What I'm Loving Right Now

I may have posted a few photos... but if you haven't seen, I've been away on holiday, so there has been a lack of reviews and posts the past month. Its almost Match 2018... HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?! If you're wondering how my New Year More Me is going, well not too bad thanks actually! I've changed up my diet- not fully veggie but I'm doing well- and I'm spending a lot more time with those who matter to me. ANYWAY, let's get back to the good stuff shall we...

What I'm loving right now. I've compiled a list of my favourite, whether they are all-time go-to's or new found loves, beauty products...

Twilight - Lush

Limited edition body wash that smells LUSH. I'm trying out more eco and animal-friendly products at the moment. I'll have to stock up on this again next December! 

No Oil Oil - Percy & Reed
I used this product whilst I was away on holiday and didn't touch the hairspray once! Amazing at preventing frizz and holding a style.

Chocolate Soleil Bronzer - Too Faced 
This matte bronzer is sooo smooth, I never get blotchy spots, and it smells of chocolate... what's not to love?!

Mon Guerlain - Guerlain
This is now my daily perfume - floral notes, but not too sweet! I'm not the best at describing perfumes, but if you like La Vie Est Belle and Si, I can guarantee you will love this.

Rouge Velvet The Lipstick - Bourjois
Such a lovely tone, it suits my complexion down to a t. I often find it hard to don pink lipsticks being blonde, but this is the perfect mix between pink and nude.

Better Than Sex Mascara - Too Faced 
I always rave about this product. SO much love, you have to try it!

Lemon Highlights Shampoo - OGX 
I have spent so much time in the past trying to find a good blonde shampoo. Some have sent me ashy, some bring out yellow tones. This does exactly what it says, awakens sunkissed highlights.

No Big Sweat Face + Body Cleansing Wipes - CliniqueFIT
My sensitive skin often prevents me from using wipes, as they sting and irritate my face. These wipes are soft and smooth - perfect even after a long day.

Born This Way... Nah Its Make-up

I'm a firm believer in buying whatever suits your skin, and if I can find a product for half the price AND it gives me just the same coverage... then I'm going to buy the cheaper one. I am constantly trying to sniff out the best deals around. I love a good barGAIN. As of recent I started my new job at DIARY Directory, and I was lucky enough to have been able to attend the Too Faced cosmetics Flag Ship Store launch in Carnaby two weeks ago, and my god the crowd was insane. Soooo many beautiful people in one room, that also made me think 'Jesus I have no idea how to do my make-up!'.

The event was amazing, influencer galore, and I then had my skin matched to the perfect concealer and foundation... Fairest and Snow, yeah I'm pretty pale! Now here's the important part, whether these products are worth it. In all honesty, I love them both and think they are fab, but if I had to choose one over the other it would definitely be the foundation. I don't use foundation every day, I am actually a concealer girl through and through, but this one is a bit too thick for my skin. I'm definitely better off with my Soap and Glory Trick and Treatment. But...this foundation is an absolute DREAM! You only have to put the smallest dab on and you are covered, and it lasts throughout the day. No having to re-apply at work HAZAH! 

Too Faced products are definitely a new favourite of mine and are giving Benefit and Soap & Glory a run for their money. Watch this space for more product reviews soon!

Summer Bronzers 101


So this post may be slightly pre-emeted, but I just can't wait for Summer 2016! So let's get those summer vibes going with my top 6 Bronzers to give yourself that sun kissed glow...

Benefit
£23.50


Just turned 15! Hoola is benefit's world-wide loved matte bronzer. I can't get enough of it, I use it all-year-round! It's great for stroking over your cheeks to wake up your skin, I also use it when contouring for nights out.


Too Faced
£25.00


This is another beaut! Slightly dimmer than benefit's hole but suits all complexions, giving a chocolatey layer that can be used all over your face to help give you a more chic than bright-and-cheap look.


Rimmel
£5.99


This just has to be one of the best bronzers, as well as one of the cheapest, this is a definite steal! whether your 12 and buying your first bronzer or a 22 year old off to work, this is great for day-to-day wear. 

the Balm
£15.00
Now unfortunately I have not had the pleasure of trying the Balm's Bahama Mama, so this feature should alternatively be on the I WANT list. I have only heard great reviews, suggesting its on par with the likes of Benefit. So when I get my hands on this one you guys will be the first to know!

Bourjois
£6.39
This was probably my second love, after Rimmel, a timeless classic that will be there for me through and through. Whenever times are hard and i'm low on cash this is the best bronzer to give me my daily need.

Bobbi Brown
£33.00


This one is slightly cheeky of me, as Its not actually a frequent member of my own makeup bag, it's always in my mums! I can't help sneaking it into my clutch for a night out when i'm in a shimmer bronzer mood, rather than my usual matte (sorry mum!).
