Tweet I am having the least sleep and rest EVER, and it might have something to do with a little butterball! Anyway I am noticing dark circles, fine lines and dark circles appearing extra fast. Whilst I try and find an super charged eye cream, I am also all about the concealing at the moment. I spotted this super cute set from The Face Shop and had to buy – a Bye Bye Dark Circle Concealer which comes in {Read More}
Tweet EX1 Cosmetics is a range of make up created by Farah Naz, who is British Asian, and wanted to create a range of products suitable for ‘exotic’ skintones after being frustrated at what the high street had to offer. The brand uses the term ‘exotic’, and by that, they are meaning Asian (which in the UK tends to refer to Indian and Pakistani races), Middle/Far-Eastern or Mediterranean complexions. We are talking about quite a specific colour group, from golden {Read More}
Tweet Months and months ago Becca had an online sale and I purchased some loose powder and these Pressed Shimmer Powder Compacts – they are actually due to be discontinued so are still half price at the moment (£15). They say: A delicately fine shimmer powder that lights up the complexion, illuminating darkened areas and lackluster skin and creating a magical glow that emanates from within. I am a real fan of Becca products – I think they have a {Read More}
Tweet I am not the biggest fan of face powders in general – I hate anything that looks cakey on the face and sometimes, I find it can make my dry patches look worse. If I had to use any powder, then I prefer Chanel for loose powder and MAC Careblend Powder (pressed) is also excellent. For my wedding I used a completely different powder though! Sisley’s Phyto-Poudre Compacte comes in 3 variations: 00 – Irisee – (Satin finish) 01 {Read More}
Tweet The thing about a brand as big as Etude House (Korean) is that they sort of think of sub brands that cater for everything. One of the newest ranges that caught my eye was Sun Prise, a range of sun protection products. The range has a high SPF of 50 and is more beauty related than normal sun products. I got 2 items, the Smooth Primer and Fresh Sun Powder from eBay: How cute is the packaging?! The cartoon {Read More}
Tweet It’s nearly summer – although you can’t tell from the RAIN outside. My skin is still as dry as anything but as it warms up, I find more and more use for pretty powders. I purchased 2 powders from Skinfood a while ago but have only just had the chance to open them to give them a go! They are both sunny themed – one is a bronzer (pretty rare where Korean or indeed Asian brands are concerned) and {Read More}
Tweet I actually hauled this about 3 months ago when I was feeling saucy (although admittedly my attempts at ‘Frugal April’ have been some what thwarted by my renewed addition to Chai Tea Lattes, my hunt for summer dresses because there were 2 WHOLE sunny days and fresh addiction to Jill Stuart make up). Side note: Speaking of Jill Stuart – any ladies ordered from Hong Kong lately? Because I have a ton of packages that are taking an unnaturally {Read More}
Tweet Everyone knows that Fairy Drops makes fierce mascara with the funny brush but did you know they also have a range of lip glosses and powders?! Neither did I! (What you did? Shush). Fairy Drops Vanilla Puff powders come in these annoying pot things where you tap it to get the product to travel through to the puff. These are supposed to be handy, I find them damn annoying and bulky. Anyway here it is – it comes in {Read More}
