Dove Summer Glow Moisturiser
This Dove moisturiser it's been essential for me, the summer here in the UK hasn't been quite a summer and this product definitely helped me achieve that tan that I should have gotten from the sun in the first place. I have fair skin and this doesn't make me look orange or anything like that, it just gives a very nice glow to the skin. This product is also good for people who have a tan as it will help maintain the tan. You can get this product on sale in Sainsbury's until 2/10/2012 for £2.49.
Johnson's Face Care Facial Cleansing Wipes
Johnson's face wipes have been my all time favorite wipes to remove makeup. Do one I have been using and the one I found that works best with my skin is the one for all skin types. It's not to oily and it's not to dry for my skin which makes it very easy to remove makeup. This wipes are normally in sale in Boots sometimes half price, buy one get one free or buy one get the second half price so there are pretty good deals on this product so I suggest you get a hold of it because it's really good. Get yours at Boots for £3.15.
Benefit Blush Hervana
Benefit has a wide range of amazing products and this is another one that I have on my collection. I have been using pretty much everyday I just can't get enough of it.
I have this blush for quite a while(as you can tell by the picture) and I love the consistency of it. Another thing I love about this product is the packaging, Benefit does the greatest packaging, so nice and easy to take around.
The little box with a little mirror is adorable and the reason I purchase this product in the first place. You can get yours at http://www.benefitcosmetics.co.uk/product/view/parentsku/HERVANIB221 for £23.50.
Lancome Hypnose Doll Eyes Mascara
When I first got this mascara I was really excited I've heard so many good things about this product plus the Lancome original mascara Hypnose is amazing but when I gave it a try I didn't like at all, I though it didn't do anything for my lashes. So a week ago I was looking on my drawer when and I saw this mascara and I thought I should give it another go. And I'm glad I did this is actually a really good mascara and now I understand the brag that people where doing about this product.
The brush doesn't get to much product and the shape of it, it will definitely give you that doll eyes effect. I know it's a bit pricey for a mascara but hey it's so worth it. You can get yours now in sale for £18.90 at Debenhams.
Watch
This watch I have been using pretty much everyday and I really like it. There isn't nothing special about it, it was cheap but in my eyes I think it's worth more than I actually spent on. I think this watch was great for spring and summer but now that fall is on the way I will definitely find another watch. I think watches are something great to add to your outfit plus you don't need a fortune to add accessories. This watch was £8 at Peacocks.
Hope you all enjoy.

Favorites of the Week!!
Well it's time for some favorites. I hoped you all had a good week.
Here are my top five favorites;
1) Soap & Glory Flake Away
2) Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Tan Glow
3) Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation
4) Benefit They're Real Mascara
5) H&M Bracelet
Soap & Glory Flake Away
So this is not only my favorite of the week but also my old time favorite. This is a body scrub from Soap & Glory and not try to exaggerate myself I would say this is the best scrub in the market.
This scrub has Shea butter, sugar, almond oils and peach seed powder which it will polish your body and leave it soft and smooth. This product also lasts for a long time I've had it for more than a month and it's not even half yet. So the overall is that it's perfect for the skin it's affordable and it lasts for a while. You can get yours at Boots for £7.
Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Tan Glow
This tan spray from Sally Hansen it's been a go to for me, specially when you want to go somewhere and you want to where a dress or shorts but you look at your legs and their so pale, this is the perfect product if you don't have time to go and get a tan. Easy application and very easy to blend into the skin and it doesn't make the skin look orange it makes it look really natural. You can get yours at Superdrug for £9.99.
Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation
This product is also one of my old time favorite foundation. I can try many foundations but I always end up going back to this one. It's a very light foundation but it definitely can give you a medium coverage.
It's a 30ml foundation with SPF 15, you have to shake it before applying and it lasts for a long time. In my opinion I think everyone should try this foundation, it's one of those products that it works for all skin types, it evens the skin tone and it doesn't even look like you wearing any makeup. You can get yours at House of Fraser for £32.
Benefit They're Real Mascara
Benefit came up with this wonderful mascara, I'm still trying to find words to describe how great this mascara is. It separates your lashes nicely giving a natural look and making you eyes look more awake.
I had mine for a while now I definitely need to get a new one. This mascara is perfect for a everyday look or a night time look. I know it's a bit pricey but it's so worth the money, I would certain recommend. You can get yours at Boots for £18.50.
H&M Bracelet
And last but not least an accessory which I've been wearing all the time, I just love it and it goes with everything.
They are very light weight so you can stack a bunch of them. They come in so many different colors they were great for summer but I think they are still pretty wearable during Autumn. You can get yours at H&m for £4.99.
I hope you all enjoy these favorites and I will come back for more next week.

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.

GlossyBox Beauty!
Hi everyone! Long time no post, well I've been relaxing after all the studying I did, but now I'm ready to post more often because I have more free time. Now for this post I want to talk about something that I've been trying for a couple months and that is the UK Glossybox. If you are not familiar with the glossybox, the glossybox is a monthly subscription box where every month the box comes with five products. I'm sure you all heard of it but if you want more info I will link the website bellow. This for me is a good way of discovering new products and trying something new without spending a lot of money.
The box comes with a card where it explains the products chosen each month.
The same card on the inside explains each and one of the product, price and where you can get it from.
Overall, after a couple months of trying I haven't been disappointed, every month is an excitement for me to see what I'm going to get in the box and if by any chance I don't want the box I can cancel anytime I want. I do recommend to give it a try and if you want to order here is the link,

Current Obsession!!
So for the past two months I've been having this obsession with Michael Kors watches. Michael kors is a fashion designer, he's designs are well known all over the world and now he brings an impressive selection of fashionable watches. There is a wide range of color and design, I just love it. I can't wait to have one myself or maybe two. Off course for a designer watch it has to come with a price, the price range is between £90 to £450 but to be honest price won't be an issue when you love it so much. Here are some of my favorite ones.
