Stockists: Benefit, John Lewis, Debenhams


I have in the past used coloured eyeliners but have always gone back to either black or brown.  I liked but not love the They’re Real Eyeliner, I found I had issues with the green, blue and purple eyeliners.  I wasted more on a sheet of tissue than I had put on my eye.  They would release product when not in use and would break off when I applied them.  When I saw that Benefit had released a new eyeliner, I couldn’t wait for my Brow Wax and Tint appointment to try it.  Emma at John Lewis, Grand Central Birmingham demonstrated the purple and blue.  I am glad that I tried the blue first as this is the colour and texture of and eyeliner I have been looking for.  It is soft and easy to apply without having to prime it first.  It glides onto my eye lids without pulling the skin.  It lasts without smudging or fading.  I haven’t tight lined my eyes for awhile as I have Dry Eye and MGD and some eyeliners irritate my eyes.  This doesn’t and I have fallen in love with the way my eyes look once done.  In the future, I will tight line my eyes with this and apply Roller Liner as my liner and try the purple, brown and black.

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
