My Holy Grail Product!

Since I've bought it, I've been obsessed with The Body Shop Honey Bronzer! I've wanted it for ages so when I went on holiday I finally picked one up and I'm soo glad I did! Loads of beauty gurus have said this is the best bronzer for pale skin and I totally understand and agree.

The packaging on this product is really eye catching and I really like it, It's one of my favourite packaging on any product I own! It's a nice pale bronzer and it's not muddy or dark at all. When you open it, the bronzer is patterned like a honeycomb which is so beautiful. 

I will definitely repurchase this product as it's soo worth the £13, which is a really good price! It's totally affordable so if you can get your hands on it, you should check it out! There is more than once shade but I got the lightest one in 01. 

Let me know if you have this product and what you think!

Soleil Tan De Chanel Bronzer!

When I was in England on holiday, I bought my first ever Chanel product! I've seen and heard loads of beauty gurus and YouTubers raving about this and I've been dying to try it out!

The packaging is absolutely lush, Chanel has got to be one of my favourite packaging! Its so designer and makes you look really fancy when you have it!

For a Chanel product, I think £32 was a very reasonable price for this bronzer. I was willing to pay and I think it was money well spent!

This is now my go to bronzer that I use for contouring! I've never had a cream bronzer before as I tend to stick to powders but I'm amazed with how natural this product looks!

Its not too dark which is something I worth about with bronzers as I'm very pale and its hard to get one without making it go orange or look muddy.

This product really amazed me and I'm totally in love with it! Its a big container so should last me a long time but when I do eventually run out, I will definitely repurchase!

Philip Kingsley!

Hey everyone!

I'm going to be reviewing a sample product that I got in the Glamour Party Beauty Box. I have a blog post on that HERE.

I tried this out this morning and thought I would tell you all my opinion on it. I've never heard of Philip Kingsley as a brand before so I was interested to try this out. I found this to be an amazing product and I'm glad I got to try out a sample. I hope to purchase the full thing.

It also smells amazing, which is a bonus with hair products. The bad thing is, the samples are so small so I only got one use out of it.

I still recommend this to everyone and if you're looking for a new shampoo and conditioner, go for this one!

Bourjous Paris Blush!

Hey everyone!

I've decided to review a Bourjous blush today!

I've seen some people rave about this and thought I would try it. I think it looks absolutely beautiful and I love how compact it is, so it's good for travelling purposes aswell. It comes with one of them little brushes, which I don't use. I don't think many people do ha!

It's very shimmery so I would say you don't need much when applying it. It's also very pigmented and I think the shade I got is a lovely shade of pink. It's a great pop of colour on the cheeks and complements most skin tones. I got the shade 34 Rose D'jor. I would recommend this product to most people too :)

Bourjous Chocolate Bronzer!

Hey everyone!

I've got a little review today of a product I got recently! I am a little late buying this product but I thought, better late than never, so jumped on the band wagon and got it! I'm sure the majority of you people reading this have this product as it was very famous at one point, and still quite is.

It's the Bourjous Chocolate Bronzer and I got it in the shade 51, which is the lightest. I believe they only have 2 shades, 51 and 52 which in some cases can be quite annoying but it didn't bother me at this point.

If you're just starting out in makeup or you're a beginner with bronzer. this would be a great product. It doesn't have any undertones or anything so it's great on most skin tones. It's also not to prominent or dark so most people could pull it off.

The main thing I loved about this product is that it literally smells of chocolate! I'm not kidding, oh my god, it smells absolutely amazing and I'm in love with it :) I highly recommend.

Benefit They're Real Mascara!

Hey everyone!

I've got another little review but this time it's a Benefit product. I haven't had much benefit products before and I've heard ALOT about this one. It's the Benefit They're Real Mascara.

Now, I guess this product is kind of touch and go and may not be to everyone's liking, like me. I don't LOVE this product. I like it, but I'm not in love with it and I doubt I would purchase it again.

I'm the kind of person who buys heaps of mascara's as I love trying new ones out. I don't often stick to the same one all the time as I go a bit adventurous with them. I find that this mascara doesn't give me much volume and it's more of a natural one. So instead, I wear this mascara on top of another one, to make it look better. I like long voluminous lashes, and I don't find I get that with this mascara.

This might just be what I get, maybe someone else who has this gets amazing lashes. I am in no way saying this is a bad product as most Benefit products are amazing. This is just my personal opinion :)

M•A•C Creme Cup

Hey everyone!

For christmas, I got my first ever MAC product. It's fair to say I have fallen head over heels in love with this and it is now my go to lipstick. I absolutely adore this and I can't get over how beautiful it looks! Why have I never gotten this before?! I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a new go to lipstick or just if they're starting off in MAC makeup like I was.

I've seen nearly every blogger or YouTuber rave about this product and I'm sure about 99% of them have this lipstick and it was a very famous lipstick to begin with, everyone had it! I jumped on the band wagon a bit late and got this. I am so happy that I have it.

