I was really excited to try out this product and I'm aiming to find some texturising and voluminsing products for my hair - also I've always wanted to try a salt spray. However, although impressed at first I was slightly disappointed with this.<br />
<br />
When you initially spray it on your hair, it smells really nice and fresh. Instantly, you can see soft waves forming in your hair - and by scrunching as you spray, it encourages them to form more. However, within like 1-2 hours my hair looked exactly them same, prior to using this - straight and normal. The next time I used it, I sprayed in some more and set it a bit with hairspray - but it didn't work. I wasn't expecting it to completely wave my hair, with a similar to waving hair with heat, but just wanted some texture to remain. Another issue is that it didn't last me that long, I literally used it about 5 times and the (75ml) bottle was finished.<br />
<br />
If you're prepared to keep spritzing your hair throughout the day or you only want the texture for a short period of time, I'd recommend it. However, this product is not for me - it doesn't have the longevity or lack of maintenance.<br />
<br />
Is there any texturing or volumising products you'd recommend?<br />

The hair brush that claims to painlessly detangle your hair. With it ergonomic shape; it fits into the palm of your hand comfortably to get those stubborn tangles out of your hair. Having long hair myself, I hated brushing through my hair; I hated the breakage and fly-aways it gave so just gave up and only combed it through in the shower - with conditioner! - which would takes me AGES. However, I have my eye on this brush for a while in <a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Tangle-Teezer-Pink_1000439/" target="_blank">Boots</a>, but I couldn't justify spending £11 on a hair brush. So, I had a search on ebay and found one to bid on for about £7/8 - I cant really remember.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Anyways, I'm 100% happy with the purchase and I'd highly recommend them - even at the RRP. It has different length bristles which gently detangle hair from the surface of the hair then go deeper in - if that makes sense... - the more you brush through. It does not tug on your hair at all and the bristles aren't too sharp on your scalp so it's really comfortable when brushing through.</div>

<br />
This was one of the gifts I recieved for Christmas this year and I'm really excited about it. I haven't tried many Toni&Guy products do this gift set is a great opportunity. It all comes in a white faux leather wash bag which is really handy and looks good. It comes with 4 products and some pearl hair screws - although I'm not sure if i'll actually every use them.<br />
<br />
The first product (blue bottle) is a 75ml bottle of <a href="http://store.toniandguy.com/product/20/toniandguy-casual-sea-salt-texturising-spray" target="_blank">Casual Sea Salt Texturising Spray</a> which I'm excited about trying. I've recently been on the look out for products that will give my long straight locks some texture and movement. (I'm also planning to do a DIY post on making your own sea salt hair spray)<br />
<br />
There's a 75ml can of <a href="http://store.toniandguy.com/product/29/toniandguy-glamour-firm-hold-hairspray" target="_blank">Firm Hold Hairspray</a> which I'm not too fussed about; a small can is always handy to throw into your handbag though.<br />
<br />
This <a href="http://store.toniandguy.com/product/19/toniandguy-leave-in-conditioner-manageability-and-frizz-control" target="_blank">Leave In Conditioner</a> is also something which I'd like to try as only recently, I've been trying out leave in products that tame your hair after your washed it.<br />
<br />
And lastly is a 250ml bottle (which I believe is a full size) of <a href="http://store.toniandguy.com/product/8/toniandguy-cleanse-shampoo-for-advanced-detox" target="_blank">Shampoo for Advanced Detox</a>. I've never heard of a product like this, and it says its for occasional use. I'm interested to see if this makes a good change to my hair after a build up of products.<br />
<br />
I'm really excited to try these products and give them a bit of a trial. Keep an out of for reviews of these individual products coming up on my blog soon.<br />

