Makeup | NARS Mutiple in Orgasm

I thought, seeing as I mentioned this beauty of a product in my "Changing Up My Makeup for Summer/Shopping My Stash!" post, I would delve a bit deeper in to an explanation of why I love it. Lets go!


NARS Multiple in Orgasm

 

Apologies for the extremely dry hands, but can you see the beautiful golden shimmer that it gives off! It's the perfect creamy blusher for the Summer; it gives that summer glow in one, enough shimmer to grab attention and the application is a dream.

It's a blue-toned pink blusher with golden shimmer running through it. I would say it's perfect for all skintones, but it may lean towards more olive-toned people because the golden shimmer will suit the skin colour better and the blue undertones will make the blusher pop against the skin.

The way I apply this is swipe a couple of times straight on to the cheeks and blend in with my fingers, or I sometimes swipe/dab my Real Techniques Stippling Brush across the top and stipple on to my cheeks (however, I do prefer the first option).

As mentioned in my "Changing Up My Makeup for Summer/Shopping My Stash!" post, the NARS mutiple is just a handy on-the-go/travel/top-up kind of product that you can pop in your makeup bag. It's exactly how the powder version looks on the skin, but more creamy in texture (which I perfer for the Summer).


Any other shades that you've tried? I have a couple of the NARS Mutiples, one of them I've have for years (literally) and the other one is an awful colour and has huge chunks of glitter running through it, which is a bitch to get off.. So I haven't used that since I bought it... Oops..


Hope you enjoyed this review! Make sure to keep an eye out tomorrow for another video on my YouTube channel (I might have done a bit of skincare shopping!) and make sure to follow me on Twitter and Instagram @abbylawbeauty.


Thanks for taking the time to read my post :)

Skincare | Omorizca Thermal Cleansing Balm

Yay or Nay? I'm afraid it's a Nay from me.... Read on to find out why


Omorizca Thermal Cleansing Balm

I have never been disapointed in a skincare product before. There's been a couple of things where I'm like "meh" but there hasn't been anything that I'm completely upset about because it didn't work for me... (I'm over it now, don't worry).
 

Formula: A balm with parts of mud/clay in which dissapear when rubbed in to the skin and turns in to a oily formula
Application: Rub in to skin to remove make up/use as a second cleanse
When: Evening skincare routine
Do I love?: NO. Complete and utter no
Anything I would change: Well, I guess it would have to be the formula! Leaves an oily film over my skin, even after I've washed it off with a flannel. It does not remove eye makeup at all, so I would have to use a separate eye make up remover
Price: £46 for 50ml. Omorizca are known as a premium skincare brand due to the source of the ingredients in their products


As you can see from above, this completely does not work for me! It doesn't remove my eye makeup (so can't tell if it has taken off my face makeup well either) and leaves an oily film, so I have to use another oily cleanser to take this weird oily-ness off my skin. 

Am I using it wrong? What are your experiences with this cleanser? I was really hoping this would work for me as I've heard rave reviews about it! Sad times :(


Anyway, apologies for a disapointing product post, but tbh, I'd like to know how you guys use it and if it is effective. For now I will stick to The Body Shop Chamomile Cleansing Oil or the Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish.



See you tomorrow for a May Faves video over on my Youtube channel!

Makeup | Benefit Watt's Up Highlighter

Charlotte Tilbury's Filmstar Bronze and Glow highlight powder in a cream formula? This is your answer


Benefit Watt's Up Highlighter

Look at the beautiful golden shimmery-ness! It is the most gorgeous creamy highlighter to use; I put it on the tops of my cheekbones, down the centre of my nose and on top of my cupids bow. It gives that "candlelight", lit from within look to my skin (as CT describers her Filmstar Bronze and Glow highlight powder). 
I actually got this in the Benefit beauty advent calendar from Christmas 2014. It's in a dinky tiny sample size, but it makes it perfect for using on my face as it's the perfect size; it's not too big for the different areas of my face.

The full size is £24.50 with a sponge on the other end to blend it in with. I use my fingers to blend it and it's such an effortless product to use. I would definitely be tempted to buy the full size, but I think this dinky one is still going to last me a while! 


Another creamy highlight product I love to use is the Topshop Beauty Glow Pot in Polished. But this is blog post for another day!


What highlighters do you guys like to use? Highend or drugstore, I would love to see what other options there are out there. I don't think there are many highlight products in the beauty market that people talk highly of! So let me know your thoughts!



See you tomorrow for a Youtube video!

Skincare | Oskia Renaissance Cleansing Gel

MAYDAY! MAYDAY! It's May!!!

Guys, I went to Bicester Village yesterday... And I'm pleased to announce that I spent under £100!!! Can I get a round of applause?! *pats self on back* What a miracle ey!
BUT... I am actually contemplating going back today because I left some amazing Kooples shoes behind that were a great bargain.... and some Mui Miu sunglasses... oops!


Anyway, lets talks about a new skincare fave from April...

Oskia Renaissance Cleansing Gel

Apologies for the dry hands.... I got them from my momma

Formula: An orange coloured gel like consistency when it comes from the pump dispenser which turns in to an oily consistency when it is rubbed in to the skin
Application: I squeeze two pumps (one isn't enough for my massive face) and start rubbing in to dry skin. This is when it starts turning oily. The delicious smell is released to your nasal region and you can't help but inhale!
When: Morning and evening (only for a second cleanse). Then straight in with the skincare routine
What does it do: Removes the gunk(!!) from my face and doesn't leave it stripped at all.
Do I love?: YES. A new favourite cleanser that requires repurchasing.
Anything I would change: Packaging. Completely white, do not know when I'm going to run out!
Price: £28 from Cult Beauty

Okay, so it's not the cheapest cleanser there is, and there are some that I love that are like less than half the price. But the fact that it smells amazing (not like that should matter, but obviously it does....) and I get on the with the formula so well, it's okay to spend a little more on something you enjoy using - it's not like it's a £80 cleanser!


Anyone else tried this? What are your opinions? Worth the price tag? Let me know! If you have alternatives, let me know down below too!

  

See you tomorrow for a video of my April Favourites where I will talk about this cleanser in a bit more depth!
