Lee Stafford Dry Shampoo: Review

Lee Stafford Dry Shampoo: Review

Ever since I stopped using Batiste dry shampoo I have been trying to find a new one that actually works! I came across this one in Boots and decided to pick it up. I have loved Lee Stafford products for years especially the shampoo and conditioners. The scent of this is quite sweet but it does fade fairly quickly. It did make my hair look very clean and it left no powder or residue on my hair which I really made me like this even more because the recent ones I have tried that was what happened!

March Favourites!

March Favourites:

These are the products/items I have been loving in the month of March!



Victoria's Secret Pure Seduction Hydrating body cream:
This is my favourite scent from Victoria's secret and it is really long lasting on the skin and leaves you feeling very soft and moisturised! 

Seventeen Beehive Mirror Shine Lipstick:
I have just blogged about this in a previous post so im not going to talk too much about it. This is the only lipstick I have been wearing this month as it goes with all make up looks.

Collection Precision Colour lip liner in Clover Pink:
This is the perfect match to use with the seventeen lipstick! It makes the lips more defined and the lipstick longer lasing.

Nicki Minaj Pink Friday Perfume: 
I have had this perfume for a while now and love it, It smells fruity and fresh so perfect for spring!

Rimmel Clean Finish Foundation in Soft Ivory:
This shade is normally a little too dark for me but as I have been fake tanning this has been the perfect shade! I don't think this is available in the UK as I purchased it from  America and have never seen it over here!

Soap and Glory Butter Yourself Moisture Lotion:
I love this cream!! It leaves you skin so soft and it smells of oranges!! 

Primark Sunglasses:
I'm kind of a sunglasses hoarder! I saw these in Primark and they were only £2! bargain! They are  tortoiseshell and kind of a 'Cat eye' shape!

Lady Gaga The Fame Perfume:
I got this at Christmas and haven't really used it till now and I really like it, It is quite a heavy perfume/strong perfume.

MUA Colour blast Eye shadow in Stay:
I have been going for a more simple eye look this month and this has been a perfect base or worn alone.

Bourjois Laser Topping Nail Varnish in Sun Scales:
I have been using this polish on top of any nail varnish I have worn this month as it goes with any colour polish! 

Argan Oil Hydrating Hair Mask:
There is an individual review on this product in a previous post. I would highly recommend this product!

Empties #2

Empties #2:

As you can guess from the title these are my recent used up products!


Soap and Glory: Flake Away
I liked this but didn't love it! I much prefer the 'Scrub of your life' from soap and glory as I found that this one stung my legs but other than that it did the job!

Soap and Glory: The Righteous Butter
This is one of my favourite soap and glory products and I already have repurchased it!

Beyonce 'Heat' and 'Midnight Heat' body sprays:
I have has these for what seems like ages as the packaging is so big! These smell just like perfumes as you would have guessed! I'm not sure where you can buy this as I haven't seen it anywhere since I first bought it.

Rimmel 'I love lasting finish' nail polish in 'Disco ball':
I think that this is the first nail polish I have ever fully used up! This is great as top coat or alone as it is quite thick. I would definitely buy this again!

Rimmel 'Wake me up' Concealer:
I have talked about this a lot and I think that this may be my 3rd time repurchasing it! It is amazing!

Maybelline Baby Lips in 'Peach Kiss':
This is my favourite out of the baby lips range and its smells amazing. I would repurchase this product.

Dove 'Revive' body wash in Pomegranate & Lemon Verbena scent:
Dove body washes are always amazing! They create so many bubbles and smell so fresh and the scent is long lasting.

Bourjouis Healthy Mix Foundation:
This is my favourite foundation in the world!! It's a big statement but it is true!! I'am already half way through my repurchased bottle and I'm sure there will be many repurchases!

Beyonce 'Pulse' shower cream:
As you can already tell I love Beyonce!! This was in a gift set so im so sure if you can buy it separately but the scent was really nice and made my skin feel really soft.

Loreal Elnett Heat Protection spray:
I really like this spray, it does add volume and protects from the heat so that is a bonus! I am going to repurchase this again as I really liked it!

Seventeen Mirror Shine Lipstick (Beehive):

Seventeen Mirror Shine Lipstick (Beehive):

This lipstick has been mentioned or featured in quite a lot of blogs and videos so I thought I would give it a try! and it's amazing!! It's kind of a mix between a pink and a nude colour. The formula is really creamy so it goes on very easily and it is a glossy finish which is my favourite I find it more flattering than a matte finish to my complexion. The packaging to this is lipstick is so handy as it includes a mirror! This is the first lipstick I have used from Seventeen and im sure I will have to purchase a few more! There is a wide range of colours which is always a bonus!

Pro:Voke Touch Of Silver Shampoo and Conditioner:

Pro:Voke Touch Of Silver Shampoo and Conditioner:

After trying probably nearly every blonde shampoo/conditioner and treatment available! I came across this and im so glad I decided to get it! I had dyed my hair and was left with horrible brassy tones and nothing seemed to be really toning them down until I used this. You can use this daily if you want to but they also have a twice a week treatment available and I might have to get that too I love these that much! 

