Hey everyone so sorry for not posting anything in the last few days as you probably know I work aswell so putting up posts everyday can be tricky but im going to try and keep on top of it! 

So anyways thought I go through my last months favourites! And I have quite a few as you can see! 

To start with my first favourite is 

1.  Iwhite teeth whitening kit I was looking for a kit that wouldn't harm my teeth or make them sensitive I will go in more detail in another post showing you before and after pictures but this kit was a bargain purchase at just £24.99 defiantly worth the money as I did see a change from my first go and I will be purchasing again I found this at boots.

2. The amazing garnier micellar cleansing water and l'oreal eye makeup remover are both my favourite products to remove Makeup and still are this month I can't say enough good things about them both they leave my skin feeling fresh and makeupless which is good and doesn't leave any trace of makeup behind which is what I love about these products you can purchases them from your nearest drugstore like superdrug, boots, savers, the price I purchased mine for was £3.00 from savers and £1.49 from asda.

3. Got 2 be happy hour hair spray love the smell of this spray makes your hair smell Devine also the hold of this hairspray is really good will hold a style for ages! Specially good for me as I wear a quiff a lot I purchased this from savers for £1.99.

4. Skin deep facial wipes these are amazing they remove the makeup with one wipe over the face and have a antibacterial ingredient aswell which is good for acne prone skin il defiantly be repurchasing these price was 0.99p from savers bargain! 

5. Leighton Denny leading lady this polish I recieved recently in my birch box last month and love it it's such a classy nail colour to wear everyday for any occasion doesn't chip at all and lasts for ages il defiantly be buying some more colours from their collection you can purchase Leighton Denny from their website or John Lewis price is £11.00.

6. Garnier moisture match moisturiser for oily skin and the antiac activ acne spray are both good and can be used together I always use the moisturiser first then spritz abit of the spray on to my hand and then apply to my problem area I defiantly recommend trying both of these if you have oily skin like myself these work wonders I purchased the moisturizer from asda for £2.00 and the antiac spray from www.feelunique.com in the sale for £7.99  price now 50ml is £9.99 and 100ml us £14.99.

7. Finally my last favourites are my make up bits which il post a close up picture below 


Nars sheer glow foundation is just amazing I love this it goes on so smoothly on the skin giving a flawless finish it's also great coverage and buildable , my gosh eyelash growth products are really good and I am noticing a difference in my eyelashes they are starting to look longer and a little thicker but will take a little while before noticing a big difference. Next we have my lip products for lipstick has to be the accessorize which is besotted in pink then for a lipgloss is NYX in pink love both these together gives a real pretty pink look to the lips not to in the face either can be worn everyday for any look. Lastly is the eyeko eyeliner this is amazing! Specially on nights out it will not budge lasts for ages and gives a nice neat line aswell specially for them first time liner users!

NARS sheer glow dupe!


Hey lovely people.... I found a dupe of one of my favourite foundations which is the nars sheer glow foundation I love this but not the price tag specially as I use foundation everyday for the job I'm in as I'm a beauty therapist so I get through bottles very quickly and can get very pricey.

So i went out shopping the other day in my favourite shop superdrug and was looking at foundations for ages and Came across this one by l'oreal infallible 24H which is defiantly a dupe for nars sheer glow. I struggle to find foundations for my oily skin but After using this for a few days I noticed that the texture and feel of this foundation on the skin looked amazing and didnt leave me shiny just a healthy glow,  both of these foundation would be suitable for all skin types and they both have very buildable coverage to I find just one layer with a brush is fine on my skin but if you wanted full coverage it would do it perfectly. The colour range is very close to the nars colours apart from the colour I got as I'm tanned at the moment so went darker but to the left is nars and to the right is infallible not to much of a big difference. I highly recommend trying my dupe if the nars is out your price range.

Colour;
colour of the nars is in light4 
colour of l'oreal infallible is in 140 golden beige 

Prices; 
Nars price; £31.00
L'oreal price; £9.99

Where to purchase;
www.superdrug.com
www.spacenk.com

Hope you liked this post and try my dupe you won't be disappointed or if you know of any other dupes for pricey foundations let me know in the comments below remember to follow my twitter, Instagram and bloglovin for all updates.

see you in my next post x

My morning skin care routine...




Hey everyone thought I'd put a second post up as I didn't post yesterday due to being busy very sorry... But anyways this is about my morning skincare routine I shall do a night routine in a separate blog! 

Let's get started so to begin with I shower every morning which every person does! I hope.. 
So while I let my hair air dry for a bit I go into the bathroom and 
proceed with my morning routine for my skin.

My 5 step morning skin routine...

firstly after I do a daily face scrub in the shower  I cleanse my face with my garnier micellar cleansing water I pour a bit onto two cotton pads 
and wipe all over my face throughly making sure there is no dirt left on my skin once I'm satisfied that my skin is squeaky clean I then move onto my second step.


Secondly I do a eye cleanse using my l'oreal eye makeup remover I don't know why I use a eye cleanser as well seeing as my first cleanser removes eye makeup but I like to make sure there's nothing left on my eyelashes so I do exactly the same as my first cleanser and pour a bit 
onto two cotton pads and wipe over my eyelashes.


Thirdly I apply my garnier moisture match mattifying fresh face cream all over the face in upward strokes. I might add I pick this up the other day as I was looking for a new moisturiser for oily skin and I'm loving it it's a light whipped cream that feels fresh and mattifying on the skin and does absorb my oiliness very well this creams suitable for oily to combo skin and I defiantly recommend it! 


Fourthly I then apply my snake venom eye cream by balance active formula under my eyes to help make them look less puffy in the morning and of course to stop those wrinkles appearing I gently tap this on starting from the inner to 
the outer corner.

And lastly once I've done everything I then apply my bareminerals prime time oil control primer all over my face to create a smooth oil free base for my makeup to sit on especially foundation.
