Feb: Used, Abused And Reviewed.

Another month is almost over, this year is flying by already! Heres what I've used up this month though I did bin a few empties without thinking and now cant remember what they were.

Liz Earle Orange Flower Botanical Body Wash. 200ml £11.25: I bought this as a trio last year and still have a full bottle left. This body wash just seems to go on and on and on..... It's SLS/SLES free but foams up brilliantly when used with a scrunchie. Theres not really all that much to say about a body wash really.. It does the job but is expensive.
Would I repurchase? Probably not but only because I dont want to spend over £11 for a shower gel.

Nails Inc Kensington Caviar Top Coat. £12: I think you all know how much I love this top coat by now. You can read my review here.
Would I repurchase? Yes

Betty Hula Body Moisturiser samples in Champagne & Spice and Rum & Blackcurrant*: My full review is here.
Would I repurchase? Yes, Rum & Blackcurrant.

Phytobaume Eclat Couleur conditioner: This was a sample from one of the Feelunique beauty boxes. My hair is really long and thick so I only got three uses from it. It seemed to do a good job, conditioned my hair well but by the next day my hair felt a bit heavy and needed washed again.
Would I Repurchase? No

Dior Show Brow: Again, you can read more about it here.
Would I repurchase? Yes but its been discontinued. Booo!

Emma Hardie Moringa Cleansing Blam. Full Size 100ml, £34: I love cleansing balms and this didnt disappoint, smells gorgeous, cleanses without stripping the skin and once you add water it turns milky and is easily removed. The muslin/microfiber cloth that came with it is brilliant aswell.
Would I repurchase? Yes

Jennifer Aniston Perfume (price varies): I'm not going to say too much about this except that its a cheap dupe for one of my fave perfumes.
Would I repurchase? Already have.

Dermalogica Age Smart Renewal Lip Complex. Around £16: You can read my review here.
Would I repurchase? Yes but I wouldnt pay the full price.

Diorshow Brow | Why rediscovering your love for a forgotten product isnt always a good thing.



A good few years ago whist on the hunt for 'something to set my brows' but also add just the right amount of colour, Diorshow Brow made its way into my life. After the first use I came to the conclusion that my life would be over if I didnt go back and buy a back-up straight away, so I did. Then of course a few weeks later something new and exciting ended up in my makeup bag and I completely forgot about the Diorshow Brow back-up that I needed.



I think this only came in two colour options.. Shiny brown and shiny blonde. I'm not sure if you can see from the photo but theres really tiny flecks of shimmer running through the colour, at first it put me off a bit but once on the brows it makes them look really healthy.

Just after Christmas while making more of an effort to shop my stash I came across this back-up, unboxed and looking a bit lonely so started using it on days were I wanted my brows looking groomed but not too defined. I'm nearing the end of my tube now so went online, as you do, to repurchase but its been discontinued!


So once again I'm on the hunt. I still love and use my Benefit Brow Zings to death but its more time cosuming and not ideal when you're in a rush. What brow setting contraptions do you lot use? I have a cheapy clear mascara that I always use for my brows but its not as good as the tinted types.

Have A Little patienceeeeee.

Hello all. :]

Just a quick blog untill I get myself sorted a bit more. I've got a few new nail laquers so will be doing a blog about those soon. looking forward to wearing more of my dark shades again but I'm sure my collection of pink's wont be locked up for too long. Follow and leave comments on anything you'd like to ask me or if you have any review ideas. :]

Here's a few thing's I've been loving lately and sorry about the rubbish photos, need to get myself a decent cam but anywhoooooo....

Liz Earle Skin Tint
I NEED to buy the full size of this!

Leighton denny supermodel
I've had this colour for a good while now, i just love it! It goes with EVERYTHING and I think it would suit most skin tones.

Dior Lip Glow

I havent been in the mood for lipstick or glosses lately so decided to buy this a few weeks ago. It's a nice balm with a slight gloss, goes onto your lip's clear then changes to a subtle pink shade. I do really like it but it's not the most moisturising balm I've tried and I do feel like i need to reapply it quite alot so dont think I'd repurchase it. The packaging is gorgeous, think that's what swayed me towards buying it. I'm a package ho! :]

RevitaBrow
My brow's have been a nightmare lately!! I dont over pluck but they just seem to be falling out in random places and not growing back. This product does work BUT you need to use it religiously or you're just wasting your money. I think this costs around £80 for 3ml, not cheap but i got it half price.

Has anyone tried any of these? xo
