LUSH - Cinders

I love lush - I have loads of lush products and don't use them as much as I would love to, so I decided to take a lush bath and my weapon of choice was cinders, it was the first time I have used cinders and I loved it, I am sure lush has this secret ingredient that just makes you feel like you are bathing in silk, my skin always feels amazing. Cinders has a lovely smell and I can't quite put my finger on it, it has little red bits on top that is meant to be like popping candy but I didn't hear no pop :( 

It fizzed aways a lot quicker than other lush bath bombs I've had, and I am not sure if it was because my water wasn't super hot or because I have cinders for a while but my water didn't go as yellow as i have seen, it just looked a bit mucky. 
I added a tiny bit of the comforter just to add a little bit of pink and a few bubbles, I am also running out and didn't want to use it all ha ha. 

This is how my bath looks I like to have the lights out and my candles lit and abit of music on ♡  
Its super dark so I took a picture with the flash on too ^_^ ..... 

Do you have any other lush products you would like me to try out and blog?? 
What are your favourite lush products?? 

Much love,

Korean Cosmetics Haul


Heyyyy, so first of all I am so sorry I only got to upload two posts last week, I have a few things lined up that I can't wait to show you! And also how nice is the weather this week ?? I am in the north west (UK) .... what's it like where you are ?? The sun is shining today and I have my music on and today is a happy day ^_^ 

So as you can already see, today I have a Korean Cosmetics Haul to share with you ^_^ I love Korean cosmetics not only are there packaging super super cute but they are also cheap and do the job so its a win win I bought all mine on EBay and most of them are from the brand Etude House! 
The first thing I bought was this 3 step black head pore remover, it have the cutest name ever, its called 'Pig-nose clear black head 3-step kit' so all the instructions are in Korean but I guess it wont be too hard to work out lol ......I hope not ha ha! I bought this for about £1.93 which is about $3.23 this brand is 'Holika Holika' ... I will tweet about this when I use it and if it is amazing enough to get its own blog post I will blog about it too, but keep a look out on my twitter for it ^_^ my twitter 


I draw in my eyebrows everyday, so this was something I just had to try out and it is exactly the same color as the pencil from Rimmel that I am using now ^_^ this is from 'Etude house' and was £2.60 or $4.34 is has a twist up creamy color on one end which is also slanted for better lines and has a little mascara-wand-like brush at the other end, and I always use these when doing my eyebrows so I am super happy and it's well worth the money ^_^ 


 I came across this Wonder Pore and new straight away I was going to buy it because I am looking to get a new skin care routine and I was to use and try some new products, so this is only a 25ml bottle, and claims to be total pore solution 7 in 1 ...... so 2 in 1 and 3 in 1 I believe but 7 .... OK so it claims to ~Moisturize the skin ~ clear skin ~ smooth pores management ~ deep cleansing pore ~ fiji management ~ PH.5 slightly acidic care ~ pores and maintain momentum ~ ....WOW that's a lot!! this is also Etude House, and was £2.39 or $3.99

I also saw this mascara remover and I don't really need it but I thought it was cute and it matched my wonder pore so I bought that too, it is also 25ml it is from the same brand and is the same price ^_^ 
I want to try some new powders to set my foundation I always get my powders in Transparent and I think this brand is called 3W CLINIC but I am not sure, the packaging also says Crystal Creator Bright which sounds lovely ha ha, it comes with a powder puff and is a 30g pot for £4.78 or $7.99 this was really cheap so I can't wait to see how it works ^_^ 

Next is primer..... I don't have enough primers so I am making it my mission to buy myself a primer every time I come in contact with them ha ha, so this one also has super cute packaging and I just love the girl on the package looking over her glasses ha ha, so this is Sugar Girl All Skin Collagen Primer, from the brand, Baviphat, This is one of two out of everything I have bought that has English on the pack, and it says, Silky Primer Covers Pores And Wrinkles Smoothly with Collagen. This is a 30ml tube and was £4.77 or $7.98 again super cheap and cute and I love it ^_^

 I think I just saved the best till last ^_^ everything about this just makes me swoon ha ha, I love this little bird on the box and the bow and the little blue mirror and all the little pink flowers arrrggg I love it, and then the same pattern is in printed on the actually product ^_^ so happy ...... so this is also from Etude House and is called Dear Girls, and it is and oil control pact, this is a 8g pot and also comes with a powder puff, I love everything about this product,   it was £5.37 or $8.98 
Post and packaging was FREE on all of my products!! 

