  Product: Fenty Beauty Pro Kiss'r Lip Loving Scrubstick   Who for: Anyone who wants soft nourished lips   First impressions: Do not think it will do much to my dry flaky lips   After one week: Oh my god my lips   After one month: Will not be without this   Stockists: FentyBeauty, Boots, Harvey Nichols   I bought this as I had found wearing masks when out and about were making my dry lips drier, sore, and flaky.  This first time I used it; I knew it was different to others I had used in the past.  Quick swipe other my lips leave for a few minutes and wipe off.  My lips looked hydrated and smooth.  One worry I had would have to use it more than once a day to maintain the effect.  I have that I only need to use it once a week for my lips to stay flake free.  It smells incredible a lovely vanilla smell. Without With After

Garnier Ultimate Blends Coconut & Macadamia Hair Food Conditioner

  Product: Garnier Ultimate Blends Coconut & Macadamia Hair Food Conditioner   Who for: Anyone who wants to smooth and tame unruly hair   First impressions: Love the smell   After one week: Hair is less flyaway   After one month: Hair is soft and less frizzy   Stockists: Garnier, Superdrug, Boots   Hubby bought me this when he bought the shampoo to keep my hair in condition as I have started to bleach it.  It compliments the shampoo perfectly with the light scent of coconuts.  After shampooing my hair twice and rinsing well each time, I remove as much water as possible and apply about a fifty pence piece size of conditioner to my hair paying attention more to the ends rather than the root.  I leave it on for about five minutes then rinse it off.  Which is does without leaving residue.  Once air dryer my hair felt soft and nourished without feeling weighted down, it as less frizzy and no flyaways either.  It is a great everyday conditioner.

  Product: Garnier Ultimate Blends Coconut & Macadamia Hair Food Shampoo   Who for: Anyone who wants to smooth and tame unruly hair   First impressions: Love the smell   After one week: Hair is less flyaway   After one month: Hair is soft and less frizzy   Stockists: Garnier, Superdrug, Boots   Hubby bought me this as I love the smell of coconuts and to help keep my bleached hair under control.  Even though my hair is short as in Pixie short it can still be frizzy.  It is rich and creamy.  The shampoo is a thick liquid that a small amount goes along way.  It creates a fine lather that cleans and nourishes each hair strand without leaving a residue, it also washes out easily.  I massage this into the hair and scalp taking my time the first use, then the just the hair the second time.  It is a great every day shampoo that looks after your hair.

Nars Climax Extreme Mascara - mini

Image
  Product: Nars Climax Extreme Mascara - mini   Who for: Anyone who wants extreme volume and black pigment in one coat   First impressions: Not sure if I can get into the inner corner   After one week: Love it   After one month: Love it   Stockists: Nars, LookFantastic, Cult Beauty, Boots, FeelUnique, Space NK,   Did you know that if you have an Alexa or Google you can ask them to send you samples, neither did I until I had an email from a company (Beauty Markdown).  I tried it and got this mini.  I like a mascara that makes my lashes look their best and this mascara did it.  It did not smudge or flake.  Just stayed how I had applied it.  If I wanted a more dramatic look, I would wait a few seconds and apply a second coat.  It did not clump just separated and made my lashes look black, defined and with volume.  My lashes did not feel heavy or crunchy nor did they stick together when I blinked like some have done in the past. One coat  Two coats

BlueSky Gels Nail Mail Subscription - August

Image
  Product: BlueSky Gels Nail Mail Subscription – August Who for: Anyone and everyone First impressions: Love the brush and formula After one week: Still shiny no chips After one month: Still going strong Stockists: BlueSky This is the second month of my subscription  The shades are ones I would choose but without the glitter which is very noticeable when wet but not so when dry which for me is great, as I am not someone who would wear glitter on my face let alone on my nails.  You have the ability to build the intensity of the colour.  The picture shows my nails with three coats on.  It applied smoothly and did not pool at the cuticle or be streaky.  They were easy to remove as I would any other gel polish, leaving no glitter behind which is another bonus.  The colours in this collection are Secret Power, Cosmic Light (on my nails) and Stardom Glow.  These are shades that I would wear all the time just wish they did not have glitter in them.
