Hit&Miss- Revlon colour stay Review!
Heya guys and gals of the blogosphere, i have saw so many people rave about this foundation so when my mum offered to let me have hers since it wasn't a good colour match and she just generally didn't like the product, i jumped at the chance. My first impressions were that i loved it. It sat nicely on my skin and for an ubber pale girl the colour match was also pretty good after i'd buffed it in with my real techniques expert face brush and i was good to go. I found it didn't separate when i had blusher & highlighter on top, in fact aside from the fact it was abit to matte for me i thought it was amazing. Then i went away from the week (to wales to stay with my auntie) and my skin reacted so badly to it, it began to look cakey and cause me to breakout and my skin still isn't fully recovered, from going from a perfect to an awful product i was so disappointed. and i decided i defiantly won't be buying or using this product again.
I'd like to mention Anna from 'A spread of nutella'//Link she nominated me for the liebster award so i thought she'd like a little mention, so go check her out!
Have you had any disappointing products lately?

Vintage Fair;Review&purchases...
Heya guys and gals of the blogosphere, yesterday i went to a small vintage fair so i decided to give you lovely readers the low down on what i thought about it and what i purchased.[Beware this post will be full of pictures!]
The place this was held is called Kenyon hall farm//Link inside the building their is a cafe & the farm shop ( Both very over priced.) Outside was green houses and a field to go strawberry/berry picking. The vintage fair was held inside the farms barn which i personally really did like, it added something unique to the fair (bales of hay make a difference in 'Amy's world' you see.)
The fair wasn't excautly 'vintage' it was more a mixture of crafts stalls and a few vintage stalls through in the mix, so i was kind of disappointed; However the stalls that were their i did have a nosy through. All the people selling were friendly that i spoke to and a few i did find intimidating and under some sort of pressure to buy after I've browsed which sadly couldn't happen on every stall i looked at.
Overall i'd say this fair earned a fair (see what i did their...yeah i'm not funny..just stop Amy.) 6/10.

I didn't buy alot whilst i was their because well like i said it wasn't overly vintage, but i did pick up some little gems!
I picked up to vintage handcrafted wall plaques/hangings for a pound each. They are the cutest, the goose one reminded me of Percy the goose from the pond over the road from my house (he's adorable) and the heart i just thought would look on my bedroom door; I also picked up a gorgeous bath bomb which just has the nicest,strongest scent. I will do a review on it to see if i like it better than my lush favorites!
Finally, the main reason i wanted to do this post, i picked up a vintage lamp...it's beautiful...very grandma styled i know, but i'll make it work somehow. I was amazed to see this gem was only 3 pound! so i snapped it up with my boyfriend stood watching being very skeptical about what i was going to do with it, other peoples opinions aside, I love it.

Zuri face mask review!
Heya guys and gals of the blogosphere! You may have already saw this product featured in my fragrance direct haul, since I've used it a handful of times i decided to give it a full review.

| Zuri Brightening skin renew mask. |
What is the brand 'Zuri.'
I didn't know about this brand until i spotted it on fragrance direct, and me being a magpie to skin products i decided to order it, when i researched into it i found it was a brand that is part of sleek makeup knowing this and only this i didn't really have big aspirations for this product because  of the limited information i could find out.
Zuri claims.
' A multi-purpose product that purifies and mattifies the skin by absorbing sebum as well as skins impurity's. The alga light, an algae extract, is a skin brightening agent derived from red algae. It controls UV induced darkening by suppressing factors that allow processes to occur. The mask also possesses microbial properties, and is also highly moisturizing.'
How i found it.
The Zuri face mask has become one of my main ingredients to healthy skin, when i first tried this product i didn't see an improvement in my skin at all besides a boost of moisture but after a few uses of this product i completely fell in love with it. I find it does pretty much excautly as it says on the box; However i do not think it prevents brake outs, but i do think that it reduces redness and helps get rid of existing spots.
This face mask defiantly brightens, mattifies and hydrates the skin. I would defiantly buy it again as it's a beauty bargain must have for your skin!
You can find this at Fragrance Direct for 2.99
Have you tried anything new lately?
