Haul time :) :)

Hello all so I thought I would show you a small haul I got over the weekend.






First I will start with New Look As some as you may know at the moment im into crosses and skulls :)



I got these lovely earrings with crosses on they also have a spike on the end and a little bead that when it catches the sun has a rainbow effect.



Then got these earrings that also have crosses and a spike,heart and a feather these look stunning on :)



Then I could not resist this cross ring



And this is a skull necklace on a 18 inch chain






I love wearing cord bracelets in the summer so I just had to get this as you can see there are skulls. So thats all I got from New look.



I then when to TKMAXX and picked up this new CID cosmetics I-shimmer



It comes with too ends so on one end you get your highlighter product



And the other end has this soft blending blush



This is a swatch of the highlighter on my hand it's gorgeous.



Then the last place I went to was Aldi as I've heard a lot about the Lacura range they stock as people have been raving about them so I thought I would give them a go.






So the first thing I got was the Lacura Q10 night cream Anti-wrinkle.
For the price this is amazing. First time I used this I was like WOW this made my skin feel so soft and smooth :) its a quite thick consistency you only need a little bit as a little go's a long way. This says on the box for all skin types and I have got super sensitive skin so I was a bit shall I get it or not but I'm so glad I do because I love it and it has not broke me out at all.



Next Lacura thing I got from Aldi was this shimmering day cream this is for normal and sensitive skin. I also love this it has a lovely shimmer to it that looks fantastic under your foundation and this smells sooo yummy :) smells just like the EOS lip balm in summer fruits and for all of you that have not tried the EOS lip balm this smells just like peach snaps mmmm :) again for the price this is amazing they had other skin care Lacura products that I'm gonna have to go back for :)



This is what the shimmering day cream looks like I just put 1 pump on my hand.



And this is it rubbed into my had its so shimmery and lovely but this photo does not give it justice.









The nxt thing from Aldi in the Lacura range I picked up was an eyeshadow Duo in 302 purple I love the packaging it's so sleek.



Here are the two colours on my arm these are so soft and look so pretty on. And they also did more duo colours so I'm gonna get them too.



And the last thing I got from Aldi in the Lacura range was a mascara I made the mistake of getting brown as I only use black but for the price I am amazed it did not flake or clump. And as you all know I'm always buying mascaras as I'm yet to find the perfect one!! But this one blew me away it really gave my lashes volume.



Here is the brush it's quite a big brush I tend to go for the thin brushes but I love this one. So yes some times it's good to try out cheap brands. I'm so glad I did now.
So please if you love your makeup or face care products and you haven't tried Lacura in Aldi go and try some out there just fantastic.

Aromatherapy Associates Review on there Introductory set anti-age

Hello everyone today I have got another review for you.
So I was kindly sent the introductory set (anti-age) from Aromatherapy Associates.
And as always this will be a honest review.
So that's get onto the products.




It came In this box








All the products came in this lovely zip bag with Aromatherapy Associates on the zip tag.




And in side this is what I got as you can see one bottle at the front was empty that because It broke in the post :(
Right now on to each product.....




First this is the instant skin firming serum you get a 5ml this is what the product claims it does.... Restore firmness and radiance in a flash with this fast acting,protective serum. Formulated to target fine lines. Plump up your skin with larch and marine algae extracts for natural collagen production and to tighten the skin. Rejuvenating pomegranate seed extracts to protect from the environmental damage. Our powerful and effective anti-age skin are uses innovative natural ingredients for maximum results.

My honest review
I used this morning and night after cleansing and toning. This like every single product in this set smells gorgeous and this left my skin so radiant and leaves your skin feeling toned and tight this is just an amazing product I really enjoyed using it.




Next up is this overnight repair mask this is a 5ml and this is what the company clams this mask does.....
An intense treatment to tighten and smooth.
Let the potent botanical extracts go to work while you get your beauty sleep.
Frankincense,rose and strawberry seed extracts feed your skin with rich fatty acids.
Designed to restore moisture and encourage natural collagen.
Nourishing oils of rice germ and millet seed help protect against environmental damage.

My honest review on this mask
Again smells amazing :) I use this twice a week you can put this on and leave for 2 hours then rinse off but I use it as a overnight treatment as I find the smell of it helps me sleep. When I wake up in the morning after applying it that night my face looks and feels amazing so soft and smooth again I would recommend this product for people with very dry skin too it's amazing.




Next is the rich repair nourishing cream this in the set is a 5ml
Again this is what the company say about this product...
Renew your skins vitality with intensely moisturising rainfall botanicals.
Fair traded inca inchi oil from Peru is one of the worlds richest plant sources of omega 3s
Cell-stimulating rose,patchouli and frankincense encourages natural cell renewal.
Soften and smooth the appearance of fine lines.

