Empties #2
So this is my second ever empties post and I am really excited to be writing this post as I have always been quite bad for not always finishing products. I am the sort of person who jumps from one product to the other a lot of the time – but since having my blog it’s given me a reason to fully finish products and I must say it’s a very satisfying feeling! I can see empties posts becoming a fast favourite of mine to put up here! Plus they are one of my favourite types of blog posts to read (and watch on YouTube). Anyway, onto the empty products!…

What’s in my Birchbox? May 2014
Birchbox this month teamed up with Harper’s Bazaar to create a box that isn’t only beautiful (and isn’t it just?) but also which is designed to “prepare you for a season’s worth of outdoor adventures”. This has to be one of my favourite ever boxes I have received. Birchbox – to me – seem to be getting better and better as time goes on, and this box certainly is proof of that. Birchbox Website. Okay so onto what I got in this Birchbox – the important part! In each box you always get a little card telling you what each item is, how to use it, and how much it…

Bioderma Micelle Solution Face and Eye makeup remover/cleanser
In this post I will be doing a review of the Bioderma Micelle Solution face and eye cleanser* I will start off by saying that I have heard such amazing things about this product from other bloggers and youtubers that when I was given the opportunity to review it from Farmaline I jumped at the chance! In case you haven’t heard about this product, I will give you a quick overview of what it is all about… it’s a non-rinse, fragrance free and soap free cleanser and eye makeup remover (including waterproof makeup), and it really does what it says on the tin (bottle)! I don’t like makeup removers which are…

AreaH2O Shampoo and Conditioner review
In this post I will be doing a review of two products from a brand called AreaH2O, being a shampoo and conditioner duo*. I can honestly say I have never tried a hair care range like this before! I will quote a section from the back of the box, as that explains how this range is different to other ranges out there: “Metal ions, present in all types of water, react with shampoo to form mineral deposits that cling to your hair. AreaH2O shampoo is designed to act as a magnet, attracting mineral ions and allowing you to wash them away far more easily. This means your hair will feel…

Revlon Parfumerie Scented Nail Enamel Review
Today I have something new to share with you all – the brand new line of nail polishes that Revlon have brought out called the Parfumerie Scented Nail Enamels. The packaging for these new nail polishes are super adorable as they all look like mini old fashioned perfume bottles which I really like as they look super pretty while sitting out on the top of your dresser. Each one of these little bottles contains a scented nail polish and each scent is completely individual, along with matching up to the colour it’s paired with. All in all there are 20 different shades to choose from, with a fairly decent range…

BornPretty Jewellery
A few weeks ago I was contacted by the lovely people at BornPrettyStore.com asking me if I would like a couple of pieces of jewellery to review on my blog for you all. Initially I was going to turn them down as my blog was only going to be about beauty products and books, but then after having a look at their website (how cute is their stuff?!) and having a think about it, I think I will occasionally do reviews on jewellery, accessories and other fashion type products, possibly even homeware accessories too, for examples candles! So baring that in mind, and the fact they offered me a coupon…

John Frieda Luxurious Volume Shampoo, Conditioner and Blow-out Spray
In this post I decided to do a review of three products from the John Frieda Luxurious Volume range, being the shampoo*, the conditioner*, and a volumising blow-dry spray* called the “fine to full blow-out spray”. Having tried quite a few of the John Frieda hair products now I am fast becoming quite a big fan of them! You can get more information about these products from the John Frieda website here, or for a link to Boots where you can buy them you can click here 🙂 My favourite product out of these three items would have to be the Fine to full blow-out spray! Normally I avoid sprays…

Tangle Teezer Review
In this post I will be doing a review of one of the best hair tools/brushes that I have ever used. No joke. It’s amazing. When I first heard about the tangle teezer I never felt the need to rush out and buy one and didn’t really understand what all the hype was about, it just looked like a cheap plastic brush with an over enthusiastic price tag so it really didn’t interest me at all… How many times do we get told not to jump to conclusions about products without having tried them? All the time. And do we still do it all the time? All the time. The…

Beverly Hills Formula Perfect White Black Toothpaste review and Giveaway! *Closed*
A while ago I was contacted asking if I would be interested in reviewing a toothpaste from Beverly Hills Formula called Perfect White Black. One of the reasons this appealed to me is that (apart from the fact it is a whitening toothpaste which is always a bonus) this particular whitening toothpaste is completely black in colour, and I really enjoy using new/innovating products. Black toothpaste was not something I was going to pass up the chance to try! As much as I really wanted to try out this toothpaste, when I first took it out the box and looked at it, it was almost slightly intimidating as the toothpaste…
