BABY, I LOVE YOU

Thursday, 23 October 2014

Hey guys!

So I thought I would quickly update you with a couple of things I have been loving at the moment, since my last blogpost was quite a while ago. 

The first thing I have been loving is a really strange thing to love but I simply adore it. I recently purchased a small Marc by Marc Jacobs coin purse and it is the cutest and most adorable thing I own. I am in such adoration of it, literally mesmerised by it... For something so small, it makes me a whole lotta happy. I just keep my money and a few of my cards in this and it is a perfect size!




Boots recently had a 3 for 2 on L'oreal makeup and I ended up getting 3 of the Color Riche exclusive collection. I got two of the nudes; which were JLo's and Eva's and a red one by Blake (hottie). These literally are some of the nicest lipsticks I have ever tried, oh myy god! Soo good! I am super in love with the Blake one! The colour is perfect and I just love them all so much! I think these were about £8 each. 






Another beauty type product I have been loving is the Barry M nail paint in Berry Cosmo! I recently have just grown of the phase where I put nail varnish on, then pick it off with in the next 2 hours (fingers crossed I last) and this nail varnish is a one I am loving on my nails at the moment. It is such as nice dark wintery colour (winter is upon us, so it's all good) and I adore it! This was £2.99 I think.


 
As everyone (in the world) pretty much knows that Zoe Sugg aka Zoella recently brought out her own beauty range and omg I love everything so much! I actually bought both of the makeup bags, the body mist and the Shower Gel // Bubble Bath and Fizz Bar and they are the prettiest and nicest things I have every smelt! I have no words. I am currently using the Guinea Pig makeup bag as a pencil case that is holding all of my pro-markers and pens and shizzle for college and the eye on is holding my everyday makeup. I love love love....



SNOW FAIRY IS BACK.... and it is the first time I have ever actually managed to get a my hands on a bottle and I am yet to use it but I just though I would put this in there because oh my god, It smells absolutely amazing!!





Lately I have heard alot about Emma Hardie's Amazing Face Cleansing Balm and I jumped on the bandwagon and purchased a an Emma Hardie starter set that included a 50ml Cleansing Balm, Muslin Cloth and Face Moisturisor. I do not have one regret for buy this, It is simply the best thing I have ever put on my face. If you are looking for something that you can use on sensitive skin, its fabulous and great for hydration, especially during winter time.



This is such a random thing to put in here but YO to the LO I am doing it anyways. I GOT A SIGNED DEMI LOVATO CD. I BLOODY LOVE IT. I have never met her or anything and I feel this is the closest I have been to her (other than being in the same country for a short period of time). This has just been released and iss uhhhmaazzing! Do buy it on iTunes.. #reallydontcare 




It's starting to get really chilly outside, so I went to primark and bought the cutest mittens you could ever imagine. TAA DAA, GINGER BREADMEN, £2. That is all I am saying.



The last thing I have been really loving is my sketchers. I never actually thought I would own a pair of sketchers, but I now do and omg they are the most comfiest things ever. Wow. Normally I wouldn't go for pink or leopard print but there was just something about these that I just had to have then. Love, love, love...






I hoped you enjoyed reading this,, sorry for the crappy lighting in the pictures, please note I am doing this blog post at 10.30pm. Please follow me on twitter (laurynloganx) and instagram (laurynloganx) etc...

Rimmel London Apocalips Review

Sunday, 8 December 2013

Aloha,

A day late, but better than never. I did say I would try and do a blog post yesterday but it turned out I had a busy day. And then today, we had a christmas party at my dads and there was a lot of people and screaming children and just oh, overheating in my christmas jumper! So, I am only now getting around to writing this. (Whilst watching X-men: First Class -Jennifer Lawrence (perfection) wow)



I bought the Apocolips a few weeks ago just to try it out and for something different. Although its christmas time, I bought it in '400 Big Bang' which is a bright red. Normally for winter I would wear a dark lipstick, like a plum. But red is a christmas related colour so, who cares.



The liquid lipstick, last's for such a long time but I also find that it kind of stains your lips. Therefor, if I don't apply it correctly the first time (as I normally don't) I will walk around like a clown until it fades away.


