MUA BB Cream

I have been wanting to try this BB cream since is came out but as usual my local Superdrug never stocks new MUA products so when I went in and saw that they had all of the new stuff in  it was the first thing i grabbed


The first this I noticed when I used the BB Cream was the texture it is a lot thicker than other BB Creams I have tried and the lightest shade is a perfect match for me the next thing I noticed is it has a really good coverage and it's only £4 the only problem I found with it is that for me it doesn't apply that well with a brush because it is a thicker formula it needs the heat of your fingers to blend properly and a little goes a long way when using your fingers but I mean that isn't that much of a problem is it


This is what it looks like on my face i have no concealer on just the BB cream also i burnt my head the other day and after applying it on the burn area i can hardly see it it really covers redness 


The only problem is that since using the peaches and clean cleansing milk my skin is really good and i don't really need that much coverage so once i have applied the product and blended with my fingers i use a beauty blender just to sheer it out a little bit.




My New Holy Grail Cleanser

For me one cleanser is the same as the next I have never found one that clears my skin Without drying it until now, I really cannot believe that I haven't bought this product before as I LOVE the brand.

SOAP AND GLORY PEACHES AND CLEAN


This cleanser is amazing I could see a major improvement in my skin after only 2 days, it has made my skin brighter smoother and best of all 99% of my blemishes have gone ( they have been permanent fixtures on my face for over 5 months and wouldn't budge).

In the past few days I have stopped wearing heavy foundation I have found that I only need a little bit of concealer under my eyes and maybe a bb cream.

When I first used peaches and clean I wasn't that keen on it being a cleansing milk I'm used to cleansers foaming when applying it to my skin, on the bottle it tells you to apply a little extra to and spots or problem areas I leave it on for a few minutes then wipe away with a cloth then pat my face dry it doesn't leave it feeling tight or dry i do this twice a day.

Before using this I was using 3 different things on my face to try and clear the blemishes and now i only use peaches and clean and will do for the foreseeable future. This product for me is perfect i definitely recommend that you try this cleanser I'm going to buy 3 more while soap and glory is on 3 for 2 I don't want to be running out as the other half has started using it haha

Let me know what you think of peaches and clean

In my head Im thinking 'is this how sad my life is, this is the happiest I have felt in a couple of weeks and all thanks to a a cheap shop ' and then I snapped out of it because there were lots of lovely bargains to be found.

June favourites

hiya everyone, yes i know its a little early but i cannot believe i havent done a monthly favourites before im always switching up he products i use and there are always things that i love one month and neglect the next so here are all my favroites for june



No7 Cream Blush & Real Techniques Stippling Brush


I picked this blusher up about 3 weeks ago and i love everything about it, the colour is amazing and its so creamy and smooth it works realy well with my stippling brush which has been neglected since my buffing brush came along.


Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation & Real Techniques Buffing Brush


This foundation is a lovely summer foundation it feels light on the skin and blends realy nice i have found that if i use powder over the top it dosent work so well, t goes blotchy i think thts because the foundation wears off after 9 or 10 hours and its like it was never ther but with powder on top it cannot do that and it just collects into patches and sits ontop of my skin.
The Buffing brush has been a firm fave ever since i got it i love the finish it gives its just a perfect brush.



Corn Silk Loose Powder & 17 Miracle Matt foundation


On days when i feel like i need more coverage iuse these two the foundation lasts all day gives a great coverage and i keeps me matt the only thing i have fopund with this is that it dosent woprk very well being applied with a brush because it dries so quick so i have been usiong my hands and the heat from myhands helps the foundation melt better into my skin and i can work with it longer. 

Soap & Glory - Foam Call, Schwartzkopf Gliss Shampoo & Nivea Invisable Deodrant


I love Soap & Glory and i was so eager to get this when it came out its taken over from clean on me as my fave body wash it smells like pulp friction and i love it it foams into a luxsurious lather and leaves my skin feeling clean and moisturised.
This shampoo leave my hair feeling more managable i think it only cost £1 im already on my second bottle.
I hate deodrants that claimto leave no marks but they actualy do but this one dosent leave anything and it dosent smell too powdery either.



Maybeline One by One Mascara & Rimmel 60 seconds nail polish


I have loved this mascara for so long it works brilliantly on my eyelashes, the brush is the perfect size and tapered at the end to reach all those little eyelashes that most other brushes miss it gives so much volume and definition.
Im so impatient when wating for my nails to dry i always end up smudging them, this actualy dries in 60n seconds and you only need 1 coat perfect the colour is 230 Portobello Pink.


I love reading monthly favourites posts so please leave my your links to yours if you have done one

Poundland individual false eyelashes

I have never used individual false lashes before only the strip ones which I don't really like how they feel on. I got these because I can apply them as light or heavy as I want and they are only £1.


The application itself was a lot easier than I first thought I used the same glue I use for the strip ones and I also use it to glue my extensions in, I love this glue it's flexible and strong but very easy to remove. I applied each individual lash with tweezers.


I hate it when I wear lashes and my eyelids feel heavy but these feel really light and they are versatile as you can make them as thick or thin as you like.


I wanted a fluttery lash with lots of volume and it's exactly what I got I love the finished look and they lasted all day, i will defiantly be repurchasing these again.
