Ok, so I know I am really late to this bandwagon but I thought I would share my favourite lip products of the moment – Revlon Colourburst Lip Butters. Whist I was having a little retail therapy I, once again, found myself at the makeup section in boots and decided to pick up a few items – we all know that going in to Boots for just one item is a very difficult task for...

For my birthday my lovely friends treated me to some lovely Soap and Glory goodies – they know me so well J Amongst the collection of goodies  was Soap and Glory A Great Kisser Lip Balm in Vanilla Bean. First off, this smells incredible although I cannot actually pinpoint what it smells of – either way it smells yummy! Although I am not the greatest fan of lip balms in tins as I always worry...

Rehab They tried to make me go to rehab but I said no no no – sorry I just couldn’t resist! I brought this as I had tortured my poor hair with all the curling, straightening and styling. This is my second 500g bottle of this so I thought it was about time for a review. The viscosity of Rehab Is quite different to that of your everyday shampoo as it is quite runny so...

1.    Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeliner in Nude I never wear anything on my waterline as I don’t think it suits me. However, I love the idea of lining my waterline with nude eyeliner. Nude eyeliner is great in the waterline in order to brighten up tired looking eyes. I really like Rimmel products as they are one of my favourite drugstore brands as they are great quality and affordable too! 2. Avon Nail Experts Liquid Freeze...

    I had tried the Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer  in stick form ,before and for the price I was a little disappointed given the amount of product I got. However, it was a lovely concealer nevertheless so I chose to try out NARS' new Radiant Creamy Concealer. :)  Like their lip glosses the Nars Radiant Creamy concealer, with a doe foot applicator, comes in the beautiful packaging with the clamshell top. The consistency is really creamy and...

  Essie's Allure was the first ever Essie polish I ever used and is one of my favourite nail polishes ever. I got this one in a set along with two other red polishes for £9.99 at TK Maxx. On its own this polish usually retails for £7.99 however, if you are looking for a cheaper alternative Revlon have a great dupe. Initially, when I brought this I was a little apprehensive as in the...

1. Mac Eye Pencil in Coffee As I have said before I am not the biggest fan of eyeliner.However, I love the look of this one especially as the brown coffee shade is alot more subtle and less harsh than a typical black eyeliner.I think this will look great on the lash line slightly blended out into any eyeshadow you are wearing. 2. Rimmel Kate Moss Matte Lasting Finish Lipstick in 107 I adore the...

  Ok, so I am a little late to join the hype that surrounds the Estee Lauder Raisins Duo however, after seeing countless reviews of it and seeing how great it looked on Zoella in her everyday makeup routine I decided that I wanted to buy the Estee Lauder Raisins Duo. Sadly, after scouring the internet I soon discovered that I would not be able to get the Estee Lauder Raisins palette. It later came...

For a long time there has been a notable absence in my makeup collection – eyeliner. For some reason I could not get to grips with eyeliner. So, as a result the one eyeliner I did own was hidden away at the back of my makeup only to see the light on fancy dress occasions such as Halloween etc. However, whilst I was looking at the Soap and Glory cosmetics ,in Boots, I was intrigued...

  Sometimes, I like to buy my Essie nail polishes in sets of three for £9.99 for TKMaxx.However, on this occasion inside my trio of goodies was a nail polish without a colour! For some strange reason there wasn't any sticker on this polish to tell me the name.The only clue I do have is that on the underside of the bottle there is the number 17 embossed underneath the code H300. I love this red but...

    I would like to introduce a new series to The Daily Face and that is What's in their Makeup Bag? .I always enjoy having a look in other peoples makeup bags as I find it  really interesting to find out what products other people use. After seeing a wonderful article in an old ELLE magazine about mothers and their makeup I thought I would kick off this series with a peek into my mom’s...

  So, whilst I was shopping I got a little ,okay kinda an underestimation there, distracted by the mac counter.I originally went with the intention of getting Saddle eyeshadow as a nice crease colour, however after looking through what felt like loads of shades of brown I was told that Saddle had been discontinued. :( Anyhow,I ended up getting a paint pot in Bare Study. Bare Study is a pigmented eye colour with a very creamy...

First up is Rehab shampoo from LUSH cosmetics. As some of you may already know I am a big fan of LUSH cosmetics and their ethos. After years of curling, straightening and well, plain frazzling my poor hair I decided to start to try and help my damaged hair : enter Rehab shampoo. Rehab has been great for my hair and my split ends don't seem half as bad as before, which is always fantastic....

So, the other month I got a free sample of Benefit’s They’re Real mascara with Elle magazine. The sample size of this product usually retails for £10.80, which is great if you want to try something new. I was amazed with this mascara and the sample size was well loved, so when Debenhams had a sale I jumped at the chance to get the full sized bottle for £16.25. Although Benefit’s They’re Real is a...

Essie's Vanity Fairest is a very pale pink with tiny hints of glitter inside which gives a lovely hint of sparkle to your nails.Despite what you may think the two polishes in the picture above are actually both Vanity Fairest but they look like different shades - I have no idea why! One thing I can say is that all the Essie polishes I have tried, so far, *touch wood* have been great and don't...

If you haven’t heard of the Clarisonic before it is essentially a toothbrush for your face- in fact it was even created by the people that invented the electric toothbrush! Now, as you may know the Clarisonic isn’t the cheapest of beauty gadgets with some models ranging in price up to an eye watering £179.In addition to...

    When having a mooch around Boots – nothing unusual there then, I noticed that one of my favourite drugstore brands Bourjois was having a 3 for 2 offer so I decided to pick up a few things. Asides from the usual healthy mix serum I decided to pick up the new Colour Boost Lip Crayons in the colour Fushia Libre and Red Sunrise. The pigmentation of these is fantastic and I couldn’t be...

    Usually I like to mix things up a bit when it comes to my eye shadows however lately I have been steering towards the same palette time and time again - the urban decay naked basics palette. I picked mine up at Debenhams for only £20 - which considering that a Mac quad would set you back at almost £50 this little ,iPhone sized, palette is an absolute steal - especially considering you...
