LUSH - Candy Mountain


"Gorgeous, Amazing, Fabulous, Beautiful"

All i heard about this was amazing reviews and opinions so i tried and it is clear to me is just as fabulous as everyone was saying. With a gorgeous smell and amazing bubbling abilities it really has won me over.
I could still smell it 2 days later!!
This bar will turn your bath water a slightly greenish colour but hopefully you wont be able to see this for the bubbles!!

Would definately purchse again as the sweet sugary smell is the perfect thing to relax with after a long week! 
LOVED!

Soap & Glory Feel Good Factor Facial Moisturiser


I have been using this product for just over a year now and it has probably been the only thing that hasn't disappeared and then re-appeared in my skin care routine, i use this cream twice a day everyday and it has been a life saver. My skin is slightly on the dry side and it has taken me a long time to find this gorgeous rich moisturiser that is perfect for my skin. The cream is a yellowy cream colour and smells amazing. 


I cant find any faults with this product, smells great, feels amazing and does what it does on the packet and one tube usually lasts me a whole year at an amazing price of only £10! Well worth the buy and definitely will be staying with me for a long time.

Barry M Nail Polish


Barry M Nail Polish
(Fluorescent Pink, Cobalt Blue, Lemon, Mint, Blueberry Ice Cream, Jewel Britannia, Aqua Glitter,
Pink Iridescent, Burgundy Croc Effect, Black Nail Effect)

I have always been a big fan of Barry M nail polishes and love the range of colours, you can create lots of different patterns and nail art with the wide variety of colours including glitter and the nail effects range.

Firstly the Nail Paints...
(Fluorescent Pink & Cobalt Blue)
These two are gorgeous bright colours with great pigmentation, they also last quiet a while under a good topcoat.

Then Pastel Nail Paints...
(Lemon, Mint Green & Blueberry Ice Cream)

Amazing pastel colours that compliment each other very well and can be mixed with a range of different colours for different designs. Very fine, feminine and fantastic!

Glitters...
(Jewel Britannia, Aqua Glitter & Pink Iridescent)

I LOVE GLITTER! These glitter polish's are the best for applying over a base colour to add a bit of sparkle to your nails especially pink iridescent.
One of my creation's (simple but lovely)...

And Finally... The Effects...
Hmmmm....

I'm not a big fan of these, only because the original nail effects was good to begin with but because you can only create one pattern it gets quiet repetitive after a while. As for the croc effect polish, i think it is awful! There was hardly any pattern what so ever created and when it had fully dried it simply flaked of the nail. I don't know whether it was just the one that i got or if it happens with all of them, but i wouldn't recommend it.

MUA Eyeshadow Review!


MUA Eyeshadows!

These eyeshadows have been a life saver for me, after spending ridiculous amounts of money on high end eyeshadows (MAC,Urban Decay,Benefit) the list goes on, I finally found these gorgeous little things, which in many cases are a very close 'dupe' to some of the higher end products, all this for the tiny price of only £1! for the single eyeshadows and £3 for the trio's.

Single Eyeshadows

Pink Sorbet Trio

All these eyeshadows have gorgeous pigmentation and are all very workable colours, they can be used to create a great variation of makeup looks. They also come in very handy little pots that have good fastenings and seem to be for the most part very substantial. 

Most of the MUA range is priced between £1-£5 (With the PRO range costing a little more), at these prices you cannot complain with the quality of the product you get, all the eyeshadows are soft, usable and have great staying power. I will definitely be collecting more from this range and would definitely recommend these to anybody who is looking to try a new eyeshadow colour, as you are not really losing a lot if you don't like it.
5 Stars from me :)
