Dr Bronner's Magic Soap


I first saw this on ASOS a while ago and liked the sound of it. One product that has 18 uses, must be good.

Instead of getting this from ASOS I found it in TK Maxx on a recent visit for £3.99! I got the peppermint fragrance but they also had citrus, rose and lavender.

Some of the 18 uses of the soap is shower gel, shampoo, toothpaste and household cleaning. For some uses it recommends that you dilute it in water.

I used this as shower gel and as a shampoo, so what did I think?

As a shower gel I really liked it, the scent was quite strong and in the morning really woke me up. As a shampoo it was horrible. My hair was left looking greasy, felt heavy and like straw. In fact my hair was that bad I had to wash it again.

As a shower gel this is a great product but for other uses I'm not so sure. Even with this is mind I would buy this again.

TK Maxx haul

I never really went into TK Maxx until a few years ago when I started beauty blogging as I heard that their beauty section held a few little gems.

As with the clothes and other items they stock turn over is high and it is hit and miss but recently I've found a few good buys so here's some of what I've bought.


Dr Bronner 18 in 1 soap - £3.99
Weleda shampoo  £4.99
Argan Oil conditioner - £12.50
Korres minis - £4.00
Spa dead sea salts - £4.99
Arran Aromatics minis - £3.99
Jewellery box (below) - £5.99



I already have a jewellery box but I wanted a smaller one for my everyday jewellery instead of just having it chucked on the top of my chest of drawers and hopefully it will mean the end of searching for that stray earring that has rolled off somewhere underneath!

This is a cute box with a lid that opens for larger items and a drawer which is great for earrings and rings.

One the beauty front I got a few other items but I've put them away already before I took these photo but review of those are coming up very soon. Other things I found in TK Maxx and resisted buying was a Shu Uemura mini cleansing set for £29.99 (I was very very very tempted to buy this), Rodial limited edition tanning kit for £19.99 (this is on ASOS for £50.00 reduced for £70.00). I was going to buy this but put it back, then got home and wished I'd bought it! They also stock alot of sets of nail polishes such as Models Own and Revlon for around £7.99 for 3 polishes, if you're not fussy about the colours in the sets then these are a great buy.

Have you found anything good in TK Maxx recently?
