Tube and packaging of  SugarPill High Tea Collection Liquid Lip Colour Who for: Anyone who wants a matte lip look First impressions: Smells like chocolate orange and is a mousse texture After one week: Perfect nude After one month: Lips feel comfortable Stockists: SugarPill, BeautyBay, Beautylish, Love Makeup, Cute Cosmetics, I was kindly gifted this lipstick by GlamGeek.  This is the perfect pale nude.  It smells like chocolate orange but doesn’t last long if you don’t like fragrance makeup.  The lipstick is a mousse texture which makes it easy to apply along with the triangular shaped doe foot meaning that you can use the tip to outline your lips before using the whole of the applicator to fill in, it doesn’t streak.  You can also use your fingers to apply this if you want a more subtle wash of colour to your lips.  Within seconds it is dry and doesn’t dry your lips and lasts all day.  It is smudge-proof and non-transferable.  My lips

A Tube of Lola Makeup Matte Liquid Liptick Love Collection Who for: Anyone and everyone, young and old and everyone in between First impressions: Looks perfect After one week: My lips feel and look nourished and hydrated After one month: The perfect nude that lasts all day Stockists: Lola, Indulge This was kindly gifted to me by Lola.   It is the first liquid that I have tried.   The doe foot applicator applies the right amount to the lips, giving both coverage and colour to the lips.   The shape of the doe foot applicator also helps to line the lips before filling in and creates the perfect cupid’s bow.   The liquid lipstick is not too runny or too thick, it is the right consistency to stay where it is applied.   One coat gives enough coverage and doesn’t streak.   Within a few seconds the lipstick is dry to a matte finish which is perfect for everyday wear, even if you are wearing jeans and a t-shirt.   The lipstick doesn’t transfer to cups and glasses so t

{GIFTED} Lola Nail Varnish

Bottle of Lola Makeup Nail Varnish in Orchid  I am not a nail artist but this varnish made me feel like one.  The brush makes it easy to apply a thin coat and in three swipes along the nail.  For a sheer effect you only need to apply one coat.  The photograph below is two coats.  It dries quickly and does not chip easily even without a top coat.  The glossiness of the polish lasts, some nail polishes the glossiness fades within a day or two – this didn’t.  The varnish applied evenly to the nail plate and the colour in the bottle is the colour of the varnish, I have had some that dry darker or even lighter than that in the bottle.

Liz Earle Instant Skin Boost Tonic

Bottle of Liz Earle Instant Skin Boost Tonic Who for: Anyone – young or old, oily, combination, dry or sensitive First impressions: Calming and soothing smell After one week: Why did I stop using you After one month: Love the way my skin looks and my eyes. Stockists: Liz Earle, Boots, QVC UK, John Lewis In this heat this is the perfect product in the spray bottle but unfortunately, I have the bottle that you pour out the required amount.  And it lives in my fridge – no I am not posh enough to have a skincare fridge, it just lives in my normal fridge.  Why, because it helps with the itchiness of my skin from the day and night’s heat.  Not only does this help with the itchy skin it also helps to reduce the heat and stickiness of my skin.  I use it morning and night after cleansing my face with Cleanse and Polish.  My skin feels softer and plumper after using it.  Some days I feel as I don’t need to apply my moisturiser if I am stopping in the house.  On the days
