REVIEW | Liz Earle Skin Repair Moisturiser

Liz Earle Skin Repair Moisturiser - £19.25*

I love my Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish, it's my go to cleanser! I always use it in between more intense cleansers so when I was sent this moisturiser to review I was very excited! 

The moisturiser is really light and rubs in really well and quickly into the skin. The moisturiser is full of naturally active ingredients like wheatgerm oil which contains high levels of vitamin E which is a powerful anti-oxident and Glycerin which attracts water so hydrates the skin. 

The moisturiser is suitable for normal/combination skin so it perfect for my skin. I have oily/combination skin and because this moisturiser is so light and hydrating it moisturises my skin without adding any extra oilyness or grease. 

I love the tube it's so easy and more hygienic than the tub thats also available in 50ml for the same price so it's great if you prefer to use a tub rather than a tube like me. I think the tube is really great for me because I stay at my boyfriends so its easy to pack into my make up bag and also I will be bringing this on holiday because its so lightweight. 

I really love this moisturiser and i'm always very impressed with Liz Earle Products I think they are amazing quality and they last for ages. I think £19.25 is rather expensive but its a great quality product and I would repurchase this and recommend it! 

Throughout June Liz Earle are offering free delivery so check out their website here www.lizearle.com

The lovely Wendy introduced us to the Matthew Williamson 'The Rich Is Back'  Its this gorgeous box palette thats exclusive to Debenhams, with 4 eyeshadows, a blusher, a mini they're real and a lipgloss all in one handy box this is your must have for the summer. 

The event started with Wendy showing us the palette and then we all popped our names into a Benefit bag to be in with a chance of winning one of these amazing palettes. 

We were then given the chance to take photos and have a play with the palettes and we were all very lucky to have the lovely ladies from the Benefit counter in Debenhams use the palette to create some amazing eye looks on us. 

After we all got to play and have our eyes done with the palette, we found out who was the lucky raffle winner ! IT WAS ME ! YAY ! I won the palette, it was so exciting ! I love it and I can't wait to have a little play with it and I will definitely be reviewing it very soon. 

We were all given a lovely little goody bag filled with samples of 
Hello flawless primer and foundation, Bad gal lash, Porefessionale, It's potent eye cream, and triple performance moisturiser. 

It was a really lovely event and I'm looking forward to attending more Benefit events! 
Will you be buying this Matthew Williamson Limited Edition Set ?

The Best and Worst High Street Shops




We all have our favourite high street shops as well as those we try to avoid. A great shopping experience doesn’t just involve finding that perfect pair of jeans but also feeling valued as a customer and receiving assistance when we need it. We’ve all been in a situation where the store is messy and overcrowded and the shop assistants are nowhere to be seen - it doesn’t make for a good shopping experience and we probably won’t want to go back there. 
Luckily, the consumer group Which? has compiled a list of the best and worst high street shops of 2013. Ladies fashion store BonmarchĂ© made it into the top five for the first time alongside Richer Sounds, the Disney Store, Lush and the Apple store. BonmarchĂ© also took the number one spot in the ‘Clothing, Shoes and Accessories’ category. The report took into account the whole customer experience from the quality of the products to the assistance given by sales staff.

What have been your best and worst high street shopping experiences this year?

Review | Soap and Glory Sugar Crush Body Buttercream

Soap and Glory Sugar Crush Body Buttercream - £10.50* 

I've been using this Soap and Glory Body Buttercream for about a week and I absolutely love it and couldn't wait to show it to you guys! I have the Sugar Crush Body Scrub which I got in a gift set before christmas and I loved that and this body butter has the same AMAZING !!! LIME SCENT
Seriously it's gorgeous! It's so citrusy and smells really yummy ! 
The cream its self is a nice light cream that rubs into the skin really easily and quickly and leaves the skin feeling cool and moisturised and it doesn't leave your skin feeling sticky.

For £10.50 you get this massive 300ml tub which is really handy to store. I love the soap and glory packaging because its so pretty and pink! I have this tub next to my bed incase I need to pop any cream on and so it's there for when I get out the bath or shower. 

Also in this range is the Body Wash which you can see here. I haven't tried this yet but I will review once i've tried it out! Have you tried any new Soap and Glory products  ?

Review | Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine Nail Paint

THIS IS MY 500TH BLOG POST !
 Shades: Passionfruit // Sour Apple // Guava - £3.99*



I was kindly sent these Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine Nail Paints to review! I love the Gelly range from Barry M. I think the nail polishes are really good because they create this gel- like look and they dry alot quicker than normal Barry M polishes.

The Confetti range from Barry M is available now in superdrug and boots and comes in 5 different shades which you can see here and here. The shade I have is Sour apply, it's a clear top coat with light blue and yellow flicks of confetti in. I think the colours are nice and look great teamed with Barry M Gelly in Guava! The confetti texture isn't 'TOO' texturised as i've found sometimes glittery polishes can be really textured and the flecks get caught on things but this isn't the case with this polish.

Aswell as the Confetti polish I was sent two brand new shades from the Gelly range, Passionfruit and Guava. Passionfruit is a gorgeous orangey/coral/red shade and Guava is a lovely turquoise.

The Gelly polishes apply so nice! They really look like you have Gel overlays. I think they dry really nice and appear really smooth. They dry really quick which is great for me because I hate waiting for my nails to dry. I applied two coats and my nails looked amazing.

I'm abit gutted that the polish did start to chip after 1-2 days but if your like me and change your nail colour all the time it's fine and if you just did little touch ups the polish actually lasts quite well.

I think they shades are great especially for my holiday! They are very summery :) I'm loving the new colours and the confetti range I want the Marsh mellow shade!


You can buy these from boots and superdrug! Theres links above and the polishes retail at £3.99.