The new year is upon us and the most common new years resolution is; "I'm gonna lose weight this year". With that in mind I thought it fitting to show you what I usually bring to the gym. You dont have to take the same stuff, this is just an idea - also I don't always take all of this stuff, sometimes I go lighter. </div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
1. A <b>sports bra</b> is vital for us girls, it will just give you that extra support and comfort - especially if you are doing high impact exercise. There's various types to suit your size and intensity of your workout, the one in the image is linked <a href="http://www.jdsports.co.uk/product/nike-shape-bra/35153/" target="_blank">here</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
2. I usually opt for a mens T-shirt as I like a loose fitting top as I find it more comfortable to work out in.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
3. I prefer sport leggings over tracksuit bottoms as they're less restricting and keep you cooler if you buy ones that have some sort of drying or cooling technology like Nike's "Dri-Fit".</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
4. Slazenger sports socks from <a href="http://sportsdirect.com/">sportsdirect.com</a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
5. Trainers: My new <a href="http://www.jdsports.co.uk/product/nike-free-run-3/55406/" target="_blank">Nike Free Run 3 Junior</a> which I got in the sales. Luckily enough I still fit into junior sizes which go up to size 5.5 so I saved myself some more money.<br />

This is my 'go to' look. Having the 'no make up' make up look is perfect for a casual, normal day and makes you look more fresh faced. Although it is pretty ironic how this 'no make up' look consists of various products.<br />

Even though I think I've found my perfect concealer - which actually is not this one - I'm always on the look out for anything that does even better than my current favorite one. Although I have to say, this is a decent product.<br />
<br />
This is quite a light, creamy consistency and blends in really easily to your skin. It claims to "reawaken and illuminate" under the eyes, which I think does this by its 'illuminating pigments' - ie, tiny, miniscule bits of glitter. However, they are barely visible and therefore do not need to worry about the "Edward Cullen Effect" on your face. The shimmery-ness of this is much less than the Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation - review coming soon - even though thats not that bad either. But I would suggest using this product if you are going to be somewhere with flash photography otherwise you'd probably get a slight white cast where you've applied it.<br />
<br />
It claims to be "full coverage" but I would say it's more light to medium. It can cover up minor skin blemishes but cant really disguise dark under eye circles - although you could probably use a corrector then put this over the top to blend into your skin more. This would be perfect for people who have almost perfect skin with the need to cover up minor blemishes, not much of a heavy cover up.<br />
<br />
I'm quite shocked at the colour range of this product as it only comes in 4 shades - which to be honest have slight differences in tone, and it doesn't really cater to medium to darker skin tones. Considering Rimmel is a UK brand, it's not really representative of the population.<br />
<br />
Overall, I'd say this is a decent product with a decent price. However, it's not something that i'd reach for regularly or purchase again. If you want to give it a go - it might work for you - it's widely available in places like Boots/Superdrug and probably at Rimmel stands in supermarkets. (Click <a href="http://rimmel.rimmellondon.com/products/wake-me-concealer-0" target="_blank">here</a> for a look at the product on their website.)<br />

