TWO PRODUCTS THAT ACTUALLY WORK FOR MY SENSITIVE SKIN!



 Good morning everyone! Hope you are all well!

As we all know.. ladies.. the time of the month can sometimes effect our skin and for me, these last few months I've seen some changes. Now normally my skin is pretty good with handling that time of the month, however, I've been through a lot of stress which has caused me to break out and my skin has become super dry. More dry than normal and i felt like I needed to get this under control!

I have two specific products that I have been using within my skin care routine to tackle the problem and heck! it's worked! I usually apply this serum at night as I feel I can leave it to soak a little longer and give my skin a pamper! This little beauty is the LaCure BEAUTE Paris - Multi benefit rose cream gel. This little detox in a tube has made my skin super soft and absorbs into the skin quite quickly. The smell is rose but it's not overpowering HALLELUJAH!

I found the serum to be quite light weight which is amazing and I'm not a big fan of thick gels. This felt like hydration to the fullest and I'm super happy to have this within my routine!

Other tips to help skin hydration!

* Keep hydrated. Now this tip is underestimated and I was one of those people who never really use to drink water. My skin, lips and hair became very very dry but still, never use to drink water. This step is super important not only for your skin, hair, nails but your overall health. Water helps flush out the toxins and I've seen a difference in how clear my skin has become even during the time of the month.

* Keep to a skin routine with products that are tailored towards your skin type. Years ago, I used to walk into a shop, see a product and use it within my routine once and disliked it because I found it was tailored for oily skin. Now not only is this a waste of money but it's also a lot of time investing into products that do not work for you. I know first hand finding products that work for you takes trial and error, but it may help by taking a look at the ingredients to see if they are going to suit your needs and your goals. Some products I've used in the past have been tailored towards acne which made my dry skin even worse and I never suffered with acne! Look for products that you know won't cause any problems for you and work with them.



FED UP OF NOT BEING ABLE TO USE MUD MASKS BECAUSE OF SENSITIVE SKIN? 

I may just have a solution!



LaCure Beauté Black Thermal Face Mask


I haven't used a mud mask for a very long time after taking a dislike to them being quite thick and not enjoying the texture it left on my skin. However, as I've experience a few break outs due to stress I wanted to try them out again and see if this would change my mind. I was shocked with the consistency of this product as it is a mud mask but it feels more like a thin-medium cream. This is excellent as you can build up the amount you want to suit your needs. I tend to leave this mask on for around 10-15 minutes. Most mud masks that I have tried in the past tend to dry so you know when to then wash it off. I personally don't like products like that specially with my dry skin because it made it worse. This product however doesn't do that at all. It dries slightly but it doesn't dry to the point where it cracks and you can't feel your face ( you girls know what I mean.. maybe even men!) The brightness of my skin is down to this product hands down.

I tend to not put this product around my nose as I have broken capillaries which this can irritate, however, this is what I avoid with all products. If you have tried mud masks in the past which has dried your skin out then this is definitely one which I would recommend because it feels more like a thick moisturiser and leaves your skin feeling super hydrated.



I'd love to hear if you have used these products or what products have been working for you in the comment section below!

I've had such great engagement on my Instagram since posting a picture of me wearing these amazing lashes. Until recently, I never used to be the one for wearing lashes, typically because I wasn't the best at applying them to myself, but somehow I could get them right on others!  After some time thinking, and screaming "surely I can't be the only person?" I was finally able to learn the technique that worked for me. And that's the thing about techniques, is that you learn it over time, some find it quicker than others but it's honestly just practice and there's no real time limit to it. That's also the thing I love with makeup, you learn and find ways to make different techniques work for you.

After noticing that lashes completely changed my makeup game, making my eyes look more awake and really defining the shadows used, I started to look for  lashes that were natural and easy to wear. Social media definitely has a huge influence in my shopping basket. If your like me, you see someone wearing amazing lashes and you go to buy them because you want the same amazing look right? But then you get hit with the price tag. I know there are quite a few great brands for eyelashes on the market but after seeing so many people rave about Lilly Lashes and having the battle whether to buy them or not, i'm so glad I did. I am in no way sponsored by Lilly Lashes and all thoughts remain my own.

Spending £20 on a pair of lashes really did make me rethink about buying another pair from this brand because in all fairness, they are not cheap. However, the quality totally won me over. The quality of these lashes do reflect the price tag and they can be re-used up to 10-12 times if taken care of correctly. I brought the pair 'Goddess' which are a natural lash.  The brand states 'the Goddess Luxury Mink Lashes accentuate all eye shapes creating a whimsically wispie finish'. I didn't need any more convincing after this.

                       
                            
Although it states a natural finish, I do think that these lashes can be dramatic too, dependant upon the colour of the shadows you use. To demonstrate, I have uploaded the picture above of a smokey eye look with the lashes, although they are natural, they definitely make a statement which is what I really love about this look. They are very soft so my top tip is to be careful and take care of them because they are not cheap and if taken care of, you will definitely get your value for money.


Thank you for taking the time to read this blog post!
I upload daily swatches and pictures using my favourite products on Instagram so if you have it too, let's share the love! My Instagram :)

I'd also love to hear about if you have used these lashes and your favourite ones? Or if you use lashes in general and your favourite brand!

How to clean your Beauty Blender in 2 easy steps

I thought I would it would be a good idea to tell you all how I clean and disinfect my Beauty Blender in 2 easy steps, I say it's easy because it only takes 5 minutes and when it comes to cleaning brushes it's not the most quickest of tasks. However, with this routine you can do this these two easy steps whilst the kettle is boiling, so let's go!


A good application of foundation or however you use your Beauty Blender is now popular using this tool. If you've purchased one of these, you'll know that they aren't the cheapest, retailing for £16.00 for the original Beauty Blender.  So looking after this tool has the same importance as looking after your brushes, even more with this because of moulding. I know what you may be thinking, how is that possible? 


As its a rule of thumb to wet a Beauty Blender before the application of makeup right? however bacteria and germs will grow within this moist environment. So leaving it out after makeup even once can start this process and is one factor that can cause acne. Imagine putting a sponge of mould on your face every time you use it in the morning? It's more noticeable with the lighter colour Beauty Blenders. 





There's a few brush cleansers on the market but I use Johnson's Baby Shampoo, £1! So it's affordable and very effective which is great! Firstly build a lather of shampoo into the Beauty Blender and ensure you are using warm water. 




Next make sure you squeeze out all the water in preparation for the following step (you'll need a microwave for the next part).  Fill a microwaveable container with a small amount of water and pop it in for 30 seconds. As a Beauty Blender touches the face it can collect dirt particles, which will grow bacteria if left unclean, the heat of the microwave kills these germs and can prevent the growth happening in the first place by using this routine. Easy right? 



The final step is to leave to cool down and squeeze any water that the sponge may that soaked up and place in an open container to dry. You can even use a egg cup or any container that allows to air to ventilate around the Beauty Blender. You now have a perfectly cleansed and sterile Beauty Blender which will provide a fresh and flawless foundation base for the next use!
