June Favourites...

Hi guys! So I haven't blogged in ages so I thought I would do a 6 in 1 review on some of my favourite products in June.




Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum Foundation - This is my all time favourite foundation. It smells really fresh and feels light on the skin. It gives great coverage and leaves a subtle glow.

Bourjois Volumizer Mascara - I have blogged about this product before but I have to mention it again. It has two brushes, one to separate and lengthen the lashes and a second that really adds volume. If your off on holiday this is a great one to bring with you.

Bourjois Lipstick in Rose Cachemire - This colour is a really pale pink but bright enough so you don't look too washed out. It smells really good too.

Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder - I've been using this powder for years now and I would never use anything else. It's really cheap, has good coverage and has a lasting finish.

Rimmel Blush in Santa Rose - I love Rimmel products and they have a great range of blushers. I like the colour Santa Rose which is a really light, peachy pink tone.

Lash Studio Lashes - I tend to go through false eye lashes like there's no tomorrow, so these ones from Lash Studio are perfect for me. They are really cheap and are so easy to put on. I would recommend these if you are new to false lashes and want to practise some different looks.

Magnetic Nail Paints...

Hi everyone! I hope you have all enjoyed the Queen's Jubilee. How nice is it to have an extra long bank holiday!

So today's post is about the Magnetic Nail Paints by Barry M. These are a new nail product out on the market and Barry M is just one out of many brands that do these unique polishes. I love Barry M. All the products are cheap, they have an excellent range of colours to choose from and are always first in leading with new trends.

There are four magnetic paints to choose from, each having their own unique magnet. I went for the Blue one as the magnet design slightly looks like the Union Jack flag, perfect for this weekend!

Apply a base coat and once dry work with one nail at a time by applying a second coat. While the nail is still wet, immediately hover the magnet over the nail using the ridge as a guide. Hover the magnet for around 10 seconds and watch the design appear.


These nail paints are available from Super Drug at a retail price of £4.99 each. Choose from a range of four colours, Violet, Burgundy, Dark Silver & Blue.

Thanks for reading guys...X

Top Makeup Remover/Cleanser...

Hi guys! I wanted to share with you all my favourite makeup remover. Bioderma H20 Crealine Solution is specially formulated for sensitive, dry skin. The solution gently cleanses the face and eyes and removes all traces of makeup, including water proof mascara.

What I love about this product is that it is basically just like water. It is so gentle on the skin and with active ingredients prevents the feeling of any irritation. It is quick to use, just soak a cotton pad and sweep across the face and neck. It needs no rinsing just gently pat the skin dry with a clean cotton towel.



If you have dry skin like me I would recommend the Crealine TS H20 solution. This is a french product, TS standing for "Tres seches"  - very dry skin.

For those of you who have oily skin then try H20 Sebium Solution, perfect for combination or oily skin.
