Holy Grail Make Up Products


Some lovely bloggers and myself have been working on an exciting collaboration this past week, and it's been super exciting ! Since Friday a new post has been uploaded onto someone's blog, and we've. Even talking one stop about make up. There's been posts about make up setups, make up to take when traveling, and most recently a post all about getting ready to go out when you really can't be bothered. Now it's my turn! Today I'll be talking about some of my holy grail make up products, some of the products that I purchase over and over again. 

Before you continue, make sure to check out the other 3 posts on the blogs below, whilst you're there you may as well give them a follow! 



I think that every girl has holy grail make up that just works for them and they need to keep purchasing, I envy the women that has an entire make up bag full of this!

L'Oreal Infallible 24H-Matte in Vanilla

I've been buying this foundation now for awhile, I'm not sure how long, but I've made multiple purchases of the stuff. This foundation and the colour of this foundation may be the best one that I have ever found, and I can't imagine changing my mind on that anytime soon. I usually find it quite difficult to find a foundation that works well for me, and I spent years looking orange and just not finding the one. But this foundation does everything I need it to, it covers my bags, covers my overwhelming rosy cheeks, evens my skin tone, and makes me feel confident.




L'Oreal Infallible Mattifying Base Primer

I don't usually have a problem finding a primer that works for me, the only reason I purchased this originally was because it was on a deal with the foundation, I couldn't exactly leave it behind could I?  I couldn't wear foundation without primer, and I usually switch it up after I finish one because, why not? If I'm being honest though, I absolutely cannot fault this primer at all, it minimises my pores and makes the application of my make up absolutely glorious.



Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in Fair

I know a LOT of people who use this same concealer, a lot who swear by it, and I didn't get what the big deal was, until I bought it! This concealer is THE BEST and most affordable that I have found. It's absolutely fantastic at getting rid of blemishes and dark circles, and still looks natural.


Revolution Brow Pomade

My hair has got so much darker over the years, whereas my eyebrows have just stayed incredible light, which is annoying, but I say, MORE! I love this pomade, I use a little brush thingy to apply it and it's so easy and doesn't take any time at all, and it looks great!




Maybelline New York Master Ink Liquid Liner

I've been doing my liquid eyeliner for a bit now, but I'm still in the stage of repeatedly poking myself in the eye, but I never claimed to be an expert! This was the first liquid eye liner I purchased, and I've  never started because I don't see a reason to, I love how easy it is too apply, and how it looks when applied, it's great.



Well that's it lovelies, that's the end of our make-up collaboration, and I must admit that it was super fun, and some amazing posts have been shared with the blogging world!

Make sure to give us all a follow on Twitter to keep updated with, well everything!   



I'm really interested to hear what your holy grail make up products are, leave me a comment down below!

June Glossybox


I've been interested in these monthly subscription boxes for awhile now, and I finally decided to sign up for one. After spending days upon days researching, watching more videos than I could ever remember, I finally decided to sign up for Glossybox!


Now the first thing I was blown away by was how beautiful the boxes are, it's such a lovely pastel pink, and it's so simple yet elegant.


As you can see from this picture of the boxes contents, in this months glossy box we received 5 full size products, and one bonus sample. The boxes contents were worth around £60 and I must say that it was a fantastic first box!


Ladvial - Full Size 
RRP / £19.99
SHOP / boots.com

So the first product we have is the sun protection spray by Ladvial. This product is SPF 15, which is something that really disappointed me when opening the box because I'm really fair, and had this have been of a higher SPF I would have definitely used this! This product does sound very good though, and I may still give it a try as it's scientifically proven to protect four types of UV rays, and I'm now one to judge a product without at least giving it the benefit of the doubt and trying it. 



Emite Make Up - Full Size
RRP / £12.50
Shop / emitemakeup.com
The next products is a lovely lip and cheek tint by Emite make up. This is a two in one tint for both lips and cheeks, which I think is a great thing to throw in your handbag, there's nothing like a two in one product! 


Starskin - Full Size
RRP / £8.50
Shop / starskinbeauty.com
What's this? ANOTHER FULL SIZED PRODUCT! Here we have Eye Catcher, a smoothing Bio-Cellulose Eye Mask by Starskin. I'm yet to use this product, so I am unable to give my opinion on this products, but I must admit that I am excited to use this. Reading from the leaflet though, I know that this product is soaked in vitamin rich serum, they are super hydrating and are quick to reduce puffiness and dark circles. Dark circles are something that bothers me a lot, so knowing their claim to reduce this intrigues me into using this product soon.


Spa To You - Full Size.
RRP / £6.99
Shop / spatoyou.com
This months new discovery product is the Konjac Sponge by Spa To You. This is a very interesting product, upon opening this I was amazed by the sponge, and am really enjoying using this product. So this is the latest cleansing trend from Japan and Korea, they are made from the natural fibres of the konjac, which is a porous root vegetable. 



De Bruyere - Full Size
RRP / £9.48
Shop / Deruyere.fr
This is an After Sun Lotion by De Bruyere, and is another full sized product. This is another product that I am yet to use. This is for skin that feels a little sensitive after a day in the sun or to simply help prolong your summer tan. It's enriched with gardenia petals soaked in coconut oil, alongside vitamin E. 


Aussie Hair Care - Sachet 
RRP / £1. 09
Shop / aussiehair.com/hair
We also received a bonus product this month, which was a 3 minute miracle reconstructor deep conditioner. Now this is something I will definitely use as Aussie my hair brand of choice.


 I'm incredibly pleased with my first Glossybox, and really hope they continue to be as good, or better than the previous. I'll also continue to share the contents of my box with you here every month!

Guilty Pleasures


Guilty Pleasures 

"I don't believe in guilty pleasures. If you enjoy something, there's nothing guilty about it."


Everyone has those little things in their life that fill them with absolute delight. These might be the things we believe to be our guilty pleasures, the things that we think others may see as strange.



My Guilty Pleasures:

  • I REALLY do still enjoy Hannah Montana, I just can't stop listening to here or watching her movie! I just love, LOVE, LOOVVEE her!
  • I haven't done this for a very long time, but the idea is always at the back of my mind...I use to always pour icing sugar mix into a cup, make the mixture and just sit and eat it, YUM!
  • I adore baths, I know a lot of people like baths, but I could just lay in one for my entire life (providing it's always warm) and it would be perfect.
  • Everyone knows that I LOVE movies, but I will watch ANYTHING, no matter how soppy, or how cheesy, I will probably still love it, and most likely still cry because I seem to cry at most movies.
  • I completely hoard make up and beauty products to the point that I have far too much for onc person.
  • I'm a gamer, but Minecraft is most certainly my guilty pleasure. I'll only play it on adventure mode and I will literally spend hours upon hours just building things. 






So what are your guilty pleasures?
