March 2018 Beauty Favourites

I can't lie, I'm very excited March to be ending, mainly for TV reasons. In the next week, I have Jersey Shore back on my screen and it's Wrestlemania weekend so I will be watching all the TV this coming month and I am far too excited about it. I didn't do a favourites post last month as I didn't have that many products to talk about to this is a combination of favourites from February and March.

Emma Hardie Lift & Sculpt Firming Neck Treatment

Emma Hardie is a brand that I have been wanting to try for a while now so this product was a great place to start! As this a firming neck treatment, I wanted both myself and my mum to put it to the test to see how it worked on different ages of skin and spoiler alert, we both love it!

Beauty Easter Eggs

I can't believe it's Easter this weekend already! January seemed to take forever to get through and now the months are flying by. If you know someone who can't have or doesn't like chocolate for this Easter but you want to get them a little something, I have got you covered!

New In Beauty: March 2018

This month has been a seriously good month for new beauty launches! There have been so many exciting new launches and if I wasn't on a spending ban, I would have bought it all! There's a great mixture of affordable and luxe launches so no matter your budget, there is a new product out now for you...

How To: Blog on a Budget

Blogging can be an expensive hobby to have, from domain renewals to blog props and products to review, it all adds up. I have been blogging for years now and I like to do things as affordable as possible. I thought I would share some of the ways I continue to blog on a budget...

Vegan Beauty Recommendations

Finding beauty products that are vegan can be a little bit of a struggle. Especially, with brands like Garnier claiming that their products are vegan even know they aren't. MAC is also a brand claiming that they don't support animal testing...yet they sell in China where testing on animals is required by law. So, I thought I would share some of my favourite beauty products that are vegan and are cruelty-free.

Five Palettes to Invest In

Palettes are my weakness, I just can't stop buying them or lusting over them. I already have a few on my 'to-buy list' once my spending ban ends but I thought I would share the five that I am absolutely obsessed with at the moment. There are four eyeshadow palettes and one highlighter palette that I just can't get enough of.

Tarte Shape Tape TSV (£44.97 WORTH £123!)

I have been obsessed with Tarte products lately so when I heard about this TSV, I knew I had to get my hands on it! It's officially the 'Today's Special Value' at QVC today but I managed to order mine at the beginning of the week as it went online as a preview. I obviously can't give you a full review of most of the products as I have only tried them once so far but I will have full reviews soon.

Glossier Wowder Review

I have wanted this product for ages so I'm so happy to finally have my hands on it thanks to some Glossier credit! I love loose powders and as I use them every day, I am always going through them so quickly so I wanted to try out Wowder to see if it was worth the hype or not.

Crown Brush Purple HD Makeup Brush Set

I have been obsessed with makeup brushes lately! Usually, I'm not that fussed about the tools I'm using as long as they work but ever since I tried out the Real Techniques Brush Crush brushes I had been wanting to try out some new ones. I have tried a couple of Crown Brush products in the past, including the palettes and the paddle brushes which I loved so I was excited to try these out!

Knight & Wilson PurePlex Revolutionary Hair Repair System

My hair is always in need of a treatment as I wash it daily and use heat on it so when I heard about PurePlex I got so excited as it sounded like something my hair was in desperate need of! There are some hair treatments that aim to make the hair stronger and healthier but they are very expensive whereas this system is actually really affordable so I couldn't wait to see if it actually works!

A Cleanse & Polish Dupe?

I love my Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish but it is quite expensive to repurchase every couple of months so when this so-called dupe arrived through my letterbox, I couldn't wait to put it to the test! I always get so excited trying out dupe products as I love to save money whenever I can.

Tropic Face Masks

I love a good face mask and with Tropic being one of my favourite brands when it comes to skincare, I was excited to try out their three face masks! I have so into skincare products recently so I knew these would be up my street to put to the test.

Makeup Actually Worth the Hype

I try not to give into the hype around beauty products straight away, I wait for some of my favourite bloggers and YouTubers to do reviews before I buy most things. But sometimes, I find myself giving into the hype and just blindly buying products but luckily I am not often disappointed with my purchases. These are the products that are definitely worth the hype and ones I will definitely be repurchasing when the time comes.

Please Don't Buy a Bunny as an Easter Present

As the proud owner of two gorgeous bunnies, I urge you not to buy a bunny as an Easter present, for a young child, unless you are absolutely sure you want the 10+ commitment. Bunnies aren't 'easy' or 'cheap' pets to have, they are expensive and they need a lot of love and attention.

Glossier Lidstars Reviewed & Swatched

For the last couple of months, I have been really loving cream-based eyeshadows so as soon as these dropped, obviously I had to have them. I've become one of those girls who stalks the Glossier website whenever they launch new products and for the last few launches I've managed to buy them before they even send out the email! I honestly thought I wasn't going to be a fan of these but of course, Glossier has done it again!

Soap & Glory Makeup Recommendations

Soap and Glory have been one of my go-to brands in Boots for as long as I can remember now. What started as an obsession with the body care then turned into a massive love of the makeup and skincare. I thought I would share some of my top picks from the Soap and Glory makeup range as I don't think the products are talked about enough!

