Body Shop Vit E Day Creme


Description

" Our bestselling daily moisturiser hydrates skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth.

·         Hydrates and protects
·         Light and easily absorbed
·         Leaves skin soft and healthy-looking "


 Review

It is no surprise to me that this is a best seller. I use this every morning as a primer for my foundation. Its silky soft has really minimal smell and leaves my  pores filled. It dries reasonably fast and doesn't leave a greasy residue so its perfect for all skin types including oily or oily/dry (thats my skin type). I am now almost finished with my 5th tub! and I wont hesitate to buy another. A little also goes along way so for the price its great value.I have tried a few other things from this range and there equally as good.

Where to buy?

Sleek 'Storm' Pallet


IIf you haven't already tried Sleek make up I seriously suggest that you do! There make up is really affordable and great for new make up users.

This palette is full of really beautiful shimmer shade and also some matt ones. Its definitely more of a night time collection but there are a few in there that you can use in the day. I love that there is a wide range of colors. Rather than them all being naturals or all being brights you have some of each which makes it much easier to blend and create a look using only these. I love these colors and you can make some really nice looks but my biggest issue with them is that they dont show up on camera . Its such a shame because otherwise it would be perfect! To combat this if I was going to wear these shadows on a night out and I wanted the color to be clear on camera I would use a really pigmented color such a Mac or the Barry M dazzle dust pots.

Whats In My Bag



So I thought I would do something a little different than my usual reviews and show you wants in my bag!

As you can see there isn't very much haha my handbag is either stuffed or pretty empty and seeing as this handbag is new mines pretty empty at the moment. I'm sure next time it will be full of really random things.

So I have my purse which is ted baker and I got it from an outlet so rather than being like £100 odd it was £40 (winning). Then I have a pack of plasters because my feet and some strange shape and they rub on most of my shoes so I always have to have them with me which is annoying and actually expensive. Next I have my favorite perfume from channel (chance). A mini deodorant, you never know how sweaty your days gunna be. Hand sanitizer. Public toilets can be really gross and you never know when you need to eat something so keep it there and keep the colds away. Then I have my house keys , my go to lip gloss from Mac plush glass gloss in ample pink which is a really natural dark pink color. Make up wise I also have an MUA powder in shade 3 and blush in lolly, a nail glue, eyelash glue and then my Mac Pro long wear foundation in Nc20. Finally I have my umbrella because you just never know when its going to rain in the UK! and my tangle teazer.

My Favorite Perfume and Why


Chance Channel has to be my all time favorite perfume! The smell is so classy and classic and it works well for both summer and winter. Its a floral smell (not to perfumey tho) with a vanilla hint to it which is probably why I love it so much because im obsessed with anything vanilla. 

You have the choice of buying either the eau de parfum or the eau de toliette, both smell the same except the parfum is stronger. They are quite expensive but in my opinion its worth splashing that bit of extra cash on the parfum because it really does last for ever! You only need one tiny little splash and it will last you all day and probably the next if you didn't shower. If you spray it onto clothes until you wash them it stays put. This is why even tho its expensive it works out as good value for money. A lot of other perfumes i find i have to touch up with several sprays throughout the day.
