L'Oreal Skin Perfection ♥


Hello Lovlies. 
Is it just me or have L'Oreal been pulling out all the stops recently? Love it! With that being said Tonights post is on a few products from the new Skin Perfection Range which I have been absolutely loving so enjoy. 


First up is the ever so famous Micellar Solution, this product is taking the beauty and blogging world by storm it keeps cropping up everywhere and so far I haven't seen one bad word said about it. It is also being widely compared to the popular Bioderma Solution, I have even seen some people saying they actually prefer it, I haven't actually ever used Bioderma so I cant make the comparison but I will say I am loving this Product :) So it works as a 3in1, It claims to dissolve Make-up (even waterproof), Unclog pores and remove impurities and lastly tone and soothe skin. This does a fab job at quickly removing make-up it leaves nothing behind at all. I have actually mostly been using this as a toner as I have been using something else to remove my make-up which is coming up next :) I love the way this leaves your skin feeling so clean and fresh, its unscented which doesn't bother me at all it's not greasy or oily in the slightest it really does just feel like water on the skin. I will definitely be repurchasing this when I have used it up. 


Now we have the 15 second Miracle Cleansing Oil, I literally am in love with this its brilliant!!! I was slightly sceptical at first as I wasn't sure how I felt about using an Oil on my face, my skin can be very temperamental as I have mentioned before so I was worried this might make me break out but regardless of that I liked the sound of it so I purchased some. The 15 second Miracle Oil claims to Dissolve Make-up and Re-balance and purify for healthy looking skin. At first I was like how are you going to wash an oil off your face as surely its waterproof, however when the oil comes in to contact with water it turns in to what I can only describe as a milky formula. You just take a few pumps of this and rub it all over your face massaging the eyes (if wearing eye make-up) and then rinse away, I cannot stress enough how well this removes make-up it removes every little trace and leaves your skin feeling SO clean, I used to use Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish but I actually prefer this, It also leaves the skin soft and looking really plump and healthy. This is without doubt my new favourite face product I will 100% repurchase this again and again and again I have seen vast improvements in my skins condition. 


Lastly we have the Radiance Revealing Gentle Exfoliator. My skin care routine wouldn't be complete without an exfoliator I think they are a must even if you only use one once a week as I know some of them can be quite harsh on the skin, I  just don't think you can beat the feeling of your skin after a little exfoliation :) Now for as long as I can remember I have been using Soap and Glory's Scrub Your Nose In It but guess what...they have stopped selling it, what the helllllllll???? I think they have brought out a new formula but I cant seem to find it anywhere so when I saw this I was quite keen to give it a go. It has a delish peachy scent and is really fine grained and foams when you apply it,  the product is gentle enough to use everyday which I do, After I have used the oil to remove my make up I then use this just to remove any dead skin and whatever else is lurking. This leaves the skin feeling lovely and soft it also doesn't leave any tightness which sometimes you get with face washes. Again this is another winner in my eyes and I will more than likely repurchase this again.

Have you tried any products from the skin perfection range? Let me know your thoughts? What are your holy grail skin Products? Thanks for reading as always lovelies loads of love.

My Trip To The Crown Brush Warehouse//Haul ♥


Hello Lovelies. 
Today's post is all about my little trip to the Crown Brush warehouse. When I received an Email telling me that Crown Brush were opening their warehouse for one day I just knew I had to go. I absolutely love their products I think they are amazing and such Fab value, I own quite a few of their brushes and they are just amazing, I also own the '10 Concealer Palette' and the 'Smoke It Out Palette' both of which I use everyday without fail, amazing products I will link the website below if you fancy checking them out  :) Anyway so when I heard about this opening I thought to my self "oh any money the warehouse will be hours away from where I live" I never have any luck lol, howeverrrrrr I discovered it was 30 minutes from me wahooooooooooo just straight down the M25 AMAZING!! I was so excited as you can only order online and this was an opportunity to have a proper look and feel of all the brushes, swatch the palettes and check out all the other accessories. I literally wanted everything I was so over whelmed There was just SOOO much stuff I didn't know where to start it was liked I had died and gone to make-Up Brush heaven, I also Met Karla Powell which I am so chuffed about she is an insane make-up artist and such an inspiration to me so that made my day!! I also Met this little cutie if you follow Crown Brush on Twitter or Instagram you will know who this is....


Such a cutie!!!!!

Anyway so on to what I brought I cant believe I was so controlled I wanted everything!!