MasqueBAR Foil Sheet Masks

I love a good sheet mask and MasqueBAR always have come really cool and unique ones to try out. These are two of the newest launches that are now available from ASOS and they are foil sheet masks, I have never seen anything like these before! so I was excited to get them on my face!

Lee Stafford Choco Locks

I swear I'm always raving about Lee Stafford products but they are honestly one of my favourite hair care brands, if not my favourite! As soon as I spotted this new range online I was so excited to give it a try and it hasn't disappointed. Who doesn't want hair that smells like chocolate?!

Pixi Skin Treats

I have been really enjoying skincare products recently and I have been loving trying out new things. One of my favourite brands at the moment is Pixi, I love how well the products work for me and the fact that they are cruelty-free so I was excited to try out two newer launches from the brand.

Primark Ps... Nudes Eyeshadow Palette Review (£4!)

I've got to admit, I'm a bit of a makeup snob a lot of the time. There are only a few high street brands that I will purchase from (mainly because most aren't cruelty-free) but Primark makeup had never been on my radar. I had heard some good things about Primark's beauty range so I decided to pick up this palette and give it a try...

Best Cruelty Free Lip Glosses

Lip glosses are by far my favourite lip product, I have a drawer full of them and I can't get enough! I thought I would share my absolute favourite glosses today that are cruelty-free as I no longer personally purchase any beauty products that are tested on animals or sold in China. These are the five that I am always using on rotation!

L'Occtiane Terre de Lumière L'Eau Collection

L'Occitane is one of my favourite brands when it comes to luxury beauty, I don't think you can go wrong with their products, especially with the hand creams. I love gifting L'Occitane products and with Mother's Day coming up on Sunday, if you need a last minute gift - this is the perfect option!

Liz Earle Skincare Favourites

When I was around 15, Cleanse and Polish pretty much changed my life, not to be dramatic or anything. It transformed my skin and nine years later I am still as obsessed with it as I was then. I had realised that I hadn't really mentioned Liz Earle on the blog despite being such a massive fan so I thought I would share my top three skincare products.

Barry M Under The Sea Nail Polish Collection Review

Barry M nail polishes are some of the best ones on the high street so I always get excited about any new releases. Being cruelty-free with my personal purchases now makes buying nail polish quite difficult but Barry M is a cruelty-free brand that I know and trust! I have fallen in love with this new collection and I'm loving all the mermaid vibes when it comes to beauty at the moment.

Fenty Beauty Foundation Review

Fenty Beauty is the one brand I have been dying to try and even though there are some very mixed reviews on this foundation, I knew this had to be one of the first products that I tried out. I love foundations, they are one of my favourite products to test, and I had my fingers crossed that this would be a new favourite and it is!

Happy Jackson 2018

A little secret about me, I love tech stuff! I am a massive Apple fan and I am always looking for fun accessories for my tech which is where Happy Jackson come in! Today marks the launch of the new Spring-Summer line of tech accessories with a refreshed colour palette and some cool new items that I just had to share! I will also have a giveaway live on Twitter so make sure you check that out too.

Shea Moisture Daily Hydration Shampoo & Conditioner Review

My hair is such a pain so I am always trying out new products to try and get it under control. I do wash it every day and use heat tools but my hair is in pretty good condition considering and it never stops growing. The one issue I have with my hair is that it is quite dry through the mids to ends so I was excited to finally try out Shea Moisture products!

Beautyblender x Too Faced Beauty Sleep Set

It's no secret how much I love my beautyblender, I can't apply my foundation and concealer without one now! So when I saw this collaboration set, I knew I had to have it! Too Faced are one of my favourite brands so two too Faced products paired with one of my favourite beauty tools was a match made in heaven.

Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette Review with Swatches

I am extremely late to the party on this one! I had wanted to get this ever since the launch but I wasn't sure how much I would actually use it as I have so many palettes. Then my friend Lily got it and she makes me want everything so I finally placed my order and I wish I had got it sooner as I adore it!

Real Techniques Brush Crush Collection

Last year I wrote about this brush collection and I was so excited about the launch but for whatever reason, it's taken me until now to actually get my hands on a few! After I received one for my birthday and I fell in love and I knew I needed to get a couple more and I'm so glad I did. I can definitely see myself picking up the rest soon too...

Glossier Solution Review (With Before and After Photos)

I am forever trying out products to help with my acne and scarring so when this launched, I knew I needed to put it to the test. I have been using this consistently for about five weeks now and I am incredibly impressed with it, It has completely transformed my skin! I know it has had some mixed reviews but this has been a wonder product for me.

Nails Inc Self-Made Mermaid Nail Polish Duo Review

As soon as I saw this on Instagram, I knew I needed it! I love these kinds of nail polish colours on me and Nails Inc are one of my favourite formulations of nail polish so it was the perfect fit! My Mum actually got me this for my Birthday and I'm so glad she did as its all I have worn on my nails since I got them a couple of weeks ago.
