Smashbox On The Rocks

 


I know December seems like such a long time ago but as i am just starting my blog i thought i would write a review on this Smashbox On The Rocks Lip Gloss set that i brought after Christmas. Over the festive period i was obsessed with having dark lips and when i saw the shades of these glosses i had to get them as i thought they were winter perfect.

Morning Skincare Savior

I had read and heard so many good reviews about this Origins Ginzing Refreshing Scrub Cleanser so i had to see what all the fuss was about for myself and i even after just a couple of weeks i am loving it. This lemon and grapefruit smelling cleanser exfoliates and unclogs pores, I have been using it for about four weeks now and i have really noticed a difference in my skin already. Its easy to apply and becomes really soapy once exfoliated into the face and you can feel the micro beads working into your pores (as well as smelling amazing!)
Once washed off and dried my face is instantly brighter and i look and feel so much more refreshed, it has banished any dry skin i had and my face just feels so much smoother.  At £18.50 it is quite a steep pricetag however i feel the difference it has made to my skin it is well worth it, i cant go without it and i am definitely considering using more origins products.


What is your morning skincare savior?

Foundation Flashbacks


Whilst routing through my make up today i dusted the cobwebs off this old time classic (not literally) ... Playsticks by Benefit Cosmetics. Wow this foundation used to be my all time favorite and luckily i had enough left to dig onto my foundation brush to wear it. Playsticks is quite a light foundation but has pretty high coverage and lasts incredibly well with some powder on top to set it. Mine has ran out however it comes as a lipstick type product and you twist it up to get out the product and i used to draw it on my face (like i was in a tribe) and then blend it in with my foundation brush. It is still available from Benefit counters and i highly recommend Benefit super product.


Thanks for reading.
