Eye Shadows

8 November 2014



I was very kindly sent these eye shadows by the lovely people at Deborah Milano, for those of you who don't know Deborah Milano it is a online store selling a range of makeup and skincare and also sell mens products! Personally i had never tried this brand before so i was very excited to try out this brand! I was sent two eye shadows from the 24 Ore Velvet eye shadows I chose these two colours which are numbers 07 and 19.  Number 19 is the eye shadow on the left, i find that this is the perfect beige colour for any look, this one is a lot more shimmery than the other eye shadow but its such a gorgeous colour! The other is alot more matt than the other and is a lot darker than the other as you can see. These eye shadows are both of a lovely consistancy as they both feel very soft and smooth and are so easy to blend! I absolutely love these and i would definitely recommend these to anyone especially at the price of £5.50! Also these are perfect for taking away with you as these are hie little compact eye shadows with an little applicator too!

Tropic Skincare

20 October 2014

 I was very kindly sent these products by the lovely people at Tropic Skincare, i was so excited as I've heard so many good things about their products and especially their Sculpting Palette Blush has even won an award so as you can imagine i was super excited to try out these products. For those of you who don't know Tropic Skincare was founded by Susan Ma who appeared on The Apprentice, this made it even more exciting for me as I'm a huge fan of The Apprentice. One thing i love about this brand is the fact that all of their cosmetics are free from harsh chemicals and cruelty free. 

Firstly i was sent the Body Smooth Polish 200ml £20, this product claims to smooth, polish and energise the skin and it definitely doesn't fail to do so! Firstly i love the packaging of this product, it is simple yet sleek. The smell is by far the best smelling Body Polish/ Scrub i have ever smelt, it has a very fruity, lemon scent and it literally smells AMAZING!  This product is to be used on damp skin and massaged into the skin, after doing this it really does leave your skin feeling fabulous, you're skin feels super soft and of course smells fabulous! This is honestly the nicest body scrub i have ever used and i will definitely be re purchasing this item again and 100% recommend it to anyone! 

I was also kindly sent the Sculpting Palette Blush and the Angled Brush. I literally can't say enough about this palette, it really is amazing! This palette has three different products in one, firstly is the Shadow, secondly the Colour and lastly the Highlight. I find that the Shadow is quite dark but then again i am like Caspar The Ghost but i just apply a little product to the brush and its works perfectly. The Colour and the Highlight are my two favourites, they work perfectly together and the colours are just lovely the pink is the perfect rosy pink shade and the highlight leaves your skin looking brighter and more radiant. This is priced at £24 which i think is very reasonable for this high palette and would also defintley repurchase this! Also to go with this Palette i received this Angled Brush that was priced at £14 which is about average for a a good quality brush, i definitely think this brush is worth buying as i find it is just the right size and the angled shape really does help to create the look you want. 

Overall i would defintley recommend anyone to have a try at any of the Tropic Skincare products as from what i have tried out, they are amazing and i will definitely be repurchasing.

Alchemy Oils

18 October 2014

I was very kindly sent this Grapefruit Hair Remedy Oil but Alchemy Oils, i was so excited to try this as i love finding amazing products to help my hair as i am definitely guilty of using too much heat on my hair. 
This products claims to help improve the condition of hair and help to strengthen hair and this product costs £17.99 for 100ml bottle. Firstly, i love the packaging of this product, theres something so simple and minimalist about this product that i really like, also this product has a very fresh and fruity smell to it which was lovely. 
This product is to be used before washing the hair to act as a treatment, i used this on both my scalp and the ends of my hair and i have very mixed results. I found that where i had applied this oil to my scalp it left my hair looking very greasy and was far to heavy for my hair. Whereas when i used this product on the ends of my hair it made the ends feel very conditioned and just felt overall very healthy. I found it weird at first how i had two different results on my hair using the same product but i think its down to the fact that the roots of my hair get oily easily. 
So overall i would recommend this product, especially to those who don't have oily hair but for those who do, just be careful how much you put on you're roots.

Zoella Beauty!

1 October 2014




First of all, how exciting is it that Zoella has launched a range of beauty products?! I was very excited when i saw this announcement as Zoella is one of my favourite bloggers so its amazing to see her doing so so well! I love all her products from her range as everything has super cute packaging that definitely is Zoe in packaging form!
I decided to pick up the candle and the bath fizzers from the new range! First of all, I love the candle, its so affordable and has such a nice sent that isn't too overpowering which i find in a lot of candles as this is subtle and sweet! I love the little tin that this candle comes in!
Next is the bath fizzers, firstly the concept of these fizzers are amazing its almost like a chocolate bar so you can snap off as many pieces as you wish meaning this is very very good value for money at £5 as this could last you 8 baths! This also has a lovely subtle scent! After using this product I think that this product feels very soft on your skin and makes your bath smell very fresh! 