My honest review on this cream
Once again the smell is just amazing :) I use this every morning and night this is so moisturising and this as also really softened my skin and this might sound strange but it feels really cooling on the skin the cream is so rich and gorgeous I really love this cream and it's also great for my dry skin. My skin loves this nourishing cream :)









Next is this rich repair eye cream in this set you get 3ml
So this is what the company say about this eye cream....
Maintain a plump,radiant quality to the area wrong your eyes.
Shea butter and rose wax help replenish your skins natural moisture barrier.
Baobab extract,from Africa's 'tree of life' works to restore elasticity.
Arctic strawberry work on suppleness, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines.

My Honest review on this eye cream
Again this smells amazing. Again I used mine morning and night I really enjoyed this eye cream I think it's one of the best eye creams I've ever used its so soothing and it absorbs very quickly and does not leave a greasy or heavy felling around your eyes at all. If you have tried like me loads of eye creams and have not found the right one for you then give this one a go as I've said I've tried loads in the past but this is the best one I've ever tried AMAZING.




The next on I go in the set is called fine line face oil and this was 3ml
So let's see what the company claims this does....
A super-rich treatment to diminish the appearance of fine lines.
Contains anti-ageing extracts of evening primrose and ximenia, a wild African plum,both high in essential fatty acids.
Full of essential oils of rose,patchouli and ylang-ylang which encourages healthy,glowing skin.
Apple seed and raspberry seed oils help natural collagen ,softening the look of fine lines.

My honest review of this fine line face oil.....
Again smells amazing. Now when it comes to face oil I get so scared because most oils in the past have broke me out due to the oils have left me with greasy film :(
But I tried it and I'm in love this product is great it's so so light and not greasy at all and it does plump the skin and make my skin look radiant. I really enjoyed using this oil and it didn't even brake me out which is always a good thing :)








Next in the set you get an 3ml of intensive skin treatment oil.
Now I won't be able to do a review on this because sadly this broke on its way in the post to me which is a shame all I can say on this oil is that it smelt amazing because it had leaked you can still smell it in the box and it the zip case :)

Ok so that was my review of the Introductory set (anti-age) online this retails for £31.50 and I think it's a fabulous trail size set.

Review on Liz Earle Gentle Face Exfoliator

Hello everyone I hope you are all enjoying the lovely weather we have been having in the uk it's beautiful for a change lol
I'm sat in the garden catching some rays as I write this blog post :)
So on to the review: so I was kindly sent the Liz Earle gentle face Exfoliator and as you all know by now I'm very honest with my reviews :)
So here is a pic of what I got sent




And with all of Liz Earle products they come wrapped up like this




Which I think is such a lovely touch :)




This is what the gentle face Exfoliator looks like on the back of my hand.
I received this about 3 weeks ago.

What the company Liz Earle say about this product......
This kind facial Exfoliator for blocked pores and congested or flaky skin gently sloughs away dead skin cells and impurities for cleaner,brighter and smoother skin. Contains purifying butter and specially selected fine jojoba beads.

My Honest Review
When I first got this I did not read the bottle very well it says not suitable for sensitive skin and now i have really really sensitive skin so I panicked a bit but I had no problems with this at all it didn't break me out at all :) I think my skin really loves this Exfoliator as its made my skin look brighter and feel a lot smoother and also I have very dry flakey skin and it made my skin just beam and took away my flakey skin :)
I first used this 3 times a week but I've now cut it down to twice a week I'm lovely this product so much and the smell of this Exfoliator is just Devine it has even got rid of the nasty black heads I had on my nose so I would really recommend this Exfoliator for anyone with flakey skin and for anyone who as a problem with black heads :) so if you want a brighter smoother skin this is for you. I can see why this is a award winner :)
Now on to the price
70ml pump £13.00

Best Body Scrub EVER!!!!!!!

Hello ladies today I'm going to talk about a new found love :)
Yes I'm talking about the best ever body scrub the Soap&Glory Sugar Crush I brought it 2 woks ago now and WOW I must so I'm very very impressed.






To begin with the packaging is so girly and beautiful just like all the other Soap&Glory products.



This is what it looks like believe me a little go's a long way with this :)
The smell of this is just amazing it's got a nice strong lime smell it's gorgeous.
Now I have very sensitive skin on my face and body so I'm always a bit weary of body sugar scrubs but there was no need to worry with this one at all the grains are small in this scrub so it didn't scratch my legs to bits like other scrubs that I've used in the past :) it makes my skin feel silky smooth and also I found that it moisturised my skin which I was over the moon about because past scrubs have dried out my skin but this is just Amazing best scrub I've EVER used.

So would I recommend this product!!!!!! HELL YESSSSS so if you haven't found the best body scrub to suit you then you MUST give this ago I promise you that you will not be disappointed and I would also highly recommend it for Sensitive skin.

Thanks so much for reading this post :)
Have you tried this ? If so did you love it as much as I did?
