Empties




  • Naked Shampoo- I love this range and have totally moved over to this, no my sulphates for my hair!
  • Champeneys body butter and scrub- What luxury products these are, really love them. The consistency of the body butter is really interesting but is great.
  • Johnsons Baby Oil- I add this to the bath sometimes, to add moisture to my skin, would recommend this as a cheap bath oil!
  • La Roche Posay Matte Moisturiser- This stuff is amazing now I've ran out I find my skin to be so oily!

I took another photo of some empties but can't seem to find it! It included;
  • Dove Maximum protection deodorant
  • About 3 old mascara's
  • Some blotting papers
  • L'oral true match powder
  • Tesco Body Wash
  • Steam cream
  • Soap and Glory Body Butter

PIXI Early Bird Palette


This is pretty much an all in one palette for your face. After Christmas I went on the PIXI site as I was interested in trying out some of their eyeliners as I hear such good reviews about them. But then I came across this little number. Behind those beautifully designed closed doors are 4 shadow bases, 16 eyeshadows, 3 blushers, 2 bronzers and a highlighter. I thought wow that would be perfect for my weekday mornings where I'm up early and in a rush to go to work! So I picked it up for £16.


Above you can see the shadow bases and the eyeshadows themselves. There is a good range of colours here I'm not disappointed. I love the shadow bases and would actually wear them on their own sometimes. The majority of the eyeshadows are shimmery, there is one matte brown, for me this is where the palette is let down as I do like my matte shades. The pigmentation is good although can sometimes be a bit grainy.



The bronzers are both shimmery, not too much but it is noticeable. The highlight is beautiful it could probably be my favourite thing about the whole palette, it slides on so well and gives a perfectly radiant glow. As for the blushers, I've only just really started getting in to them and I do lie heavily faithful to my Benefit Harvana. I love the plum blusher and the pink one, but me and orange don't really go. the consistency and pigmentation of these are good and I do recommend them. 

I'm glad I had this palette as it will be great to throw in my bag is I'm staying away for the night, it's got everything in it and it's so compact, for the price I really don't think I can complain, I think I will get a pair bit of use out of this product.

Have you tried any PIXI products?

Nuxe Reve De Miel Lip Balm



Today I wanted to write a post on a product that has totally made a difference to me. I’m sure it’s something that you have all heard of before...introducing the Nuxe Reve de Miel Ultra Nourishing Lip Balm. I had seen some many people talk about this on their blogs on or on youtube. Everybody seemed to rave about it! For as long as I can remember I have also suffered with really bad chapped lips, Nivea and Chapstick don’t help one bit for me. It’s kind of distressing sometimes as I just wanted smooth lips like everyone else! Having heard people say what a saviour this product is for chapped lips I just had to jump on the bandwagon. So as I was browsing the feelunique sale I just thought why not! I’m doing an order let’s make it worthwhile!

I’ve only had this product a week and already I can’t imagine where I would be without it anymore! I have been using this as my main lip balm just to get my lips in the condition I want them. When they are feeling a little better then I will probably just switch to using it at night. I have been using it alongside my Lush lip scrub and what a dream team they are! The Nuxe Reve de Miel Ultra Nourishing Lip Balm has a lovely citrus smell that isn’t too overpowering- in fact it is almost relaxing. With the results I am seeing I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this to anyone! It’s a great thick, nourishing lip balm that really does wonders for those of us who suffer with chapped lips!

Sugar and Spice Self-Heating face mask Review


Before I start- Enter my giveaway guys!

In my previous post you would of seen that I purchased some face masks from the new Superdrug range. I have already used the White Chocolate mask and have a review of this- so check that out!

Unfortunately this face mask hurt my face! I think it was too intense for my skin to be honest. It did smell lovely it was like gingerbread! However it was very sticky and was nothing like the picture on the packaging. Oh so sticky!! An this was the thing that put me off the most! I did still enjoy using it I guess, but I don't think this face mask is for me, my skin is too sensitive so I wouldn't recommend it for sensitive skin. An if you like masks that dry over time then this one isn't for you.

Instant Smooth Crystal Lip Balm- Clarins


This appeared in my Ebay purchases and gosh isn't it stunning? The colour and the packaging just made me fall in love with this baby. I managed to snap this up for about £8. I have been using this every day since I bought it. The shade is crystal violet, yum.

From the picture you can see there is a lipstick centre with an outer balm. Now this is my kinda thing! I tried the Revlon Lip Butters and didn't get on with it. I tried the L'oreal twin and loved it! But my love for this Clarins lip balm has taken over! I've become a right sucker for Clarins products too.

I think these are limited edition also..shh! Grab one while you can :) you won't regret it!