But in my opinion, as long as you keep it natural and suitable for school I don't see the problem. So I had a rummage in my make up collection and pulled out a few things that I think would be good for school make up.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1. <a href="http://www.maybelline.com/Products/Eye-Makeup/Mascara/Volum-Express-The-Colossal-Washable-Mascara.aspx" target="_blank">The Colossal Volum' Express</a> (£7.19)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It's a really inexpensive but effective mascara. The colour is very black and not dry so you can build coats up depending on your eyelash preference - natural or build up for a more dramatic look.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2. <a href="http://www.collectioncosmetics.co.uk/face/concealer/lasting-perfection-concealer.aspx" target="_blank">Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer</a> (£4.19) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
(Previously branded as Collection 2000) This is an amazing concealer, full stop. It could easily rival higher end concealers. It's a lovely creamy formula which is suitable to cover blemishes as well as dark circles. If you don't like wearing foundation, you could just dab this on your blemishes on it's own as it has such great coverage. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
3. <a href="http://www.eyeslipsface.co.uk/product~prodID~136.htm" target="_blank">Elf Studio Powder Brush</a> (£3.75)<br />
If you wear foundation to school, this is a great brush to apply both liquid or powder formulas. The bristles are really soft and dense and is a great quality brush - especially for the price!<br />
<br />
4. <a href="http://www.bourjois.co.uk/catalog/make_up/complexion/foundation/healthy_mix_foundation" target="_blank">Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation</a> (£9.99)<br />
Not as inexpensive but 100% worth it. It has a lovely formula which is really easy to blend in to your skin, doesn't feel to heavy, has a dewy finish and is long lasting. It also isn't as bad as other foundation for your skins as it contains fruit extracts.<br />
<br />
4. <a href="http://rimmel.rimmellondon.com/products/stay-matte-pressed-powder" target="_blank">Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder</a> (£3.99)<br />
If you have oily skin or just like a matt finish this is great powder for ridding of shine. You can either get it in your preferred shade or translucent. It also makes you skin look great.<br />
<br />
5. <a href="http://www.eyeslipsface.co.uk/product~prodID~121.htm" target="_blank">Elf Eyebrow Kit</a> (£3.75)<br />
Filling in your eyebrows isn't a necessity for all people but I personally prefer it. This kit contains a powder a wax and a mini brush and is good for such an affordable price.<br />
<br />
6.<a href="http://www.rimmellondon.com/us/en/products/soft-kohl-kajal-eye-liner-pencil/" target="_blank">Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eyeliner</a> (£2.99)<br />
Eyeliner to many people is an introduction to make up. This is a great, afforable product. It's creamy and a jet black colour suitable for anyone who can't go without kohl liner.<br />
<br />
7. <a href="http://www.rimmellondon.com/us/en/products/lasting-finish-kate-moss/" target="_blank">Rimmel Lasting Finish by Kate Moss, Shade 08</a> (£5.49)<br />
I personally wouldn't wear lipstick if I was still in high school, but I know some people do. If you do, this is a lovely subtle colour for school, it's a bit of a rosy, dusty pink - a kind of 'my lips but better' shade. The formula is also really nourishing and creamy.<br />
However, if you don't like wearing lipstick you could always opt for a normal lip balm or a tinted one.<br />
<br />
I'm not saying that you should wear all of this stuff, but these are the types of products that you could wear. There're easily and widely available in stores like Boots or Superdrug and even supermarkets, all apart from the Elf products which are only available on their website (just click on the product link I left), and are all pretty inexpensive.<br />
<br />

It's a tiny bit late, but not by much. I thought this would be the perfect post for me to get back into the swing of blogging again.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Last month my favourites consisted of new products I tried and some I rediscovered in my storage and just decided to use again - and have wondered why I ever abandoned them!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiagwQiQQQJrAltjrlNEIBOm0ZalgFli5LIaLBau_vnlL6ndGU-oe-pr04wGL0pOw41qFTr-F8i7skZIGRqj76STX4KHcUYkbYjEHjdpSGZarl-Nh1QIjZX1iFHlFi2Fx1LT7XD4G1zWj4_/s1600/P9020893.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiagwQiQQQJrAltjrlNEIBOm0ZalgFli5LIaLBau_vnlL6ndGU-oe-pr04wGL0pOw41qFTr-F8i7skZIGRqj76STX4KHcUYkbYjEHjdpSGZarl-Nh1QIjZX1iFHlFi2Fx1LT7XD4G1zWj4_/s640/P9020893.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
1. <a href="http://www.garnier.co.uk/_en/_gb/our_products/product.aspx?tpcode=OUR_PRODUCTS%5EPRD_SKINCARE%5EOILY_SKIN%5EOILY_SKIN_DISCOVER%5EOILY_SKIN_RTN1&prdcode=P10017" target="_blank">Garnier Pure 3 in 1 Wash + Scrub + Mask</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I bought this face scrub a while ago and literally just forgot about it but I started using it again. I really like it - it manages to get daily grime and make up off your face and leaves it smooth, mattified and clean. I mainly just use it as a scrub because the wash and scrub purpose is practically the same and the mask kind of changes to a scub/wash when you wash it off anyways... But I really like it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
2. <a href="http://rimmel.rimmellondon.com/products/wake-me-foundation?gclid=CPiF4bbulrICFUQLfAodNyEANA" target="_blank">Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
There's quite a hype about this foundation - and I totally understand why. The reason why its my favorite for August is because it's so easy to blend into my skin especially due to the colour which is pretty much an exact match for me (I wear 200 Soft beige), it gives a lovely glowy/dewey finish and it also contains spf 15 which it good for the summer months although this summer hasn't really been that summery/sunny...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
3.<a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Botanics-100-Organic-Rosewater-Toning-Spritz-150ml_1262007/" target="_blank">Boots Botanics Rosewater Toning Spritz</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I bought this on offer at boots - which I still think is running - and I love this! After cleansing, it really rehydrates and cools my skin back down. It smells so nice - like rosewater -aswell and spritzing it on my face is so refreshing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
4.<a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Natural-Collection-Vanilla-Body-Spray_46418/" target="_blank">Natural Collection Vanilla Body Spra</a>y</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
(This is on offer for 3 for 2 at boots) I don't usually like smelling OF a specific scent but this is an exemption - vanilla is such a classic scent and just smells really nice. It's really affordable at £2 each so it's perfect for me to throw into my bag and spritz throughout the day or taking to the gym after a good workout.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
5. <a href="http://www.revlon.co.uk/Revlon-Home/Products/Eyes/Eye-Shadow/Revlon-Matte-Eyeshadow.aspx" target="_blank">Revon Matte Eye Shadow</a> - Shade, Rich Sable</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This is the perfect shade for me to fill in any gaps in my eye brows. It's lovely smooth texture and has good pigmentation. It's also great for a neutral eye look.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

