Pro Blo Group MaskMe Hydrating Hair Mask
I like hair masks and use them at least once a month.  This left my hair feeling soft and bouncy even though I left my hair to dry naturally.  It didn’t feel dry or oily after a few days which some masks have done in the past.






Sand & Sky Australian Pink Clay Flash Perfection Exfoliating Treatment

This is perfect for oily skin and suffer from blackheads and whiteheads.  Ingredients such as Macadamia and Bamboo will remove the dead skin cells from the surface and fruit acids will clear pores of oily debris.  Leaving skin smooth and soft.




Arrow Enhance Waterproof Eyeliner & Brightener

I like the idea of and eyeliner and brightener in one pencil, but I didn’t like how they both applied when I used them.  The liner is waterproof, but it didn’t stay on my eyes, it smudged and the brightener for me was too bright for me it looked more white than pearly pink.




Benefit Box O’Powder in Gold Rush

What can I say about this product – it is amazing the colour looks natural and the gold particles provide a natural iridescence to the skin.  This has become my go to blusher for every day wear.  It works brilliantly with Hoola.  Can also be worn on the eyes as a shadow for a natural look.




Eyeko Brow Liner

This is a liquid liner which I feel is better for eyeliner rather than eyebrows – maybe because I am a Benefit Eyebrow product fan, and nothing compares to them.  I felt it was a little too dark and more for those who like “instabrow”.






Marcelle City 24H Anti-Pollution Day & Night Moisturising Emulsion
To me the sample size I was given meant I could only use it for two days.  Maybe I was putting on too much, my skin easily absorbed it.  It is a lovely lightweight lotion which provides protection against different types of city pollution.  I didn’t feel that it provided me with 24 hour hydration which it claims.

Sukin Micellar Cleansing Water

Bottle of Sukin Micellar Cleansing Water My hubby and I have been using Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water, he had read an article in a newspaper and wanted to try it.  This has a fresh smell and both of us like it.  It cleanses the skin well and copes brilliantly with Benefit Roller Lash, it removes it without much rubbing.  I would hold the cotton pad to my eye for a few seconds before gently swiping it away.  There is no residue or stickiness, the fragrance doesn’t last long on the skin once the water is swiped over the skin.  We use both sides of the cotton pad remembering to wipe behind our ears.  Think we will be buying more of it and other products from their range.

Fenty Beauty Icon Semi Matte Lipstick

These are sample sizes which are generous in size.  They are a semi-matte lipstick and smell delicious of cocoa. They are very pigmented which means that they can be applied straight from the bullet, with a brush or with your fingers depending on the look you want to create.  They are long lasting and did not make my lips peel or feel dry.  Pose Queen – is a colour I would wear on those days that I am doing the weekly shopping in jeans etc. It great a great nude and I would wear it on my cheeks too maybe not my eyes – well that’s something to try in the future. The MVP – now this is the date or special occasion lipstick that you want to wear when you want everyone to notice you.  You want to feel powerful. Again, I might wear it on my cheeks – a small amount applied with fingers. Scholar Sista – perfect colour for the office and those Brunch dates.  It’s a shade that will go with everything and make you feel polished, professional.

Bottle of Bleach London Fade to Grey Shampoo Who for: Anyone who wants to maintain their grey hair colour First impressions: Scary colour for a shampoo After one week: Hair is softer and looks greyer than without After one month: To be updated Stockists: Bleach London, Boots, Superdrug, Cult Beauty, LookFantastic I want to improve the salt and pepperiness of my hair.  Well I would like to dye to grey but hubby won’t let me, and this is the nearest I can get to improving the greyness of my hair.  One piece of advice wash your hands after using the shampoo as it has stained my nails – not that I mind I want grey nails too.  The colour of the shampoo is a dark grey violet and is thick and unctuous.  I was a little worried as a patch of my hair seemed not to like it as it became thick and stiff.  But when I washed my hair and applied the second lot of shampoo, my hair became soft and nourished.  The way my hair feels after two washes of my hair with the shamp
