Stila Eye-shadow 'GoLightly'

My most worn eye-shadow looks is a neutral eye-shadow, nothing too bold. This eye-shadow by Stila is a neutral brown with green undertones.  It is quite an investment at £12 but i had heard so much about Stila and am a sucker for beautiful things!
It applies really smoothly and you can easily blend it out. It lasts all day on my lids with literally no crease and it minimises the oiliness on my lids.
 I must say it does look rather green here, it magnificently shows its green undertones though. I usually go for way more deep browns but this is definitely a nice change!
The colour pay off is simply amazing and it looks slightly golden in the picture below which is strange but it must be my camera!

Vivo Laquer Shine Heavenly

 Another perfect Autumn/Winter lip colour!

This Lip Gloss is from Vivo and in the shade 'Heavenly' and i adore it. It retails for £1.99.

It is not super sticky, but just as a normal lip gloss does, it will stick to your hair.
The consistency feels thick and really smooth on the lips. The colour lasts for around 2-3 hours without messing with it, so it is definitely product which needs to be re-applied.
 It has a nice applicator, which makes it very easy for you get to your lip corners.
Also the packaging is very sleek, but it does make it look cheap.
In a nutshell it is a wonderful product for £1.99!

Tip: If you pair this with Revlon Lip Butter in Macaroon it is amazing!

August Favourites!

This month has been a great month for me and it went by so quickly! We are getting close to winter/autumn time now, so i thought i would share my favourites this month. Alot of these have been reviewed so i will link them in this blog!



First is this Simple 'Kind to eyes' make up remover. I love this so much, it is very inexpensive and it gets the job done. I don't use this on the rest of my face, i don't recommend that either, but for just eyes it works wonders.

 I love smelling nice but don't like to spend alot, so this Natural Collection Vanilla Body Spray was the answer! I also have the Lemon&Lime and Mango&Papaya but this is my favourite. It is so sweet and it just makes you smell super yummy!
How could i not include the Baby Lips from Maybelline? In a nutshell they are cheap, moisturising and well pigmented. My review explains more -link-.

 Another lip product i have mentioned before is the Max Factor Elixir Lipstick in English Rose. It is a beautiful colour and lasts all day! My review explains more-link-.
I have been wearing this nearly all month Liz Earle Sheer skin tint and it is such a lovely tinted moisturiser. On holiday or in the sun you don't want to put to much on your face just something light so this is perfect!
My review explains more-link-.

 I bought this nail polish a couple weeks ago and been wearing it ever since (i am a sucker for pink!)! It is 025 Strawberry Fix by Rimmel, its last really well and has a nice consistency. I had not even realised this, but it has a scent which smell really fruity :).

 Last but not least is this moisturiser from Garnier, it is the 7 day hydrate in Mango! All i can say is that it makes my legs feel AMAZING when i put it on, really soft! For me the flavour/smell doesn't do anything i feel that they are all the same?
What are your favourites this month?

Soap&Glory SuperCat Eyeliner Review!

Doesn't everyone want to find that perfect eyeliner? One that is easy to apply while making you look fabulous? Well i think i found it?!
So this post is about the Soap&Glory Super cat eye-liner!
This product is £6, some of you may argue it is a bit expensive but it is worth it!

First of all, it is like a marker pen so great for you first timers to liquid eye Liners!
Also it applies nice and easily and lasts all day, i did the 'full day' test today as i went cycling and all sorts of fun activities and it stayed on with a bit of 'wear and tear round the edges'.
Correct if i am wrong but i feel as if this eyeliner has not been talked about much with the beauty community, which i hope will change because it really is a fabulous product.
I have never really tried Soap&Glory as a make up brand, but do want to try a few more products of that line.
Over all i give this 5* out of 5!

Clear Skin #2: Pro Active Cleanse Bar

Welcome back to my journey to Clear Skin day 2!
Today i have a soap bar?! Yes, a soap bar.
It is the Pro Active Cleansing Exfoliating bar- £14.99

As you can see it is for Acne prone skin, however my skin is not prone to acne it can get rather spotty! When you have lathered it up small bits appear which gives it the 'cleansing feel'. Although it has bits in it, it does not feel harsh on your face. Which is a great point about this.
It is on the expensive side of face products but believe me it works, i had reduced redness in my face and did not look like a tomato.
Overall if you are prone to lots of spots anywhere on your body and face i recommend using this everyday. It will reduce your acne/spots if you pair it with a good spot cream (hint what is coming next)

Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation!

I have to say before i bought this, i had heard so much about it. "Its fabulous, makes you look amazing etc". So i went into Superdrug the other day on the hunt for a new foundation, when i remembered the Wake Me Up foundation. Don't get me wrong i love Rimmel, it is one of my favourite Make Up brands, however i was very disapointed with their 25 hour foundation as i found it had an orangy base. I mean no one wants to look like a tangerine?! So i was a bit hesitant to pay £8.99 for their Wake Me Up but i am very glad i did!
It makes you look dewy, but not oily, as i do have oily skin and didn't want a foundation that would make it worse but it didn't. If you are extremely worried about this put a bit of powder on your oily bits. It has a slight shimmer which looks amazing in sunlight as it literally makes you glow. Finally, It has great coverage, i would say it has a medium coverage. So it doesn't give you complete full coverage but nothing a good concealer can't fix. If you want to get that shimmery glow but lighter coverage i reccomend pairing it with a moisturiser, which also looks lovely.
So overall i have to say this foundation is perfect for summer!