<br />
This year has just been quite a tough one, like I'm sure what happens to many other people in their lives for certain amounts of time... But I'm happy to say I'm back! And I'll be blogging and posting more often, I also want to have a little blog revamp which will be coming soon.<br />
<br />
Leading off from the latter comment; the content of my blog will remain the same - with reviews on beauty products and such - but I'm considering to include some fashion posts as well as lifestyle, so overall it will be a bit of a beauty and lifestyle blog. This will hopefully mean I'll have much better content for you guys who enjoy reading it.<br />
<br />
So, I thought I'd update you on a couple of things...<br />
1. I'm going to blog and interact on here more. :)<br />
2. My laptop is very temperamental right now so please forgive me if I do go AWOL on here at times.<br />
3. I GOT AN IPHONE!! :D<br />
4. I'm happy with my AS level results so I'm going into year 13 for my last year at sixth form<br />
<br />
Plus other stuff... :P<br />
<br />
Please accept my apology for being gone so long. I hope your doing well<br />
<br />

I actually really like e.l.f stuff; there's such a varity of products - although some I'd never buy - and they're very good value for money - most of the products being mostly under £4! So I decided to go ahead with my 2nd order as there was a free delivery code sent out in an email: I'd really recommend signing up to their newsletters as there's an offer more or less every week. So I got:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
*2 Blending Eye Brushes - £1.50 each</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
*Defining Eye Brush - £1.50</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
*Eyeliner Brush - £1.50</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
*Gloss Lash & Brow Clear Mascara - £1.50</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
*Matte Lip Colour in Coral (as I saw on <a href="http://www.etcllymlrs.com/2012/03/elf-studio-matte-lip-colour-in-coral.html?spref=bl" target="_blank">ETCLLMLRS</a>' blog, I was debating what colour to get) - £3.50</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So all in all I spent only £11 with free P+P for 6 products that I'm all pretty happy about :D</div>

