Batiste Plumping Powder

Hi Everyone! How are we all? Ive been uber busy with Uni work this week and quite frankly I think I deserve a break! I only have 2 weeks to go then I'm done with uni forever (wah!/yay!)

On Monday one of my lovely friends came down to visit for the day, we trekked to Brighton and got very wet. But I bought some gems from super drug as its their 50th Birthday and they were having a paaarrrttty (they're weren't  but theres lots of deals on)!


Anyway one of the gems I picked up was the Batiste Plumping Powder. The powder is designed to give you big voluminous hair without the need to backcomb. Which is amazing because my hair is so fine and limp it doesn't back comb easily and normally falls out. With this all you need to do is sprinkle the powder on to your hair. 
At first it seems a bit daunting sprinkling it over your head as you are not to sure how quickly it'll come out, but I just keep the pot moving while doing so and only a little bit comes out. you then give  your head a little massage and ta-dah you have massive hair!


You don't need loads of this product, otherwise you end up with very unmanageable, sort of matted hair which is never great. I don't 100% love the feel of this product in my hair, but I haven't really used anything like it before so this may be why. But I can put this aside as it does produce good results.

Please excuse all facial expressions!

Im not sure if ill use this every day as I feel like I would need to wash it everyday which I don't like doing (if I wash my hair everyday its gets thin and ratty). But I know I'll tie this product into my hair care routine so it is regularly used along with the rest of my hair products.

This product is such a good find and I'm annoyed at myself for thinking these plumping powders would be a bit wishy- washy. However I've been proved wrong and the price of this is definitely a winner too!


If you fancy giving this ago you can find it at Boots online here or in store. Or pop in to Superdrug and at the moment its half price!

Have you tried any Plumping Powders if so what did you think?

Holiday Outfits Part 1

Holiday look books. Do people even like these? For those of you who dont know I took a late holiday to Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt to catch some rays! I wouldn't say this was a complete look book because I didn't document every single item of clothing I wore. But I do have a handful of outfits which I loved wearing and putting together. This will probably feature over 2 or 3 posts just so it isn't a heavy read!  First Up ....Swimwear!! The bikini. Yes it's similar to the Triangl bikinis which rocked my Instagram newsfeed for the majority of last summer, I think the colour and style is fun and laid back. This bikini came from Missguided and in terms of fit I was really surprised. Normally I struggle with sizing and I very apprehensively bought a size 10, normally the top part is far to small for me. But a massive thumbs up to Missguided and myself for fitting into the bikini top perfectly! There was also a gorgeous baby blue and peach bikini identical to this which I

MOTD and products used.

Hi Everyone I thought Id do a Make up of the day, and show you some of the products I use on a regular and not so regular basis. I'm also going to rate the products out of 10. Close up of eyes and contouring So these are majority of products used (bar brushes and one of my broken blushers) sorry for rubbish photo iPhones ay?  These 3 are my go to products for eyes. Products - Skin Based Illamasqua Hydravei l (black pot image below) Its in lots of my posts and it just helps hydrate and set the skin up for makeup. I love it, and I do get compliments when I wear it so it must be good. 10/10 Maybelline Baby Skin - Instant pore eraser? hmm I didn't hold out much hope for this product as I didn't really like the Baby Lips Maybelline bought out a while back. I actually think this product is pretty good and you get quite a bit for the money you pay. I think it does help smooth skin ready for foundation. 6/10 Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum - its

M&S Autograph Gel Eyeliner

Image
As I'm sure you're all aware gel eyeliner has been sat on all the aisles of drug stores for a few years now, some people love it, while others just don't get along with it. I personally love it... sometimes, I have a habit of not putting the lid back on the bloody things, which leads to them drying out and being completely useless and I've tried the youtube tricks to get my gel liners back to their original gel state and it just doesn't turn out the same as before. I've tried Revlon (meh) and Maybelline (okay), and faced up to the fact that I'm not at all responsible for a higher end gel liner like Mac or Bobbi Brown as I'd just forget to put the lid back on thus ruining them forever! However on one occasion I got bored of my mum looking at the home wear section in M&S and took myself off to their make up stand, and what did I come across? Autographs Ultimate Wear Gel eyeliner. I thought I'm in need of a new Eyeliner why not try this?!
