Uncategorized

img_1053-4

Guys, I think im in love…

I think I have found the BEST matte lipstick collection yet!

I was lucky enough to be sent the NEW Bourgois Rouge Velvet collection to try out and boy oh boy oh boy…. They are unreal.

The guys over at @Bourjois and @Influenster teamed up and sent out 12 of the most highly pigmented matte shades and they are truly beautiful.

I have never seen so much pigment in a lipstick and the quality is outstanding. The product itself is very rich and creamy but dries into a matte long lasting feel that will last up to 24 hours.

If you guys want to check out some swatches and see how PERFECT this product applies then look no further…

or take a quick glance below!

Does it work? COCO BRIGHT Teeth Whitening by Instant Whites + DEMO

Uncategorized

Well hey there!

I know I know, it’s been a bit of time since my last post on here but I PROMISE this is a good one!

I don’t know about you guys but in the summer there is nothing I love more than a good tan and sparkling white teeth to match! I think it looks great for pictures and for my upcoming wedding I definitely wanted to try out some products ready for my big day!

teeth

And no I do not look like ross… just yet…..

I was sent a product from the company INSTANT WHITES to try out and test for you guys and share my experiences with you and I have to say I am so impressed….

If you’ve ever seen those Instagram pictures of celebs holding a blue UV light and neon white teeth, yep that is now me with the COCO BRIGHT WHITENING KIT! (I don’t really mean neon, I mean a dazzling bright white smile)

I was initially a bit concerned as I have never used a teeth whitening product that included a UV light or activated gels so I was nervous at the thought but boy was I wrong…

You can check out my video here of my review and demo or just look below for a bit of light reading…….

 

These products are clinically proven and used and made by dentists and contain NO PEROXIDE at all! Wowzaa!!

The product is super easy and comes with simple instructions, the mouth guard (a bit like a gum shield) is filled with the activated gel and placed in the mouth, the UV light is also placed in front and that’s how it stays for 30 minutes!

After a very slobbery and slimy 29.67839 minutes later you take out the kit and rinse, leaving a minty whiter smile after the first go! I was very surprised at seeing even a slight result after the first use but the most noticeable difference was after the second attempt.

I DO NOT use this product every day as I don’t want to affect my enamel so I use this twice a week at the moment and I have been loving the results!

Take a look at the before and after results from ONE WEEK of use.

I highly recommend if you guys if you guys are looking for an AFFORDABLE teeth whitening product then give this one a go, as you now now it actually works! The only thing I would say is keep a ton of tissues handy as you will dribble quite a lot just like I did…..

I defo prefer leggings than joggers in the gym and these were only £6 and super stretchy and soft. They fit perfectly with a high waist so AMAZING for doing yoga and weight training!

SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

This dress though….

OMG it is beautiful. Its a suede like material so really soft and fits me beautifully. Ive had my eye on this for a while and so happy I bought it today. Its very feminine and again fits me like a glove and was only £13!

A failed attempt at a baywatch pose….

However this lovely swimsuit was only £4 and is a real bargain!

The material is actually very good quality and fits really well. It has a low back for added detail and I LOVE the colour!

DOES PRIMARK FAKE TAN REALLY WORK? REVIEW + DEMO

Uncategorized

img_1053-4

I have been asked so many times to do a review of the PRIMARK FAKE TAN. 

So my gorgeous gals, today is the day.

I have been a fan of Primark tan for such a long time and I wanted to share with you my hints and tips for making it look its best!

Not only is it super cheap, its actually VERY good quality for the price. Not once have I had that horrible streakiness like some fake tans leave and it isnt a completely overwhelming smell.

Its only £3 for a generous size bottle of the mousse and the consistency is really lightweight too – perfect to blend in to the skin flawlessly.

Take a look at my before and after photos.

 

If you guys have used the same tan as me then let me know what you thought in the comments below!

Loreal Infallible Foundation Review + TRY ON

Uncategorized

img_1053-4

I’m sure you have all heard of the foundation that supposedly covers tattoos?

Yep? Well I managed to get my hands on it and I have been using it for about two weeks now and I have…. mixed reviews.

To watch my review and demo then just look below!

or click HERE.

 

 

I know everyone has different skin types, from oily to dry to combination… but this foundation just did not work the way I was hoping.

Don’t get me wrong, in terms of covering blemishes and redness and acne, its flawless… but long lasting?…

IT IS NOT!

I would only wear this foundation for photos or for short periods of time as after a while it goes completely cakey and speckled on the skin making me look like I have scales. It sticks to my dry areas too creating noticeable cracks after some time.

This is just my honest opinion of this product and as I said, it DOES create a flawless matte finish but I don’t think it is for me.

If you guys have tried this foundation then let me know what you thought in the comments below as I would love to hear your reviews!

It certainly has been a while.