The scent is I think a kind of a bubblegum scent and it is long lasting as I can smell it on my hair when I move which I love! If you have blonde or white hair I definitely suggest you try this and it really does tone down brassiness, It is available from Boots and also B&M!

Along Came Betty Starlight Shine Highlighter: Review

Along Came Betty Starlight Shine Highlighter: Review

As you have probably guessed from some of my previous posts I am besotted with this brand and I think that this is the best product I have found from the range up to now as there is still more I want to get!! I love highlighters im always on the look out for a new one and I had never used one in stick form before so I thought I would try this. 
The product is kind of a champagne colour which I really like with a little shimmer. It is so easy to blend with your fingers or a brush, again this was only £1.50 which I can't believe as I would pay so much more for it! The highlighter is pigmented but can also be built up if you want a really intense highlight.

Dainty Doll Blushes:

Dainty Doll Blushes:

These blushes are marketed as blush for pale skin but I think that would suit most skin tones. All of the blushes are very pigmented and you only need to use a little, I have two powder and one cream blush. I'm still unsure about cream blushes in general as I don't think that they stay on my skin long enough but I love this one! It is a very similar colour to one of the powder blushes as you can see from the picture. I have the shades 001,002 and 004.



I believe that only limited places stock dainty doll such as Fragrance Direct and Amazon. The blushes blend very easily and are not of a chalky texture. I do recommend you trying one of these blushes as they feel so smooth on the skin. The blushes are also long lasting.

Current Favourite Skincare Products:

Current Favourite Skincare Products!
I have recently become obsessed with skincare products and these are the products that I have been using recently and that I really like so I thought I would share them with you. The main products I have been using are from Simple, I haven't really used any products from this brand before but I really like it. It says that it is fragrance free but I think that it does have faint scent and I'm not too keen on that but it's nothing major! After using these my face has been feeling very clean and soft.
The products are:
Moisturising face wash
Hydrating day moisturiser
Soothing toner
Revitalising eye roll on



The Along Came Betty range from Tesco is becoming one of my favourite ranges! I love the packaging and the products are amazing! I'm not going to go into too much detail on these as there will be an in depth review up on these soon.
The products I have are:
'All in a days work' Day cream
'The night shift' night cream

The last product is from the Boots Simply Sensitive range and its the hydrating eye cream. I have been using this now for quite a while, I have mentioned it in a previous post before and it is amazing! I had really dehydrated under eye area and now it is so smooth and soft with no sign of dehydration! I think everybody should have this product!

Charles Worthington Texturising spray: Review

Charles Worthington Volume & Bounce Texturising spray: 

I have seen quite a few reviews on this product and they were all positive so I decided to try it! I have tried a few texturising products that have worked but I wanted to try something new! This creates and holds volume, I didn't have to use hairspray with this like I did with some of the other I have tried. I love the scent of this too! I think it smells like sweets!!
It didn't leave my hair feeling sticky and it brushed out easily. I highly recommend this product, If you are looking for more volume! The price is £6.99 which is not too expensive as it is worth it!

ASOS and Boohoo Haul!

ASOS and Boohoo Haul:

This is my first clothing related post! I love fashion and thought I would share some aspects of my styles with you! ASOS has a sale on and I bought these dresses in that sale! Boohoo also had a discount on dresses and I have student discount so I couldn't resist! 
Most of my wardrobe is from ASOS and Boohoo, I think that they have gorgeous clothes especially dresses as they are all I wear! I dislike jeans, It is very rare that you will see me in jeans!!

The first dress is from ASOS and I spied it last year but never got round to buying it and when i saw in in the sale and it had an offer for an extra 10% off so I had to buy it! It has  a deep v shape back that is made from lace, This style of dress is my favourite ever I feel its is a very flattering shape. On the website it looked white but when it arrived it is kind of a more nude colour but I still love it! This dress was £21.50!

































Again this dress is lace and as you might have guessed I love lace dresses! This one is a lavender colour skater dress with a deep v back and 3 quarter sleeves. This was £12.50 which is a bargain as all ASOS dress are great quality.









































The first Boohoo dress is a smock style dress, I have a dress like this but with a darker colours and I wanted this as I think it is perfect for spring with these colours. These style dresses are so easy to wear. This was £10 as there was an offer on dresses but there are normally always offers on this website.





This is a first for me as I have never had a coordinating set before but I saw this on instagram and I just had to have it! I loved the colours and again it's perfect for spring/summer. The crop top has a wrap over back and the texture is woven so it kind of adds a different look to the outfit! I love the fact that both can be worn with different piece of clothing!



