My Favorite Lip Balms

Hello everyone, today's post is going to be all about lip balms. Everyone loves lip balms so today im going to be showing you my favorites. I have tried my fair share of lip balms and these are my picks.

Vaseline Aloe Vera
This lip balm is one of my favorite and has been for a very long time. Even though it dosent really moisturise my lips its just really nice to put on when my lips need a little bit of something. This is great to put on underneath lipsticks. Aloe Vera is my favorite scent because i think it smells really lovely, the original one is a bit boring, so i don't really use that one, but i do also really like the cocoa one, its smells amazing !!
Because this has petroleum jelly in it, it can be a very versatile product, you can put it on any dry skin and even on you eye lash's to help make them grow.

Nivea lip butter Raspberry Rose 
This lip balm is so lovely, it smells amazing just like raspberry yogurts. Its so very moisturising and lovely to use on the lips, it dose leave you lips looking a little white but that's fine by me. Again its lovely under lipsticks and this one really dose moisturise your lips. I really do love using this balm and really want to pick up some other scents.

Carmex strawberry in a tube
This is definitely one of my favorite lip balms, i use it every single day when i am doing my makeup, so my lips are nice and conditioned before i put my lipstick on. It moisturise my lips so well and it smells soooo good just like strawberry laces, if you haven't tried this scent you HAVE to !!

Carmex original in a pot
Carmax again what ?!?! Yes, well this is very different to the one in the tube, the formal of the lip balm is a little different its a bit more thicker, its great to put on your lips when they are feeling very dry and its a great night time lip balm to put on before you do to sleep. The first time you use carmex it dose tingle a bit but after you have used it for a while it dosent happen again, so don't let the tingeling put you off because carmex really is a brilliant lip balm.

Whats your favorite lip balm ??

Products i Have Used up #7

Hello everyone, today i have an empties post for you, i have used up quite a lot of products this month and im not actually showing you all of them.

Aussie Dual personality conditioning gel spray
I really loved this product it was very conditioning and made my hair feel really soft and look very healthy. I really enjoyed using it and im said that its finished because i think its been discontinued so i cant buy it again :(
VO5 ultimate hold hairspray
I brought this because it was cheap and the bottle is massive but i kind of regretted it because its not that good and i didn't want to buy a different one until this had finished, this bottle lasted me a good 6 months. the hair spray is alright it did its job but its not the best one i have ever used. I don't think i will buy this again.
Batiste fresh dry shampoo
Everybody loves dry shampoo, right. Im not really a fan of any of the other scents so i either buy this one or the original one. This is great just to freshen your hair up when its feeling a little greasy, or if you are just way to busy to wash your hair, if you haven't tried this already, wear have you been living ??
Next diamonds body spray 
I love the perfume version of this, so my mom brought me the this, and some other things from the range for me when i got my GCSE results last year. It was alright it didn't smell exactly the same as the perfume which was kind of annoying, but it was still nice to use to freshen my self up through out the day.

Nivea soft moisturising cream
If you have been reading my blog lately then you will have seen me mention this in quite a few of my posts, that's because i love this product so much, im sad its run out and im definitely going to be buying another one. If you would like to now more about this product click here to see my evening skin care routine.
Lush eau roma water toner water
I love this toner so much and im sad its gone, but actually i have had this for about four months which is really good considering i use this almost everyday. I will definitely be buying this again as its not that expensive, like some lush products can be.
Garnier body intensive 7 days soothing lotion
If you have seen my second from last haul then you would have seen me mention the gel version of this and i must say im not a fan, this is much better.The bottle has lasted me a long time and and i think im going to buy this again and give the other one to my mom, as that one kind of irritates my legs and i need something for sensitive skin like this one.
Next diamonds body wash
Again i got this from my mom last year. Its smells the same as the body spray. It was alright nothing special, i wouldn't buy it again but it was nice to use.

Thank you for reading and please follow

Beauty Haul

Hello everyone, so today i have another haul for you, these are just a few bits i have picked up over the last few weeks.

Clean & clear exfoliating daily wash, superdrug £1.99 (on offer)
If you have seen my morning skin care routine you would have seen this already. This a great exfoliater for daily use, it is very gentle on this skin and cleans it well. I brought this because i broke out in a load of spots and this really helped to clear them up.
Naked skin looking good soothing eye gel poundland £1
I brought this partly because i had wanted to try an eye cream for ages, as i have never used one before and partly because i now that this brand it meant to be quite good, but this first time i used it, i used way to much and it really stung my eyes, so for a few days i was really hesitant to using it, but i did use it again but this time i used a lot less product and it was alright but still stung my eye a little bit, i don't now if i really going to start using this properly as i really don't like that it stings my eyes !!
Clean & clear deep cleaning lotion, superdrug £1.99 (on offer)
As my skin was really bad, i wanted a liquid cleanser that i could use in the morning, to make sure my skin was as clean as it could be, and also to treat my skin. The product is self is very good, the only thing is the scent it smells so strong of chemicals. I also mentioned this is my morning skin care routine.

