Love Me Beauty - Edition 3

I skipped the June edition of the Love Me Beauty box and thought twice before deciding to order for July. I already have so many cosmetic and beauty products and I don't know if I would ever end up using them all. I've mentioned it previously but what I really like about Love Me Beauty is that you can pick from 3 different menus, choosing what suits you best. When I saw this months brands and offers, I just couldn't resist!

 I chose Edition 3.


 

Inside there were 6 products, 5 of them full size. 



Lashem Lash Enhancing Serum - RRP £40 (3.5ml), mine is a sample size 2ml.

I have been thinking of getting a eyelash serum for a while but as they are quite expensive I didn't want to buy anything before actually trying the product out first. That is why beauty box samples are so useful! This lash enhancing serum nourishes and conditions. The result is longer looking lashes within 2 weeks. A thin line of serum applied on a clean skin to the base of your eyelashes in one continuous stroke. It should be used only once a day, as the serums long lasting ingredients keep working long after applying. 


OFRA Pressed Eye Shadow in 'Gold Rush' - RRP £8.80, full size product 

This eye shadow is one of the colours from OFRA's 'Diamonds are Forever' palette collection. It has a nice shimmer colour, which makes eyes sparkle like diamonds!



OFRA Eyeliner in 'Black' - RRP £7.60

A water resistant pencil, which can be used on the upper and lower lash line. This pencil is suitable for the most sensitive eye area. It is also very creamy and can be smudged for the perfect smoky eye. With a synthetic beeswax base, this eyeliner is smooth and soft with a long lasting application. 


 

So Susan Flutter Mascara - RRP £14.95

This mascara is new to the So Susan line. I have been very happy with their products so far and am very excited to try out this mascara. I am very funny with mascaras and so far I have preferred Max Factor over anything else. As I opened it, I noticed that the brush is a bit too short and small for my lashes. The general, small brushes are best for short lashes. I was also expecting more thick bristles to help separate lashes and achieve volume. I prefer thick bristles as they can get close to the eyes and grab each and every little lash easily. Well, I will still give it a try!





So Susan Dual Brow Powder - RRP £11.95

This smudge-proof dual-shade compact brow powder is infused with Aloe Extract and Carrot Seed Oil and perfect for a sensitive skin around the eyes. I have already used it on my brows and for the first time I think I didn't do too badly. I need to practise though, as I mainly use a eyebrow pencil and powder made my brows look much more thicker. 





The Teashed Skinny Tea 20-whole leaf green tea silky pyramid teabags - £3.50

This is a packet of 20 green tea bags which are renowned for boosting metabolism. The card included says that the whole leaves used inside the pyramid silky bags give a rich rounded flavour and they do not have that bitter taste like many other green teas, which are made from the 'dust' of tea leaves. I do not believe in any kind of skinny-mini-me teas or tea detoxes or restricted diets, so I am not going to expect anything else to happen other than having a nice warm brew!


Overall I am very pleased with the box and as it is worth around £60 all together, I am extremely happy I paid only £10 + postage & packing!

Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide - Starting again

The last time I posted about my workout regime was in November last year when I started the Kayla Itsines BBG healthy eating plan and 12 week workout sessions. I think I got up to week 4 before I lost my motivation because of illness and Christmas. My friend Marianne and I started BBG again on the 5th of January with thousands of other girls and joined #thekaylamovement and #kaylasarmy to share our journey along this painful but exciting path.  You can read my first post about the BBG programme here as I am explaining a bit more on how I 'found' Kayla and how the training works.  I have done BBG for 5 weeks now (the first 2 weeks we did pre-training) and I'm feeling quite positive. I've not seen much progress myself - I still have my weak areas like tummy, bum and thighs. I do feel much stronger though! I'm doing all of the workouts properly, I have strength in my legs and arms - it is quite easy to do 10 push ups and continue with triceps and mountain clim...

The Body Shop Manchester Arndale Bloggers Event

I've been blogging for almost two years now but I'd still consider myself a newbie in the blogging world. On Thursday I had the chance to go to my first bloggers event at The Body Shop in Manchester to celebrate the release of an amazing new range on the 5th of May, including new bronzing items and a couple of vitamin C products! I was wearing my butterfly bow-tie brooch to the event and styled it with a white short sleeved shirt. It was a closed door event, so it was a good opportunity to browse all of the products and explore the new ones thoroughly! The event started at 8pm and I was one of the first ones to arrive. We were welcomed with milkshakes, fruit cocktails and lemonade. I went for water - shy and modest! There was also a white chocolate fountain and strawberries we had the chance to enjoy. The event was carried out by Fiona - she is a skin expert at the Manchester store. Everyone was able to get personal skin consult...

Lilla Rose Flexi Clips

  Today I want to talk a bit about my hair and my recent purchase from a company called Lilla Rose . Lilla Rose is a unique hair and jewellery accessory company from the US. They have many different hair items but I was more interested in their beautiful and well-known Flexi Clip. I got myself two of these - Autumn's Delight in size small and Festive Leaf in extra small. Before ordering I made sure of which size would fit best for my flat and thin hair.       Both of my Flexi Clips look stunning. The beaded wire is quite bendable but strong, the sliding pin is adjustable and they feel high-quality. I chose mine in a copper/rust shade but there are also silver and gold shades and so many different styles and colours available. As I recently cut my long hair short, I don't have many options with styling. I usually just wear my hair in a ponytail or a half ponytail. Autumn's Delight fits all my hair between the clip and Festive Leaf is perfect for a smal...
