So I haven't posted in what seems like a year!! It was not intentional just had had a lot of things happening in the last month and seem to be getting ill a lot too :(....anyways here is the long due ANATOMICALS REVIEW!!!
So the lovely people at Anatomicals sent me some lovely stuff to sample and I have to say off the bat I love this company!!! The packaging is delightful and whimsical and just makes me laugh! The brand itself is VERY purse friendly and the stuff is fantastic.

When I first received my package i was not in and had to go to the local post office to pick it up......as soon as I got the package i wanted to rip it open then and there!!! It was so.....FUN and bright it made me feel like a kid at Christmas...
The products came in box totally covered in blue tape(which you can see a little of in these pictures) the blue tape had loads of writing on which I did try to read but there was so much it had overlapped and I unfortunately couldn't read it completely...each section had a different paragraph written on it from what I was able to read. The label that the had attached on the front with my name and address on also had a side section with the same type of humorous writing on... fortunately I did take a picture of that :).

So when I finally came home and opened my package I was pleased to see that the products had carried on in the same form of whimsical humour as the packaging...
The first thing I noticed was a day and night spot stick.
I was so happy to receive this as I suffer from spots due to my combo skin and due to this some face washes etc make me suffer random breakouts....(and at 22 it is horrible to have!)

So as you can see the whimsicalness (just created a new word woop woop!!) has carried on in the name.I tried this on straight away, it smells just like a normal facial anti-spot treatment (mint and tea tree). I found that the day side worked better for me than the night side.

I have taken pictures of the box as I find the small story about this product very funny so cuto's to ANATOMICALS for this. The second picture is of the ingredients in the two spot sticks.
The second thing I noticed was a lip balm this also had a very funny name.
The lip balm is a clear liquid and has a very faint sweet smell. I personally love this product. It goes on smooth, a little goes a long way and it is not very tacky. Afterwards it leaves your lips feel hydrated and soft.

The lip balm tube comes with a slanted applicator with a tiny hole in the middle. If you put too much pressure on the tube whilst applying too much can come out so it is best to put very slight pressure on when applying. You can always more but you can never take away!
I like this applicator, I don't know whether it was just how it felt on my lips or whether it does, but when I am applying this product it feels like it has a slight curve that fits perfectly around my lips!
Yet again this product has a very tongue in cheek blurb on the back. Some people may find these off putting but I think this is perfect marketing for a target audience.
The next item I received I was so happy to get. When Anatomicals said they were sending me some samples to try and review I had a look on their website and saw this and instantly fell in love with the name! So when I saw I had got the product I was so pleased.
May I introduce you tooo....
PUFFY THE EYE BAG SLAYER!!!!! I loved loved loved Buffy the vampire slayer (I love horrors and vampires).
As soon as I got this I showed it to my Mam and she thought it was a great name as well.
I use this whenever I am stressed (which is a lot when you have a younger sister who is near her teens!), The only thingI could fault with this product is that the elastic is a bit tight when I put it on...I wouldn't say I had a big head so I found this a little disappointing. The back of the box has the usual funny paragraph on the back as well.
I find I have to hide this as my sister tends to nick it....I may have to purchase one for her when it is Christmas as her birthday has passed.
The last beauty product I received from Anatomicals is a face mask that I have yet to use. I am saving this for a night out in May (going to see a band called Ashestoangels then having a night out.)
I was very pleased to receive this face mask. As mentioned earlier me and pimples seem to be acquainted with each other quite frequently. I will post a separate review on this when I use it :).
The back of the product yet again had me kinks.
I have to say Anatomicals are very very very very good on product branding and packaging.
I also received two non beauty related items as well which I think is very nice of them!
A cute little badge with Anatomicals' tag line which is on all their products.
''We Only Want You For Your Body''
I have called my Duck Fred, he squeaks, he's adorable and I love the people at ANATOMICALS for sending me him.
All in all I love this company and their products....They have so many other products which I cannot wait to buy and try.
If you guys are wondering where to find these awesome, funny named, purse friendly products you can click here >>>>ANATOMICALS<<<<<<<<<
This is their website... unfortunately you can't buy online but I am hoping that will change.
The website lists their products and also where you can buy them.
Luckily my Mam has found a few of their products in my local morrisons and has invested in some of their body washes and scrubs!
So give them a gander and let me know what you think in the comments!!!

Rofl! I thought I'd seen the worst with Lush's Buffy the Backside Slayer. Thank you for introducing me to a new brand, I adore anything with a clever play on words. And I love their faux MGM website video. Off to scour the net for a place that offers international shipping.