When applied I find it goes a bit matte as well as having a tiny bit shine to it. When on the lips, it doesn't fully dry which means it is very easily smudged when coming into contact with things. I often find I run it all over my face. I don't even know how.  They are available in another several different colours; Apocaliptic, Big Bang, Nova, Stellar, Galaxy, Celestial, Luna and Nude Eclipse.



Overall, I think that the apocalips products are fantastic. The packaging is lovely and the colours are great also. I would recommend them.


Thanks for reading, Im sorry about the lateness of this post and the fact that my last ones have been so crappy. I promise to try and do better. -Lauryn xo



Ps. Here are picture's of my two favourite people ever. In the world. 















Moisturiser's Review

Tuesday, 22 October 2013

Aloha! 


I love my skin feel hydrated and soft and just nice. I mean, nobody really wants rough skin. (Well, in my opinion). I really have so many moisturisers it's unreal! But anyways..

Body Moisturiser's


The first body moisturiser that I really love is the Garnier Body: intensive 7 Days nourishing lotion in softening cocoa butter. Garnier have quite a lot of moisturisers, all of them having a different purpose. The Cocoa Butter one which I have, is for softening dry, rough skin. Normally I find when, I have had a shower and I am getting dried my legs and well everywhere basically gets really dry. So I found that using the Garnier Body after being in the shower really works for me. I personally find it a really good investment because it is cheap and works well, absorbs really quickly (I hate waiting for my moisturiser to soak in) and smells great. I don't actually find the cocoa smell overpowering but for those who are not really a fan of the cocoa smell, I think it may be a little over powering. I think you can also get it in different scents, like aloe vera.  I would definitely give it 5/5!

Soap and Glory are a great body care/beauty brand. I have soooo... many of their bath/body products. Like seriously I have got so many bottles of the shower gel and moisturisers to get through.  I swear I'm constantly receiving soap and glory gift bag (things).  But anyways, another body moisturiser I enjoy using is Soap and Glory Smoothie Star Deep Moisture Body Milk. (mouthful). My normal routine with this is to put it on in a morning when I wake up before doing my makeup (because I shower the night before). On the bottle it says to rub on the shoulders, knee's and shins after having a shower but I put it everywhere (naughty). I put it everywhere because its a great softening lotion without thick feeling. Although I do not particularly like the smell of it (Almond, Cocoa, Yoghurt, Oat and Honey) , it does suit it's purpose.  I would give this a 4/5.

The final body moisturiser is the Dove Summer Glow Nourishing Lotion. I find this moisturiser is great The summer glow smells really nice! (exceptionally nice for a fake tanning product) and does give a nice glowing colour when developed. Having said that, it is really difficult to get even coverage because of the late devlopment. I'm not sure if it is just me but sometimes it will work really well and others it is really streaky and just uneven. It is available for different skin tones yet I would not say it is entirely worth the cost. I think I would have to give it a 2/5.

Facial Moisturiser's


The first face moisturiser that I really love is the Garnier Skin Naturals: Essentials Hydrating Day Care. The cream makes my skin feel so soft even though I am prone to dry skin (especially in my T-zone area). I've used this particularly moisture cream and handful of times and I have found it really works on dry skin. I would normally apply it on a night leaving it to work its magic and then on a morning wash it off with my simple facewash. I do find it is quite a heavy moisture and can take a while to properly soak in and does have a thick feel to it. It smells great (of roses to be particular) and was a reasonable cost. I would definitely recommend this to anyone with dry skin.  Therefor I give it a 4/5.

My all time favourite face moisturiser has to be the Simple: Kind to Skin Hydrating Light Moisturiser. I think this may be my most favourite product in the whole world at the moment. This has "worked wonders" for my skin. It is amazing how well this works but also works with the Simple face wash (I actually just typed fash and was like 'oh that's not right, I just made a word up'). Yeah, So I really love simple's products. They are all very wow. The light moisture absorbs very quickly and does it purpose but also provides you skin the the 'Vitamins and Skin Loving Ingredients' it needs. Although it does not have a particular scent it lasts for up to 12 hours and does not have any thick feel to it because it is super light.  5/5!

Im so happy today because Better Together -EP by Fifth Harmony came out! Check it out ok, its is amazing! 



Thanks for reading guys!
