Dust & Dance Glitters Review

Glitter is an essential part of every makeup artist and enthusiasts collection, however I don’t think I have ever reviewed glitter pots here on my blog! So today we are changing that! Dust and Dance, ran by Jade, is a fab company that I have been using for years now and I am also apart of their brand ambassadors!*

Looking back at 2020

I think we can all agree 2020 was the craziest year of them all. No one could’ve predicted the insane time we would all go through. From hearing about the coronavirus at the beginning of the year and how blasé everyone was about it in January and how it was only effecting China, to suddenly impacting the entire world by mid March.

Settling into the new norm

It’s been a while since I update you all on life in lockdown, but to be honest there hasn’t been much to update on. But with new news coming out almost weekly about the stats and that cases are going up, countries constantly being added to the red list I thought I would do a little update.

Thoughts on Being a Blogger

I really have no idea what to call this post. Recently I took an unexpected break from blogging, which I haven’t done in a really long time. I have been writing posts ahead of time so when I am busy with uni, working and life in general I still have content to publish. Meaning I have one less thing to think about as I know I have content ready to go during the few months of my university course.

Becoming a Thoughtful Consumer

Over the last month or so I have been on two holidays and I felt like my wardrobe lacked the clothes I would need for colder climates. So I gladly used the holidays as an excuse to buy more jumpers and a new coat. I started to buy more and more clothes and shoes, not really thinking about what I had at home.

A Little Bit of Selfcare

Hello everyone, today’s post is something a bit different. I for one am guilty of not giving myself enough me time. Mainly because I’ve been super busy and life can get in the way sometimes. But having said that there is nothing better than having a full on pamper session in the evening (or any time of the day)!   It makes me feel so relaxed and ready for what the next week has to bring! I have been trying to have at least a few hours a week just for me, it’s so important to give time to yourself to recharge and to not have everything constantly whirling around on a never ending to do list! So here are the things I like to do just for me!

Dermaplaning At Home

For a little while I had been wanting to get a Dermaplaning facial. Dermaplaning is a facial treatment that exfoliates and removes peach fuzz, also called velus hair, basically removing the top superficial layer of skin. Resulting in smooth and brighter looking skin. It also allows treatments and products to penetrate deeper into the skin and reach newer cells, as well as an easier makeup application. 

Unicorn Cosmetics Lashes | Review

A few weeks ago I was contacted by Mel Blue about reviewing some of her products. I have seen Unicorn Cosmetics all over Beauty Bay as well as social media so of course I said yes! I was super excited to try some of her products and have been loving trying them out over the past few weeks!

Makeup Geek Full Spectrum Eye Liner Pencil | Review

Hi everyone! Hope you are all doing well! I have had these Makeup Geek eye liners for a while now, whilst I don’t use them all the time I really like to use them during the Spring/Summer time.

The Body Shop Instaglow CC Cream | Review

Having combination skin can often mean no matter what the weather is doing my skin is always looking oily. After years of trying to combat the oiliness to make it more matte, this year I decided I would embrace it. So earlier this year, as the weather started to get warmer, I picked up The Body Shop Instaglow CC Cream in the shade Bright Glow.The Instaglow range come in 3 shades, Bright Glow, Peachy Glow and Warm Glow. I was immediately intrigued by this product as it’s described on TheBodyShop.com to have a multi-tasking formula that illuminates, minimises the appearance of pores, reduces shine,  moisturises for 24 hours and revives skin with a healthy-looking glow. It’s non comedogenic (doesn’t cause blocked pores or blackheads) and suitable for all skin types. Plus it has SPF 20 which adds some sun protection.
