BodyShop face masks.

I own three BodyShop masks and I seriously love them!
All the masks are between £8 and £11 for which you get a tub of 100ml which, although sounds a little pricey, you easily get 20 applications (I normally get about 30ish) which leaves those £1 masks looking surprisingly expensive!
The BodyShop currently has 7 different masks meaning there really is something for every skin type.

Seaweed Ionic clarifying mask
The seaweed range is designed for oily/combination skin, so, since my skin is normal, this is perfect for clearing up any break outs and controlling oil if for some reason my skin is playing up.
This particular mask is also incredibly cooling with a really distinct scent.
(I’ve actually repurchased this mask which just goes to show how much I love it!)

TeaTree face mask
This particular mask is meant for blemish skin however I don’t find this does anything to any blemishes, rather it’s just very soothing, calming and always just balances my skin out. It also doesn’t become hard when it dries like the seaweed mask
(which is a shame as I actually quite like the feeling of the mask drying, pulling out impurities)

This is defiantly the classic bright green, slightly scary, mask! The scent was at first a little overpowering however I quickly got used to it and I actually really like the scent.

Nutriganics smoothing mask
This is my least used, not because I don’t like it, but because I only need this in winter when my skin becomes a little dry. It’s targeted at people with the first skins of aging which doesn’t include me, however I still love this for lightly hydrating my skin.
I’d recommend this to anyone more mature or with sensitive or dry skin as this always works a treat for me when my skin is a bit under the weather!

Hope you’ve enjoyed!! x

(You can always ask for a sample in store if you just want to try out a mask and see how it works!)

Favourite Lip combo

This is quite a quick little post as I just wanted to show you my current favourite lip combo which I’ve been wearing a lot recently(and that’s saying something as I tend to mix up what I wear on my lips all the time and rarely stick to the same look)
(you can, as always, click on the picture to make it larger)
This is a really long lasting, glossy look which I think is super wearable as it’s not too dark to wear during the day but it’s not a classic nude either :)
I just use three products
Bobbi Brown lip liner in Soft Rose
Revlon Colorstay Ultimate long lasting Lipstick in Premier Pink
Eyeko lipgloss in Mayfair – which I have a review on here.
(All these products actually look lovely on their own too)
(L-R Bobbi Brown Soft Rose, Revlon Premium Pink and Eyeko Mayfair)
Because you have a lip liner, a lipstick and a lipgloss all of which add some colour to the finished look this lip lasts for ages as even once the gloss has worn off the lipstick is designed to be long lasting and will normally last the whole day with a lip liner underneath!

I normally just carry the lipgloss and the lip liner in my bag and touch it up during the day to keep the lines looking fresh- but I only touch it up maybe once in a 6 hour day!
