We’ve all been in the situation where you have hardly any time to get ready and you want to look like you’ve made an effort and look your best. I recently popped together a simple but effective make up look that should mean you’re ready in no time at all and it even includes a soft and subtle smokey eye! Continue reading
On Saturday I had a last minute opportunity to attend BeautyCon London with the lovely Michelle from Black Girls Blush. We spent our day there looking around the different brands, listening to some of the talks and even meeting Patricia Bright and Sammi Maria! We had such a fun day so what better way to start my What I Wore Wednesdays than with what I wore to BeautyCon! Continue reading
I love sheet masks! They’re so much easier to use than a liquid mask that you have to either peel off or wash off and they make relaxing with a mask on a Sunday evening super easy! I recently picked up one of the flower fusion masks from Origins and I wasn’t disappointed.
So, I’ve been a loyal fan of the Camomile Cleansing Oil (£12) from The Body Shop for a while and have struggled to find an alternative oil that I liked as much. I recently decided that it was time to try something else from the range to see if it lived up to the oily sister. I took the plunge and picked up the cleansing balm despite not getting on with balms from other brands in the past…!
L’Oreal have been stepping up their game when it comes to masks and skincare. Last year saw the release of the pure clay masks which were raved about. When I saw the pure clay wash in my local Boots store I decided to pick it up and give it a go (after a few weeks of umming and ahhing if I actually needed another scrub to add to my collection).
I was recently browsing the skincare aisle in my local Boots store when I came across the new launch from Garnier. Their Micellar cleansing waters are a big hit with me and many of my friends, my personal favourite being the oil infused water. When I saw this gel hybrid, I thought I had to give it a go, especially as I was on the lookout for a new cleanser. I alternate between my oil infused water and an oil cleanser which has now come to an end. As I have enjoyed using the rest of the range I decided to pick this up, especially as it was on offer!

I love sheet masks and they are becoming more and more popular amongst brands although they were few and far between when it came to ‘affordable’ skincare on the high street. Last year saw the release of the Moisutre Bomb sheet mask from Garnier which I have used numerous times and loved. Now we see the launch of Boots own brand of sheets masks and I have to say, they are pretty good!
I seem to find that once I need to repurchase one of my staple products, everything starts to run out at the same time! I had been making a list of bits and pieces I wanted to try and headed to the High Street to pick them up! Continue reading
I love trying new make up and always look out for new releases from the High Street or High-End brands. With the high-end releases I really look into the product by reading as many reviews online as I can as spending that little bit more money on a product means its even more disheartening when it doesn’t perform as expected and it has to be put to the back of the drawer. I always worry however that the high street brands just won’t live up to the high-end alternatives. That is until recently, I’ve noticed that the high street seem to be really knocking it out of the park with new launches. Continue reading
