Favorites of the Week!!

Hello there!! So for this post I decided to show some of my favorites of the week this means every week I will be posting my favorites and this can be general things such as makeup, skincare, clothing, etc. This is also an opportunity for me to share and tell you if it's really worth it buying or trying some of the products, so enough will my rambling and let's jump into it. 


So the five favorites for this week are:
1) Revlon Calcium Gel Nail Hardener. 
2) Cacharel Amor Amor 30ml fragrance.   
3) Garnier BB Cream in light.
4) Dior Bronze Protection Solaire  50 ml with SPF 30. 
5) Loreal Paris eyeshadow in 039 Magnetic Coral.

Revlon Calcium Gel Nail Hardener

I have been using this nail hardener for a couple months now and I have to say that my nails have never been so good as they are since I found this product. What made me purchase this product was because my nails were horrible they were cracked and yellow because of all the nail polish that I was using. Now this product claims that "Helps restore cracked, split & peeling nails. 60% thicker nails in just 4 days", for me this is a big claim so I was curious to try it and to be very honest I love this, I already repurchased because I can't get enough and now I have healthy, stronger nails thanks to Revlon. So I really recommend this product to anyone and you can get it at Boots for £6.49.  

Cacharel Amor Amor 30ml

Oh well I don't even know were to start, anyway this fragrance for me is OMG, it's one of those fragrances that is soft to wear, it's never to much and everyone notices. This is a mix of mandarin, melati jasmine, sandalwood and musk, in another words sensual vanilla and jasmine mingle with sparkling blackcurrant, which to be honest I don't really know the meaning, but that's the meaning that I found lol. I just know that I love this fragrance and I can't get enough. You can get this fragrance at Superdrug for £14.99 for 30ml. 

 Garnier BB Cream in light

For me this is been the product that I have been reaching the most. I know the summer here in the UK it's been pretty bad, but I have been feeling that I don't want to wear a lot of makeup specially foundation. So this is my go to product and I love it, do one I have is combination to oily skin.  


  It's very liquid but it works perfectly on my skin, of course it doesn't give the coverage as a foundation well this is a BB cream so the coverage is minimum, it doesn't cover dark circles, spots, blemishes or acne scars but you can always use a concealer. This is great for me because as I only need to even my skin tone and it looks really natural. Again you can get this product at Boots for £7.49. 

Dior Bronze Protection Solaire  50 ml with SPF 30

I know I know what all of you are thinking Dior very expensive well it's true Dior is expensive but I believe that sometimes it's good to invest in some good products such a sun scream or a moisturizer. Now I got the sun scream, I want to protect my skin from the sun even tho it's not as strong in UK as everywhere else but because I have freckles and higher pigmentation I need it. Now this sun scream not only protects your skin from the sun (containing SPF 30) it also gives a slightly tan and it's water resistant and I love it. You can get yours at House of Fraser at £24.50.   

Loreal Paris eyeshadow in 039 Magnetic Coral

This eye shadow it's been a go to as well for me, this magnetic coral is a hybrid power texture, a creamy, intense in just a stroke. The formula is both water resistant and smudge resistant and does not run into fine lines around eyes.  


This coral color is what attracted me the most it's such a pretty color for all over the lid, very natural and settle as well. This product claims that it lasts up to 24 hours which in my opinion it's not true. I do think after 5 to 6 hours the eye shadow will need touch up and it could go up to 10 hours but 24 it's too much and to be honest I don't know anyone who would were their eye shadow for 24 hours, having said that I like the formula and I think it's worth the price. There are a good range of colors and you can get yours at Boots for £6.99.  

So that's it here are my 5 favorites of the week and I hope you enjoy.
