Maybelline Baby Lips

Hey Guys So after a long time searching I finally managed to get my hands on the most talked about lip balm this summer, Maybelline's Baby Lips. I don't know if its because there was so much hype surrounding them or because I had such high expectations for this lip balm, but when I finally got it I have to say I wasn't overly impressed with what I'd bought. I bought 'Minty Fresh' and 'Intense Care' mainly because they were the only ones left besides the tinted 'Cherry Lips', which just didn't appeal to me. I always buy lip balm for conditioning purposes so often steer clear of anything that is tinted. Don't get me wrong, I don't actually dislike the product at all I was just expecting a lot more from it due to the stir the range had caused when it came across from the U.S. Both products are fairly decent at moisturising but at the end of the day I don't feel they do much more than a tin of Vaseline which costs half the price.

The best ever bath/body wash combo

Hey everyone! Hope you're all well! This isn't so much a review rather just a post to let you know how in love with these products I am. I picked them up in TK Maxx last week, where I instantly fell in love with them. I had originally seen the Au Lait range from The Scottish Fine Soaps Company in boutique shop in Sheffield not so long ago, however I thought they were a little bit pricey, so when I saw these in TK Maxx at a massively discounted price I snapped them up. The body wash was was £3 and the bathing milk was £5. They are both absolutely gorgeous products and smell amazing. They have definitely become my most favourite bathing products for the moment as not only do they smell incredible but they are also super moisturising. If you see these around I urge you to give them a try. You won't regret it! They can be found here  on the company's website along with the rest of the range, but at the original price. To be honest even if I can't get these products

Boots Haul

Hey Guys! So here's my first ever haul post! I got this lot at Boots over the weekend with most of my purchases being based around reviews/recommendations I've read recently. I'm not going to give massive detailed reviews of each product, as that would be too long, so i'm just going to give a brief overview of what I think about each one. Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in Fair This is a truly brilliant product. A small amount really does go a long way and the coverage this product gives is second to none. The price of this product is amazing and so far I haven't found anything better for the price! It can be found online at  Boots.com  for £4.19  Maybelline The Volum Express Falsies Flared Mascara I really like this mascara. It adds great length to lashes and really does flare them out. I'm not as astounded by this mascara as i'd first hoped, but that hasn't stopped me from using it on a daily basis and being pretty pleased w

The Curly Hair Essentials

Over the years I have been on a quest to find any products that can attempt to tame my unruly mane. I have the curliest hair known to man, which can be both a blessing and a curse at the same time. Blessing because in essence I can get away with going months between having to have my highlights re-done and a curse as it does take a lot effort to try and maintain, so that it doesn't look like a giant ball of frizz. I go to the hairdressers roughly once every two months to have a deep conditioning treatment, a cut and sometimes my highlights re-done, but in the mean time I use the following products to keep my hair under control: Lee Stafford Argan Oil  Once I've washed my hair, I brush it thoroughly with the Macadamia No Tangle Brush (Best brush ever! Review to come.) and rub this oil into the ends of my hair, sometimes adding the tiniest bit to the roots if my hair is really dry. This oil is amazing. I have used other oils such as the Macadamia Oil and for me there is
