Review: Charles Worthington Moisture Seal Mask

Hey Guys,

So sorry about the massive silence from me but I'm back on blogging form. 

Today I am going to share my thoughts on the Charles Worthington Moisture Seal Masque. 


Because I am in the process of dying my hair blonde (update coming soon) I am really trying not to damage the condition of my hair. I picked this up on a whim in boots a week or two ago and I really love it. Since then I have noticed it has been raved about just about everywhere, and I can totally see why! It leaves your hair feel smooth and luxurious as well as reducing frizz and making your hair so manageable!  (On a side note the style of lid is so handy and I think all brands should use this!) It has honestly been a while since I've enjoyed using a product so much, in fact I'm getting a little nervous about the fact that it is running out! 

Let me know if you have tried this or have any other recommendations for me to try out!

March Favourites

Hey Guys, 

I love watching and reading favourite posts, they are some of my favourite (see what I did there) posts because you get to really see what the person has enjoyed throughout the month. Personally I don't change things up often enough to do one of these monthly but I am going to do them as often as I can.




So this month has been a strange month, I've found some new products but also fallen back in love with some previously loved products. 
First things first Batiste Dry Shampoo. Seriously I will never know why I stopped buying this maybe I lost my mind? Every girl needs this in their life, it brings your hair back to life between washes and can also add volume for days your hair is lacking a little oomph! 
Whoosh Shower Jelly from Lush. This is another product that I have loved for ages but stopped using. Now I do know why I stopped using this, it was to try other shower products. But every time I go in to a Lush I find myself drawn back to this. Its a really citrusy fresh smell that really wakes you up in the morning!
Nailene Nails. The packaging has come off these nails but they are available in boots for around £8 for 500. They are short, clear and have a square edge. I really like these nails for a couple of reasons. Firstly they are clear so you can paint them any colour you want. Secondly the glue you get with them is really good, the nails stay on for around a week, making them really good value for money. 
Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation.You have previously read my thoughts on this here. I have used this almost every day this month. I still love it and will still love for a long time yet.
Bobbi Brown Pale Peach lipstick. This has been my favourite, favourite, of the month. I bought this on a whim around three weeks ago. I kid you not it has been on my lips everyday since. It is the most gorgeous nude/peach colour which makes it really wearable. The texture is also beautiful, it is a matte finish, but it applies like a dream. It is really creamy and moisturizing and has a really great staying power! Basically I LOVE it and tend to buy more of this formula!
Bumble and Bumble Thickening Hairspray. The main reason I love this is because it does exactly what it says on the bottle. It really does thicken your hair as well as having great holding power what ever style your going for. Another this to note with this is that it smells great! Not sure what it smells like just know it smells beautiful!


So those were my favourites. Let me know your favourite products this month or just what you have enjoyed using.

Lush: Melting Marshmallow Bath Melt

Hey Guys,

Today I am going to share my thoughts on the Lush luxury bath melt in melting marshmallow.




To use this you pop this in your bath under running water and it makes your bath all bubbly and colorful. As well as making your bath look really great it also makes it smell really great. The smell of this reminds me quite a bit of Snow Fairy, which is the signature christmas scent, its quite sweet but not sickly sweet. However the reason I love this is the way it makes your skin feel! In all honesty my skin has never felt as luxurious and soft as it did when I used this in my bath. It is meant to be really nice for people with sensitive skin as well!This is a definite re-purchase for me!

Let me know if you have ever tried this.

Stress Free Sunday

Hey Guys,

Hope you've had a good weekend! I've been at work all weekend and feel very stressed tonight (knowing I've got an 11 hour shift tomorrow isn't helping either) 
So I thought I'd share with you what I do to relax on a Sunday night!



So my ideal night starts off with a nice hot bubble bath using all of my favourite products at the minute this is Soap & Glory sugar crush! Then I pop on a face mask, at the minute I'm trying some samples from Avon. My favourite is the clay mask! At the same time I like to either use a deep conditioner or pop on a hair mask! Once the face mask can come off I cleanse and polish my face, I'm still loving the Botanics radiant youth polish. It's a really fine harsh scrub that I like to use once or twice a week. 

Once the bath is finished, I'll put on some fresh PJ's  and apply a nourishing moisturizer. My current fav is the Body Shop Vitamin E cream. The final thing to do is make a cup of tea and settle down to Sunday night tv. At the minute I am re-watching Sherlock as well as catching up with The Vampire Diaries online. Then sleep!

There you have it, my ideal relaxing Sunday night in! How do you spend your Sundays?

Monday Madness

Hey Guys :)

This morning I woke up with a long list of things that I want to do this week. I thought I would come on here and let you know because I find if I write down my to do lists I'm more likely to stick to them.

Image Source: Pintrest

So here goes: 

Wash my car
Plan and take photos for blog posts 
Wash my Make-up brushes (all of them) 
Cleanse my face every night before bed 
Make my lunches for work 
Make an appointment for Zan to get a haircut 


So they are my little jobs that I need to do for the week. They may not seem like a lot but they can end taking quite a bit of time. I'll be sure to let you know how I get on!

Review: Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation

Hey Guys,

Sorry about being a little MIA recently guys, bad blogger I know. 
So today I am going to share my thoughts on the Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation. I picked this foundation up because I really wanted to treat my self and I needed new foundation so i thought why not?! Lately I have been really in light coverage foundations, which is not like me at all,considering one of my favourites is the Estee Lauder Double Wear. I also wanted to try some new brands. This is my first ever Bobbi Brown product, and I think I've fallen in love!The shade I was matched up to was Warm Beige.


This foundation is a really light coverage ( as the name would suggest, obviously) so much so that you can still see my freckles through it.  You can build it up if you wanted to to give a medium coverage but  that kind of defeats the object. 
The only thing that I wasn't to keen on was that it is very runny which is something I'm not really used to. My favourite way to apply this is with a beauty blender, I think this is because its so runny I find this method the easiest. 
It can cling to my dry patches around my nose, so if you have got really dry skin I maybe wouldn't reccomend it.  
It also has SPF 15 in which is always a bonus, not that we're getting much sunshine at the moment. 


Have you tried this foundation, or anything else from Bobbi Brown? Let me know if you have any reccomendations!

My Valentine


Hey Guys,

Happy Valentines day to you all. To be honest me and Stuart don't really celebrate valentines, we used to when we first got together but it kind of lost it's shine. Currently I am sat at my desk in the office where I am until 9pm so I won't even see Stuart tonight.

At least I included a picture of us, that's romantic right?


I hope you all have a fantastic night tonight, whatever your doing or whoever your spending it with.

Speak soon,
Jessica
