Blog swap!

Heyya guys and gals of the blogosphere, sorry for the late post, I've literally just dragged myself to write this as i'm not well so that's my excuse!
I thought i'd share with you what i received from my blogger swap!
Basically if you don't know what one is it's a swap of beauty, fashion ect items between two bloggers, i found one through a blog called Tales of a pale face//Link and got matched with a girl called jade!
We decided on the limit we could spend on each other was 20 pounds, and the goal was to send them at the end of last month! I got my box full of items this morning so i jumped straight on here illness and all to write this post... yes i'm that devoted guys.
 So here is what the lovely jade got me!

 In my box jade got me;

  • Haribo's
  • Body shop papaya shower gel
  • Body shop strawberry soap
  • Lush bubblegum lip scrub
  • Body shop coconut lip butter
  • 2 face masks
  • Store twenty one earrings 
  • bracelet & ring 
  • Skull bracelet 
Then as if that wasn't enough she also filled a little gift bag with:
  • Mua lipstick in nectar and in shade 13.
  • Avon colour trend lipstick in nude flash
  • 2x gosh lip jams- shades 101 and 105.
  • 17 photo flawless primer

Lancome eye shadow palette!

Heya guys and gals of the blogosphere,  I  received  my eye shadow palette from a girl called Ambar who i did a swap with on the app 'depop' so i thought i'd do a little post on how well they've performed and whether they were worth the swap!

When i received this in the post i did expect it to be bigger but i was by no mean disappointed, all the colours are beautiful, some matte,shimmer and a few metallic.
They are all high in pigmentation and all neutral wearable shades, my favorite so far would be the purple ish/ brown in the bottom right corner of the palette it's not too purple to notice it's just right and i think it's called 'model.'


Overall i'd say this palette was well worth the swap, it had already been lightly used but i was already told this and it wasn't a problem. 
Always remeber when buying online to make sure the products are hygienic otherwise do not buy the items!

Sorry that i haven't been a good blogger this week but i promise to get back into the swing of things this week!

Whats your staple eye shadow colour?

Garnier Facial toner!

Garnier facial toner! this is one of my daily essentials on most days when i decide to give my Liz Earle a break, I bought this from Sainsburys on offer as I thought i'd give it ago because i use the Garnier moisture match moisturizer and had been loving that alot so thinking Garnier where on the ball  i bought this but to my disappointment it didn't do what i wanted it to do, I felt like it dried my skin to much and I just didn't see a difference in my skin when i used it. Although it doesn't appeal to my skin right now i will still use this up in the foreseeable future because it might work when the weather betters and my skins recovered from the dryness the weather has caused so i haven't completely ruled this out.

My Hair care Favorites!

My Hair care Favorites!
I have an obsession for looking after my hair, because i never used to take notice of how much damage i caused it but lately since my hair became dry i decided to take control of my fried mess of hair and did a no heat detox, i can honestly say it helped and now i continue to look after my hair using these products!
so firstly in my favorites is the Tigi bed Urban antidotes which i picked up from TKmaxx for £14.99  this is amazing and smells amazing my only problem with it is that it drys your hair out if you wash your hair alot, like i do, so to deal with this i use the Batiste to spruce up my hair when it needs it, i love the scent, the packaging and the actual product because it refreshes my hair and adds volume which is always a plus i picked this up for  £2.99.
The conditioner i use is herbal essences it has a fruity smell and makes my hair super super soft (i would link it but for some reason it doesn't exist on Google) i got this for a pound from pound land.
Another one of my favorites is the Tigi Shine blaster this stuff is amazing it does what it says it does and makes your hair ultra shiny it's great, i again picked this up from  TKmaxx  for  £7.99
lastly in my hair care favorites is the pro vitamin heat defense spray, this is about 70p from home bargains and pretty much does what it says my only problem with it is that you need to use alot of it but that evens it's self out because it inexpensive and sustainable.

Give me moisture!

Moisture heaven, this guys and gals of the blogoshere is my current favorite night cream! i love this because it has a rich thick texture but doesn't feel like your pores can't breath, it has the nicest smell and although the packaging isn't the most glamorous i still quite like it (because it's green and i love green maybe?)
This cream literally makes your skin feel renewed and freshly hydrated unlike some night creams that make your skin feel greasy and heavy. This little wonder is inexpensive and a must have to any skincare fanatic!

mini haul!

Hey guys! been awhile since i posted because i've been a busy bee lately with going to london, my birthday, brithday shopping which i will do a load of separate posts on ect. i promise to try and get myself together; here goes.
Today i went shopping! firstly i ventured into TkMaxx to see if their was any dainty doll makeup on sale, because if you didn't know already i'm a pale ginger, so thats te makeup i usually tend to wear, it's a makeup range for gingers (or should i say pale skinned people) made by a ginger herself Nicola Roberts, unfortunatly their was none :'( however i did get some mee headphones from their, i didn't know if they were good or not but they caught my eye, so i bought them anyway. They are Iwave eyebuds artist collection-weathered. i don't know who the artist is or what it represents i just thought they looked good and for £4.99 i couldn't complain.
The second shop i explored was superdrug just for a nose around, and i spotted The Good Things cleansers, again i knew nothing about them but i thought I'd give it ago, i was lucky enough to see that these were 49p, crazy i know when they retail for £4.99 i got an amazing deal :') which i was very proud of, this profuct was in a discouted area just in the skincare section alone, so i'm not aware of any defects in the product. i then went to pound land after i read on another bloggers blog they were selling sleek lipsticks, and i found two of a nice colour and decided to buy them, the first one is im the colour organza which is a middle darkish pink and the second in satin which is like a brownish baby pink they're both lovely on and i shall do a separate post on how they go. I went into boots after that and splashed on a real techniques base brush because i need one this wasn't a bargin sadly i paid the full amount of £9.99 but the brush's from what i've heard are well worth it. Lastely i went to the body shop and got a sweet lemon scrub, only because it was discouted to £5 and i then had a voucher for a further 40% so o got the scrub for £3! amazing i know, i bought this for my mum originally but then i realised how good it smelt and well we're sharing it now, haha.
any more information you'd like to know leave a comment.