My life has been crazy busy over the past few months I have found barely any time to blog!

So this little post is just a general catch up and life update for you all so you know that I haven’t completely vanished off the face of the earth…

I work full time so on my days off lately I have been super busy decorating the house and garden which is surprisingly time consuming. I have also started to do some proper wedding planning as our date has been set…..

9TH SEPTEMBER 2018!

Eeeeeek! Im so excited but there is a lot to do so again I have been planning and prepping for that!

Another thing I have added to the list is my new instagram account for my home – I follow so many inspirational people and we all share ideas for around the house from decorating to cleaning – I love it!

Instagram | January

Uncategorized

img_1053-4

 

It is February and freezing, so i’m sat in my pyjamas – slippers on – cup of tea in hand – fire crackling – i’m happy.

I don’t know about you guys but Instagram is my favourite social media platform – I can literally spend forever scrolling through pictures of home decor, makeup and food and before you know it it’s been an hour…. or two..

Just Kidding… but not really.

So for those who may not have the joys of Instagram or haven’t hit that follow button yet, here are some of my latest posts of what i’ve been up to from now and through January.

16522631_10155731364504179_9130287_n

So this was at 8:30 am at Penarth Pier. I was on my way to work and it looked so beautiful, the sunrise made everything look so pretty. Im lucky to live near the sea and the countryside so i’m always snapping the world’s natural beauty.

16650086_10155731364494179_1028985109_n.jpg

On this evening, I spent 3 lovely hours catching up with blog posts, comments and social media. As well as have a cheeky glass of wine or two. I tell you what, this arm chair from ikea is so comfortable and is so cosy to cuddle up on.

 

16559093_10155731364499179_37122727_n

This Milani blush is the perfect colour for me. As I am naturally paler toned, this adds just the right amount of warmth to my skin. Alongside my Ted Baker lipstick this peachy pair is perfect for me.

16650344_10155731364489179_1279220758_n.jpg

Does this need a caption? I love bubbles! This was probably the most bubbly bath I have ever had.

16650344_10155731364529179_1510106530_n

I was super excited to get my hands on the Sweet Peach palette. The colours are so pigmented and they smell gorgeous. If you want to check out my swatch video and blog post then click HERE.

For those who are not familiar with Hygge, then I strongly recommend reading this lovely little book. Hygge basically means enjoying the little things in life like candles, cosy cushions, a cup of tea or in my case a hot bath with a glass of wine…

 16652065_10155731364654179_545106084_n

A table for two. This dinner set caught my eye and was a real bargain. It was from Asda and was only £14 for a 16 piece set. My flowers are also from Asda and I got them for £5 – another bargain. Not to mention my rose gold wine glasses from one of my best friends – Heaven.

16558818_10155731364649179_808967807_n

Shadeliers are IN at the moment. Not quite lamp shade not quite chandelier, these pretty things are from Next and add such an elegant feel to the house. I’ve got a matching one in the living room too..

16559140_10155731364644179_1825879910_n

These are actually the pjs i’m wearing right now. They are from Boux Avenue and are so cosy and warm for these winter months. Plus i’ve got grey nails in this photo and I was pleasantly surprised how nice they looked.

16559386_10155731364619179_405634264_n

Im so in love with this shirt from Primark. When I saw it on the mannequin I knew I just had to buy it. It has this cute bow tie on the front and looks great with jeans and heels. #Stripesforlife

16558556_10155731364579179_337728379_n

Anything marble, im there. This notebook was £3 from Primark and is great to keep in my handbag for those essential notes.

16559334_10155731364569179_1231231819_n

Ive been doing a lot of DIY projects lately and this rose bouquet is one of them. I used a candle holder as the vase and arranged the flowers inside. We also had some slate tiles left over so I made a decorative plate for the table. – Quite proud of myself.

16559351_10155731364574179_1789433588_n

Ive been after this Too Faced foundation for such a long time, and after hearing such good reviews, I couldn’t wait to try it myself. The formula is so creamy and dries instantly on the skin. It says medium to full coverage but you can definitely build it up on the skin.

16650496_10155731364584179_1933068920_n

I visited my local flower craft shop to browse silk flowers and was overwhelmed with how many there were. Im making my wedding centrepieces myself so getting inspo from here was perfect.

16559200_10155731364549179_617419908_n

So this stunning building is where im going to get married. We have set a date of 9th September 2018 and we viewed the building a few weeks ago. It has 8-10 chandeliers hanging from the ceiling with carved wooden walls. It was truly breathtaking and we fell in love with the place as soon as we walked in.

16521724_10155731364544179_696403262_n

Last night I wasn’t feeling 100% – full up with a cold. So what better way to spend the evening than with candles galore. It was so relaxing and I felt so much better after letting my body rest and recover.

Gosh thats a lot of photos.

Well as I mentioned guys, Instagram is my fave.
