Testing Products

Hola lovelies

I've recently purchased a few no.7 items to try out. No.7 is a makeup and skin are brand by boots and one I've never really taken an interest in. However since working in boots for the last month I've had to learn about the products and things because its my job basically. In the process I've found myself eyeing up lots of products and it has resulted in this. 

First off here I have two samples.

On the left is the new no.7 cc cream. I have a sample of this because staff were asked to take one basically. It's a way for us to get to know the product on a more personal level and really find out about how it works. If you want to try it and want a sample in sure any member of staff would happily give you one. They would in my store anyway.

Secondly I have the colour calming primer. I quite often have a rather red face and I also have major problems with my face makeup staying on. So all in all this seems perfect. I wasn't sure wether I wanted to but the full size so my lovely colleague who is our beauty consultant gave me a sample! Again if you want to try any of the liquid products like foundations primers etc. I'm sure you could easily get one. 

Next I bought these two liquid eyeliners in such bright colours! I love it! I've swatches these on my hands quite a few times for customers and I can never get it off after so I think these are going to be extremely long lasting. These are the " stay precise liquid liner" the top colour is mermaid and underneath is sky high.

One of the main reasons I bought these was to actually get the deal that no7 is currently having which is if you buy 2 cosmetic products from the brand you get a free gift worth £30 

I love trying new products so this sounded fabby to me 

The first two things that come in the free goody bag are the triple protection tinted moisturiser in fair/medium and the airbrush away primer. Again I'm excited to try the primer loads! I want to see if it makes a difference to the staying power of my foundation!

 Next is a mascara. It's the extreme length waterproof in black

 Then a lovely sparkly lilacy pink but still neutral eyeshadow which doesn't tell me the shade unfortunately

And lastly a high shine lip gloss in coral kiss

I haven't tried any of these products yet so I'm super excited to try them all out and see how they all work! I think I'll do another post in the next week all about what I think of the products like little mini reviews.

So really this is just a preview of what's to come

Have you tried any no.7 products? If you haven't they are definitely worth a look. I never looked at it before I started working there and it's a shame because they have some fantastic products!

June favourties!

Hola chicas :) 

Today I'm sharing with you my favourites from the last month. I don't have that many because I didn't actually try many new products!

Ill start with my perfume favourite. It's the Marc Jacobs Daisy eau so fresh sunshine First of all it's in an absolutely beautiful bottle as are all the Marc Jacobs perfumes and smells so lovely. The Marc Jacobs website describes it as "A playful floral fruity, Daisy Eau So Fresh Sunshine reinterprets the classic Daisy Eau So Fresh with a bolder, fruitier twist. Colorful and energetic, the fragrance radiates sun-drenched juiciness with an addictive fruity top. The heart is an intoxicating breeze of airy, uplifting jasmine petals that dries down to a smooth, velvety base of warmth and subtle sweetness. 

Top Notes: Strawberry, Apple Blossom, Pink Grapefruit 
Mid Notes: Jasmine Petals, Day Lily, Rose 
Base Notes: Violet Leaf, White Oak Moss, Amber Wood"

 Next I have my Laura mercier foundation which I love! I'm in the shade rose ivory. This foundation is high coverage without looking Cakey and it's also really long lasting. Although its pricey a little bit really goes a long way which has to be taken into consideration as well

For blusher I have been loving this nyx blush in the shade peach. The nyx blushes are beautiful. So pigmented and they are so cheap and cheerful. This just gives a gorgeous colour on my cheeks that blends so easily!

I have two concealers but they are the same in different shades. It's the collection lasting perfection concealer in shade 1 fair and 2 light. I use fair under my eyes to brighten everything up and use light to conceal my blemishes. These two work so well together and I highly recommend them!

Vaseline has been my life saver this past month. My lips have been so chapped due to all the extra work I've been doing. Working really dries out my lips because of the hair conditioning in the shop so this has been fantastic. 

 This lipstick is my absolute all time favourite. It's from l'oreal And its the caresse I think in blushing sequin. Unfortunately these aren't out in the uk! I wish the were because I would have every single one! They are just so perfect. Bright but not in your face. Shiny and moisturising also long lasting. Just perfection in a bottle.

Last make up product is this mascara from no7. This is the new say perfect mascara and I absolutely love it. The brush just separates your eyelashes so well and makes them look super long and almost false lash like which I love. I also love that it's waterproof but comes off with just warm water on a cotton pad help on your eye for 30 seconds. It's just great waterproof without the hassle of taking it off. (Review here)

 Last but not lease I have a hair product. This is the Aussie dual personality curl definition and soft feel serum. I put this in my hair after I've let it dry naturally to calm down any frizz and if really works! It's a good price too! Definitely worth checking out!

 What are some f your Favouties from this past month? 

Hope your having a wonderful day and happy Independence Day to all the Americans!