I've been considering dry shampoo as an essential just to touch up on those days when my hair's a bit lack luster on the 2nd sometimes 3rd day hair. Batiste is the "go to" brand for dry shampoo, but I've been looking for alternatives as - for me - Batiste isn't too worth it, a can doesn't last me too long. So when I saw this in Superdrug on offer for 99p, I thought I'd just give it ago.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This one's the Chocolate Brownie one and it's coloured brown to suite brunettes so I thought it would be idea. However, I was wrong. Im just going to say it - this is an awful product... So you spray it in and it makes your hair feel cold - but this is quite normal - then expecting it to settle and leave the residue, however it makes your hair just feel wet and sticky... I've tried rubbing and working it in with my fingers but a brown powdery residue came off into my hands and it made no difference to my hair. I looked at my hair in the mirror and it looked worse than before I sprayed it in - even more greasy looking and it felt so horrible...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I thought this could just be a one off so I tried it a few more times and the same thing happened. The only nice thing about it was the smell which is quite okay...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I would never buy it again and wouldn't recommend it... The only other decent alternative to Batiste is <a href="http://rahrose.blogspot.com/2011/08/girlz-only-dry-shampoo.html" target="_blank">this one (my review here)</a>.</div>

Just a quick post... I've been buying magazines quite a bit lately; I dont really know why... But I decided to buy Glamour Magazine the other week - it was the one with Reece Witherspoon on the front. When I was flicking through it at home; there were like 3 free samples in it and they were actually decent products.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I'm not going to go into tones of detail - it would be quite a boring post. But I'm quite excited to try the Chanel foundation and I hope its a good match, the sample is in the shade '30 Beige'. But the Rimmel foundation I really like; I think I'm going to purchase it and the match for me was spot on, it was in '200' I cant remember the name though :S And the whole sachet lasted me a whole week! So there is quite a decent amount in there - well for me anyway... And the other thing is a face wash/mask thing which to be honest I'm in no hurry to try...</div>

I don't buy magazines that regularly, so when I walk past the magazine bit in Tesco or something and there's a front cover that looks interesting or a good freebie; I buy it. This time for me; it's the <a href="http://www.cosmopolitan.co.uk/" target="_blank">Cosmopolitan</a> magazine, with the lovely and beautiful Holly Willoughby on the cover.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I got this magazine because of the TWO, FREE mini <a href="http://www.clinique.co.uk/cms/product/supercat/offers_award_kiss_of_colour.tmpl?77tadunit=e96f9bf6&77tadvert=12175341900&77tkeyword=clinique&77tentrytype=s&77tentry=Lipduo_2702_brand_headline&cm_mmc=google-_-search-_-brand-_-clinique&gclid=CIuz6IT3yK4CFSMLtAodQ3w0Bg" target="_blank">CLINIQUE</a> products. I was like; "Yes please!"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I really like mascara so I picked the one with that in and for the other product I didn't really mind, but I didn't really want the lip gloss as I'm not much of a fan. So I got a mini High Impact Mascara and Moisture Surge (cream/gel). The other two products available are a mini 7 day Exfoliare Scrub and a Super Moisturising Lip Gloss. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
What every product you prefer, it's well worth it. The magazine is only £3.50.</div>

I arranged other pictures onto a page but the quality has slightly decreased but it's still okay... I finished college early today so I thought I'd do a bit of shopping whilst it was still quiet. I mainly went to get my friends birthday present but as always, came back with other stuff. I'm so happy withe the stuff I got from Superdrug, the Revlon eye shadow palettes were only £4.99 each but normally they're £7.99 - I couldn't resist so I got two. The Lovehearts also I got for free - the lovely guy at the till gave them to me. And lastly, I needed to pop into Tesco for some food but also decided to get Cosmopolitan Magazine as you get two free Clinique products!</div>

I've bought a few ELLE magazines in the past, but now I'm that little bit older I appreciate them much more - with the articles that actually relate to me and the stunning editorial pictures in them... I think from now on, I'm going to continue buying them when I have that few extra "bob" to spend...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
But what made my buy this issue was the free gift; which is the Soap and Glory, Thick and Fast mascara. I've ben wanting to try out some of the Soap and Glory cosmetics and thought why not? ...As this mascara is worth £10, but buying the magazine, you get it for £3.90, plus the magazine which is pretty good.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So why not run down to the news-agents or supermarket and grab the March edition while you can :D And a reveiw on this mascara will be on it's way soon.</div>

