Current favourites ( Cruelty Free )

I've been obsessed with the Tea Tree pink Grapefruit facial wash from SuperDrug. 

I wasn't expecting much from this, it has quite a runny consistency so I kind of pre judged it thinking it wouldn't be so great. But wow! I noticed it was taking off every scrap of makeup off my face after pre cleansing, so I though I'd try it out with a full face of makeup and after 2 washes every scrap of makeup was off my skin. I'm so impressed. It's not at all drying and it really reminds me of purity from Philosophy, which is one of the best cleansers I've ever used. 

Adding onto that I also am really enjoying the  tea tree exfoliating scrub. It's very concentrated so a little goes a long way. It's really great at removing all your dead skin cells and leaves your face feeling so soft and smooth. Hands down the best scrub I've ever used.

Mitchum 48hour powder fresh roll on deodorant. 

since I went cruelty free I've stopped using my trusty dove deodorant and thankfully this was the first one I found to be an even better replacement. You get a lot of product. It does what it says and really does keep me fresh as a daisy. Highly recommend.

Morphe pallette ACC2 and makeup geek single shadows. 

I'm so glad I bit the bullett and bought these. If you think you don't need them you do. They put Mac ones to shame. I can't get over how they are so incredibly pigmented, yet so in incredibly easy to blend. Literally takes half the blending time of most shadows. The palette was around £5 and fits the mug shadows perfectly. I love that it has a big mirror, holds just enough eyeshadow but is still compact for travel. 

Urban decay moondust - solstice 

This is just so beautiful, it has an duo chrome effect with fine glitter, looks stunning packed on or on top of shadows gently dabbed on. I keep reaching for this when I'm going out at night because it adds such a pretty touch on a makeup look. I also added it on top of a liquid lipstick and it looked incredible in person.

Nyx blush in solstice 

This is such a perfect bronze peach  shade. I love it as blush when I'm pale or tanned. It also doubles up as a bronzer. I use it to give warmth to my face. I'm obsessed with these baked blushes from NYX they are my fave and give such a glowy and fresh look.

Nyx tame and frame brow gel. Shade ebony.

Save your money and buy this, I prefer it to dip brow. It's so cheap and hasn't let me down so far. 

Sleek solstice highlight palette

I've been telling everyone to grab this for ages now. I feel like I don't need any other highlighters now I've got this. All the shades suit me, but like most people I'm obsessed with the bottom right shade. It looks dark in the pan but suits me when I'm paler then pale (Nars Siberia) or when I'm really tanned. I think this would suit most skins tones it's so versatile. It's just the brightest and most beautiful highlight ever. 

Kiko lipstick -901

At £3.50 per lipstick I had to grab this, there's so many shades to choose from. I love the sleek packaging, they are such a lovely formula and finish. Very reminiscent of Mac lipsticks but are cheaper and not tested on poor little bunny rabbits. 

Urban decay matte revolution lipstick in the shade stark naked

My Holy grail nude lipstick. I will forever repurchase this. It's matte yet not at all drying or uncomfortable to wear. Gives a beautiful velvet Finish. Nice nude when I'm more tanned, but when I'm pale it's just perfection and looks like it was made for me. Compliments my yellow undertones beautifully.

Nyx lip lingerie

My favourite liquid lipsticks so far. I love all the shades on me especially the lighter shades when I'm pale. Here's two i picked out 

Lace detail 

Push up

Urban decay naked skin concealer in fair neautral  

Holy grail. About the 9th tube I've been through but don't be mistaken it lasts such a long time. I'm such a concealer fiend, so I go through concealers so quickly but this has been the one I've found has lasted me the longest and has a fantastic shade range. I find this shade perfect for highlighting pale skin. 

Anastasia Beverly Hills clear brown gel. 

I have insanely course and unruly brow hairs. I always thought all eyebrow gels were the same but I heard someone say this was like hairspray for their brows, so I thought I better try it. It defiantly does keep them in place, I love it. The only thing is I feel like there's no product in the tube and it's brand new. I'm scraping around to try and get some gel on the brush. Let me know if you've experienced the same thing. 

Makeup revolution makeup setting spray. 

Love this! Buy it whilst it's in stock. Best setting spray I've used. Takes always that powdery look after powdering and I feel it helps the makeup last longer.

Alaïa Paris Review

   

Hello again, This is just a quick review/my thoughts on the New Alaïa Paris perfume. Here's a description I found on the essential website.

'Alaia Paris Eau de Parfum is a resolutely modern fragrance, crafted from light and shadow with exceptional materials.

In creating his first fragrance, Azzedine Alaia offers an eternal invitation to the Voyage. The result is an artcraft that is emblematic of his rigorous and idiosyncratic behaviour, with undeniable confidence and risk-taking. Just as his fashion sculpts women’s bodies, so too does his fragrance have a transformative action, imposing Beauty as absolute once more.

Alaia Paris opens with a fresh first impression of airborne notes spiced with Pink Pepper, before an abstract heart of Freesia and Peony Blossom on the skin. A base of Animalistic notes is complemented by Musk, bestowing a truly tactile, carnal feel to the dry down.

A fresh impression: Airy notes and Pink Pepper

A floral impression: Freesia and Peony

A bare-skin impression: Animal notes and Musk'

This immediately makes me think of a sexy, sophisticated and fashionable women, wearing all black, heels and sunglasses. Walking with confidence and leaving her beautiful smell trailing behind her.

Defiantly a fragrance for a sophisticated women with a strong character, a women who knows what she wants and how to get it. (Marilyn Monroe also springs to mind)

I got a sample of this and immediately fell in love. I feel the sample was noticeably sweeter or maybe more floral then the actual bottle, but after half an hour of so on my skin the floral was a lot more detectable. It's got a slight masculine, leathery hint to it but that's what makes it sexy. And woah is it sexy. Its mature yet feminine, I feel like it's a signature scent that will stay with you a lifetime and will forever be your scent, that is evocative of you when others smell it.

