Balm Balm - Little Miracle Rosehip Serum 

I think this is the third bottle I've purchased, so I obviously love it lol. I think for the price its a great product and works so well for my skin. I use it in the evening as part of my skincare routine before bed and wake up with lovely, young, smooth poreless looking skin. One thing I would mention is that this is not just Rosehip oil alone, it has a mixture of different oils which I think is a bonus as they work well together and the product smells amazing! I have a full review on my blog. 

Evolve Organic Beauty - Nourishing Hair Elixir

I really enjoyed using this, hair felt softer and smoother, I used a few drops on my wet hair and some on my ends when my hair was dried. I can't say anything bad about this product, its natural and contains argan oil which is great for hair. I love trying new products so not sure if I would buy this product again anytime soon, although I would recommend it as its a great non greasy heavy formula so would suit all hair types.

PHB - Anti Ageing Eye Gel Argan Oil and Rock Rose

I love this brand but some of their products have worked for me and some haven't. This eye gel is hydrated and makes skin feel supple however I don't think its helped with my dark circles but it is definitely soothing. It's a very light product so I think it would probably work better as a day eye gel rather than an evening one which I have been using it for. Overall I would say its ok, and probably would suit sensitive eyes.

Mario Badesco - Alpha Grapefruit Cleansing Lotion

I'd say this was an ok product, its a toner pretty much, however I prefer hydrating toners and I feel this dried out my skin alittle bit. It didnt really make a difference to my skin apart from cleansing it so not sure if I would repurchase this. These days you can buy toners that are multi functional, as in they exfoliate, glow, hydrate and cleanse so I feel I didnt get this from this toner. 

Balm Balm - Rose Floral Water Hydrosol 

I absolutely love their Little Miracle Rosehip Serum, however for a rose toner I found this quite drying on my skin. My skin felt slightly tight. The spray bottle was also abit dodgy, sometimes would spritz in clumps so its not something I could just spray on my face I would have to use a cotton pad with it.

Millionaire Hair Mist Oil

I can understand why this was so hyped up on Instagram, its probably the lightest hair oil I've come across that doesn't leave residue or feel like its building up on your hair but I feel its SO light it only made subtle changes to the textture of my hair. I have very thick wavy coarse hair and it made my hair feel soft but that was about it. I think it's just my hair type to be honest, if they came out with a more intense moisturising version for dryer thicker hair types then I would love to try that. I think this would work wonders for those with straight or silkier hair types as its a very light product and won't weigh your hair down. It also smells amazing, herbally and fresh!

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

Loreal Colour Riche Matte Lipstick in 640 Erotique | Review & swatch

Image
Love this range of Matte lipsticks from Loreal. I picked up two other shades but this is currently my favourite go to nude shade at the moment. It's the perfect medium deep warm pinkish slightly brown toned shade that looks so flattering on medium/tanned skin. I think its such a nice warm nude it would probably suit all complexions to be honest, it wouldn't wash you out.  My Final Thought The lipsticks are so pigmented and smooth and the lasting power is really good. I love the packaging and the crocodile print texture on it just makes it look so classy. Boots and Superdrugs in the UK have the 3 for 2 offer so often its worth picking up 3 shades, they are priced so reasonably and totally worth the colour pay off and quality. They feel so soft and creamy on the lips and they have a great shade range which I think would cater for all skintones, so one drugstore brand that will get a thumbs up for me! 640 Erotique lipstick swatch

Jane Iredale Mineral Pressed Powder Foundation Review

Image
Jane Iredale Mineral Pressed Foundation in Golden Glow I was really getting into Mineral makeup (and still am!) and I've tried a few different brands so I thought I'd review them as I go along.  I was looking around for mineral foundations that would suit my asian skintone, and I came across Jane Iredale on the internet, and realised there was a salon just next to my workplace that had their products. I bought the Jane Iredale Mineral Pressed Powder in the shade 'GOLDEN GLOW'. It comes in quite a heavy sturdy gold coloured metal case, which is really good and this can be refilled with just the pressed powders, so love that idea, great investment. I have eastern asian nc35-40 skintone and anything that has the word 'golden' in it gets me interested! Hence, this shade was right up my street. I tried using this product in different methods. One way is that I tried using it just as a mineral foundation on it's own. I used it with a lot of layers and real
