Skincare - Body -Liz Earle - Liz Earle Superbalm
beautyxgeek 7/21/2011 2:43:00 PM
I have the small pot of SuperBalm. I got it in a set but never really used it much, untill now. I love the fact that it is all natual, easy to use and it's a multi-tasking product. Most people love the smell but I'm not a fan, I would rather it didnt smell at all but that's not gona stop me using it. mine went grainy but that's because of all the natural ingredients in it, i just heated it up to melt it, put it in the freezer to harden then it was back to normal. :]

Blush -BeneFit Cosmetics - Posietint
beautyxgeek 7/13/2011 12:52:00 PM
I bought this more for the lip's than cheeks, it sounded great in all the review's and the colour is really pretty but once applied to the lip's the colour isnt true and the more you try to build it up it just goes all yucky also the staying power isnt that great. I like benefit but this product is way overpriced for what it really is.

Lip Treatments -Bourjois - Baume de Nuit Night Lip Balm [DISCONTINUED]
beautyxgeek 7/13/2011 12:36:00 PM
This balm is great, as soon as I feel my lip's starting to get dry I reach for this. I try to remember to use it everynight and the next morning my lip's are lovely and smooth. I couldnt find this on the high-street so ordered online, halfway through the pot now but will defo buy it again. It's a gorgeous colour for during the day and the price is good.

Fragrances -Moschino - Funny!
beautyxgeek 7/7/2011 3:58:00 PM
I have just finnished my second bottle of this, love love love it! The only reson i bought it in the first place is because it was on offer, I bought it without testing it first [which isnt usually the smartest thing to do] i really didn't expect much from this perfume but it's lovely, It's made me want to try more Moschino fragrances so any suggestions are welcome. :]

Fragrances -Christian Dior - Miss Dior Cherie
beautyxgeek 7/7/2011 3:34:00 PM
I stupidly bought this perfume without smelling it first [thanks to all the rave reviews].. what a mistake, I really don't get why people love it so much, it doesnt do anything for me. In the end I gave it to a friend.

UGHHH.. i hate this tan! I takes forever to dry, the colour guide is almost pure green and the end result really isnt worth it. I wouldnt recommend this to anyone.

Bronzers -Bourjois - Delice de Poudre
beautyxgeek 7/7/2011 3:02:00 PM
I used this bronzer constantly a few year's ago, can't say anything bad about it really [apart from the lack of mirror in the packaging] but can't really rave about it either.

Skincare - Face -Liz Earle - Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish
beautyxgeek 7/5/2011 7:48:00 PM
I love this cleanser, everyone should try it! Brilliant eye make up remover, nothing annoy's me more than having to use a seperate eye makeup remover. Doesnt irritate the skin or leave it feeling dry like most cleansers tend to do [even some premium brands] the shea leaves your skin feeling comfortable, never screaming for moisture. Leave's you with a bright complexion and does a brilliant job of keeping flakey skin at bay. Really can't fault this, even the packaging is tops. Just noticed a few people have mentioned the residue/film it can leave over the skin.. as long as the cleanser is thoroughly removed with the muslin cloth and warm water there shouldnt be any left on the skin but if you find it's still the same then just use toner on a cotton pad to remove whatevers left, I use the apricot toner from Elemis which is great. A toner should always be used after cleansing with water anyway to restore the PH balance.

Scrubs -BeneFit Cosmetics - b right refined finish facial polish
beautyxgeek 7/5/2011 7:29:00 PM
Got this as a sample with another Benefit purchase. I've used it a few time's and like it but just can't justify the price when theres sooooo many more better and less expensive exfoliators out there. the packaging is cute, as is the rest of Benefit skincare line.

Treatments (Eye) -BeneFit Cosmetics - It's Potent!
beautyxgeek 7/5/2011 7:23:00 PM
Been using this day and night for around 2 month's now, it's moisturising and has a nice texture but can't say I've noticed any change with my dark circles. It's an ok eye-cream but for the price, I expected much more.

Tinted Moisturizer -BeneFit Cosmetics - You Rebel Lite Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15
beautyxgeek 7/5/2011 7:06:00 PM
I bought this after being attacked by a girl who worked at the Benefit counter, [not literally] I was on the hunt for a tinted moisturiser with SPF, that didn't end up making my face look oily half an hour after applying it so I agreed to let her put some on me. It looked nice so I bought it however when i got home and looked in the mirror it was yellow! For the next few week's I mixed it with some of my foundation, after paying 23.50 for it, I wasnt gona let it go to waste. On it's own not only was it an awful colour but it made my face look oily yet dry at the same time, also the the packaging wasnt thought through very well, it's a metal tube that split's. I still have over half a tube left and it look's like it's gona stay that way, I have no intention of using the rest. I'd love it If anyone could recommend a good tinted moisturiser, my search isnt going so well.

Powder -Laura Geller - Balance-n-Brighten
beautyxgeek 7/5/2011 6:48:00 PM
After reading all the rave reviews on this [all over the net] I decided to buy it. I ordered the right shade for my skin tne but because you just dont know how much of each colour is going to be in the compact, it let's this product down. This was way too light for me and despite ll the claim's that it doesnt look like powder, it does. I'm only 24 and don't have any wrinkles yet when I apply this under my eye's it look's like I do. As someone has already said, nomatter how smooth your face is [even straight after exfoliating] this foundation creates the look of random dry patches. I had high hope's for this but it's just not for me!

Hair -Moroccanoil - Moroccan Oil
beautyxgeek 7/5/2011 6:16:00 PM
expensive but last's forever! a little goes a long way and it does help. shouldnt leave hair sticky etc if correct amount is used. My only gripe is having to pour the oil into my hand, would be easier if it had a pump. Maybe they're ment to come with a pump? Mine didn't.

Mascara -L'Oreal - Voluminous in Carbon Black
beautyxgeek 7/5/2011 4:20:00 PM
This is my all time fav mascara!! I have sensitive eye's but this causes me no bother. It's blacker than black <3 really volumizes and is almost an exact dupe for YSL, at a fraction of the price. I've yet to find a mascara better than this and I've tried LOADS.. high street and designer.
