Salcura Antiac Daily Facial Wash Review

Salcura

Today I’m going to be talking about a product with a RRP of £9.99 which I got for 99p through an offer advertised on facebook. I can’t find that this is still active, which is a shame if not but it’s a product worth talking about anyway. The product in question is the Salcura Antiac Daily Facial Wash, which I bought because my skin has been breaking out a lot and has been rather painfully lately.

Feel Unique Haul

FeelUniqueHaul

Back again with yet another haul! I’ve been spending my hard earned cash on some items from My Beauty Wish List and I gotta save, it’s satisfying to have got my hands on some things I’ve been wanting for  a while. Especially when I got some great deals on them too! This time I raided Feel Unique… Twice!

The Best Translucent Powder: Makeup Revolution vs Freedom vs Rimmel

Translusent Powder

I think a comparison review is always a helpful read when you’re looking for a new product to try. A translucent face powder is a very basic product which I’m sure many of you use. I’ve picked up three very affordable drugstore ones to show you just how different they can be.

Drugstore Essentials Haul

Drugstore Essentials

I know I fell of the face of the planet for a bit there, but I’m back! I have been super busy viewing houses around working, but (not to jinx anything) I think that might be over soon… I did manage to do a bit of essential shopping though and I’m going to share that with you today.

Pink Parcel July First Impressions

PP July

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you may have read about my previous experiences with Pink Parcel. I have had two boxes from them this year, both of which were delivered too late for that time of the month. Both times I was impressed with the customer service I received.

My Beauty Wish List

BeautyWL

I can’t really afford to go splurging this month due to moving house, but that hasn’t stopped me from dreaming (read: drooling) about some products I’ve seen a lot of lately!

Soap & Glory Shampoo & Conditioner Review

S&G S&C

Back in October I made the switch to sulphate free shampoo and have found that it really agrees with my hair – it helps my colour last longer, allows me to go an extra day between washes and is overall shinier and healthier. I scoured the shelves of Boots and The Body Shop (among others) and have tried out several different ones since then, but nothing was as good as the beloved Liz Earle offering. Until now.

Another Little Lush Haul

LilLushHaul

I’m not sure if you’ve heard or not, but Lush have announced that they are discounting over 20 products this month to make room for some of the Oxford Street Exclusive products. The staff at my local store seemed pretty excited about the new products they would now be getting, but are currently unable to say what they are! Lush are also updating their carrier bags soon and I think the new design is much cleaner and nicer!

Freedom Makeup Haul & First Impressions

FreedomMakeup

There’s a brand spanking new makeup company on the block – Freedom Makeup. Owned by the much loved and highly affordable Makeup Revolution, Freedom Makeup are the professional sister company. When they launch last week they had not one, but two promotions running and I thought it would be rude not to take a look at the site at least. Upon seeing that the prices were equally as good as Revolution, I couldn’t resist a little haul!

Makeup Revolution Brand First Impressions & FOTD

MUR 1st Impressions

I’ve been wanting to write this post for a few days now, but I wanted to make sure I had time to sit and write it out properly. I’ve always known it was going to be a fairly hefty one considering the amount of Makeup Revolution products I have. I hadn’t tried anything from them until a month ago, when I won a giveaway hosted by Rachael from Helpless Whilst Drying and I also purchased two individual eyeshadows in the huge 3 for 2 on all make up offer at Superdrug.

May Pink Parcel First Impressions

May PP

I am aware that it is now June, but I have once again had issues with getting my Pink Parcel order. This is the second time (out of two boxes!) that I’ve had the issue, but I really want to love them.

The Body Shop Haul

TBS Haul

At the weekend, I realised that my Body Shop loyalty card was about to expire and that I had an unclaimed reward. So I decided to take a look in store and see if anything took my fancy as I needed to spend £10 in order to claim the £5 gift.

Empties 7

Empties 7

It’s not been that long since my last Empties post. In fact, I’m writing this up more than a week in advance because I am dying to throw all of this out! (Except the Lush pot, keeping that for their trade in scheme.) Despite having had 11 items in the previous post, I’ve had most of this sitting around for a few weeks already. I used most of it up within a couple of days of blogging the last lot and have only added 1 or 2 since then.

Forever Haulin’ ft. Lush, Black Milk Clothing, Superdrug & More!

Forever Haulin

As I said in my last haul, (which was uhm, only two weeks ago…) I have been very much enjoying having some money to my name as this is my first month with full time pay. I have definitely gotten a bit carried away, but with all these new bits I should be set for a while. Hopefully this will have gotten it out my system. (She says doubtfully, eyeing her online Superdrug basket)

Sephora Eyeshadow Crayon Swatch & Review

EyeCrayon

I picked up this pencil eyeshadow when I was in France, as sadly we don’t have Sephora here in the UK. I actually got two shades, but this has been by far my favourite. This is 04 Taupe and I also got 15 Purple, which you can see in my French Beauty Haul. You can use these as both an eyeshadow and an eyeliner. I have only tried them as eyeshadows, but think I will try the purple as an eyeliner soon because the colour is quite strong for an all over shadow.
