NEW : CLARINS AQUATIC TREASURES SUMMER MAKE UP COLLECTION


 Instant Light Radiance Boosting Complexion Base* // Summer Bronzing Compact* // Iridescent Eye Shadow *// 

I'm really looking forward to summer and creating some amazing beauty looks using these latest releases from Clarins. 

The Radiance boosting complexion base is perfect for creating a luminous base. It's a moisturiser which hydrates the skin It also has qualities that makes it suitable for sensitive skin and it reduced redness. There's also anti pollution complex to protect the skin. As well as the instant light radiance boosting base i've been using Clarins Summer Bronzing compact for a natural glow. I apply the complexion base all over my face for that glow and to moisturise the skin I then use the bronzing compact to contour. I apply the bronzer to my cheekbones forehead and along the jawbone. The bronzer is really easy to apply and easy to build up. The compact is a really good size, it's really big and there's a mirror inside which makes it really handy.

The eyeshadow is so perfect, its such a gorgeous shade! It's a really nice pink shimmery eyeshadow. It applies so easily and the pigmentation is so good!  This is a perfect addition to my make up bag, it's perfect for travelling as its such a perfect shade and I can just pop it in my make up bag. 

I'm going to do a beauty tutorial soon and will hopefully use some of these products, theres a swatch of the eyeshadow below, 







REVIEW: NARS SHEER GLOW


Nars is one of my all time favourite  brands, I love every single Nars product i've ever tried. I own a vast selection of Nars products from blushers to lipsticks. 

I have wanted to try Sheer Glow for such a long time after reading review after review about it. I have the shade Santa Fe which is a medium shade. I tend to wear a warmer shade than my actual skin tone so this is perfect. 

After shaking the bottle I pour a little product onto the back of my hand and use a buffing brush to apply, you only need  a small amount of product as a little goes a long way. The foundation applies really easily and sinks in really fast into the skin.

Sheer Glow leaves my skin looking clear, the coverage is really good. My skin looks awake and refreshed!  I love the dewy finish of Sheer Glow on my skin. I have quite oily to combination skin and I think Sheer Glow works really well on my skin type. I would say Sheer Glow is more for normal to dry skin as it has added hydrating qualities. I tend to get an oily t-zone by the end of the day however i'm yet to find a foundation that combats my oily skin so I don't mind this.

I really do love Sheer Glow! It's my new day to day foundation, I find it so easy to apply making it perfect for those mornings when you really shouldn't have snoozed the alarm again . It's such a lovely natural looking foundation with amazing coverage and leaves my skin glowing and hydrated.

I will repurchase Sheer Glow, it's my new favourite foundation!  



UPDATE: WHAT A YEAR?


I had a little look on my timehop the other day and it was so strange, I've had my job for a whole year, I work in retail but it got me thinking about how much has changed in a year and also how much i've done in a year!

Since I started my job i've been on 3 holidays one of those being to Florida, i've been to Wales, London, Weston, I've graduated!

It's been such an amazing year! My biggest accomplishment was graduating, I can't believe I got my 2:1 all the hard work paid off ! I really want to go on and get my teaching degree but right now i'm happy just working full time and trying to experience as many things as I can.

We got to go to America which was amazing and totally worth all the stress. We booked it with not much time to save money but it was amazing! We had the most amazing time, I loved Universal and all the shopping!!

We went to London for a blog event and had such a great day! We went on the London Eye and got to be tourists. This time last year we went to Wales and spent the weekend in a cottage and visited Aberyswyth which was so good!

We spent another Christmas and New Year together, birthdays and Valentines day.
We actually spent my 22nd birthday in Gran Canaria which was perfect, we're hoping to go away for my 23rd and we will be in Dublin for Clints 27th birthday next week.

I'm so excited for whats going to happen next, we are looking at booking a holiday for my birthday and then I think we will start to think about finding somewhere to live together. I thought i'd just share a little update with you guys, hope you enjoyed todays post as it's a little different.