I was looking round in Superdrug for a new face was thing and came across this. It's the Superdrugs own brand. It's a hot cloth cleanser - the same kinda thing to Liz Earles Cleanse and Polish, but this is much much cheaper. On first impressions I really liked it - it made my skin feel really fresh and clean after. But after using it for a while now, I love it even more!</div>
<br />
It's in a big squeezy tube which I like as it's practical and you can get most of the product out when it's running out. The product it's self is a white, smooth, thick, creamy liquid - it's like a kind of like a body butter consistency but obviously comes in the tube. So you apply it all over your face, and it doesn't drip anywhere. After you use the muslin cloth that's included, which is nice and soft. It's really simple to use. It has a kind of fruity or something or other smell - I think it's a little coconuty with some other kind of smell - I cant quite put my finger on it...<br />
<br />
Afterwards, it makes your skin feel so soft and clean and easily removes make up. After a few weeks of using it, I noticed that my skin was much clearer. It has vitamin E in it too which is also good for your skin. Overall, I really love this product and would definitely buy it again. I got it in when it was on offer for only £2.99 but it's usually £5.99 which is still pretty okay - just keep your eyes open for the offers.Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05678951072191121489noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6946083580576877545.post-54313942440042234452012-02-03T15:50:00.000+00:002012-02-03T19:25:49.713+00:00MUA Clear Mascara<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I thought I'd give this product a try as it was only £1 in Superdrug on the MUA stand. I wanted to try something alternative and new for my eyebrows - as recently, I've just been using my <a href="http://rahrose.blogspot.com/2011/12/elf-eyebrow-kit.html" target="_blank">elf Eyebrow Kit</a>. So I thought I'd shade in m eyebrows using an eyebrow pencil and set the hairs with this. But after a few days of using this, it shows to be quite a pathetic product to be quite honest...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Clear mascara is meant to give you a natural lash look but just longer and more separated. I tried it on my lashes to see if it worked on them, but it didn't either... I might as well have just been applying water to them... Even on my brows, it doesn't set them whatsoever. And as a matter of fact, when I pull the wand out - it looks like there's no product on there... The tube also just seems poorly made - like it's thin and flimsy, and also you have to shove the wand back in, you can't push it it lightly as it just wont go...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Yeah this was only a pound, but it could have at least done something... If your looking for a clear mascara, I wouldn't recommend this, but neither would I opt for a clear one anyway, (if you want a more natural look, just go for brown...) and neither would I recommend this for a brow gel...</div>

I've recently added contouring into my daily make-up routine, (only when I have enough time and can be bothered :P) and before I just used to use a usual bronzer. But when I saw this in Superdrug, I thought it was perfect, and had to buy it. It has two powders; a bronzer and a highlighter which are both really good.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I like the fact that even though they're decently pigmented they're subtle and so you don't have to worry too much about being heavy handed or having huge contrasting patches on your face. The bronzer has no shimmer at all - really good for contouring - and is a really nice shade - it's not orange. The highlighter is shimmery and pearlescent but it's still nice and gives a natural glow.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I really like the packaging of this. It's just nice and compact, and it's also really slick - simple. The mirror also is quite big too which is handy. Another thing I quite like is the outer box it comes in; even though the picture of the woman looks kinda lame and doesn't make it look particularly classy; (It's not the woman herself, it's the fact that she's there - the box would just look more slick if it was more simplistic) I like it because it protects the actual compact from in-store damage (scuffs, scratches, etc) and those bloody annoying Superdrug security stickers which are a nightmare to remove!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Lastly, another little thing what makes this kit really good is that it comes with a leaflet thing which has a breif and basic step by step guide to contouring. There's so many people I've seen get it wrong.. :P This makes it so much more ideal for new 'contourers'</div>

Overall, this is such a great product and is defiantly worth buying. I don't really have any major faults with it. It comes in 3 shades - light, medium and dark, (Mines in light) and is around the £6.50 mark - is really inexpensive but really worth it.</div>