                                                         (Sorry about the bad picture)

Argan Oil Hair Mask: Review

Argan Oil Hair Mask: Review

My hair has been very dry since I last dyed it about 6 weeks ago and it has felt dehydrated and horrible! It was mostly the ends that were dry and I even avoided drying them with the hair dryer to see if that was the problem but it didn't seem to help. Since I have been using this my hair feels amazing! I can't believe this was only 99p it is worth a lot more!! There is a full range which includes shampoo, conditioner and other treatments and I think I will be going to get them all!!
It is an Argan oil hydrating treatment mask, It says that you can use this in between your shampoo and conditioner but I used it instead of my conditioner and it worked fine. I love the scent it is subtle but smells like the professional products used at the hairdressers!!

FOTD: All about the lashes!

FOTD: All About The Lashes!

Hey everyone! 
I have another face of the day for you, I love creating and reading these posts so I hope you like it!


I will start with products I have included before which are:

Rimmel wake me up foundation
Seventeen Photo Flawless primer
Seventeen Phwoarr paint
Along came Betty brwow
MUA  Undress your skin shimmer highlighter
Along came Betty Prieyemer


Stila 'In the light' Palette:
I did an individual review on this product if you would like to read that! but I used the colours Bliss, Bubbly and kitten! the pigment on these is absolutely amazing, you only need the tiniest amount! 

NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Sparkle Nude:
I used this as the base for my eye shadow but I cant be used on its own, I love this colour and it is very pigmented.

Benefit Hoola Bronzer:
I have the sample size of this but I am so impressed with it I will be getting the full size when it has finished! I was worried that this was going to be too dark for skin and look orange but it is perfect! 

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation:
This is becoming my favourite foundation out of drug store and high end! I love the dewy skin look and this achieves that perfectly!

Seventeen Make Your Mark Eye liner:
This eye liner is amazing! It is so black and easy to apply and it doesn't transfer on to your eye lid like some I have used!

NYX Blush in Peach:
NYX Blushes are great, very pigmented and I love this colour it is a lovely light pink colour. I think that it would suit any skin tone too! 

Benefit Bad Gal Lash Mascara:
I have just posted a review on this but I will say that it is fantastic!!

MAC Sunny Seoul Lipstick:
I forgot to include this in the photo but that is what I wore and it is one of my favourite mac lipsticks. The perfect pink colour!

Cherry Blossom lashes #01:
These lashes were a lot longer that they looked in the packet! I didn't think that they was going to suit my eyes as they are quite small but they were fine and I love them now! They are super long and super black! I recommend this to anybody as they were very easy to apply!

Benefit Bad Gal Lash: Review!

Benefit Bad Gal Lash: Review!

I first used this mascara about 5/6 years ago when I received a sample in a magazine and loved it but over the years I just completely forgot about it! Recently I bought a mini Benefit set from Boots with hoola, this mascara and something else which I can't remember! 
I haven't seen as many reviews on this mascara it always seems to be on the 'They're real' mascara but I love this one, I feel that it does lengthen lashes especially if you curl your lashes before applying, I have only just started curling my lashes and I can't believe I didn't start earlier! It makes the lashes really black and doesn't smudge underneath your eyes if worn on lower lashes. 
This mascara is definitely worth  try and also I would suggest you buy the sample sizes if you just want to try it out before you spend the money on the full size!

A Little Lush Haul!

A little Lush haul:
I saw on the Lush website that they had their Easter collection in store so I had to take a trip! I only purchased 1 item from the Easter range because there was too many to choose from and I couldn't decide! So I decided on these 4 products.



The first one I bought was the fluffy egg bath bomb which smells amazing! I think I bought this last year when it was out too, this smells very sweet, kind of like the snow fairy scent. I love this one and I wish they has this all year round!
Space Girl bath bomb: This is surprisingly the first time I have bought this one considering I always have a stock of bath bombs!! I'm not sure if im the only one but I think it smells of ribena!!
Rose bubble bar: I have never seen this one before so im not sure in it is new or a seasonal product, but im looking forward to using it!
Karma bubble bar: This one smells amazing as they all do! The scent is orange and a little lemon but not too overpowering!

I plan on going back to lush soon to pick up some more products because I had my eye on some more things!

Victoria's Secret Scents!

Victoria's Secret Scents:
I'm always in Victoria's Secret for ages because they have a vast amount of scents to choose from!! They all smell amazing but these are my favourite, The had an offer on the was 5 items for £30 then you get 2 free which I just couldn't resist! It's such a bargain as they individually cost between £9-£11. I highly recommend going into Victoria's Secret if there is one near you just to smell them!


The scents I eventually choose were Pure Seduction, Such A Flirt, Mango Temptation, Coconut Passion and Amber Romance. 
Pure Seduction is an old favourite of mine it smells amazing!! It smells fruity and floral. I also got the moisturising hand and body cream in the same scent.
Mango Temptation is one that I haven't seen before and it smells so fresh and clean! I bought the body wash in this, I haven't used a body wash from here before so I will see what it is like!
Coconut Passion as the name would suggest smells of coconuts!! This smell always reminds me of summer and that is why I like it!




I have the Such a Flirt in the body lotion so I thought I would buy the spray as it smells delightful it has star fruit in it and I love star fruit!!
Amber Romance is another new spray to me, This is probably the strongest out of the whole bunch, I love that they are really long lasting.
