Face mask review

beauty
I am all for face masks if they are going to improve my skin, so i saw these on the Wish app for £2 including delivery and you get 10! The only downfall from ordering off Wish is that the delivery takes so long! Literally weeks. 

The mask itself is a black and thick substance. It doesnt really have a smell and when it's applied it's very thick and shiny. It takes up to 30 minutes to dry and when it does it feels quite tight.


Peeling the mask off is a task. Especially when you have those little hairs on your cheeks because this mask will rip those out! It is painful so i wouldn't recommend  it for anyone with sensitive skin. 

When you have peeled it off it leaves your skin so soft and pulls the trapped dirt out. For the price of these and how many you get i think they are great! 

Favourite new products

I love trying out new products hoping to find the perfect consistency without the product being either too thick and caking or with no coverage.

Ever since buying the MAC foundation which was a BIG waste of money I have always been cautious buying high end foundations. A lot of people say good things about the Estee lauder double wear and how it's full coverage but then again others say its thick and cakey. I wanted something that was going to be good coverage but wasn't some pore clogging cakey product.

The Collection foundation was good coverage but it sank into my pores and made my skin look so greasy which wasn't a good look or feeling. You get what you pay for and with the Collection foundation being £5.99 you cant complain and it is a bargain. This would be perfect for someone who doesn't have a quite oily face.

I thought I would try out the Bourjois healthy mix from Superdrug as Sarah Ashcroft used it a lot in her Youtube videos and it looked amazing. Reading about it and watching reviews on Youtube I decided to buy it and with it being £9.99 its a really affordable price. I've only worn it once since buying it as it came yesterday and I'm already in love with the consistency. It applies on the skin smoothly and is amazing coverage.

I use the Maybelline Baby skin Instant pore eraser under it which is also amazing! It is such a soft product and makes my skin look poreless (is it says on the packaging). Although, I wasn't expecting it to be as small as it is I thought it would of been bigger like the Rimmel primers.

Morphe 35K Palette

beauty
Here are my first impressions of the Morphe 35K koffee palette! I originally wanted the 35O palette but they are ALWAYS out of stock so i got this one instead. This was my second choice and i love it! I've never owned a Morphe palette and theres no reason why it's just never crossed my mind to buy one, I always see Youtubers use these palette in their videos and so i thought i'd give one a go! 
If im honest i wasnt expecting great pigmentation from the product as i found the palettes looked cheap but i am so amazed by how pigmented the colours are! 
The colours are gorgeous and they are so easy to apply and blend! I actually think these are a bargain for the price with being just under £20 they are amazing and i will definitely buy more! 
The colours are warm shades with mixture of mattes and shimmers! I got mine from HERE from Beautybay. 
Im never one to buy big branded products because of how overally priced some of their items are but this brand is amazing! 
Overall i think this palette will be perfect for everyday use especially with the warm toned colours they will come in handy for both Summer and Winter looks.

How to look after hair extensions

Extensions
Looking after extensions such as micro loops can be difficult. Micro loop/rings are one of the best and most discreet hair extensions on the hair market. Most salons across the UK and America offer this type of extension option and will usually charge a quite bit as they take up alot of time and hours. They will be colour matched, fitted, styled and finished and last a long time (up to 6 months). They do grow out therefore you would need to go and get them tightened and they dont damage your natural hair either! 

RULES: 
• Always brush them atleast 3 times a day as they will tangle during everyday activities. 
• Use a wide tooth comb to untangle knots gently without pulling the hair out. 
• Avoid brushing the hair between the scalp and loop as it can tug the hair and make the micro ring extension loose.
• Dont brush hair when it's wet.
• Dont air-dry hair at night as it will get knotted.
• Avoid swimming pools! Chlorinated water will damage extensions and natural hair. 
• Sleep with hair in a plait/braid as it will stay in place all night and wont tangle up.


Pros of having microloop extensions: 
• Natural looking
• Last up to 6 months
• Do no damage to your natural hair
Cons: 
• Expensive 
• Time consuming 
• Can be visible if the natural hair is short.



I love extensions and they are perfect for anyone who finds it difficult growing their natural hair or who doesnt have time applying clip-in extensions everyday. They last months and are so natural looking noone will know they are extensions! 
Hope this helps anyone who wants or has extensions!

How to keep skin glowing during the summer

clinique


The first tip is to drink lots of water so your skin stays hydrated and doesnt dry out. You've probably heard this tip alot but it honestly works, i've been drinking water frequently and I definitely notice i dont breakout! 

Wash your face with cold water and face washes. I use the Estee Lauder and Clinique washes because they take off my makeup so easily. Washing your face gets rid of the greasy sweatiness you get when sitting in the sun. 

If you're like me and have oily skin then you will know makeup in the heat is a massive NO. I cannot wear makeup at all in the sun due to it sweating straight off, powders don't work and neither do setting sprays. 
Wear less makeup or no makeup this will not just let your skin breathe but it will also let the sun shine on your face and even give you a natural tan.