I would as always recommend smelling this in person and avoid reading reviews on perfume forums, I find people love to over study and pick apart perfumes online, rather then enjoying it for simply how it smells, but I find any smell with personality that isn't the usual sweet and safe scent gets hated on. 

The packaging is stunning, the set I bought comes in a simple nude box with black and nude ribbon. The bottle itself is thick, black glass with laser cut out detailing. A golden lid with swirl effect detail that adds a bit of prettiness to the bottle. I love it and think it suits the perfumes mysterious and sexiness perfectly.

I'm seriously loving this perfume and feel it's different to anything that's currently out there.

JOMA JEWELLERY HAUL

   Hey 😁

   If you know me, you'd know I'm obsessed with jewellery that has meaning to it, 

   so I couldn't resist getting these adorable bracelets from Joma Jewellery. 

   They make such great presents for almost any occasion 

   I found a website that had them with a 15% off saving

   http://www.yourgifthouse.co.uk/collections/joma-jewellery they are a family run 

   business and the bracelets arrived very quickly, so I defiantly recommend ordering

   from them. I bought five all together, matching horse shoe ones for my mum and I 

   and the daisy one also for my mums birthday.

   My favourite has got to be the Dream Catcher, it's stunning. 

   These bracelets look lovely stacked but I also love them alone.

   Placing another order soon, going to get 3 guardian Angel bracelets one for my 

   mum, grandma and I on the anniversary of my Grandpas death.

   Just thought I'd share with you guys in case you want to buy them

Zoeva Cocoa Blend Palette and Rose Golden palette Review and Swatches.

   Cocoa Blend Palette 

  Let's get straight to the point! I'm blown away by these palettes. 

  They the most visually stunning palette I've seen. Both are extremely 

  pigmented, buttery and soft I love every single colour. So impressed

  with the texture and colour pay off with these shadows, they aren't 

  dry or chalky at all.

  Zoeva palettes retail for €17.50 on the Zoeva website and are £15.50

  from Beautybay.com my palette took two days to arrive from beauty 

  bay with Free delivery. I think Zoeva is fast becoming my favourite 

  beauty brand. They have the most fantastic brushes and now I've tried 

  these palettes they've left me wanting to try everything from them. 

  To me they stand out from the crowd with their beautiful packaging, 

  amazing quality and such affordable prices. I think £15 for a top quality 

  eyeshadow palette is amazing for me this is a high end palette for a 

  drugstore price, bearing in mind the price of some drugstore palettes 

  and how much a single Mac eyeshadow costs, £15 is pretty cheap.

  I'm looking forward to seeing what's next from Zoeva, I would love them 

  to bring out some foundations and concealer, also a range of highlighters 

  for all complexions in the most stunning packaging, would be amazing. 

  I feel like a lot of effort has gone into everything Zoeva creates it doesn't 

  look thrown together, it looks like they really think about what makes a 

  good product and what people want.  10/10 for me 

June Favourites

Simple moisturiser 

Having really sensitive, oily yet dehydrated and acne prone skin I struggle 

to find day moisturisers I like, that can be worn under makeup. This is 

wonderful as it sinks into the skin immediately and doesn't effect your 

makeup application. Also a little goes a long way so it should last a wile.

Will defiantly be repurchasing this again.

Mac prep and prime fix plus

lifesaver when your hot, cools you down, doesn't make you look wet. 

Makes makeup last longer on hot days, can't say I'd use it instead of 

a primer but defiantly helps makeup to last.

Ex1 Invisiwear Foundation 

Favourite foundation ever! it gives a beautiful airbrushed finish.

it has such good build-able coverage but is so lightweight and not thick. 

Blends like a dream and lasts well. I've never tried anything like it.

Wish they had more shades because I'd love to wear this when I'm pale too. 

Following on from this foundation my faveoriet concealer that also gives such an 

airbrushed finish and looks beautiful in photos is the Maybelline age rewind. 

This combined with the foundation is pure perfection.

L'oreal Glam Bronze 06 golden bronze 

Bought this bronzer on a whim and I love it to warm up my face with 

Didn't notice it had shimmer in until I photographed it. 

Gosh Prep and Prime Powder - Superdrug £10. on offer regularly 

When it comes to powders I will spend a lot because drugstore powders

seem to look a hot mess on me. I use this to prime under my foundation 

and over to set, it's the most silky and leith weight powder I've ever used. 

It's way better then my Chanel, urban decay and Nars powders, it actually

makes them seem quite cheap and chalky. This is great for all skin types 

especially really oily. When I sandwich my foundation it doesn't matter 

how hot I get running around at work my makeup stays looking the same 

all day! I'm so impressed.

L'oreal colour riche - shade 134

Been into a bright lip recently and I've fallen head over heels for this lipstick, 

it's the most perfect shade of fuchsia, smells Devine, isn't drying and is very long lasting.

Prada candy florale 50ml

Such a beautiful girly, fresh and summery scent. Love it!

Osmo wonder 10 leave in treatment 

Have been using this for nearly 2 years and i couldn't live without it. 

I have insanely thick hair. I wouldn't even be able to get my tangle teezer 

through my hair if I didn't have this product. 

It not only protects your hair from heat, conditions it, untangles it but it also improves

the condition of your hair over time drastically I don't get any hair falling out anymore 

it also helps the hair to grow. You must get this product if you have thick/ knotted hair. 

I think it's £6 from salon services. But I'm sure you'll find it elsewhere.
