    Plasma 27 Bio-Lifting Cell Restoring Mask

    I’ve tried a few products from Cosmetics 27 in the past and now I’ve had the opportunity to give the Plasma 27 Bio-Lifting Cell Restoring Mask a try. Read on for my review. This face mask might make you look like something from American Horror Story but what it lacks in looks it makes up for in skin benefits. The cloth mask is soaked (or impregnated if you prefer) in a super serum containing 100% natural ingredients that deliver lifting and firming effects to the complexion in the gentlest way. The Plasma 27 Mask is even recommended for very sensitive skin and can be used following laser or peel treatments…

    Why I Love NUXE UK

    I first discovered the joys of NUXE back in 2012 after I received a Space NK voucher for my birthday. After much deliberation, swatching and pondering, I decided on a large bottle of NUXE Huile Prodigieuse OR because it felt like a real treat – after all, a bottle of decadently shimmering, sparkly oil is not something I would usually spend my pennies on. Since then, I’ve tried skincare, cosmetics, fragrance and even a candle from the French brand and they remain a firm favourite. I check out the NUXE section every time I’m in a Space NK store but more often than not I order online from NUXE UK.…

    MAC Prep + Prime BB Compact Review

    I have been absolutely loving the MAC Prep and Prime BB Compact this summer. From what I’ve read, this little compact has been subject to fairly mixed reviews so I was initially a little sceptical – I needn’t have worried though because it now lives happily in my handbag and gets a lot of use. The compact is a solid cream formula that ‘illuminates’ and evens the skin and leaves a semi-translucent finish – perfect for sunnier days when you just can’t face a full on base. I ordered the MAC BB Compact online which is always a gamble when it comes to coloured bases, but I found a pretty…

    Maybelline Lasting Drama Black Shock Gel Liner Review

    It seems that people have been loving and loathing the Benefit Push Up Liner in equal measure so I figured, rather than risk spending the big money on something that might not work for me I’d try the more affordable drugstore version. I’ve used the Maybelline Eye Studio Gel Liner (the one in the pot) before but found I’m not disciplined enough to clean the little brush after every use and let’s just say that things got a little … crusty. I absolutely loved the gel formula though so I was pretty stoked when I saw that Maybelline had come out with another gel liner – this time with the…
