New Skincare Review!

Hey guys, i thought i would do a review today on Soap & Glory's skincare must haves!

I was originally looking for a decent night cream, and possibly a facial oil initially, due to the fact i am reaching the age where i seriously need to get into a proper nighttime routine possibly leading to anti- ageing territory! Ahh!

I was previously doing my usual skincare routine, which was doing its thing, but i never really used a decent quality night cream, which my face was craving.

So i bought these...

Its the Wish Upon A Jar Peptide Rejuvenating Night Cream and Make Yourself Youthful Super Serum.

I didn't realise when i purchased these, that the came looking like this! Pretty expensive packaging if you ask me, and for the price its a bargain!!

So lets do the pros first....

1. Love the packaging- both super futuristic, love the chrome look on all their skincare lately 
2. Smells really nice too, almost a toffee like scent- not strong, on the serum, the night cream is almost citrus- like, so very nice all in all 
3. Good for the price- both were under the £20 price range bracket- i think these are still on a promotion (will leave link below)
4. I like that its quite a thick cream, not too heavy either, which can happen with night creams in my opinion. Also the serum is easy to use, its a pump too, so you only need a couple of pumps which i reckon will last a while too.
5. Left my skin looking brighter after a few days, especially when i first woke up (and trust me, i am not a pretty sight first thing in the morning)! 

Then the negatives...

The only thing i found was the  night cream, is a bit mean for sizing... its 45ml, which sounds alot, but its small, could be a bigger jar... The serum on the other hand is pretty decent, would last a while.

So really, not a bad deal, i probably would re buy in the future once these have run out, i am pretty obsessed with Soap & Glory, have been an avid fan for many long years.

June Glossybox!

Afternoon!

So the other morning, my monthly Glossybox arrived, and to be quite honest with you, i was excited! 

Its usually hit n miss for me, but June was a good one :)

The theme for this box, was Festivals and i think they got it pretty correct, considering i have never actually been to one, these would come in rather handy in the handbag/ car!

• Halo Fragrance Free Facial Wipes- which are super handy!!
• Kueshi Anti- cellulite Booster Lotion
• Essence The Gel Nail Polish in the shade 4 Ever Young
• MONU Spa Rosewood Reviving Mist- this is incredible, the scent of this, is wow!

Pretty good all round!

Remember to check Glossybox out, will leave the link below!

Mini Random Shop...

Hey lovelies!

I am so late with these blogs of late... not on purpose i must add...

I didn't mean to spend any money Wednesday, but that's the problem, when your car goes into the garage, and they issue you with a ticket into town.....

I didn't buy any food or a Starbucks- that's called CONTROL ahaha!

So all i 'had' to buy were these following items below.

So i bought, from Boots... 

• Biore Deep Cleansing Charcoal Pore Strips. Now i know, many don't like to admit, that they use these, but there are pretty good at doing the job. These were on a deal if i can remember too, as they are more expensive than the normal ones in the range. 
• A carton of Strawberry Ribena, well because i was very thirsty rambling through town, trying to kill 4 hours....
• Montagne Jeunesse Black Seaweed Peel Off Masque, so good as it was priced at £1. It was ok to use, although i did find it made my skin feel almost sore underneath whilst it was working... not a great feeling to be honest. I probably wont use it again... The other masks in their range are better.
• I was looking for pleated cotton wool, as everywhere only seems to sell the pads which are ok, but not ideal for removing makeup completely. 

Quite a boring blog, so sorry for that, but hey ho!

30 Days of Beauty- Day 6 and 7...

So a week in, and Day 6 and 7 is pretty much the same.

Day 6- Holy grails
Day 7- Favourite Concealer


I am quite picky when it comes to concealers. If the product doesn't cover what needs to cover then there are problems...

I have tried so many concealers over the years, from the cheapest out there like Natural Collection, to the expensive brands...

Which brings me to my 'Holygrails'.

Both of my concealers that i nip between daily, are either Collection- The Lasting Perfection Concealer in 001 and 002, and MAC Select Cover Up in NW15 and N18.

Both are on completely different prices ranges, from the Collection one priced at £4.19 to the MAC at £15.50

I tend to use either always around my under eye area, and more as a highlighter too. Super blend able too. Although the Collection one sets pretty quickly. 

All in all fantastic products, and will keep re purchasing!

30 Days of Beauty. Day 5- Favourite YouTube Guru/ Make Up Artist

Day 5....

Slightly different on today's blog... Favourite YouTube Guru/ Make Up Artist.

So i love make up, whether it be playing around with it, watching videos on YouTube videos, going to convention centres, or researching it etc... i love make up!

Over the past year or so, i have watched and subscribed to so many experienced artists and vloggers, who not necessarily are trained and qualified in the field- yet they blow my mind!!

So in my list +LustreLux +Gabriella ♡ @nixiepixi1 @pixiwoos are incredible.

Totally worth watching and are an inspiration, not just to myself but to many others all around the world. Its what i want to do and continue to learn in the future...

30 Days of Beauty. Day 4 Favourite Lipsticks

Day 4, Favourite Lipsticks...

I cannot wear bold and bright lipstick, my lips are too large haha! Too pouty, so i only ever really use lip gloss or concealer.

I also don't see the point in splurging on expensive lipsticks in my case either... Highstreet/ drugstore do pretty good ones in my opinion. 

My favourites are only really the Maybelline or Revlon Lip Butters. Last really well, and all under £10.

• Maybelline Color Sensational Pearl Lipstick in Kiss Pearl 832
• Maybelline Color Sensational Nude Lipstick in Tantalizing Taupe 725
• Revlon Color Burst Lip Butter in Sugar Frosting 005

Bye for now xx
