Brush on False Lashes | Review

Today's post is a review on 'LashFibres' brush on false lashes. 
The false lash look is a preferred look for many women but having the time to put them on is time consuming and difficult.
So that's when 'LashFibres' is needed! 'LashFibres' are brush on fibres that instantly give incredible length and amazing volume that can be used with your favourite mascara.



  • To start off the application of 'LashFibres' a coat of your usual mascara needs to be applied to your eyelashes...



  • Then while your mascara is still wet, the lash fibres should be applied whilst looking down into a mirror to prevent the fibres falling into your eyes.



  • Before applying the final coat of your usual mascara, you will need to wait 30 seconds for the fibres to bond to your lashes.


I have noticed that after using 'LashFibres' on my eyelashes, they appear to be thicker and longer giving a false lash appearance.

I didn't here but I usually use eyelash curlers before applying any mascara to my eyes so I have also taken a picture of using 'LashFibres' after curling my lashes.


'LashFibres' can be purchased from Superdrug (£9.95)

I love... Product | Reviews

Hello,
Today's post is a product review and I have three products from the brand 'I love...'.

The three products that I have, are the Mango & Papaya refreshing body spritzer (£2.99), Blueberry & smoothie bubble bath & shower creme (£2.99) and the Raspberry & Blackberry super soft hand lotion (£2.99)




Firstly, I find the design on the packaging of these products pretty and girly which is something I really like about the brand.
When using the 'Blueberry & Smoothie' bath and shower creme as a bath product, I found that initially it didn't bubble up very well but after a bit of swishing around the water lots of lovely bubbles were created. The scent of the product is gorgeous just like, blueberries! I wouldn't recommend this to someone who doesn't like sweet scents but for me it was perfect. 
The product left my skin feeling very soft and beautifully scented for a long time after!

When using the 'Mango & Papaya' refreshing body spritzer, I instantly found the scent of this too sweet even though I love sweet scents. Even though the scent isn't my favourite I found that it did last a long time. Personally I think this product might be enjoyed more by a young teenage girl, just starting out with cosmetics and fragrances but can equally be enjoyed by anyone if they love the sweetness of the scent!

The last product is the 'Raspberry & Blackberry' hand lotion. This product also has the sweet scent but one that I really enjoy. The lotion is fairly thick and moisturising and overall, is perfect for keeping in a handbag for when out and about. 


Overall I really liked these products and think they would be a nice gift/stocking filler, as they also come in pre packed, smaller gift size bottles.
The products can be bought from Superdrug.

FakeBake | Review

Today's post is another product review, I will be reviewing two products by the brand FakeBake, 'Amplify' (£18) and '5 Minute Mousse'(£19.99).


The first product that I'm going to review, is 'Amplify', Amplify is a multi purpose, skin enhancing daily gradual tan.
The information on the packaging states, that it has 'a unique formula that works in three ways to INTENSIFY the colour and life of your tan using added tanning actives creating a golden glow'. 

Personally I find it misleading that it says 'daily gradual tan' because when I think of a daily gradual tan I think of something that day by day builds up the tan, without the need to already have a tan but with the information provided I would class this product as something that prolongs a tan. 

The information also states 'it also contains a natural plant based agent to optimise and BOOST your skins natural tanning process by encouraging melanin production' this suggests to me that this product should be used before and after a tan, not to create a tan. 

During the testing of this product, I have found it really moisturising, which is great when preparing for a tan.
Whilst using the product though, I didn't see much difference to the  colour my skin.
For me the product has a 'yoghurt' like scent to it which I really liked compared to the usual fake tan smell which usually puts me off the products. 

Overall this product is a great thing to use for a week before going out in the sun and after to maintain the tan and moisturise the skin but is more money than what I would usually spend on a fake tan product. 
 


The next product I am going to review is FakeBake's '5 Minute Mousse', the '5 minute mousse is a ready to wear tan. 
The information on the packaging states 'speed dry, colour lockdown formula' this I totally agree with the mousse dries almost instantly  which does mean that the mousse needs to be applied fast but no waiting around for the product to dry! 

The information also states 'a natural golden glow continues to develop with long lasting results', with this product I found that the colour the tan gave when first applied was a nice golden glow but after leaving on through the night then washing off there was no colour left. This doesn't put me off the product though because this tanning product is perfect for putting on for a party then washing it off the next day. 
The product comes with 2 free gloves for application which are essential for applying the product.

I really liked the coconut scent to this product which actually reminds me of somewhere exotic and sunny! 

Overall I really liked this product because of the lovely golden glow that it gave to my skin, the easy application and the way it is presented.
