Revlon Cream Blush

Revlon Cream Blush - 150 Charmed Enchantement

There's not a lot of products from Revlon I haven't tried, my local Boots is fairly small so when I saw this little beauty peeking out of the bottom shelf of the Revlon counter it was new to me, I was intrigued.
I often find myself scouring the Revlon section looking for new things and this was something I hadn't seen before so I instantly popped it into my basket.

Firstly, the packaging is lovely, a nice sized round pot full of the most beautiful coloured blush.
The texture is slightly watery, it blends beautifully leaving your cheeks looking perfectly flushed. The colour is a gorgeous every day spring/summer shade. The lasting power is nothing brilliant but it lasts a good few hours, luckily the small packaging makes it perfect for carrying around with you.
For the price this is a definite winner for me, my only issue is that their was only one shade available in my Boots, I'll be on the hunt for more.

Have you tried any of Revlon's Cream Blushes?

I finally tried Bioderma!


So I'm sure you have all heard about the very widely hyped Bioderma... it's been the forever raved about product for years now, the king of make up removers, the French skincare product everybody wants.
At one point this was difficult to get without jetting off to France, but in the past year this has become a lot more widely available and I can now get it in my local chemist. 

I've tried the Loreal and Garnier dupes for this at affordable prices and been generally happy, but the other day when I stumbled across Bioderma I'm a chemist 2 minutes from my house I just went for it.... I opted for the smallest size, 100ml costing £4.50, I wanted to sample the product and see the comparisons between the almighty Bioderma and the cheaper dupes.

The formula is lovely, not at all drying did a pretty good job at removing the majority of my make up... still nothing special when it came to mascara but it worked for everything else perfectly. Overall I was happy, slightly pricey for what it is, but I'm still deciding if it's a keeper for me.

I'm going to do a comparison post next week, so stay tuned for my thoughts and comparisons between the Micellar waters I have tried.

Have a happy Monday :)

Maybelline Big Eyes Mascara


When it comes to mascara I can be quite fussy. My lashes are quite long anyway so I like a bit of volume, a bit of separation and a bit of length all in one. I'd heard quite a lot about Maybelline's latest addition to the mascara clan and I'd hears mostly positive reviews so I thought I'd give it a shot.



The mascara comes with two different wands, a larger one for the upper lashes and a smaller wand for the lower lashes.
I loved this mascara.
My bottom lashes are super long so if I put mascara on them normally they actually touch my skin and it does not look right, however the smaller brush adds the perfect amount of product onto my lashes and makes them look great.
The formula and the brushes are both great and I love how my lashes look after using this.

Have you tried this mascara? Did you like it?
