3 To Try Under £10

At heart, I will forever be a 'drugstore' girl. No matter how beautiful luxury products are, my budget and brain always go back to products from the like of Superdrug and Boots. Saying this, I tend to always go for the same brands including Maybelline, L'Oreal and Rimmel. But recently I've decided to branch out, try different brands and see what else the drugstore offers. Everything from foundation to eyeliner, there is just so much out there. Over the past few weeks, I've been loving these three products in particular. All from brands that I have tried in the past but products I wouldn't necessarily pick up from them. 

Bedside Beauty Staples

Every night I say to myself 'tonight you're going to have an early night, its a long day tomorrow/you  have to get up early'. Every night this never goes to plan, the reason behind it is because I waste so much time getting ready for bed. My whole night routine from going upstairs to actually getting into bed and going to sleep, is such a long process. I love to mess around and take all the time in the world, even though my eyelids can't stay open...

Dermalogica #MyFaceMyStory

It has taken me years to realise that good skin doesn't happen over night, it takes time for your skin to become used to a product, and for a product to work. Some work miracles overnight and others need time. A few weeks ago I went down to my local salon has my skin analysed by Dermalogica expert. 

The whole process took no more than twenty minutes and started by asking me questions about my skin. The lifestyle I live, health issues, sun tolerance and then using a unique technique to perform a visual examinaton of my skin. Using the old tradition of chinese facial diagnoisis, the skin expert divided my skin into 14 different zones and examined each zone throughly and noted down what she saw on a prescription sheet. 

This sheet was then for me to keep and see my skin at a glance, with all its issues present. These included breakouts, hyperpigmentation and the unknown to me, dehyrdation. From this she outlined the products that are best suited to my skin and why. Today, I've got a review of some of the products that were recommended and how they've worked and not worked for my skin. 

Essentials for Oily Skin

Having oily skin is an absoutle nightmare, you have to find products that last till midday or there abouts before having to retouch and check on the shine. Then there's the battle of breakouts, large pores and basically every skin problem possible. Over the past few months, along with some amazing skincare bits my oily skin has been tamed and no shine seems to appear until 6pm in the evening aka home time! 

Becoming a Savvy Shopper with Dealspotr

Before I ever buy anything online or order a takeaway, I always do a quick google to look for the best deals and voucher codes avaiable. 99% of the time there aren't ones that fit the amount I've spent or the area I live in. It's a constant circle of trying to find something. A few weeks ago I joined Dealspotr, the hot new site that promises to save you money whilst making you money at the same time. 

Achieving A Bad-Ass Glow

No matter how much I told myself that there is no need to order the new glow kit, guess who did? 🙋🙋After seeing a hundred and one pictures of it and videos talking about it, there was something inside of me that just had to have it. For so long, I was very much on the fence. This is the second thing from ABH that I have tried and without trying any other glow kit - I've gone straight in for this one. Iqra who's just fabulous,was also on the fence and when she caved, I ended up caving too. But was it worth the price tag and hall of fame reputation?
