kelo-cote Advanced Formula Scar Gel


I have disturbed sleep quite a lot. 
I have nightmares. 
I kick in my sleep (sorry darling Hades, my poor babycat). 
I scratch/stab myself with my nails.
I have been known to talk, to moan, and to let out bloodcurdling screams.
And if you try to wake me, I have been known to punch people. (that isn't me, it's sleepy moz, a different version of me)


A particularly clever friend of mine once woke me with a feather on a stick.

*If you have any suggestions to stop/reduce the nightmares, let me know!

This post arose from me stabbing myself in my sleep.

A while ago I stabbed my chest with a nail whilst asleep and it scarred.
I usually don't mind scars too much, but this one is red and raised.
It is unsightly.

So I looked up recommended scar treatment products and found Kelo-cote Advanced Formula Scar Gel.
It is high in silicon and forms a breathable, protective barrier over the skin.
It has no scent and dries quickly.
It is recommended to apply it twice a day.

So here is the before:


Bottom right is not a bit of nipple, it is my finger holding my top, sorry lads/ladies!

And after a month of use:


See, not a nipple! Also, the lower mark is a sexy, sexy pimple.

Verdict: It isn't a dramatic difference, but I'm going to keep going with it, because there is some improvement.

Price: 1/5 ($38.42 for 6g)
Scent: 2.5/5 (no scent)
Effectiveness: 2.5/5

The Body Shop - Colour Crush - Nail Polish - 120 Relish The Moment

Honestly I though the nail polish from The Body Shop would be terrible. Like it was just something to tack onto their inventory to make a quick buck,

I was wrong.

This is fabulous!

The colour intensity is great, one coat gives you the colour you see in the bottle.
Two coats will give you full opacity.

It dries quickly, lasts at least 3 days without chipping (sans top coat), and goes on soooooo smoothly!
The packaging is fairly common but the brush is great (a must for nail polish).

I got this in the advent calendar and if I didn't already have SO many nail polishes, I would buy more colours.

Price: 3/5 ($9.95 for 6.8mL)
Scent: 1/5 (don't sniff it)
Effectiveness: 4/5

Sally Hansen - 18K Gold Hardener


This is my go to base coat for all the nail polish I wear!

It has actual gold in it and dries SUPER quickly, allowing you to get on with the coloured varnish quicker. It gives a smooth base to work with <3

It is easily removed and doesn't damage the nail (unlike other base coats).

This is a traditional Sally Hansen product in the sense it is high quality and does not disappoint.

Price: 1/5 ($16.95 for 10mL)
Scent: 1/5 (do not smell, but not overly bad for a nail polish)
Effectiveness: 5/5