They also sent me a bunch of samples to try out mainly creams and BB creams, I will tweet these so make sure to follow my twitter to see these!! ^_^ 

I am so happy with my Korean Cosmetics Haul, Do you use any of these products ?? what are your thoughts on Korean Cosmetics ?? 

Much Love,

2. What is the most interesting thing you have learnt about blogging in general?
I would say this is probably how to actually run a bog, using Labels, tags, links, pictures, sharing your blog across social media and how it all works. .... I had a blog a really long time about about 10 years maybe and it was more of a diary blog and I had no idea how to do anything other than write and it went nowhere so I am glad I decided to jump in the blogging world again and do it proper this time.

3. What or who inspired you to blog?
I click on that many links when I am online that I can't remember the first blog I came across the day I started blogging, but I watch a lot of beauty gurus on YouTube and it was something I saw that lead me to a blog post and then it was instantly I thought I need to be doing this...... if you want to know who's blogs I am always on and love and inspire me leave a comment and I can do another post about that.

Hopefully with a lot more post's and a lot more readers ^_^
 10. What kind of products do you prefer to review?
I love to review nail polish, foundation and skin care.

My next set of questions are off Verity I hope none of them are the same ha ha.

1. If you were given £500 what beauty items would you buy with it?
I would buy a lot of Boots No.7 Skin care, foundation from every brand I could think of and then lots of stuff that catch my eye ^_^ .... if only would love that.

2. If you could be like your idol who would it be and why?
I would be a mash up of zoe sugg Tanya Burr & Kandee Johnson .... I would like Kandee's skills, zoe's personality and Tanyas looks .... perfect ^_^ 

3. What made you start blogging and what do you blog about?
It was beauty videos on YouTube that I was watching that lead me to beauty bloggers, and when I started reading I was hooked! I blog about beauty products, Hauls, Reviews, Favorites ect. 

4. You are given a choice between being rich and lonely or poor and happy, what do you choose?
I would rather be poor and happy, because if you are happy you have everything you have ever wanted, and you can always work and being rich from there ha ha.

Maybelline color show nail polish, W7 mascara (I actually really like W7) and anything from ELF ^_^

6. Loads of cheap handbags or one expensive one?
Loads of cheap ones, I love bag's so the more the better and price doesn't matter to me, I love a good budget buy.
 
7. Favourite perfume and why?
Lady Millions is my favorite at the minuet I could just sniff my arm all day ha ha.

8. Your Top 3 go to beauty/fashion websites and why?
Boots for sure so I get points back to spend even more ^_^  ..... Everything5pound.com they have to nice things on there and I love getting shoes from there too, then for both beauty and fashion ebay because I love a good sale ^_^

9. Online shopping or Venturing out to shop?
Both I spend just as much money if I am online or in store and if I am not out shopping then I will be online ha.

February Favorites

I was so excited to do this monthly favourites post, because it's my first one, as my blog is new this monthly favourites is kinda like an all time favourites, some of the products I have are new so it kind of qualifies ha ha, but yeah these are what I am loving right now ^_^

This is something I have been using for a really long time, it is the only nail polish remover I will use only because it is super cheap, quick and smells so nice, it is Easy Nails, Fast and Fruity, I buy mine from 'Home and Bargain' for 89p .... I know it's so cheap I love it, I use this a lot because I like to wear nail polish a lot but I cant wear it for work so this is great for me to get the most out of my color because I can take my polish off last minuet. 

I love both these products I received them both in Glossy box's the Hydrating Moisturiser was one of the first products I got when I signed up to glossy box, so I have been using it for a good six months, and I love it, it works really well on my skin and its just perfect for me, it has an SPF 15 which I love because I don't want to burn, and it has Vitamin E and Cassia Alata. So naturally I was made up when I got the Monu Illuminating Primer in a recent glossy box, this is pretty much the same as the face cream but a primer so if I am in a rush I just use this on its own and again I love it, this brand just works perfectly with my skin. I am not sure where I can buy more MONU  products from so if you have any links I would be so happy if you could put it in the comments for me ^_^ 

