REVIEW: Avene Gentle Gel Cleanser

Buy here
As you may know, I am obsessed with skincare, it is definitely my favourite thing to splash out on, and I'm always picking up new bits and pieces. I have been wanting a new cleanser that would gently cleanse my face without completely stripping it, so I turned to Avene. For the past few years I have been using French skincare brands religiously. Brands like La Roche-Posay, Caudalie, Bioderma and Vichy are amongst my favourites, but I'd never tried Avene before, and I've been wanting to give them a go for ages.

REVIEW: Soap and Glory Thick and Fast Super Volume mascara!

£10.00 Buy here
When it comes to my eyelashes, volume is the main thing I want and I have tried many mascaras which continually let me down in this department, yes, some of them do make my lashes look nice, but just not in the way I want. This mascara, however, is different. It has a bristle brush, which I love as I have never really been a fan of plastic mascara wands, I just don't think they do much for me.The wand is quite big and seems to pick up just the right amount of product to build volume but not clump up your lashes. I also really like the actual formula of this mascara, it's very black and isn't too wet or too dry and it doesn't leave that hard, sort of crispy feeling on my lashes.

REVIEW: Natural Collection products!

I personally love a bargain and when I first tried Natural Collection a few years back I was pleasantly surprised by just how good this brand is! This brand is available from boots in the UK and I believe all the products in the brand cost £1.99

I personally think the stand out products from this brand are their moisture shine lipsticks, I currently have two shades, Apple Blossom, which is a pale peachy pink colour, and Raspberry, which is a bright pinky red colour, both these shades are very pigmented and either contains any shimmer (which I am personally very happy about!), although, if you do like shimmer in your lipsticks, the range includes some shimmery shades too. They are comfortable to wear and have a good lasting power considering they are moisturising. The best part is that these lipsticks are only £1.99!
