Earthnicity Mineral Eyeshadow in 'Iced Coffee'

Earthnicity Mineral Eye shadow in 'Iced Coffee'

 I'm on a journey to start slowly, slowly replacing high end products and drugstore makeup that have chemicals in them that aren't good for the skin. Although I have alot to go through and still get tempted with treating myself to high end foundations and drugstore eye shadow palettes I decided to embark on mineral eye shadows next!

I picked this mid brown shade Iced Coffee as I thought it would be a perfect everyday natural shade for me. It has slight flecks of shimmer in it, but when I apply it, it looks pretty matte which is perfect for a natural look. 

The colour pay off is amazing, Its really pigmented and you don't need alot of it to show. It lasts all day and didn't crease up on my eyes.It applies smoothly, its not chalky or flaky.  Being a loose pigmented eye shadow thought it would get messy, but not at all!

I love the cute packaging, its compact and easy to travel with too. As its so pigmented I might get a few more brighter shades like blue, or green!

Maybelline Coloursensational Matte Lipstick 987 Smoky Rose | Review & swatch - The perfect nude

Image
  As the title says, this is the perfect pinky dusky rose shade. Brown or beige nudes don't suit my complexion so I prefer going for the more pinkier shades which brighten up my complexion alot more. To tell you the truth I'm kind of over the matte lipstick phase now, have so many colours and even though they give a natural look, sometimes they can look really drying and fine lines in your lips can appear, making you look rather dehydrated than healthy! Anyways, the texture on this is really nice, its creamy soft and smooth, doesnt feel cakey or dry on the lips. It's perfect for day time, and work which I use it for, infact keep it in my bag. It does dry out for me half way during the day but most lipsticks do after drinks, lunches etc so not to bothered. My Final Thought If your looking for a perfect soft pink natural nude then this is perfect for medium to tan skintones, I think it would look really flattering on lighter complexions too.

It's Pure Organics Herbal Hair Colour Dark Brown | Review

Natural Hair Dye by It's Pure Organics in Dark Brown Review All I can say is wish I knew about this dye sooner!    My hair history this past year...I've gone through pregnancy hair loss and dryness, not to mention having a no dye period when I was pregnant. This is why I went crazy with the dyes once my LO was born! I ombre'd my hair which meant my ends were bleached twice, coloured and used toners many times to keep ends dark blonde and ashy. Then semi colours on the roots/mid length to keep my hair and a few greys dark and glossy. So all this basically meant my hairs been in a really dry, brittle and frizzy state. It's ruined my natural waves all because of wanted an ombre. Something I'll never do again as its hard maintain when you naturally have dark hair that has a tendency to go orange tinged. I've had regular trims which have helped but after a while hair starts too look rough, lacking lustre and no shine. I think this is partially due to a bad

Yes to Carrots Daily Facial Moisturiser Review

Yes to Carrots Daily Facial Moisturiser Review I bought this as I wanted a more natural face moisturiser and this says its got 95% natural ingredients. This is a good moisturiser for the summer as I find, once you put it on it has a thick dry texture to it, probably because of the SPF 15. When I use this in colder months I find it too drying and when I apply my makeup on top I fee it highlights the dry bits on my face like around my nose and forehead.  It's not the most moisturising product I have come across, I think they have different versions of this which might be more better in terms of hydrating the skin. I don't find this nourishing or hydrating for my skin, but it is probably a good product to take on holiday for warmer weathers as it has SPF15 in it.  My Final Thought It's not the best moisturiser I've come across, I probably won't be getting this again as I don't feel it sits well on my skin. My husband has dry, sensitive skin and whe
