Everyday Base Must Haves

I have been on a quest to find the best combination of products to give me a flawless base and I think I have finally found the products! It was not until recently that I realised how much of my makeup that I use everyday is from the high end so I have picked up some products from the high street for a more affordable face which will be coming up in the next couple of weeks. These are the products which I have been using every single day for the last month or so. 

Barry M Contour Kit

I have finally got into the world of contouring - only a bit late, hey! I have had a bit of a love/hate relationship with the way contouring looks but decided to give it a try when I spotted a highstreet contouring palette. I think it is always fun to try out new makeup looks, especially when the products are on a budget. I am not the best at makeup but I love experimenting with it and this palette it has been perfect to do so.

Feelunique.com Beauty Haul

Opps... I *may* have spent a little too much on makeup this week! I haven't really ordered or purchased any new makeup in a few months so I though it was about time I treated myself! I had been dieing to get my hands on another Urban Decay Naked Palette after having the Smoky version which is the main reason why I placed this huge order! Sorry bank balance, I'm not done yet! 

$26 Prescription Glasses | Firmoo Glasses Review

Ever since I was about 14 I have needed glasses as being on the computer so much during my GCSE's ruined my eye sight. It wasn't until a few years ago that I realised how much cheaper it is to order prescription glasses online rather than getting them from the opticians, I also went private so you can imagine how expensive each trip to get my eyes tested was! Firmoo is a company which I had been wanting to order from for a while now and I have never been so impressed with glasses.

Soap and Glory Kick Ass All is Calm Stick

One of my main struggles with my skin, besides acne, is redness. I have tried the highest coverage foundations and so many green based products to try and counteract it but the redness always peeks through my foundation and concealer. When I spotted the new Kick Ass Face Sticks from Soap and Glory I knew I had to get my hands on All is Calm to see if it would help with my redness. I also picked up the Super-Blur option which I have been loving - full review here. 

Spring Barry M Nail Polish Favourites

Barry M nail polishes are my favourite as they have such a good selection of formulas and shades while being super affordable and accessible! Spring time is my favourite time of year for my nails because I get to get out all of my pretty pastel shades. When I was choosing out shades for Spring, every single shade I picked was from Barry M and I can't wait to paint my nails next!

Yankee Candle Simply Home Sage & White Tea

When I spotted a few new scents to the Simply Home range from Yankee Candle when I was doing a food shop in Tesco, I knew I had to pick them all up - even better that the wax melts were only 80p each! Sage & White Tea was one of the scents that I didn't think I was going to be too keen on because it is different than what I usually go for but I have really enjoyed melting it! 

Primark Exclusive Baby Balmi Lip Balm

If there is one product I have far too many of, it's lip balms! But I just can't stop buying them, I must have at least four in my handbag alone with the rest of them scattered in my makeup collection and around my house. While I was checking out in Primark, I spotted the cute Baby Balmi Lip Balm and knew I had to pop it in my basket - I always get sucked into those last minute purchases when queueing which you never need! 

Shopping My Stash (Spring Edition)

I have always loved the shop my stash videos on Youtube and thought it would make an interesting blog post! I have far too much makeup that I can actually use on a daily basis so a lot of it goes untouched for months and collects dust sitting in a draw. I went through my stash and pulled out some products that I have used in a while and some that I loved at this time last year and I can't wait to start using them again!

Clinique Pep Start Eye Cream

I will be the first to admit that I know I should be using an eye cream everyday but I just couldn't be bothered before and the ones I had been using didn't seem to make a difference. Then I won the Clinique Pep Start Eye Cream in a giveaway on Twitter and I haven't stopped using it since! I am so glad that I won it because I don't think I personally would have spent the £22 without trying it first.

Top 5 High End Lip Products

If I am ever going to splurge on a makeup item, it is usually a lip related product. I don't know how I can justify a £23 lip balm but I cant justify a Urban Decay Naked Palette but thats how my brain works! These five products are my favourites from the high end counters at the moment and if you don't have at least one of these, they are definitely worth the splurge. 

Flamingo Candles Green Apples Scent Melt

I am obsessed with wax melts and prefer them over candles because I like to try out lots of scents. I am finally trying other brands than Yankee Candle and Flamingo Candles were at the top of my to try list for 2016! While I was on Amazon, I spotted some of their melts and checked out immediately and one of the melts I picked up was in the Green Apples scent.
