PRODUCT REVIEW - BODYSHOP CLAY AND TEA TREE FACE MASKS

If you know me personally, you will know that when it comes to face masks, I just don't have the patience or time for them. But when my skin is at it's worst I like to think I can spare some time for these two maks.


They are both from the Body Shop (Seriously guys, you need to go! They always have discounts on and their products are just fantastic right now! Better than most high-end skin care lines!) 

The first mask is the Tea Tree face mask, this smells like tea tree and the smell lingers. Not a problem for me, but for those with sensitive noses, beware. The texture is quite light and creamy and applies well all over the face. You leave it on for 10-15 mins, then wash off with a damp cloth. This mask doesn't dry on the skin, it stays wet so try not to get your hair in your face! I really like this mask, it helps with spots and blemishes and also cools the skin down.


Next is the Seaweed Ionic Clay mask. This mask again has a smell to it, like the tea tree one. This purifys the skin, and dos a great job at it. The texture is slightly rougher than the tea tree one, and applies less easily, but this is the clay part of the mask and is to be expected. The mask itself drys on the skin, so your skin becomes taunt. I don't love drying masks but the final result is worth it. Your skin feels deep cleaned and soft. 


I would recommend both of these masks to anyone looking for a quick mask to help with problem skin or just for a pick me up!

PRODUCT REVIEW - BY TERRY OMBRE BLACKSTAR MISTY ROCK AND BRONZE MOON (UPDATED)

Image
If you saw my previous blog post on the By Terry Ombre Blackstar eyeshadows you would see that I wanted to originally get 'Misty Rock' and 'Bronze Moon' however when I went on Space NK, they were out of stock (cries!) however I did get them a few weeks back and I said I would do swatches, sorry they are so late but it's better than never! So here they are... (Bronze Moon on the left and Misty Rock on the right) These are super pigmented and very shimmery and simply look gorgeous on!  I have never know another eye product to last so long, even swatching them on my hand it took a good scrub to get the product off! These retail at £28, not cheap but so worth the money in my opinion!  In terms of colour Bronze Moon is a almost a bronze/gold/brown shade and Misty Rock is a pinky/mauve colour. Both utterly stunning and really make the eyes pop when you wear the colour on your lids. You can either do a quick swipe and go or you can really layer on the prod

PRODUCT REVIEW - MAX FACTOR COLOUR ELIXIR LIP LINERS

Image
These have become my favourite drug store lip liners! Max Factor has come out with a pretty great shade range from nudes to pinks to browns to reds! Horaay! I have found these last a good 5 hours plus and the don't dry your lips out like some liners can...These are easily sharpened and last a long while (ie. use) My favourite colour is Pink Petal, which is a nudey pink, like a 'your lips but better' colour (It looks completely a different colour in these photos by the way!) I have also found that Red Rush last ages and doesn't bleed and it matches most of my red lipsticks (winner!) I would say that these aren't the cheapest drug store lip liners, retailing at £4.99. The texture of these it great, they are quite creamy and sit on the lips very comfortably and the pigmentation of these are very good. At some reviews I have looked at said they loved the product but when comes to sharpening it, it breaks...this has not been an issue for me personally, so make sure yo

PRODUCT REVIEW - KEVYN AUCOIN EXPERT LIP COLOURS IN SIREEDAN, ROSERIN AND MICAVEL

Image
After reading a few posts about the Kevyn Aucoin lipsticks I decided to bite the bullet (anyone else get the lipstick pun there?!)  After looking through the variety of colours on offer I couldn't choose between three so typically got them all! ...More swatches for you guys! The first one I really wanted was so different in colour from my usual pink/coral/orange lipsticks. But after seeing a picture on the Internet a girl wearing it, it just looked so damn good! Queue ROSERIN - Described on the packaging as a 'plum rose'. A very apt description I would say.  Up next is SIREEDAN - described as a 'peachy nude', again bang on with the description. This is a perfect lipstick for day to day wear as it's that 'your lips but better' colour. And lastly, but definitely not least, is MICAVEL - a 'creamy coral'. So true, this is a very light coral/apricot colour and is great if your getting into oranges or corals. This is a very good colour to star
