Products I've used up!

Hi Guys!

I'm soooo sorry that this blog post is late again, I have been really really busy lately. But from now on my posts should be on time! Fingers Crossed :)

So today I have got an 'empties' post, with drugstore products.  I got this post idea from Zoella Sugg, I love Zoe's videos and think her blog posts are really good, so I thought I would try this post! I hope you enjoy it!!!

Okay so my first empty product, is the Maybelline super stay 24 foundation. I have used this foundation quite a lot recently as I think it works really well on my skin. This foundation is recommended for people with oily skin (which I have) rather than dry as it gives off more of a matte effect, to stop the skin looking as oily. This foundation does what it says on the tin as it stays on for a really long time with a primer. I would definitely recommend this foundation. However, I won't be purchasing this foundation again, because I love testing out different foundations.   

The next item I have used up is the Casual sea salt spray by Toni and Guy, this is the second time I have purchased this item. This spray is absolutely amazing and I would definitely recommend you trying out this product! I use it to create texture in my hair, making it easier to style. I will definitely be repurchasing this item again! 

Next on the list is a morning face exfoliator, This exfoliator was quite good, however I don't think it was the right one for me, as I have quite sensitive skin and this face exfoliator was quite harsh on my skin, so I am going to be using my face wash/exfoliator by simple as it is more gentle on my skin. I am not going to be repurchasing this item again :(

This is Vaseline's 'Spray and Go' body moisturiser. I Have used this non-stop for ages, I think it is an absolutely amazing product. It takes seconds to apply and doesn't leave your skin feeling oily, I usually use it after a shower, before I get ready to go out. I will definitely be re-purchasing this product.

This is the Batiste Dry Shampoo, I love this product it gives my hair more texture and volume, which is a huge plus when I'm trying to style my hair. This product is also amazing because it comes in travel size which means you can either use it on-the-go and keep it in your handbag or you can take it on holiday with you. I tend to keep it in my bag to refresh my hair if need be throughout the day. 

Thank you so much for reading this weeks post!!

April Favourites

Hi Guys!

I have been waiting for ages to be able to post this! Spring is one of my favourite times of the year as the weather is beginning to turn into summer and the blossom is starting to grow on the trees. The sun is shining and there is a slight breeze, it's just perfect. However, there is lots to be said about summer as well!

So, let's start with the April favourites!!

(I will leave a link to all the products included in the April favourites at the bottom of the post)

My first favourite item is Marc Jacob's 'Daisy Dream'. This has been my go to perfume for the past couple of months, I also think that this perfume's packaging is beautiful! The scent of this perfume is very fresh and floral, as well as light and fruity

This is my favourite Mac lipstick at the moment as it is can match almost any makeup look. It is a cloudy pink colour, I think it is a very spring colour. I love to use this lip colour for more casual look, and an everyday look. To apply this lipstick I tend to use the Mac Lip brush 316, to line my lips and then I fill in the rest of my lips normally with the lipstick. I also line the outside of my lips with my concealer and blend it outwards, I think that this defines the lips more and makes the lip liner more accurate.

Next up is these two items which I bought from Superdrug, they are Revolutions VIVID Baked Bronzer and Baked Highlighter. I bought these two items a couple of weeks ago and I have loved them ever since. They both have a shimmer to them, which I think makes your makeup really stand out. The bronzer has a marble effect with a shimmer of gold. Once blended these two makeup products really complement each other! The Bronzer is the shade 'Rock on World' which I think is a really cool name and portraits the colour really well. The Highlighter is in the shade 'Golden Lights' 

The next two items in my favourites are my Kiko eyeshadow cream. I think this eyeshadow is more of a formal look, I use it for parties and events. I usually use this eyeshadow when I want my eyes to stand out more. The colour of the eyeshadow is a rose gold/silver glitter, it looks amazing when blended with a darker pink matte on the crease of your eye and blended into a lighter pink. To do this I use the No7 smokey eye brush, which blends out my eyeshadows really well. The eye shadow cream is called 'Metallic shine eyeshadow'.

This is my new Bomber jacket, I got this jacket a few days ago from Primark. I Bought it in Primark for £15 as I wasn't sure whether I would suit this jacket, However I really like this jacket and I have been able to match this jacket with multiple outfit. My favourite outfit to wear with this jacket is black skinny jeans, a plain white t-shirt, and a pair of converse.

This is my new favourite Mascara as it is a two in one. This mascara curls your lashes as well as making them seem longer. This mascara is very effective, although it is a very dramatic look and I don't think it would suit an everyday look, in my opinion.

This Eyeshadow palate is by Revolution and it has amazing colours that complement each other, I think that this palate is perfect if you want to create a brown smoky eye look. The palate comes in a plain black case with gold writing which I think looks really pretty, I also like the mirror as it is big enough to see your makeup clearly, and this also helps when traveling as you don't have to carry a mirror as well. It is called the Salvation Palate.