Batiste dry shampoo fresh, body care £1.49
Body care sells batiste so cheap so if you like this product but not the price, go to body care. Now im sure you all now what this is so im not going to say much.
Schwarzkopf got2b 2 sexy big volume hairspray, body care (around £2)
I have used this hairspray before and when i saw it in body care for really cheap i new i had to get it. This product smells absolutely amazing, it smells like cherry aid its honestly to die for. I haven't used this yet and i cant remember if its any good or not, but im sure it is.
TRESemme platinum strength deep conditioning treatment, Sainsburys (around £2 on offer) 
I have seen lots of people talk about this range and i really wanted to try this so i picked it up while it was on offer. I have only used it once so i cant give you my full opinion, but it is very lovely and i made my hair feel really soft.

MUA nail polish, superdrug £1
I saw these out the corner of my eye and i was literally drawn to them. Lots of people have been blogging about these so i really wanted to pick a few up. The old packaging was horrible so i am so glad they have changed them, they look very much like Essie nail polish's but i don't know it they are as good as i have never used Essie before, i think they are way to expensive just for a nail polish. I got the colours Moody Mink and Natural Days, Moody Mink is a gray, purple kind of colour i have wanted this shade of nail polish for ages so i am very glad i picked it up, the other colour Natural Days this is a very light baby pink i don't actually own a pink this colour so i had to pick it up as it was only £1. I really want to get a few more colours that i have seen some people blog about as they look lovely. If you want to see a whole post on these with swatches then let me know :)

Evening Skin Care Routine (updated)

Hello everyone i hope you are all having a great day  :)
Today's post is going to be my evening skin care routine, on Friday i posted my morning skin care routine which you can see  here, as i said in my last post it has been nine months since i had last done a skin care routine so i thought it was about time i did an updated version.

Lavera 2 in 1 cleansing milk
If you have read my blog before you would have seen me talk about this before, and lets just say i absolutely love this stuff. It makes my skin feel so clean, and the great thing about it, is that you can also use it to take your eye makeup off. Its very gentle, so it wouldn't irate your skin or eyes, and it dosent give you that feeling, when your skin feels tight, like its had all the moister sucked out of it. I use this cleanser when i am in the bath/ shower to take my makeup of.
Olay gentle cleansers conditioning milk 
This cleanser is also really lovely. I makes my skin feel really clean, cleansed and refreshed. It dose have a slight perfume to the scent but nothing to much, i do run this over my eyes and it dosent sting or anything like that. I use this to take my makeup off at night when i haven't had a bath/ shower.
Simple kind to skin purifying cleansing milk
Now i actually use this to take my eye makeup of, its really good for that but not so good for cleansing the skin. I always used to use this to cleanse my skin and i loved it, but then i stopped and started to use these other two, and when i went back to use the simple one, it didn't do any were near a good a job as the other two. So i decided to start using it to take my eye makeup of,  as i think creams are a lot more gentle on the eyes than liquid which is what i used to use.

Lush Eau Roma water toner water
This toner is really lovely, its the only one i have ever tried and i know this is the only one i will buy for a long time. Its very refreshing and cooling on the skin, this also helps to hydrated this skin which is a plus. Most of the time i spray it on to a cotton pad then wipe it on my face, but i think as the weather gets warmer i will probably start to spray it directly on to my face then wipe it off with a cotton pad. This is very good at getting any excess makeup or unwanted cleanser off the face.
Clean & clear dual action moisturiser
I mentioned this in my morning routine and said i mix it in with another face cream but i also use it in a different way at night time. If i have any bad spots that need to be dried up i will use this as like a mask, just pile loads on and just let in sink in and do its job. It dries up spots really well and also helps them to go away.
Nivea soft refreshingly soft moisturising cream
This cream is great, its very multi-purpose you can use it on your face, hands and body which i think is very good. I mainly use this on my face as a night time moisturiser, but it is also great for the body and hands. If you haven't already tried this you have to.

I will also sometimes use a face mask on my skin but not very often, if i do i will use the superdrug simply pure cleansing face mask which i reviewed here. I also use the scrub sometimes that is also mentioned in that post.
As some of you may know i do beauty therapy at collage, so i have facials almost every week and i must say that has helped my skin clear up so well.

