Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation & Concealer // Review

Hello!

If you have read my previous post, then you will know that the Nars Sheer Glow foundation is my current favourite base product. I am absolutely head over heels for it, however due to the high cost of the Sheer Glow, i have been using other foundations so that the Sheer Glow lasts a little bit longer!

After watching Kelly on Snapchat ( go follow her at kellycpeel if you are not already!) and hearing her singing the praises of Rimmel's Match Perfection Foundation, i decided to give it a whirl. Rimmel is one of my all time favourite high street beauty brands (i hate the word drugstore... haha) and whenever i'm browsing the Rimmel stand at Boots, i always end up walking away with something - usually a lipstick!

The shade range of the foundation isn't very extensive but in the end i chose 103 True Ivory. I bought this shade as i find that foundations can oxidise on your skin and go darker when applied. True Ivory was a safe choice and it is a good match for my skin tone. It definitely oxidises on my skin, so if you are looking for a very light shade, i wouldn't recommend True Ivory as it is not as light as the shade name would suggest. Definitely swatch it before buying.

NARS Haul & First Impressions

Hello!

Hope everyone is having a good weekend and enjoying the sunshine, if you have any! Today i thought i would talk you through my foray into the wonderful world of NARS. I have always browsed the Space NK website and have put some NARS products into my digital basket many a time, however i could never bring myself to hit the 'Confirm Order' button to complete the transaction. The thought of spending £30 plus on a product which i didn't know if i would like was a nervewracking prospect. However, a month ago my curiosity got the better of me and when i saw that my wages had landed in my bank account, i bit the bullet and ordered three items from NARS. A couple of days later and a little black box arrived in the post containing my mini haul.

Garnier Ultimate Blends The Sleek Restorer Shampoo & Conditioner // Review

Hello,

It has been a while since i have wrote a proper review, so lets see how this pans out! I'm trying to get back into the swing of blogging but i've been procrastinating lately, so i though i'd bite the bullet and sit down to write a post! I also treated myself to a Canon 600D which i've used today. Let me know what you think of the photos...

Todays post is all about a great shampoo and conditioner duo which i have been loving using recently. Normally, i'm not too fussed with shampoo and just choose whatever is on offer in Boots or the supermarket. However, i have heard so many positive remarks about Garnier's new Ultimate Blend range of shampoo and conditioner, that i just had to give them a go!

6 Months Later...

Hello!

A lot has happened in the last 6 months, hence the total lack of blog posts and limited activity on social media. The last 6 months have turned my life upside down and inside out, but it finally looks like things are settling down. My time away from my blog has made me think about my life, what i'm doing with it and where i want to go. I've decided that anything i want to do (within reason), i should do and that i shouldn't take things for granted in life, even the small things!

I've always dreamt of owning a Canon 600D and 50mm Lens, yet i've never had the guts to actually buy one. Simply because i know people would say 'you won't use it' and 'thats a waste of money'. However, the last few months have made me realise that life really is too short (nobody died, don't worry!!) and if i want a new camera, i work bloody well hard enough to treat myself to one! So, one is winging its way to me as i type.