Rimmel Stay Blushed cream blusher is another product I got out of a Glossy Box, OMG I just love Glossy Box ha ha, it say liquid cheek tint but it is def more of a thick cream it is the first cream blusher I have ever used / owned and I love it, I use it more for night outs as it has a really good staying power, mine is in 004 Sunkissed Cherry and it is a dark peach color, with a hint of pink shades ^_^ 

I take these everywhere with me I love this, and I need to get them all, at the minuet I only have two of the Maybelline Baby Lips I have Peach Kiss and Hydrate, I wear peach kiss most days going to work, because not a lot of people see me so I don't want to waste me good lip glosses, and the Hydrate one I wear every night to bed, I picked mine up in Superdrug after reading all the hype about them and I love them.

I don't even have words for how much in love I am with this product, I bought it last summer along with another shade that I can't remember and I can't find :( sad times ..... I liked this so much I couldn't bring myself to wear it until now, it is a Max Factor lipstick in the shade Rosewood and it is a beautiful brown nude with a hint of purple-ness ^_^ it is so nice and creamy and it feels like it is really nice on my lips, it doesn't have the best staying power but I don't mind re applying. 

I love the Rimmel - Wake me up concealer, I only use it when I have break outs or to brighten my under eyes if I need it, this is super cheap and I will be stocking up on this item for sure ^_^ 

I have a massive love hate relationship with mascara, this is the Collection 2000 Extreme Lengthening Mascara, I have so many of them that I hardly use but this one I love it goes on perfect every time, this is my go to mascara and another product I will be buying again and again and again ha ha. 


Last up these tweezers from The Vintage Cosmetic Company, They do an amazing job but its more how they look why I love them, I'm a sucker for cute/shabby chic/ vintage looking things, and I love them ^_^ 

I hope you like my February Favourites ^_^ 
Speak to you all soon 

Much Love,

Avon Haul

My mum has been getting the Avon for so many years now, and it's one of them things where I only really look through the book if I'm a little bored, and I never really get anything, every now and then I get the odd thing and recently decided to pick up some bits. So I have lots of pics to show you and I'll tell you what I got. 
The main reason I picked up the book this time round was because I needed something for my nails, they have always been super thin and lately my hands are in water quite a lot and they have started to peel and split, so I found this peeling and brittleness solver, I have used this once so far and it dries like a sheet of plastic so it became a habit to peel it off, so I am going to try it again but this time leave it alone ha ha, I picked this up for £2.50

As I was in the nail section it was only natural that I looked for a nail color, I can't seem to go anywhere lately without picking up a nail polish ha ha, obsessed much, I found this lovely nude color, from Nail pro+ in 'Naked Truth' and this was £3.00 ..... This will be getting tried and tested and I can't wait ^_^

When I was on the same page I noticed this gold glitter color, and it looked really nice and I would wear it maybe over a statement color on my ring finger maybe, I will def be trying this one out soon too ..... This was also £3.00 

 I have never used a lip crayon before so I picked one out on a whim and the one I picked out is .... Irresistibly sexy sultry lip pencil ..... wow that's a long name for a lip pencil ha ha, I am all for nudes so I picked out 'Naturally Naked' maybe next time I am going out for the day and getting food I will wear this and I can do a review / first impressions ..... This cost me £3.50 which is fine if I don't like it and never use it again, but time will tell.
I thought I best pick up a lipstick in case the lip pencil went all wrong and so I wouldn't be upset 'ha ha' *wink wink* I am getting almost the same with lipsticks as I am with nail polishes, and blusher isn't far behind either ha, so I went for the new Ultra Color Absolute Lipstick .... I got mine in 'Tea Rose' which is a lovely pink-y brown shade just a bit more color than a nude. This was £5.00 which I think is amazing for a decent lipstick.


Then my Avon lady sent two freebies ^_^ yay .... Thank you Avon lady .... she sent a lovely lipstick in the shade 'Knock Out Pink' And a beautiful lip gloss from 'Irresistibly Sexy Lip Gloss' in the shade 'Undressed Nude' 

I am so happy with all my products and the two free products, I will defiantly be picking up some other stuff from Avon in the future.

Do you use Avon ?? What are your favourite products ?? 
I hope you like this post and feel free to leave your comments I love to read them all and reply. 

Much Love,