C143 DELUXE SOFT FAN: I don't own a fan brush and I have been after one for ages so decided to pick one up this brush is so soft like SOOOO soft.


C108 FLAT BRONZER: I loved the look and feel of this brush I think I will personally use it as a kind of buffing brush for my Foundation the hairs are really nice and compact and really soft so I think it will do a good job of applying a foundation.


POWDER BRUSH: I couldn't resist this one it was so beautifully soft and will be amazing for powder applications.


BLUSH BRUSH: As much as I love my Real Techniques Blush Brush I sometimes find I can get a bit blusher happy and it's not until I get outside Im like niceeeeee I have a pink face hahaaa so with this little beauty I will have a much more controlled application of my blusher.


 Last up we have the 10 Blusher Palette how amazing is this, just look at those beautiful colours and so versatile, you have all the colours you could ever need within this palette, colours to suit any mood on any day. I will most definitely review this palette in full as its just so gorgeous!!!

Crown Brush were giving everyone who came down 20% off which is amazing as their products are so well priced anyway so with my discount I only ended up spending £45 I had that moment when I was like ohh shall I go back and get more, but now I have studied all the products in detail I can just order online knowing what they will be like. It was such a good day all the staff were really lovely and gave one on one if you needed any help picking bits or advice on any products, If they hold one again which I really hope they do I couldn't recommend enough that you go along (if you live within sensible distance of course) It an amazing opportunity. you can click here for the link to their website check it out as it really is amazing I can't Explain how good the products are.

Thanks for reading as always dolls, please leave me your comments and questions I love hearing from you and I always Reply to them :)

Models Own & BarryM Beauties // Im In Love ♥

Hello Lovelies.
Now Im quite a nail polish addict I love the stuff, I even have a whole space in my wardrobe dedicated to my rather large collection, I don't wear half of them admittedly but I just like to know I own them haha! I like all brands of nail polish my most owned brands are Models Own and BarryM in which I own most of the colours on the market..oops. However I had not brought any nail polish for a while until...... I SAW THESE ABSOLUTE BEAUTS!!!!!!! I will start with my Models Own Purchases, I was walking through boots towards the exit actually and these polishes literally shouted my name. The second I saw them I just had to have them, I am actually in love with them. They are the most amazing Glitters I have ever seen. Ever. 





Just look at them *love heart eyes*, and how perfectly named are they also 'Pink Paradise' and 'Mermaid Tears'. These 2 nail polishes are from the Models Own Splash collection and I don't think they could be any more perfectly suited to that collection if they tried. Both Pink Paradise and Mermaid Tears contain chunky foil iridescent glitter pieces Which I love. Mermaid Tears has a lovely purple base colour and the large chunks of foil glitter which when mixed with that purple base colour appear a gorgeous bluey Green. Pink Paradise has a bright pink base colour but also has a base glitter within as well as the foil glitter so this appears a lot more sparkly to the eye. Both shades are designed to be worn above another colour as when worn on nails alone they don't have a huge colour pay off, they are both extremely versatile in which colours they can be worn above. Like most chunky glitters you have to have a dig around the pot to get a good amount of glitter on the brush, I find on average three dabs of this is about enough. 

Next we have the BarryM beauty I spotted, I don't know how I haven't seen this sooner as the colour is just gorgeous. 




This colour is just so beautiful, It reminds me of the Packaging you get from Tiffany&Co so so soooo pretty. It is part of the BarryM Gelly Hi-Shine collection which is meant to mimic a gel manicure when dried which I believe it does not only to the eye with its incredible shine but also to the touch. This is the colour 'Greenberry'. It makes a perfect spring/summer shade what with it's amazing brightness but I can safely say I think I will be Sporting this colour all year round It will Brighten up any outfit on any day :). The Gelly Hi-Shine polishes retail at 3.99 and the Models Own retail at £5 each however Boots were doing 2 for £8 Last weekend so keep an eye out for any future deals. 

Heres some Swatches of all 3 polishes Sorry about the rubbish quality The picture DOES NOT do these colours the justice they deserve and I was Struggling to capture the glitter's. From left inwards we have 'Greenberry', 'Mermaid Tears' and 'Pink Punch'. 



I hope you enjoyed my post thank you for reading, have you tried any of these polishes? What did you think? Whats your favourite nail brand? Please leave me your thoughts or questions I always read and reply to every comment I receive. 

Loads of love x
