Seventeen liquid highlighters | Mini Review

Today I'm bringing you all the two products I have been loving from a glowing complexion. These two highlighters are both from Seventeen, which can be bought from Boots or Superdrug or the Seventeen website. They are such great value for money and I recently featured them in a blog post makeup haul with lots of other Seventeen makeup products which you can check out here. 

I have especially been loving these two highlighters as I am loving a dewy base for under my foundation as my skin is looking a lot drier in the recent cold whether! I also like to use it as just a highlight for just above my cheekbones, or mixed with foundation to make me look more luminous!  

The Tan Glow Liquid I have used the least at the moment, but I can't wait to use it next Summer to add a nice glow to my skin, as I think if I used it now I would look a bit too shimmery especially as it's getting so cold I think I will get a lot of wear out of it next Summer! I have used it two or three times when the weather has been nicer and have loved it then so I can't wait to use it more in the warmer months, this one can also be used three ways but it wouldn't look as subtle as the one on the right. I'm sure it'll give a beautiful bronzed glow, perfect for next Summer!

The Skin Wow Highlighter, is more white, and gives you more of an awake highlight and makes me look a lot more alive! And now as it's winter weather or coming up to it my skin gets super dry and this brings back some life into it. I have used it all three ways, as a primer under my foundation, I really love the way it looks subtle but instantly makes me look more awake and full of life. I have used it mixed with foundation and I think you have to use a little more of this than your foundation if you want to look nice and dewy, but it looks lovely like this too, not too over the top but gives the appearance of beautiful and radiant skin. I have also used it as a highlight on the highest points of my face, so above my cheekbones, on my forehead, chin, and just above my lip (or cupid's bow) whatever you want it to be called haha!

I would probably give them an 8.5 out of 10. They are amazing, lovely consistencies to blend easily, they aren't too expensive, the packaging looks really nice with them much like all the other Seventeen products!

I really enjoy using these highlighters and for a good value drugstore highlighter they are definitely worth the money and would look beautiful on pretty much any skin tone or colour. They can be quite subtle, or built up to be quite out there so if you like the sound of them I would recommend them to anyone wanting to try a drugstore highlighter. 

Do you have a favourite highlighter? 

Whether it's Drugstore or High End I would love to know! 

Top Three Perfumes

I am without a doubt a girl who loves perfume, every single day without fail I will be wearing one, as a girl who loves makeup, clothes, shoes you name it I love it! So how could I not love perfumes too... even if they are super expensive and do make a big dent in my bank balance!

So today I will be sharing a quick post of my three favourite perfumes, all in the picture above, so these three are my most used in my collection and even though I only have two more perfumes these are the ones I always go back too! So stick around if you want to read more about them!

So the first two of my favourite perfumes are by Marc Jacobs and I think if you haven't heard of his perfumes you must be living under a rock, because they are without a doubt some of the most prettiest and Instagram worthy perfumes and the bottles are just beautifullll! 

Now the Daisy dream is probably my most favourite one and I'm so in love with the scent it's lovely and floral but just smells a lot more as if it suits my age more than the Daisy perfume on the right. Mainly because I think Daisy dream is sweeter and I love sweet scents but nonetheless I do love them both! It's a very elegant scent and is very girly which I love it has some blackberry and jasmine thrown in there and it seriously smells divine!

Daisy is a lovely perfume which I think is perfect for most ages, I feel like my bottle did go down very quickly and I don't know if you can see but it's practically empty, I'm thinking this is because my mum freqently stole it off me and I would find it on her dressing table, so it is definitely a scent suited to a lot of ages, and is a nice one to wear anywhere. It is described as a sunny fragrance and I would agree, the daisy scent makes it super summery and warm and a happy scent!

Now Chloe, is a lovely scent, not at all like the other two in my opinion, I think it is such a lovely fragrance if you want to feel more grown up as it has a lovely light floral scent but can be quite strong when first applied, the things that I love love love about this one is it's lasting power it just lasts so well on my skin, and I'm always getting complements on the perfume I'm wearing it usually is this one! The scent is a mixture of peony and rose and a few others but these are the ones I love the most and make the fragrance so so lovely!

The next perfume on my wishlist is definitely the Peony and Blush Seude by Jo Malone it smells SO  good!

Mini Haul | Rimmel Kate Moss Lipsticks

These Lipsticks are SO Gorgeous! They are the Rimmel Kate Moss lipsticks, and I bought them recently from Superdrug, for around £4 each on an offer, which was a total steal as I have four other Kate Moss Lipstick's which you can take a look at in my Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick's Collection here, which I will have to update soon as I have these beauties to add!

So the one on the Left hand side is the number '03' it's a gorgeous muted pinkish brown/ it is a lovely nude colour and I feel it really complements my skin tone well and I'm sure would complement a lot of skin tones too, as I have been using them for a few weeks now but took the pictures previously (but who doesn't like taking pictures of their new untouched makeup haha am I right) They are both so pigmented and smell amazing for drugstore lipsticks as I've had a few that I hated the smell so much I can barely use them! *cough Bourjois rouge edition velvet's*

The one on the Right hand side is '38' which I have heard a lot about this year especially from beauty guru's on YouTube I have been lusting over it for ages and ages and I'm so happy I finally have it and I'm not disappointed I'm been so obsessed with using it as it looks so pretty and complements my lip shape, I've only been using it for a few weeks and within the first two applications I knew it was love... 

