Pink Parcel | Monthly Subscription Box

Image
Today I have a review of a monthly subscription box by Pink Parcel. This subscription box is different to others as it's a box specifically designed to help you feel better at 'that time of the month'! Pink parcel works by giving you three dates, meaning you choose the one closest to your period, a wide range of sanitary product brands so you can chose your most preferred and you will be sent out a box every month a few days before your period. Today I have the April box* from Pink Parcel to give you an insight as to what the box generally contains every month. Each box contains a 'for you' pack with some treats to  cheer you up, a 'for bedtime' pack with some of your chosen sanitary products, a  'for now' pack containing your sanitary products for general use, a  'keep these in your bag pack' to make carrying sanitary products with you so much easier, a 'for down there' pack with some freshening up wipes and a pack of bags to dispose...

February Favourites | Beauty

Image
Today I am back with my February Favourites! I haven't posted one of these in quite a while but have a few things this month I have been loving and wanted to share with you all! The first product I have is 'The Righteous Butter'  £10  from Soap & Glory. I was actually sent this product  by Soap & Glory and it  featured in my Soap & Glory gift Guide at Christmas  which can be  found  here  if you wanted to take a look!  This product has found its way into my favourites post as I have been using it a lot to keep my feet in tip top condition. I like to put this body butter on a few hours before going to bed, with the addition of fluffy socks and after a few hours my feet are left feeling soft and smooth!  Next up is the 'Exfoliating Daily Face Wash' by Clean & Clear  £3.10 . I tend to swap and change my face wash, so never usually have a  favourite but have been loving this a lot this month! It's perfect for my oil...

Makeup for under £5 | W7 Cosmefics

Image
When it comes to makeup, finding a high quality product at an everyday affordable price is something a lot of people want. Today I have four products ( in the picture below) from W7 and the great thing is... They are all under £5! The product first up is the 'Cheeky Chaps' Multi Blush £4.95*. This blush contains a mix of three shades which when combined create a natural healthy glow on the cheeks, created by the small particles of shimmer that it contains. This blush is perfect for everyday wear and each colour can be used as a highlight so has multiple uses. Next up is the 'Lashtasic' Mascara*  £4.95 . A Black mascara to help create a false lash effect by adding volume and length to lashes. This mascara is fairly good at holding a curl but is quite wet so is best applied in thin layers that are left to dry between each. Next up is the 'Making Waves' Eye Colour* £4.95. This is a multi- eye shadow palette that contains 5 colours ranging from light to dark, perfec...

Makeup Revolution Ultra Base Corrector Palette | Review

The makeup brand 'Makeup Revolution' is well known for its high quality products at everyday prices. Today  I have their Ultra Base Corrector Palette to review and share with you all!  The palette contains 8 colours each with a different job at 'correcting' skin tone, here is a list of what each colour is for: Pink- Brightens Green- Neutralises Redness Orange- Neutralises Blue Tones Peach- Helps to balance out slight discolouration White-  Adds Natural Highlight Cream- Neutralises Purple & covers Dark Areas Brown - Balances Ashiness in Medium to Dark Skin Tones The Colour creams are super blendable with a creamy consistency but haven't got the highest coverage although do help to tone down discolouration. With the whole palette of 8 colours only  £6 , each colour colour works out to only 75p each which is great value for money!  The palette can be purchased online from the   Makeup Revolution  site or online and instore at  Superdrug .

I Love... Cleansing Hand Gel Collection | Review

Image
Hand Cleansing Gels are one of my many, hand bag essentials! What's even better is when the much loved brand 'I Love...' Bring out their own hand gel range in four surprisingly sweet scents!  There are four scents in the range, 'Raspberry & Blackberry*', 'Mango & Papaya*', 'Strawberries & Cream*' and 'Coconut & Cream*' (Which is definately my favourite!)  With Jojoba these hand gels are very moisturising, have a fast acting formula and hygienically cleanse hands  At an affordable  £1.25 each  these lovely hand gels would be great as part of a gift or even a stocking filler. They make hand gels even more exciting unlike the usual standard hand gels available.  If are interested in coconut scented things you can check out my review of some other products in the range  here . These hand gels can be bought from Superdrug and th full range of I Love... Products can be found at  www.ilovecosmetics.com .  Have you tried any products ...

2 True BB Cream | Review

Image
Today I am reviewing a BB cream from 2True. 2True is an affordable UK brand, selling high quality products at everyday prices! The 8 in 1 BB beautiful cream*  £3.50  is a BB cream (Blemish Balm) is a lightweight foundation that 'gives a fresh faced natural glow'. I like the concept of the product, it has 8 functions in one tube, is lightweight, so is great for use on those good skin days and is an affordable everyday product!  I've only found that even though this product is in the shade light/medium, it has a slight orange tone to it. Me having fair skin, means the product doesn't match especially during winter when I'm generally even paler but I do think this product would be great for someone with a slight tan/less pale skin and is looking for a lightweight everyday BB cream!  Have you used/considered using a BB cream?  *Pr Sample

Sweetease Waxing Kits | Review

Image
If there's one type of hair removal that's my least favourite it would have to be waxing. After using waxing strips in the past, I've been left with sticky residue and leftover hairs but that was until I tried 'Sweetease'!  ' Sweetease is a super easy-to-use hair remover, that leaves you skin silky smooth for weeks longer than shaving!'                                  ' Sweetease' have three waxing kits... leg waxing kit* (£3.99), Bikini waxing kit* (£3.99) and Face waxing kit* (£3.99).  The waxing kits are perfect for beginners as the kit includes the waxing strips which are available in 3 different sizes to suit your needs, an instruction leaflet to explain how to use the waxing strips and 2 after wax wipes to remove residue if there is any. After being put off by another brand of waxing strips these have made me use them again! The strips are easy to use, have a sweet vanilla scent and lea...