What are you going to buy from Zoella's beauty range?

Holiday

10 September 2014






As some of you may know i have been away recently, I went to sunny Spain for 11 days so i thought id share a few snaps id took whilst i was away. 
We stayed in Playa Flamenca in Torrvejca, a place we had never been before but i stumbled across whilst looking for villas and im so glad i did, it has the prefect balance of quite but yet lively atmosphere of a day it was so quiet which was lovey to relax by the pool but of a night it had a lively atmosphere that was too rowdy. 
The majority of these photos were taken from the boulevard or from the market, 18 months ago they had opened a large boulevard centre which is literally amazing of a day it sprays mist outside of the shops to keep you cool and the shops of course were amazing too, they had so many shops similar to those at home and i definitely treated myself to a few items also what was amazing is some of the shops which are Spainish like Pull and Bear are a lot cheaper in Spain that along with the exchange rate made a lot of things a lot cheaper! 
Also the market was literally in front of our villa we only had to step outside and we were there so i thought it was amazing so couldn't help but take a few snaps! 
Overall i had a lovely holiday, soaked up some sun and spent lots of euros! 

Sweet Cecily




I was kindly sent these three lip balms by Sweet Cecily, for those of you that don't know Sweet Cecily is a handmade brand selling natural skincare products. I love this brand for a number of reasons first of all the fact they don't test on animals which is huge bonus and the fact that they use all natural ingredients so there aren't any harmful chemicals in their products. 

 There was three flavours Pina Colda, Espresso Martini and Mojtio flavour, (the espresso flavour isn't available on the website just yet) these are priced at £2.95 each. Personally my favourite one was the Mojtio and my least favourite was the Espresso one, i love the smell of the Mojtio flavour and the Pina Colda flavour but i found the Espresso lip balm a little bit over powering but i know that a lot of you would love it, but I'm just a bit funny sometimes when it comes to strong smells I think this may also be due to the fact i hate coffee so for those of you that love coffee then this is definitely for you! 
 In general i found that the lip balms were very soft and hydrating on the lips which is what i look for in a lip balm so i definitely can't complain and don't have anything bad to say about them at all! I also love the design of these lip balms and i love the packaging i think it is so cute and unusual for lip balms too!

Boohoo top picks

5 September 2014

Im loving Boohoo at the moment so I thought id put together this little post of my top picks from Boohoo.

First is the Penny Printed Shift Dress this isn't something id normally go for but I love the colour of this dress and i think it is very different which i love because its so hard to find clothes that are different from the rest on the high street. This is retailed at £15, what a bargain! 

Secondly is the Martha Floral Shift Dress i love everything about this dress, this is two of my favourite colours put together and i love love love the pattern on this dress and i think it would look lovely in autumn with boots, tights and a leather jacket and this is also £15.

Next this the Daisy Short Sleeve Shift Dress I've always been a fan of daisy print but all daisy print clothing seems to look so similar and i think this dress has a different print that i really like and i think is very reasonable at £12.

Next is the Jackie Crop Edge To Edge Jacket which is priced at £10, i literally think this is such a good price! this jacket would be perfect to go with so many different outfits and they also have this in white too! 

Next is the Val Buckle Trim Cleated Ankle Boot i fell in love with these boots as soon as i seen them, because i struggle to find a pair of boots i really like that haven't got a big heel on, don't get me wrong i love them when they have a heel on but I've been looking of a pair that have a chunky sole and heel on but is practical enough to wear on a everyday basis. I love my other boots but the heel just seems to high to wear on a everyday basis. These are £30 which i think is such a good price for boots!

Lastly is the Sally Ribbed Bodycon Dress I have seen a few of top and dresses around with this black pipping at the top and i don't what it is about it but i just love this and i think it is a bargain for £10 and would be perfect for autumn. 

What are you loving at the moment?

Ipanema

27 August 2014











I was very kindly sent these flip-flipflops by Ipanema. For those you who don't know Ipanema are a Brazilian brand selling a wide range of flip-flops and sandals for both men, women and kids. 

I can't say enough of these flip-flops, first of all i love the look of them i think they are lovely! Also these are the comfiest flip-flops I've ever worn, literally i don't think ill ever buy flip flops from any other brand anymore! Also what i love is the fact that these have quite a thick sole because a lot of flip-flops are very thin meaning they don't last very long and aren't half as comfy because you can often feel the floor as your walking so i love love love how thick these flip flops are. I can't find these exact ones online but there are very similar ones, I think all there flip-flops are very reasonably priced and would recommend them to anyone! 

P.s they have a sale on at the minute so i would definitely go and have a look
