Product Review – Emani & Rosehip Plus

August 15, 2018 By in Beauty, Product Reviews Tags: , , , , , , , 10 Comments

I had the lovely opportunity of trying an Emani Foundation and a Rosehip Plus Oil, and they are now one of my current favourites products. Let’s talk about this Emani Foundation first. For those who have never heard of this foundation, it is a luxurious foundation infused with Hyaluronic Acid, Organic Nutrients and High Impact Pigments to give the skin an instant radiance. Hyaluronic Acid is such a great skincare ingredient to have in a product. It fortifies the skin’s natural barriers by penetrating and infusing all layers of the skin with rejuvenation moisture.

I have used this Emani foundation for weeks now and I have quite a lot to say about it. The shade I have here is Sand Beige and it suits my skin tone perfectly.

 

Here are the pros and cons.

PROS
  1. I love the packaging. The bottle is beautiful and the pump is easy to use with no messes.
  2. This foundation is a 100% vegan, gluten free, and cruelty free formula.
  3. It is very long lasting; it stays on all day.
  4. I love the medium coverage with dewy finish. It diminishes the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and skin pores.
  5. A little goes a long way with this foundation. I only use a tiny portion for my entire face and it is more than enough.

CONS

I really like this foundation. It is a great 12 hour Hydra Liquid Foundation. I would recommend it 100%. You can grab it for £34 from Love Lula and Mahi Naturals and Amazon.

Rosehip Plus Oil Skin Boost Roll On

Rosehip Plus Oil Skin Boost Roll On is a 100% pure and natural Certified Organic oil, cold pressed from the seeds of the Rosehip (Rosa Canina). It helps the skin look healthy and shiny. It can be use on the face and body. I have used it a couple of times now and here are my thoughts.

 

PROS
  1. I like the compact packaging of this skincare product.
  2. It is very easy to use. You just roll it all around where you need it. Which is handy when you want to target specific areas.
  3. The fragrance is nice.
  4. It keeps my skin moisturised and silky.
  5. This product promotes skin elasticity and texture.
  6. It is a great travel beauty product as it is tiny and it won’t leak.

My Very Own Fragrance

July 9, 2018 By in Beauty Tags: , , , , , , , , , 15 Comments

If you remember, some weeks ago, I mentioned the fact that I have been trying my hands on creating my very own fragrance. I created the perfume in the comfort of my bedroom with my daughter’s input thanks to The Perfume Studio. For those who have never heard of The Perfume Studio, the brand stocks exquisite range of blends sourced from the world’s finest ingredients to create personalised fragrances.

I had the privilege of getting the Exotic Collection, which had 6 carefully selected blends – Fruity Amber, Musky, Exotic Floral, Spicy, Amber and Gourmand.

How I Created My Very Own Fragrance

I stated on a smooth flat surface with some kitchen towels close by. After taking a quick sniff of each of the blends, using the scent strip, I noted my favourites and stated the process of filling the perfume bottle with the blends using the pipettes provided in the box.

I wanted a floral scent to match the current season, so I started with the Exotic Floral Blend. The blend is dry, sweet and floral. I poured in about 7ml of the Exotic Floral Blend as I wanted it very summery and I needed the gold colour of the blend to reflect in the final look of my perfume.

 

Fragrance Tip 1 – Keep some coffee beans handy to help neutralise the nose in between smelling the blends.

Then I went for the Gourmand Blend next. This blend has a stronger scent and I didn’t want it overpowering the floral scent. So I poured in only 4ml of this blend.

The Musky Blend went in next. I needed only 2ml of it as I didn’t want it overpowering the overall floral fragrance I was going for.

I love the sweetness of the Amber Blend scent a lot. 5ml of it went in next, with another 5ml of the Spicy Blend going in to add some spice to the final fragrance.

Finally, 4ml of the Fruity Blend went into the perfume bottle.

I really like this fragrance I created. The final scent is just what I wanted – sweet and floral. I also got the gold look I wanted as well. If you are interested in creating a unique fragrance, I suggest you check out The Perfume Studio. I enjoyed my first experience of creating my own unique scent. And I am looking forward to creating many more scents.

 

Fragrance Tip 2 -Keep your perfume in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and temperature changes.

 

 

 

Product Review – NYX Blotting Paper & Makeup Brush Cleaner

June 14, 2018 By in Beauty Tags: , , , , , , , , 22 Comments

Summer is here and I am loving the long sunny days. A new season usually means new beauty products. It is also a great time to get some stunning photos taken. I found some great Photobox Discount Codes and Vouchers and I am eager to get some personalised Photo Packs in time for Father’s Day this Sunday. Click here for more information.

The warm weather also means I need my blotting paper more than ever!  So I have quickly placed an order for NYX Fresh Face Blotting Paper, after running out of my old pack some days ago. I also decided to grab the NYX Makeup Brush Cleaner since my makeup brushes were in need of a deep clean.
