T-Zone Blackhead Fighting Facial Scrub with Tea Tree

Product: T-Zone Blackhead Fighting Facial Scrub with Tea Tree

Purpose: Deeply cleanses to clear pores and blackheads

Size: 75ml

Where product was purchased:  Savers

How much the product cost: £1.99

Product review: I don't usually like using facial scrubs because every one I have used before has never done anything to my face and I hated the feeling of it all. However, my face was breaking out with blackheads like crazy and I needed to urgently do something about it.

When I was looking in the shop, the first thing that led me to buy this product was the fact that it claims to use natural anti-bacterial ingredients.

I started using the product straight away. The only negative thing I have to say about this product is that the scent is quite unpleasant. But it is really worth it, this is my 5th month since I started using it and I have noticed a huge change. My skin has looked a lot healthier and much clearer since the day I started using it. I saw small changes straight away when I started using it, but the changes are really obvious in the long-run.

It's cheap and for me is the only product that has worked for me so far. I would really recommend you try this if your face is breaking out with blackheads like mine was.

Pretty In Pink Eau De Parfum by Nuparfums

Product: Pretty in Pink Perfume (Eau de Parfum by Nuparfums)

Scent: Fresh and floral

Size: 100ml

Where product was purchased: Tesco

How much the product cost: £10.00

Product review: This perfume has such a perfect scent. The scent is floral and fresh, meaning that it is a little strong but not strong enough to make you feel sick if you put too much on.

This perfume stays on the skin and clothing for most of the day, which is great for someone who is always on the move.

NIVEA | Light Moisturising Day Cream for Normal & Combination Skin

Product: NIVEA Light Moisturising Day Cream

Purpose: Moisturises & protects for a fresh skin feeling. With Vitamin E & Hydra IQ

Type: Normal & Combination Skin

Size: 50ml

Where product was purchased: Superdrug

How much the product cost: £3.99

Product review: This product has been a huge help for my skin in the past 2 and a half months. I have opted out of using as many heavy duty moisturisers like I used to, as my skin felt like it needed a little bit of a rest. We all know that if you use heavy duty make up and skin products often, you eventually need a break in order to keep your skin and body healthy, The best way to do that is by replacing products included in your daily skin care routine with Nivea products.

My skin has been so much softer since I started using this cream as part of my daily skin routine. I apply it in the morning with all my other products and then again by itself before bed. I have found that my make up looks a lot more natural when I apply this cream to my face before applying my make up. My skin also now has that super healthy look to it, with or without make up, which is absolutely great.

I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. Even if you don't really have time to have a daily skin care routine, just applying this product to your face before bed makes such a difference.



TALIKA | Photo Hydra- Day

Product: TALIKA Photo Hydra-Day

Purpose: Face Specific Hydration

Size: 30ml

Where product was bought: Talika,com

How much the product cost: £30

Product review: This product is probably the best thing I have ever put on my face.

Lately, my face has turned into a combination of oily and dry skin. I have applied this product to my whole face many times in the past few months and I love the way it leaves my skin. It evens my skin out perfectly. The dry parts of my skin don't look or feel dry at all, even after applying heavy duty foundation.

I also love the fact that whenever I have applied this product, my face always has that healthy looking glow to it, with and without the application of make up.

Even though this product is a little pushy on the price, I can easily say that it is totally worth every penny. You don't have to apply a lot of it each time, which makes it last quite a long time.

W7 Butter Kiss Lipstick | Very Berry

Product: W7 Butter Kiss Lipstick

Color: Very Berry

Where product was purchased: W7 Cosmetics

How much did the product cost: £4.50

Product review: The name matches the lipstick perfectly. This lipstick literally applies on to the lips like butter. It is super soft and leaves the lips silky smooth.

The color is extremely vibrant and shiny. I prefer my lipstick to be matte but you can do this by simply applying translucent powder to your lips after applying the lipstick, so it isn't a huge problem.

The only negative side I can see to this lipstick is that due to the fact it feels so similar to butter, it comes off the lips very easily and only leaves a very slight stain. I would definitely advice you to set your lipstick when using this lipstick for a night out or party/event where you may not get the chance to "touch up" as often.

Royal Apothic | Holland Park Cream Creme

Product: Royal Apothic | Holland Park Cream Creme

Where product was bought: www.royalapothic.com

Product review: Not only is the presentation of the product super cute and classy, the actually product is so good on the skin. Whenever I have used this product, I find that the dry parts of my skin literally just disappear.

My skin is a mixture of oily and dry so this product really evens my skin out completely. Not to mention my skin still smells amazing and fresh even hours after application.

Miss Sporty - Pump Up Booster Mascara

Product: Miss Sporty - Pump Up Booster Mascara

Color: Black

Where product was bought: Superdrug

How much did the product cost: £3.99

Product review: This mascara has to be the mascara I use on a daily basis.

I love how this mascara makes my lashes look so much longer and curled. This is great because I hate using lash curlers so this mascara does the trick perfectly.

The only thing I don't like about this mascara is that the brush is quite wide and large, which means I always end up getting some on my eyelid and am also unable to successfully apply this to my lower lashes.

But on a plus note, this mascara does not cause little clamps to form on to the lashes. I love this because I find it rather difficult to find a good mascara that doesn't.
