Daily Beauty Products (Saturday 14 February 2015)


Gosh Natural Blush (42 Melon) - What you may notice over the next few weeks I will be posting some of my classic favourites. Due to moving, and going through my vast makeup collection whilst packing I have found some products I had completely forgotten about. Gosh is another brand that I do not always look at when I go into Superdrug but their blushes are amazing. This is one of my favourites, it is the perfect natural blush for those days when you do not want to wear too much make up. The blush is light in texture and leaves you with a flawless complexion. 

This blush is available at www.goshcosmetics.com for £7.99

Mini Superdrug Haul - Ok, I think I am just finding excuses to go and spend some money. I tell my husband I am going out and exploring as I am new to the area. 

Whilst out "exploring" I stumbled upon a Superdrug so, I thought it would be rude not to have a look. I will review the products and show swatches on my website once I have given them a try. 

I purchased: 

  • Makeup revolution London Da de los Muertos eye shadow palette (£6.00 - makeuprevolutionstore.com)
  • Makeup revolution London Amazing Care Lipstick in Electric Love and Love Nude (£3.00 makeuprevolutionstore.com)
  • Sleek Highlighting Palette Precious Metals (£10.00 -sleekmakeup.com)
  • Sleek Eyebrow Stylist (£5.99 - sleekmakeup.com)
  • MUA Luxe Whipped Velvet Blush in Spry, Rococo and Ritzy (£3.00 - muastore.co.uk)
There are so many amazing products being released at the moment so stay tuned for reviews on each of the products.

Daily Beauty Products (Thursday 12 February 2015)

New York Color Individual Eyes (945 Midtown Mauve)-The one good thing I have discovered with moving house is that I have rediscovered some hidden gems in my make up collection. This is one of them. I have to admit it when I go to Superdrug I often just walk past the New York Color counter without a second glance. However, I do recommend you to have a go on the eye shadow palettes. 
I thought the aubergine colour was ideal for this time of year and today I am wearing a subtle smoky eye perfect for day wear. I am not keen on the primer / illuminator in the palette but I can overlook these as the eye shadows are amazing. There is no fall out and they glide on easily over the eye without any "tugging" at your eye lid.

When you are next in Superdrug I would strongly recommend you having a look at the counter and at £3.99 it is worth a try. Check out www.superdrug.com or newyorkcolor.com for further details.

Daily Beauty Products (Wednesday 12 February 2015)


So, as you previously know I am a military wife and I have just moved area with my husband. But, the joy of it is the fact I am surrounded by amazing shops. I was out exploring yesterday (my husband thought I was at the local recycling centre disposing of our moving rubbish) and happened to stumble on a Debenhams - I know the first week it is going to become expensive. 

The Chanel sales advisor in Debenhams was so helpful and knowledgeable about the products and new products that are due to be released. I ended up purchasing one of the new quads from the Summer collection (236 Tisse Fantaisie). I have to say I own many palettes but the colours in this quad are beautiful especially the fern green shade - I cannot wait to try these out. 

In addition, to my Chanel purchase I purchased two travel sizes from Urban Decay of the setting mist which I have heard so much about and can you believe it I have never tried the eye primer. The sales assistant in Urban Decay reassured me that I would no longer suffer with creases in my eye shadow, we shall see if she is right. 

All my purchases are from www.debenhams.com

Daily beauty pick (Tuesday 10 February 2015)



Bourjois Silk Edition Compact Powder (52 Vanilla)- this is a new product released by Bourjois. I love this powder it is lightweight and does not leave the "cakey" look. It states it is an 8 hour mattifying powder which blurts imperfections. It did leave my skin looking  natural and did cover some minor imperfections but mainly it evened my skin tone out. For £8.99 it's a pretty good  product for the price you pay. Available at feelunique.com or www.bourjois.co.uk

Why I have not been blogging.......

I am sorry I have not been blogging my daily beauty picks but some life stuff has got in the way this past week or so.

One thing I have not told you is that I am a military wife and it was that time yet again to move home. I have spent the last week moving my life from one end of the country and today is the first time I actually feel like my married quarter feels like home.

I love my husband and would do anything for him but sometimes it can be scary and lonely existence being military wife. Also with the constant fear of "are we moving again" is always in the fore front of my mind. So I hope you forgive me for my absence but I will be returning on Monday with my daily picks.

Love
