Video | Update Morning Skincare Routine

Happy Monday guys!

As mentioned in the video, I promised myself that I wouldn't film this video. Only because the "routine" itself hasn't changed, but the products I used in my old video would have been used up and I would have used so many products since then! Oh well, why not?!

Makeup | Soap and Glory's One Heck Of A Blot Powder

You will have seen me mention Soap and Glory's One Heck Of A Blot Powder in my haul video back in March and I have used it in my video about my 'Everyday Smokey Eye'. But I wanted to make an ode to it on a blog post because GAT DAMN THIS IS GOOOOD. LIKE REAL GOOD.

 Soap and Glory's One Heck Of A Blot Powder

I have been using MUFE's HD Powder for roughly a year and a half now and I never found any powders to be just as good. Then my grubby little hands got a hold of this beautimous creature from Soap and Glory.

Before I picked it up, I had actually wanted to try it for ages (because of Essie Button.. but everything I have ever bought is because of Essie Button, lets not lie...) but could not justify buying another powder when I was using one that I got on with so well. However, when it appeared in my staff shop for £1, AND was the last one lying around, I had to quickly snap it up before anyone had even noticed.

I just use my Real Techniques Bold Metal Brush 100 and swipe it across the powder and lightly press the product into my T-zone. It gives an amazing matte veil on your skin, without looking cakey or flat. Just lovely. It's not as heavy as the MUFE one which I think I actually prefer?!! (I hate saying bad things my beloved MUFE powder!) This is definitely going to be another staple for my makeup bag. I reccommend this powder to anyone. Honestly, this is ground breaking stuff guys!


What other powders should I try? Anything as nice as this, or better maybe!? Hook me up in the comments below.


See you tomorrow for a YouTube vid

Makeup | Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze and Glow - THE NEXT BEST THING

If you were expecting me to rave about the perfect bronze and highlighting palette, i.e. Charlotte Tilbury's Filmstar Bronze and Glow, then you are WRONG! (Sorry, don't mean to sound rude...) I'm gonna talk about the next best thing

Sleek Face Contour Kit - Light

This isn't an exact dupe for CT but it is bloody amazing for a drugstore product!

The bronze shade is the perfect shade for contouring; not too grey, not too orange. It adds a good depth and gives your face them cheekbones that you've been longing for. It is definitely darker in shade than CT, even in the light shade, but it isn't noticeable on the skin, especially if you blend it in good and proper! The Sleek shade has shimmer in, which suggests it can also be used at the high points of your face, but not nearly as much as CT. Saying that, I still use both for contouring my face and I love the effect.

The highlight shade is more pink-y than CT but it still looks beautiful; I use it on the tops of my cheeks, down my nose, inner corners of my eyes and on my cupids bow (basically everywhere...). I would say it's not as pigmented as CT but I guess that's the price you pay for drugstore products and I can't complain because the palette has lasted me for aaaaaaages.


Any contour and highlight products I should try out? High-end or drugstore, not too fussed! Comment below your reccs!

Skincare | Aromatherapy Associates Hydrating Rose Mask

A sample that I got ages ago but I should have used it sooner? Check.

Aromatherapy Associates Hydrating Rose Mask

Now, when everybody bangs on about Aromathery Associates, we immediately switch our brains over to one of the most indulgent bathing products our there. The oils. OH GOD THE BEAUTIFUL OILS!
Now, as you can imagine, when I got this sample of this SKINCARE product from AA in an Elle magazine I was a bit like... "errr what is this abnormality? They only make them beautiful bath oils..." So I put off using this sample.... until recently when I noticed it in my many Birchbox bags full of samples....

What I would like from a hydrating face mask:
- not visible, shiny or greasy to the eye when it's on the skin
- plumps out my dry, flakey and crepe-y skin to look smooth
- actually does it's flippin' job

TICK, TICK AND TICK.

I have never tried a hydrating mask that does wonders like this has! It sinks in straight away but it WORKS. Like actually WORK WORK! I thinks it's the hyaluronic acid ingredient that does the job, but as long as it does something to my woeful skin, then I'm not fussed!


Any other masks I should get my hands on? Let me know; I'm a bit pathetic when it comes to face masks so I need help perrr-lease!

Skincare | The Body Shop Vitamin Energizing Face Spritz

Now that we are going in to spring time, I wanted to let you know about a beautimous product that makes everyday that less painful (especially when I have to drive to work for an hour and a half, sit at a desk for 8 hours and then drive home for an hour and a half. Woe is me.....).

The Body Shop Vitamin C Energizing Face Spritz

Energizing is the perfect word for this product; it gives me LIFE!!!
The citrus-y smell is amazing! It's not that "cleaning product" smell, just the perfect amount of orange and lemon goodness. It's aimed at people with dull skin and that's my skin in one word. DULL. So when I pair this with the Una Brennan Super Facialist Vitamin C+ Glow Boost Serum, it gives my face a 'living person' look to it (instead of a 'road-kill' kinda look). 

I urge you all to try this - nothing can go wrong when it's The Body Shop. I have a video on my skincare routine where I mention this spray so give that a watch too.


Any other spray-toners-that-give-you-life purchases I need to make? Let me know your reccs! Otherwise I'll see you on Sunday for another blog post!