These aren't exactly my style, but I think they are quite amazing. I don't know how you could walk in the pink ones and where exactly could you wear them. but I love the last ones. They are incredibly unique and so original - I do really like them.</div>

Acne and spots are just a nuisance. No one likes or wants them, so why can't they just go away? Well, this product may be your answer. I'm no doctor so I'm recommending this product to you with caution. This is a chemical gel, of which contains Benzoyl Peroxide. None of you probably want to know the sciencey stuff; so I'll just keep it simple. It's a creamy white gel and what this does - and is supposed to do - is dry out any spots or pimples you have. And it actually works, so ti gets rid of them. Use it quite sparingly as it does dry out your skin and only use it when you need to. This is not recommended for more than 2 uses a day and must be applied to clean and dry skin - so if you're applying make up - you can do so, after it's dry and it must be oil free make up. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This is my saviour, but as this is an "Over the counter" product I'd do some research into what it contains and if it's suitable. If you think this product is suitable, I'd definitely go for it and try it. It comes in 3 concentrations - 2.5% (Which I use and would say that's all you need if your using it for occasional spots/pimples), 5% and 10%. If it's your first time using it; buy the 2.5%.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This can by prescribed to you by doctors but if you want to buy it, you have to go to a chemist and ask for it over the counter and they will explain it to you abit. It's around £3 (I think) for 40g worth of product. I couldn't go without this anymore.</div>

There's quite a bit of hype around <a href="http://www.superdrug.com/mua-makeup-academy-introducing-our-new-ps1-make-up-range-exclusive/page/muamakeupacademy/" target="_blank">MUA products from Superdrug</a> due to the simple fact they're a decent quality and affordable - with loads of their products being only £1! I thought I'd try the bronzer out in Shade 3, and was thinking you can't really go wrong with it being only £1.</div>

The packaging is nicely simplistic, with it being clear plastic casing, I don't mind it - it's alright. The product it's self is kind of "half and half" with me. It's good in the fact that the shade I have (Shade 3) has no shimmer and so would be good for contouring, and I like the pigmentation with it. It's not too pigmented so it doesn't go on dark but you're still able to see it. However I find that in person, (unlike in the photo above) it comes out slightly kind of like terracotta colour (and it has a kind of red-ish tinge). I probably would have been happy if I had a different shade - but this bronzer only comes in 3 shades; and 2 of which have shimmer which I'm not a fan of.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Overall, I'm not really going to be using this product just because of the colour tinge I don't really like with it. But as everyone's skin tones are different; it might not be the same on all skins. Everything else about this product is actually really good though. I'd say, if your debating or thinking to buy it - just go for it, it's only £1.</div>

I recently got into grooming my eyebrows more, and wanted something other than a pencil because I'm not a fan of the effect it gives as it very defined and too sharp, I thought this would be a good solution. At first I really liked this product. The brow wax (on the left of the image) is pigmented however it doesn't really keep the brow hairs in place during the daily "norm" activities, it does make the powder stick more to your brows. The powder is again pigmented so overall, it does give your eyebrows more definition and fills in any gaps, which is good.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The cons of this product are firstly - the brush. It's poorly made - the fluffier end for the powder started shedding from the first time I used it and continued to until I changed the brush I used for it (I now just use a regular small angled one) and the other side for the wax just separated - the bristles grouped up, it kinda looks like a fork (and like you know if you have a full fringe/bangs and throughout the day it gets a little oily and starts to separate..) And additionally, I find it kind of a chore to use as you kinda have to take care when applying both of the parts and I always have to get rid of any outlaying product that has strayed from the outline of my brows..</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The packaging is quite nice. I like simple packaging and I just think it looks slick and professional. It reminds me of the NARS packaging, however, this one is just plastic without that rubbery, matt finish. And it also has a little handy mirror.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Overall, the product is okay. I like the concept of it and it's a great alternative way of filling in your eyebrows. It's not terrible but I wouldn't buy it again - I'm probably going to try the Sleek Eyebrow Kit next time.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It's available on the <a href="http://www.eyeslipsface.co.uk/product~prodID~121.htm">ELF Website (Here)</a> in 4 shades (light, medium, dark and ash (mines in medium)) for £3.50 as it's from the Studio range.<br />

