Latest Buys......


Hi Lovelies :) Hope you are all doing okay!! I have had another mini spend nothing too drastic for once!!

The Revlon Photoready Cream Blush 'Flushed' (£7.99) had to be mine. I have been wanting this for a little while and i think its the perfect spring/summer blush to add a bit of colour to your cheeks and something more different for me too. Really excited to use this. 

Next is the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation in '115' (£7.99) the lightest shade. This foundation is still a bit too dark for me as i am very pale at the moment. But i love the coverage and the texture of it but will have to use it more to see how much i really like it. 

Superfacialist By Una Brennan is a skincare brand ive wanted to try for awhile and im turning into a right skincare junkie lately. The Hydrate rose intense mask (£5.99) is another alternative to the Origins drink up masks in my opinion and is alot cheaper. The only difference is you apply the rose mask for 5 mins and then rinse it off but still leaves your skin super hydrated. 

The Tresemme Split Remedy mask (£5.69) is a  hair mask i really need at the moment my hair is terrible and needs a good cut. Hopefully this will help get some life back into my hair. 

Have you had a little splurge lately? brought anything that could be a holy grail item?

April Monthly Faves....


This months favourites have been pretty straight forward and ones that i have been using on a regular basis. 

The Charles Worthington Miracle Elixir Oil has been my hair saviour this month. Ive noticed that the ends of my hair has been quite dry and just quite simply looking not its best. Ive been using this oil every other time that i wash my hair and have seen my hair look more healthy and shiny from using this oil and something that im going to continue to use. 

Now this next product oh my days.... the Maybelline blush is GORGEOUS. The texture and the pigmentation is to die for. I have been using this blush everyday and its given me a lovely bit of colour that makes my skin more glowing with colour. I have not been been contouring with bronzer just basics this month and with just this blush it looks so natural and the staying power is amazing. It stays on all day. No joke!! Really worth it :) I think i will have to do a more in depth review on this beauty!!

The Elemis Papaya Enzyme Peel needs no introduction from me. Its simply a holy grail product that does the best job at exfoliating without being too harsh and its a lovely fruity smell to it too. I think i may have to stop putting it in my favourites as its getting predicable ;) but seriously its a good exfoliator to have in your skincare routine. Can not recommend it enough!!

The Illamasqua Obsess Nail Polish is the perfect spring colour. A beautiful pink fushia colour thats given my nail that pop of colour. I have been loving wearing this month. 

And last of all is the Maybelline Baby Lips. Its a great little lip balm to carry around that gives moisture to the lips with a peppermint smell. Its helped my dry lips travelling to and from uni. 

That has been a very short monthly favourites. Not alot of experienting this month but im sure too for next month :)

What have been your favourite go to items this month?

American Haul....

Hi Lovelies :) Hope you are all doing okay!! This post is one that ive been quite excited about. Even though its a small haul its all from AMERICA!!! i came across the site 'Cosmetics and Candy' from twitter where they a range of beauty, sweets and drinks from America that can be shipped to the UK. I have only opted for a small section of goodies. I love watching american youtubers they have some really interesting products :)
Of course the first thing i was eager to try out was the chocolate chip pop tarts i am a massive chocolate lover and i know here in the UK we have pop tarts but only the simple flavours. I had one of them  yesterday and heated it on a low setting in the microwave and it tastes AMAZING :) if any of you are a lover of Dominos Pizza Cookies then its basically like that with the 'gooey' middle but stretches out and with a slight pastry taste. So good :) I would love to try out more of the flavours!! mmmmmm yumm!!

The Kool Aid Pink Lemonade was just a random purchase. Ive always wanted to know what pink lemonade tasted like and its quite sweet with a sherbet tang to it . Not sure if im a fan but im glad ive now ticked pink lemonade off my list.



(Swatch 'Blush Twist') 

Having heard from beauty youtubers about the Covergirl Lip Perfection Jumbo Lip Twists i was really wanting to try one of them out. Roughly i would say they are the same price as the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains. The shade i opted for was the Blush Twist a beautiful Pink colour that is perfect for Spring. The colour is lovely and pigmented and the balm is so moisturising with added Shea Butter and Mango. A little bit definately goes a long way but it stays on for a good 6 hours or so i would say. 





The Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush is my 'go to' blush at the moment. Mine is in the shade Rose Petal and it gives the most natural looking flush of colour. It has a lovely bouncy texture that is really lightweight. I used this with the Real Techniques Stippling Blush and it applied like a dream!! I will be using this soon and a in more depth review!!


The Maybelline Baby Lips is again another product i was really wanting to try. Lip balms are forever scattered around my bedroom and in my bags. They always seem to disappear so another one needed to be mine :) I thought the peppermint one would be perfect. It doesnt have an overpowering mint smell and the moisture it gives to your lips is amazing. I love that it has an added Spf 20. Will be handy to use on holidays too. 

So that is all for my small American haul. I hope you enjoyed reading. I may try out Australia next? :)
