Fragrance Direct Haul ♥



I don't know how to stop myself from buying from Fragrance Direct. it's all so cheap!
I have been able to use all of these products for a couple of weeks now so I can tell you what I think of them. 
The Essie polishes are as good as ever and there was a really wide range of colours at the time I placed my order. I love all of these colours and they last so long, I still can't believe they are only £1.99! 
The W7 fluffy brush is amazing, I have been using it for my face powder. I've never used such a soft brush before, I will definitely be trying some more of the W7 brushes in the future, they are really high quality.
I really didn't need to buy another mascara but I am glad I bought this one, it stays put all day and the wand is great, it helps curl my eyelashes into a nice shape and doesn't make them look clumpy. 
Finally the new Scandaleyes eyeliner, I bought this purely because the felt nib looked so precise. This eyeliner is good but not with eyeshadow underneath, it seems to run out of colour as soon as it touches it, which is annoying, however on its own it works nicely and I can create very fine lines and flicks. 
I hope you are all having a good week! xo

April Favourites


Hello everyone (:
I hope you have all had a good week so far, I have had a couple days off so I thought it would be a perfect time to catch up on some YouTube videos and write a couple blog posts, so here is my April Favourites!
I have a Superdrug haul coming up soon which includes a few of these products, so keep your eyes peeled for that! 

Cath Kidston Hand Cream: I have written about this hand cream here if you want to know more about it, I absolutely love it, I can definitely say it is my favourite hand cream, my hands have been pretty dry recently and this has been brilliant!

Tresemme Platinum Strength: I haven't had my hair cut in about a year now as I am growing it, so I was feeling like it needed a bit of a lift. I seen this new Tresemme shampoo and conditioner featured on Superdrug's website and then I realised it was 3 for £10 on selected products in this new range, so quickly added them to my basket, my hair definitely looks and feels softer after using this shampoo and conditioner.

MUA Undress Me Too palette: I have reviewed this palette here, it has been my go to palette for this month, I love all the colours and I can create so many different looks from it! The shimmer shadows are very very pigmented, the matt shadows aren't as vibrant but are buildable, I love it!

Rimmel 702 Marshmallow Heaven: I have been in quite a 'Spring' mood recently so I am loving pastel colours, this polish is very fast drying and long wearing which I can't seem to find in a few of my Essie polishes, which is annoying because I love their pastel colours!:(

Estee Lauder Trio: I have had this trio for quite a while now and as you can see I have hit pan on the bronzer, but I have been mixing the middle colour with what is left of the brown and it has been making a lovely shade for my cheeks.

Witch Anti Blemish Primer: This primer is amazing! I will definitely be reviewing it, it brightens up your face and definitely clears up any marks from spots and I haven't had a breakout since using it.

Cosmopolitan Beauty Blender: Finally, I bought the cheaper alternative to the much raved about Beauty Blender, I have to say I am amazed at how good it is! When I apply my foundation, it looks airbrushed and even all over my face, I cannot praise this sponge enough!

What are your favourites this month?:)

Rimmel Silky Loose Face Powder

I have been looking for a loose powder for a while now, I know my mum uses a bare minerals one which always looks good on her skin but I just hadn't got round to buying it yet. I was going on the other day to my mum about needing a new powder and she said she had never used this Rimmel one and I could have it, I am so glad she gave me it because I loooove it!
I use powder all the time as I like the finished look of it and because I sometimes get an slightly oily t-zone which I touch up throughout the day, but most powders I have tried look cakey and draw attention to the fact you are wearing makeup. 
This product is so lightweight and adds a shimmery soft look to your face which I really like, it definitely brings out your features a lot more than a basic powder. I use this after my foundation has sunk into my skin, don't use it straight after applying foundation as this makes it look cakey. I use it in the shade 001 Transparent. I would highly recommend trying this product, for £6/7 it isn't too bad.

What loose powders would you recommend?
