June Favourites



Glam Glow Supermud

I love this mud and I love what it's doing to my skin. My skin has been terrible the past few months and I was dying to try this so when I saw it last month I jumped at the chance of buying it. I use it weekly now and my skin is looking brighter, less clogged up and my pores are finally looking more like I want them to. I thought I would only get a few masks out of it because the jar is so small but it's not like that at all. For one you only need a thin layer and then there's the fact that it spreads really easy so you don't have to use chunks of it at a time. For a product that the price kept putting me off of I'm actually fine with the price now because I'm getting so much out of it. I have done a review of this at the start of June which you can have a read of here.

Fuschia Dramatise Eyeshadow Palette

This palette is great. The shadows are soft and blend really well together. They don't effect my skin at all which is usually why I don't wear eye shadows daily. The packaging is nice a neat with a mirror inside which I love. I have a review of this coming soon so keep an eye out for it.

Victoria's Secret Bombshells in Bloom Body mist

I've had this spray since November and loved wearing it on hot sunny days in Australia but when I came home it was cold and didn't feel the same. It's such a floral smell with notes of pink freesia, red apple and water lilyBut now the weathers has got better I've started to love it all over again and going through it like crazy. Seriously I'm actually counting down the days until my Mam and Sister head over to Scotland this month so they can get me some more in the Airport. Iv'e mad them promise and making a list for them too, I want everything with this smell lol.

Botanics Radiance Balm All Bright

I bought this in Boots a couple of weeks ago now. The first time I used it I love it. It leaves my skin almost glowing and even after putting foundation on it still has a lovely brightness to it. It really lasts under foundation all day and just gives me this nice glow that I think makes my skin look healthy and less dull. I love it and it was under €5 for a 50ml tube which I think might last forever so were can you go wrong. I really recommend this to anyone who wants to brighten up their everyday makeup. 



Thanks for reading.

March Favourites


I feel Like I only just posted my February favourites and now march is already over. Here's what I've been loving this March.


Real Techniques Brushes

I finally got around to getting myself some Real Techniques Brushes. I know they have been around for ages but I really like the brushes I had but I have had them ages and they where in need of replacing. These brushes are so soft and gives a good finish. I use them all the time now and so glad I bought them. 
The brushes I got are:
Multi task brush which I have been using for powder.
Buffing brush I use for my foundation.
Contour brush which I have been using for contouring and blush.
Domed shadow brush I use for highlighting my cheekbones.
Detailer brush I like to use for concealer
Essential foundation brush and pointed foundation brush I have been using when applying cream contour.
I played around with them and this is how I kept using them and how I found they worked best for me. 


P.S. Love Make-up Brush Cleanser

Since I bought new brushes I thought I should get myself a brush cleanser too. I picked this up for €2.50 in penneys and it works great as an everyday cleaner. I do still deep clean them with my brush egg and shampoo but only once a week as apposed to all the time now. I suffer from acne and I'm very fussy about only using clean brushes so that i don't make it worse. It's so easy to use all you have to do is spray it on the brushes then I use kitchen paper to clean them. 

Britney Spears Ionic Hair Brush

I got this as part of my Christmas present from my sister and have used it a lot since then but over the last month I have started to use it all the time. It works with batterys. All I do is turn it on and brush my hair and it gets rid of all the frizz and static in my hair. I was a little skeptical to it at first thinking will it really get rid of frizz but it does work and leaves my hair silky and soft looking. I don't even use my straighteners as much any more as I have found that just blowdrying my hair and brushing it with this brush gives it a really nice finish. I wish I had this when my hair was longer and really frizzy and I practically fried it with a straightener daily.

February Favourites

I haven't ever done a favourites post before but this month I have had so much that I like that I decided to do one. I have six products that I would like to talk about, some I have already reviewed and some I have only just found or repurchased.



Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

I know that everyone and their mother must know about this product by now and actually my own mother has actually started to use it and really likes it and mainly for the same reason that I do. It's not the first time I've used this. I have actually just repurchased it after not using it for a month or so and have started to love it all over again. This is so gentle on my skin but also leaves a really nice clean feeling. I use it to remove my make up as well as a cleanser for daily use when I'm not even wearing makeup. I suffer from eczema especially around my eyes which flares up very easily and I find a lot of cleanser or make up removers sting my eyes leaving them irritated and red for a while. Once something does irritate it it takes a few day to clam down. I haven't had any irritation from this at all which is such a relief. It also lasts forever, well not actually forever but takes a lot of use to even make a good dent in it. I use it every morning before putting on anything on my face and again at night when taking off make up.

Boots Time Delay.

This is a double action containing Instant Tautening Gel and Anti Aging Cream.

This month I tuned 27 and I know that's not old or anything (please don't tell me it is, I'm still trying to convince my self its not) but I know I should start using some anti aging products to prevent aging and I have always taken care of my skin and don't want to neglect it now. My sister recommended this and the fact that I should be using it ( thanks Ais if your reading this :/) and at first I was maybe a little insulted but then relished I should be in fact be using something like this.

It smells nice which is what I first noticed. It feels lovely on, it's not a heavy cream or gel and its not sticky. It absorbs really well and leaves my skin soft and although it has an instant tightening effect form the taunting gel it doesn't feel like my skin is tight and stuck. I use it twice daily once in the morning and once in the evening. It's not an expensive product and it's definitely cheaper then similar product from different brands. I have always liked boots brand products and found them good quality this is included in this.

Essence XXXL Long Lasting lip gloss 
Shade 07 Silky Red

I recently posted a review of this which you can have a look at HERE so I won't go on to much about it. What I will say is that the Matt Effect of this lipgloss is great and it is definitely long lasting I have no faults with it what so ever and being Essence is not going to make a dent on your pocket either. 

Essence Like an unforgettable kiss fragrance

This definitely makes it to the favourite list because I just can't stop using it. I love the smell so much I can't get enough of it. It's fruity and floraly and to me smells of summer and so girly. Yet again not expensive at all. It was under €8 another reason to love Essence. I did a full review recently which you can check out HERE .

Thanks for stopping by my blog feel free to leave your blog links for me to check out as I love finding new blogs to read and follow. xx Neads
