make your own lip scrub

to make your own lip scrub you will need:

• a tub or container to put the scrub in
• caster sugar (or granulated sugar, but i prefer caster sugar personally)
• a few lip glosses
• lip balm (i prefer to use flavoured ones)
• vaseline
• some baby wipes or tissues to wipe up any mess
• something to mix it all together with - i used the end of an old brush

so this is everything i had to begin with

i didn't fit it all quite in the close up photo but from left to right

rosey vaseline, natural collection strawberry lip gloss, 17 limited edition vintage lip gloss, rimmel jelly gloss lip gloss 040 moreish, no7 lip gloss in marshmallow and the brush. 

Natural Collection Blusher Review (Pink Cloud)

I've had this natural collection blusher for some time now, and i thought i should get round to doing a review for it!

this is the packaging, like the rest of the natural collection it's very minimalistic and plastic, but what can you expect when you're only paying £1.99 or 3 for £5! it doesnt bother me though, as it's only the actual product that matters, i know packing is important but not for this. 

Right so onto the actual product. The colour/shade is Pink Cloud and it's very pigmented, very good for the price in fact. I wasn't expecting it to be this pigmented, and when you apply it you need to make sure you don't make the same mistake i did and apply too much and end up looking stupid! 

i would definitely recommend trying out some of natural collection blushers if you want to find whether pinky/peachy tones suit you best as you're not really wasting money!

Overall i think this is a wonderful product and especially for the price and would definitely recommend it!

Bodyshop strawberry gift bag

I thought I'd do a review of the Bodyshop strawberry gift bag which i got as a present for my birthday. I checked on the website and it costs £10, but its worth £12.50

you get 

 Strawberry Shower Gel 60 ml
• Strawberry Body Polish 75 ml
• Strawberry Body Butter 50 ml
• Bath Lily

The smell of all of the products is amazing! Although the products are mini sized, but what can you expect for £10!

starting off with the body butter!

it smells absolutely amazing (as all bodyshop products do!). i've had the coconut body butter from lush and the christmas one (i cant remember the name of it right now) but that smelt amazing too! it's a bit thicker than the other two body butters but then once you use it, it becomes more watery. 

this obviously smells amazing too! and leaves your skin really soft because of the beads in it which gets rid of any dead skin especially if you use the bath lily that comes in the set as well.

i only used a little bit of this in the shower which is why it looks pretty much full! but it is probably one of my favourite shower gels ever! 

just a normal bath scrubber thing! they call it a bath lily which makes it sound really cute! but just works like any other shower scrubber!

i would definitely recommend buying this whether it be for yourself or as a gift. It's very affordable and worth the money and as they're only mini sizes if you decide you don't like the products you can haven't wasted too much money!

Ed Sheeran

this isn't a beauty related post but this beautiful man is Ed Sheeran although i'm sure most of you will know who he is. He has the most beautiful voice and i love listening to him sing.

Welcome.

Finally got round to setting up my own blog so i can do reviews on products and anything else that comes into my head!