It's part of the cremesheen lipstick collection and I think I'm going to like this collection the best as it's also moisturising but without looking glossy. I just can't even fathom how much I love this product! It's so worth the money aswell so if you're worried about budget, just go for it because you won't be disappointed!

Avon Mega Effects Mascara Review!

Hey everyone!

Recently I bought a new mascara (as I always do!) and thought I would do a blog post on it as everyone raves about this quite often. It's the Avon Mega Effects Mascara and it usually retails at around £10 but I got it for £6.99 as it was on sale, which is great!

This is a really good and volumising mascara but sometimes it clumps, which really bugs me as it's so good at lengthening my lashes. I would still recommend this to anyone who likes long lashes though as when you pop another mascara on top, it makes it look fine. For the price I think it's really good too so, try it out!

Lots of love,

Vikki xoxo

The Pointless Book!

Hello bloggers!

 

 

Recently I bought a book from a very special person. If you don't know who Alfie Deyes (PointlessBlog) is, then where have you been? He is an aspiring YouTuber and his channel has been growing so much recently. I am so proud of him and he has come so far since his first videos.

 

He is a great YouTuber and is so dedicated! He has such an amazing personality and is overall a really great guy! His videos are always top notch too.

 

Alfie had been working on a secret project a while ago called The Pointless Project. This project was a book called The Pointless Book.

 

He did a video on it which is here.

 

I pre-ordered this book on Amazon and it arrived when it was released which was in September.

 

I immediately fell in love with this book and it's amazing! I'm so proud of Alfie and how well his book has done. It feels so surreal seeing it in book stores and shops.

 

Here are some of the pages I've filled out already.

 

 

You can order this book of Amazon and I suggest you do! :)

 

 

❤ Have you got Alfie's book? ❤

 

Lots of love,

Vikki

Tea Tree Foaming Face Wash Review!

Hello bloggers!

I've got a little review here for you! It's been one of my favourite products recently and I definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a new skincare product or a new face wash!

This product is the Tea Tree Foaming Face Wash. To clarify, this is absolutely amazing! I'm totally not over exaggerating when I say this, I literally mean it.

I can not get enough of this product and whenever it runs out, I will definitely be buying it again. It was also very cheap, about a few pounds which is great.

To apply:
1. Wet your face
2. Squirt 1-2 pumps onto the palm of your hand
3. Rub in circular motions over your makeup free face and neck
4. Rinse thoroughly
5. Dry face

This product is for daily use and cleansing. I use this before my shower every morning and it's become part of my routine.

This leaves my skin feeling refreshed and cleansed and also soft. I really feel a difference after using this especially over a long period of time. It also stops me breaking out in spots (not that I really do very often)

 

 

❤ What's your favourite skincare product? ❤

 

Lots of love,

Beauty With An Edge || Urban Decay

Hello bloggers!

~beauty with an edge~

 

Recently I bought the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette and I've been meaning to do a blog post on it but just totally put it off, so here it is!

 

This is actually one of my favourite makeup beauty products right now. I know loads of people who say these aren't really shades they would use but they are perfect shades for me.

 

I got this a lot cheaper than what the original price is which was a bargain. It is the only naked palette I have tried so I can't really compare it to any others.

 

I love how there is a mix between shimmery shades and matte shades!

 

My most used shades are Strange, Dust, Limit and Factory.

 

I like to use Strange for my brow bone for a little highlight and the other shades for the lid, outer corner and crease.

 

I haven't used the really dark shades on my eyes as I like to keep it neutral and to be honest, it scares me wearing them shades!

 

I love to use the shade Factory for my eyebrows and it gives a really good finish which I love. It's such a good shade for my brows.

 

 

Strange - Dust - Burnout - Limit

 

Buss - Trick - Nooner - Liar

 

Factory - Mugshot - Darkside - Blackheart

❤ Have you got the Naked 3 Palette? ❤

 

Lots of love,

Give Me A Cuddle || Revlon Colour Rush

Hello bloggers!

~give me a cuddle~

 

This is a lipstick that I put at the back of my makeup drawer and have found again recently. It's a lovely pink shade which is great for the summer, clearly why I've started loving it again!

 

This is quite nice for pale skin but would also look amazing with a tan.

 

It's a little bright when you first put it on so I like to blend it into my lips to make it a little more subtle. It goes well with neutral eyes and not too heavy makeup elsewhere.

 

Overall, I love it and you should buy it! :)

 

❤ What's your favourite lipstick? ❤

 

Lots of love,

Vikki x

Avon Products! #1

 

Hello bloggers!

Recently I bought a couple of products from AVON and decided to do a post on it! I have also ordered more but I'm doing this in 2 different posts! Here is part one! Enjoy! 

1. Avon SuperExtend Liquid Eye Liner - Black

Now this product says its a liquid liner, but as you can see from the pictures it looks more like a pen! Its quite a good product but a bit hard to apply to the waterline as it just seems to rub off!


2. Colour Trend Pressed Powder - Translucent

This is a great product for a cheap price! I haven't used this very much though as I am still obsessed with my Stay Matte Powder!

Lots of love,
Vikki
