My Recent Life Savers !

Hello Everyone,today I have a post about my recent 'life savers' basically just a couple products that have been my holy grail over the last couple months ! Hope you enjoy guys! x 







Simple cleansing facial wipes : Okay so I much prefer to take my makeup off using cleanser because obviously its better for your skin but everyone has those days where they need to take there makeup off super super quick and when those days come I still like to feel that my skin is being looked after.I bought these a few weeks ago and was delighted with them.They are really wet which means they don't pull my skin too much.They do a really good at taking off all the makeup but they are really softening. They also work well to take off eye makeup.

Bobbi Brown Long wear Cream Eye Shadow :This is a slightly more expensive product but in my opinion its well worth it.I bought it in the shade 'suede' which is like a medium brown colour. I used it as a base for quick eye shadow looks and it worked really well to help it last throughout the whole day.I found it very easy to apply and blend it out to help do a really quick brown smoky eye (comment if you would like a tutorial on that)  I was really impressed with it and wold recommend it so much.

Rimmel Fix And Perfect Pro Primer : I'm sure you all know how important a good base for your make up is,so after moisturiser my next step is always primer.I always love to try new primers but out of all them I haven't really tried one that was as good as the Benefit Porefessional Primer.I Recently tried the Rimmel primer.I was super impressed by it.It evens out the skin to create an amazing blank canvas to start your makeup.I would kind of consider it as a more budget friendly primer instead of the porefessional primer by benefit.

Bachs Remedy Rescue : Okay so this isn't a beauty product instead it's like a Health product. I actually have been really stressed lately so at night if I happen to be super stressed I take a couple drops of this herbal remedy and it is so so soothing and has helped me so much over the last while ! 

Real Teqniques Buffing Brush : Obsessed isn't even the right work to describe my love for this brush.It gives such an amazing flawless finish and blends my liquid foundation really well.

Barry M nail paint Limited edition : This was a holy grail for me over summer.The colour is super fun and bright for the summer months.I loved it because it lasted so well no matter what I was doing even when I was on the beach all day long ! 

Coconut and Shea Butter Lip Balm : This is one of those products where I have no recollection of buying it or where I got from. This smells like summer was trapped in a little container and sold in the form of lip balm ! It is so nourishing too ! And even though summer is over wearing this on my lips lets me have a little bit of summer all year round ! 


That's everything for today's post I really hope you enjoyed ! don't forget to follow me on twitter and subscribe to my blog !

Hot Or Not...

                       

Note : I know there are not photographs but I badly needed to update and my camera is broken and will not focus I will edit photos in when I can,thankyou 
Hello,(very) long time no see...I know and i do apologise I really do ! It wasn't because I am not passionate about my blog,because i am really allot changed in my personal life and I hope you can understand that and forgive me for my very long absence from the blogging world ! One thing that came from my break is I have a million and one ideas for this blog !So today I'm doing a post which I might make a bit of a series on my blog called "hot or not'?"   and basically it's just a post that will have some products that I loved and was impressed with recently (hot) and some products that disappointed me (not so hot) so lets get straight into it and let me know in the comments below which products YOU found hot or not ? 

                   NOT SO HOT ......


NYC SKIN MATCHING LUMINIZER FOUNDATION: I am a fan of the NYC brand So at the start of summer,I decided to try this foundation out after reading about it to be a good product,now first of all it was not expensive however that does not mean the product should not do what it says on the tin,it is meant to adapt to your skin tone which it did not,and it made my skin look streaky and dirty rather than glowing like it is meant to so overall I found this product not so hot ! 

BOURJOIS SMOKY EYES TRIO : This is something I dug out of my collection recently as I thought the colours looked perfect do do a brown smoky eye on a summer night,however I was very disappointed to discover the colours were not as they seemed,first of all the pigment in the colours was brilliant! It is not the quality of the makeup i had a problem with it was the colours in the palette they were not glowing and smoky as they looked to be they were red  toned and they did not work together to create a nice smoky eye in my opinion,they were just not that hot ! 

GOSH GLAMOUROUS EYESHADOW IN "GOLD": I really love GOSH  makeup and I have always bought little bits and pieces from it so I always have some in my collection.I recently went through some bits that I had stashed and found this shadow which I thought would be gorgeous in the summer days as it looked really god and shimmery,however when I applied it the colour really let me down it was much more of a yellow than a gold and instead of being glittery it was actually just shiny so I did not think it was hot at all  
                                      

                                HOT ! ...


SMASHBOX LIP ENHANCING GLOSS IN "ILLUME": 
I loved this recently as I think it gave the golden goddess look to my lips its a nude/peachy colour with a shimmer in it that I fond so natural and it was perfect to wear with a smoky brown eye,it really lasted a long time and made my lips look amazing ! I would definitely purchase another colour out of this lip gloss line ! 

RIMMEL LASTING FINISH FOUNDATION
I have tried so many high street foundations and Loved some and hated some but one brand that never disappoints me is rimmel,from the wake me up foundation to the appocolips line I am always impressed by the brand,and my latest purchase was no different ! I went looking for a full coverage foundation that lasted and this does just that,it does the job perfectly ! It is easy to blend,and doesn't look cakey but also does not leave me looking shiny over all I was very impressed with this foundation !  

SCHWARZKOPF CRYSTAL SHINE HEAT PROTECTION:
Okay so summer is amazing,but with it it brings sun and heat so when your adding extra heat with a straightener or curler its so important to mind your hair.I recently went through a few hair serums etc. but this spray was the best i have used so far!
 It's light on my hair and does not make it look greasy or damp, it smells amazing and gives my hair a great shine. 
What more could you want,? A reasonable priced spray that smells delicious and gives your hair a !healthy shine all while protecting your hair from the damaging heat ? Its a over all HOT product !