Left To Right - Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in '03', Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in '38',

As I previously said I love the Rimmel Kate Moss Lipsticks and they are the Brand I always go back to and they never fail to impress me with the quality and how beautiful all the lipsticks apply and last, they are probably my favourite drugstore lipsticks along with the L'Oreal Eva's nude lipstick! *heart eyes emoji* but they are so comparable to Mac, and other high end lipsticks I have used and they are less than half the price or even a third of some expensive lipsticks I own!

Have You Ever Tried Rimmel Kate Moss Lipsticks If so, what are your favourites?!

My Three Part Skincare Routine - Moisturising

As it's getting a little colder now I thought I would bring my skincare routine to my blog and rave about three of my favourite skincare products- although of course they are my favourites or I wouldn't put them in this haha!

Now this is all about the products I use to moisturise, so if your looking to see what I take makeup off with/face masks I use I will be doing a separate post on these soon!

So I start off by moisturising in the mornings, sometimes I use a face scrub but not always, so I will just be telling you about the products I use religiously and ones I never miss out at least try to not! 

The moisturiser I use in the mornings is the Garnier Moisture Match in 'Goodbye dry' and it just does that! It feels quite thick when you squeeze the moisturiser out of the tube, but it really isn't very thick and sinks in relatively quickly considering it really does help combat my dry patches which I find not much actually helps! I love it because it doesn't really have a scent just a moisturiser scent, which is great for me as products with strong fragrance can irritate my unbelievably sensitive skin! So if you're like me and react to most products you should try this I hope it will work for you all too with dry skin!

So I only really take care of my skin thoroughly in the mornings and evenings, I do use other products to take off makeup and cleanse, so you'll have to wait for a few blog posts before I show you all.

In the evenings I use my Avon Cocoa Butter Face cream which is my fave moisturiser to use overnight as I feel it really softens my skin and leaves it feels baby soft in the morning -which is the best feeling ever am I right? It takes a while to dry and absorb into my skin but it's all worth it for the baby bottom soft face I gain the next day. haha. It works magic on me really and I wasn't expecting to love a moisturiser so much and not to mention how divine the smell is... I could eat it!

Then when I'm needing a bit of moisture under those eyes where the hefty eye bags lay, I use the Simple Soothing Eye Balm which is a recent skincare discovery but I'm not dissapointed I feel like it really makes my eyes less puffy and less tired so if I put it on at night even if I don't get much sleep at least my under eyes aren't the ones suffering. Love this stuff!

So all of these products altogether cost around £10 depending on offers I got them all with, I think that's pretty good for how much I love all of these three skincare products. I recommend any of them if not all, but I have combination but quite dry skin at the same time, and blemish/acne prone skin and since nothing works to improve the appearance of my skin I just use products targeted at my skin type which is mostly dry. 

Hope this interested a few of you,

September Favourites

I thought as I don't even think I've done a favourites post (even if I have) I would do one this month, as I've loved so much! well last month now, considering its October 1st but yeah, so these are the  most 'loveable' (I think that's the word) items I haven't been living without over the past month or so!

So I have the Zoella scrubbing me softly body scrub, The seventeen skin wow highlighter, Garnier micellar water, a beautiful berry red Avon nail polish, the Seventeen Contour Kit and a Makeup Revolution Lip Lava, so keep reading if you want to know why I have been loving them all so very much! 

So firstly the Zoella scrubbing me softly, body scrub smells so so lovely, it's not too overpowering like I find some scrubs are and it's really great for prepping my skin for fake tan if I want to use one or even a gradual tan it was features in my Fake Tan Faves post if you want to read that I have a more in depth review of it on there!

To buy it from superdrug I believe it was around £7-8 so it isn't cheap...well for a scrub, but I find a little goes a long way so that's how I justify it and oh the smell of it too! *mmm it smells amazing*

The Seventeen skin wow I have been using for about two weeks now and I'm loving it, I LOVE highlighting at the moment and I feel like I can't wear makeup without it anymore! It makes my makeup look fresh and makes me feel like I look more awake too, if that possible even makes any sense? It can be used as a normal highlight to add a glow to the high points of your face, or it can be mixed with your foundation, or just applied as a primer, I have also loved using it as a primer, it's great for when my skin feels dry as I want it to look more dewy and basically the opposite of dry, to look dewy and to make my skin look better than it feels, especially in the winter weather I think I will be using this a lot! 

I have been loving the Garnier micellar water, which let's face it you probably do as well since I swear every has it now haha! It is amazing though but I won't babble on about it as so many people have it would just be a repeat of what you have probably heard already... 

All I will say is it's around £5 and it's amazing!

My Avon Nail polish is in 'Cherry Jubilee' it is such a lovely reddy/purple colour and looks so pretty on my nails, it actually looks exactly like the bottle which some nail polishes don't look exactly the same but this does and I'm happy about this as it looks lovely on my nails for a good 4-5 days!

The last Seventeen product in this favourites is the Define and Conquer Contour kit, it is a lovely highlighting and contour duo, the contour colour is lovely, the only downside is mine is in medium and has to be built up quite a lot to show up on my skin, but I love the product when it's on my skin and the highlighter doesn't look fake, it looks quite natural but you can tell you skin is looking a bit more glowy!

My last product for this favourites I have been wearing throughout this month, it is the Makeup revolution Lip Lava in 'Tremor' it's a nice pinky shade, and is like a liquid lipstick but it doesn't dry very quickly, so that means it's moisturising and looks so nice and glossy on but isn't sticky, so it looks like a lipgloss but is very pigmented and is a lovely pinky liquid lipstick and I'm loving it for £2.99 I want to try some more of them!

What are your makeup/skincare or random favourites of the month of September?!