I wanted to try this foundation for absolutely ages and when Superdrug had the 3 for 2 offer, it was the perfect excuse to buy it. (And appoligies for the ugly barcode label on it - it's those annoyingly ugly security labels they have in Superdrug which are hellish to get off.) <b>So</b>, there was quite alot of hype on this foundation as most people that have it absolutely love it and it was voted product of the year in 2011; therefore I had high expectations for it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
From the very instant this nice smelling liquid made contact with my face - I loved it. The consistency of the liquid is quite thin and light - this therefore makes it really easy to apply and blend into the skin. Additionally, the colour match of this is very good - I have it in shade 53 - but it's available in 8 shades - 51 to 58, so those of you who are darker skinned may not find your perfect shade. The foundation has all of these fruit ingredients claiming to boost radiance and give you a perfectly glowing complexion. Yeah, it evens out your skin and gives you a little glow as it has quite a dewy finish, but it's not one of those which gives you a shiny face. And due to the fact it has those fruit extracts - it does have quite a scent - like apricots - so those of you that don't like scented stuff - I probably wouldn't recommend this for you. The only thing I don't really like about the foundation is the packaging. Becuase it's plastic, it just feels so light and cheap, and that there's no product in there. But really, it's the product inside that really matters.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This is available on Bourjois counters, Superdrug, Boots, etc for around £9.99. <b>Overall, </b>this is one of my favourite foundations I have tried and will definitely be a repurchase. It's definitely worth the money.</div>

Happy New Year! I thought I'd do a little new years post. I've been absent from my blog in a while. I've just been super busy and stuff over the past month, much more than I thought I would be. I wish I went Central to see the New Years fireworks as seeing them on a screen in a pub in East London along with a smaller display just isn't as spectacular. I hope to go next year though.</div>

This year in all honestly has been a tough year for me but I don't want to put it all out on here as it's quite private. However, there has been some amazing things that have happened at at times, this year has been fun. I also started this blog in August. (I've actually revamped my blog recently, and for those of you who check on here regularly may have noticed) But, I didn't have an ideal year with my first year of sixth form - as the course I was doing got cancelled half way through; not down to me, so I thought the best thing for me to do was have a fresh start and opt for A levels. I'm now at a new sixth form and I am enjoying it, so thats good. The Christmas holidays are over and I am going back to sixth form tomorrow. I actually don't have a clue how I'm going to be able to get up tomorrow morning. AND, I have my first exam next week... Scary.</div>

I have no idea of how this year is going to pan out - I just like to live day by day, take everything as it comes. Sometimes I worry and think I should I think and plan more, but that's just not how I am. Also, there's that whole "Aahh, the world's going to end in 2012!!". If it is true, it;'s happening on the 21st - or something like that - of December. Which means we'll all be in the Christmas spirit and cheer... And then it all ends... BUT, I don't believe in stuff like that and I don't think it will happen...</div>

So, I think I might do the New Years resolution thing this year and I have a few things.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ol>
<li>Help more around the house - This is the year where I feel I need to grow up more and take more responsibility. I'm quite reliant on my parents, and since I turned 18 last year. I feel it's the right time.</li>
<li>Drink more water - It actually does me really good, for my skin, hair, the way I feel. So yeah..</li>
<li>I'm going to save more, I have a few expensive things in mind that I want to buy - like a new camera - and don't want to rely on my parents to get for me.</li>
<li>Blog more. When I frost started this, I blogged regularly but more recently, I've neglected it and been absent for a bit - I didn't even do any Christmas posts... Woops..</li>
</ol>
<div>
That's about it for now. And I'm glad I've done this post to start of my blog for 2012 - Ahh, we've got the Olympics coming to London this year too... </div>