Morning Skin Care Routine (updated)

Hello everyone, today's post is going to be my updated morning skin care routine. The last skin care routine i did was nine months ago so i thought it was about time i did an updated one. If you are interested here is my old morning skin care routine post.
I will also be doing a updated evening skin care routine so look out for that (should be up on Monday)

Skinetica spot treatment
I have used this for a while to see if it would improve my skin, but i don't actually think it has made a difference. I will keep using it though because i don't want to waste the product, and i like to think that it may actually be doing something to my skin.
Clean & clear dual action moisturiser
This product is amazing, its so good at drying up spots and helping them to go away. I have recently broken out with loads of spots so i have been mixing this with my Nivea moisturiser (which i will talk about in a sec).
I feel like if i mix them together i will get the results of both of the moisturisers, but im not sure if its actually working, i don't know if they are just both counteracting each other out. If you have oily spot prone skin then i  really recommend this, as it is very good. I also use this in another way which i will tell you about in my night time routine.
Clean & clear exfoliating daily wash 
I use this as soon as i wake up in the morning to clean my skin. The beads in it are very fine so it dosent aggravate your skin, which is what makes it a daily wash. This cleans my skin very well and helps keep my spots a bay, I haven't had it very long and i already really like it.
Nivea rich moisurising day cream
This cream is really lovely it actually saved my skin this winter. Its so thick and creamy, its great for dry skin. If you haven't tried it you really have to, they even do a version for oily skin and im sure it will also be very good.
Clean & clear deep cleansing lotion 
As you can probably tell i really like the brand clean & clear their products are so good for spot prone skin.
This product is also very good, i use this after i have washed my face just to get any extra dirt of and also to close my pores after washing, as this also works as a toner. The product its self is very good and i feel like it has really helped my skin to clear up. The only thing is the scent, its horrible it smells so bad of chemicals and its so strong. You to have be so careful when using it, if you get it anywhere near your eyes it will sting like mad, you have to be careful not to breath it in to much as well. Even though i have probably just put you right off this product, i must say that it is very good for clearing up your skin.

My Foundation Routine

Hello everyone, so today i am going to be showing you the products that i use for my base everyday. I don't use all of these products everyday, but i use most of them.

L'Oreal true match foundation
If i feel like my skin is looking a bit pale or if i don't have much time to do my makeup then i will use this. The colour that i have is very pale and it is very easy to apply with your fingers. This has a matte finish but the foundation its self isn't drying, i have dry skin my self and it doesn't stick to my dry patch's. I think this foundation would be good for all skin types.
Rimmel fix and perfect primer
This primer is very good, it keeps my foundation on all day and it helps my foundation apply very easy to my skin. Its a white colour and is very easy to apply to the face, a little bit goes a long way !
Rimmel match perfection foundation
This is my favorite foundation. I haven't tried loads of foundations but this is by far my favorite. The formula is amazing and it is super easy to apply to the skin. This colour is a little to dark for me, but sometimes i mix in the L'Oreal foundation, to make it a little lighter so it match's my skin better. There is a lighter colour than this so when this bottle has finished i think i might buy that one.

Fashionista ready to wear brush on concealer
I if have any darkness under my eyes then i will use this to brighten it up a bit, it is a brightening concealer so it is brilliant for under the eyes. If my spots aren't to bad then i will use this on some other parts of my face if i need some extra coverage.
Natural collection powder
I use this to set any concealer i have used, or if my face is looking a bit shinny.
Clinique line smoothing concealer 
I use this on any spots i have as the coverage is very good, it can go a bit cakey if you apply to much though. Its also not the best under your eyes as it can crease rather quickly especially if you don't set it with powder.

Whats your favorite foundation ??

My favorite blushers

Hello everyone, so today im going to show you my favorite blushers, i don't own may blusher and i really want to but some more, so if you have any recommendations of any cheapish blushers then let me know :)

NARS orgasm blusher
This is the only NARS blusher i own and i love it. The colour is gorgeous, its a peachy pink colour with gold shimmer in it, the shimmer isn't chunky but it adds a lovely sheen to your cheeks. The shimmer is so lovely you don't need to use a highlighter and it adds a lovely peachy pink colour to the cheeks. The blusher also lasts a very long time on my skin which is something i look for in a blusher. The blusher is very pigmented, silky and easy to use. Your don't need a lot at all, but it is very easy to go over bored with, but it is very easy to blend out. I can see this blusher lasting me a very long time, i think it is definitely worth the price tag.

Beauty uk blush in buff
I brought this blusher ages ago and only recently have i hit pan. Beauty uk is a pretty cheap brand, it is usually a brand people look past, but this blusher is very pigmented, buttery and very bendable. The colour is a lovely pink colour that has a very subtle sheen in it. I do like this blush and i may buy more from this brand as they are only cheap.

Natural collection blush in pink cloud
This is one of natural collection most know blushers, lots of people on YouTube and blogs love this blush, and i can see why, it is very pigmented, soft and very easy to blend out if you apply to much. The colour is a lovely soft pink colour that is totally matte. As it is very light it looks really nice on pale skin. This blush is only £1.99 which is a bargain. They also do other blushers which are just as nice. If you haven't tried one of these blusher you have to because they are so lovely.

What is your favorite blusher ?
