July Favourites


Loreal Super Liner Perfect Slim (£6.99)

When I saw this for just £3.99 in Superdrug I jumped at the chance to buy it - Loreal's perfect slim allows me to create a mess free line on my upper lash line in one quick motion, making it a complete winner in my eyes.

Look Double Hit Lip in Rose Riot (£8.00)

This is a great little three in one product which allows you to experiment with a few different lip looks, I love the colour of this and cant wait to try even more shades!

Clean and Clear Dual Moisturiser (£2.00/100ml)

I posted the other day about how much I loved this product, Its a great moisturiser and a total steal at just £2! 

Angelica Hydration Cream (£29.00/50ml)

I got this in Glamour months ago, and think its amazing - Although I didn't think I could quite take spending that much on a moisturiser when the clean and clear one works out £28.00 cheaper per 100ml!

MUA Heaven and Earth palette (£4.00)

I have used this pretty much everyday for the past month, I think it's great and such a bargain at just £4.00, I think everyone should have one of these little palettes in their make up bag!

Look Loud Lips in Toffee Cup (£7.00) 

I love this shade, It is the perfect mix between brown and pink! Such a lovely packaging design for a high street product!

Look Flawless Fix BB Foundation in light (£10.00)

Yet another Look beauty product! I've been using this daily and love the way it leaves my skin - A must have in my make up bag!

July Empties


I'm a nightmare when it comes to using up products, generally I get about 3/4 of the way down the tube and think 'I'll save that' - as a result end up buying too many new products, without the room to store them. So I figured monthly empties posts will (hopefully) help with that problem. 


Travel size Soap & Glory Flake away (£2.50)

This is something I've had sitting around for ages after receiving it in a gift set, last week I finally decided to try it and I am in love. Flake away leaves my skin feeling amazing! I love the smell of it and I definitely think I'll be buying the full size which is great value at £7.00 for 300ml of product.

Dove hair care shampoo and conditioner (£2.49) 

I'm a big fan of Dove's hair care range since trying their 'Oil care express treatment conditioner'  last year, I love everything about the nourishing oils range and regularly use the shampoo and conditioner. Although above is pictured a shampoo from the 'silk and sleek' range as the shampoo wasn't in stock, It did a good job although I have remained loyal to my beloved nourishing oils and have already repurchased the shampoo and conditioner. 

Herbal Essences Beautiful Ends Mask (£3.99)

I brought this a while ago when it was on offer in Superdrug, It smelt lovely although I cant say I feel it did much for my hair and therefore I wont be repurchasing any time soon.

Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Lotion (£3.77)

Everyone seems to rave about this product although I honestly cant see why. It was lovely to apply, although I didn't feel like it was doing anything for my skin. I didn't feel like it was worth the £3.77 because I finished the bottle so so quickly - and half of it was stuck in the bottom because of the rubbish bottle design!

Natural Collection Wild Strawberry Shower Cream (£2.00)

I never stick to one shower gel, So its a miracle that I finished this one! I thought that it was okay, the smell is very artificially sweet, it was nice in the shower, although it didn't stick around at all on the skin at all. I think I'd like to try more scents from the Natural collection as I thought this was good value for money.

Marie Claire freebie!

I tried my hardest to resist this freebie after buying way to many magazines this month - Honest! But today I finally gave in and decided I needed a treat in the form of the Body Shop's lip and cheek stain!

Sadly my local newsagents only had 'Bronze Glimmer' left, although I was really lusting after 'Rose pink'. I still picked it up though - Because it was a total bargin at £3.70!

'Bronze Glimmer' is probally the shade I've heard less about in terms of blogging (Because everyone went out and brought rose pink! Thanks guys.)
I wouldnt say this shade looks pratically bronze outside of the tube, Infact the colour reminds me of my Peach Parfait lip butter - only with about twenty times more gold glitter, Not the best look in the world..
I wouldnt dare wear this on my cheeks in fear that I'd be scubbing off glitter for the next three months, But on the right skin tone i'm sure this would look lovely. You can still pick this up in Junes Issue of Marie Claire magazine for just £3.70, I also spotted that next months freebie was worth looking out for:
