SILISPONGE HONEST REVIEW

So I wanted to come here and write my review on the Silisponge that is going crazy around the internet right now. It is a very affordable item and was only $8 and that was with delivery to the UK

So my first impressions of this was that its felt really weird, a bit like hard gel. When I first picked up my foundation with it and applied it to my face I found that it just sat on my face and was a bit weird and difficult to blend in. It just took a little longer than what a beauty blender would take. I also found that it felt a bit tougher on the skin and not as gentle as what a beauty blender does as its sponge. Finally I also found it left my face looking a bit dry especially around my eyebrows and cheeks. Maybe this is because I am used to a damp beauty blender?

My next step with is was my concealer. Once again it was very difficult to blend out into the foundation. I found you still had an outline around the concealer and needed a little bit more work to blend it out.

The positive thing about it was that it does use alot less product then a beauty blender and is easier to clean and can be cleaned easy after every use.

So overall I would say that its great for the reason it went viral (using less product) but in my opinion I don't feel it is for me because I am more for the easier quicker option and I feel I would always go for the beauty blender afterwards anyways.

I really wanted to like it and so sad I didn't.
However I would love to know if anyone else has tried it and what was your thoughts on it. Or even tips encase I could be doing it wrong.


I also have a YouTube video on this if you would want to hear what I have to say

L'oreal Charcoal Pure Clay Detox Mask - REVIEW


HI GUYS
       So I was so excited when I found out there was going to be an affordable Drugstore Charcoal Face Mask. So because of this as soon as they were released I went straight too +Boots UK online and ordered this one. So they did come out with different ones just encase you have a different skin problem. 

So as you can see below it is like a black clay that I actually quite like the smell. Which is nice as it needs to sit on my face for about 20 mins. It is nice and thick and is easy to apply to your face and easy enough to get a nice even layer. I have also used this at least 10 times so far and you would think it hasn't been used yet.
So as I said before it is really easy to get an even layer all over the face and doesn't dry super quick so that you can get it all over your face. This face mask is one of the ones which I love that dry tight and one of the ones where you cant talk properly. Personally I love this type as it feels like its doing something.
 

After about 10-20 mins the mask is dry and your face is super tight and you can see where it has sucked up all the dirty. Pretty disgusting but thats the point. Saves it from keeping it in your skin. Ive inserted a close up of the mask so you can see that it actually works.



























So I would say this is a 10/10 for me. Defiantly a must in any sleepover or beauty bag. 

Thank you so much for reading and maybe leave a comment on some of your favourite masks so that I can try them

Tanya Burr Cosmetics - Review & Swatches


I recently found myself in my local +Superdrug and found the wonderful +TanyaBurr Makeup Items and I picked up everything that was there.

So overall I am so happy with all of these items. They are all so affordable and amazing quality. They could be mistaken for a higher quality brand.

Also the packaging...I am obsessed. I love how the full range looks so good together. The packaging is also strong and would be ideal for travel as they are also compact enough to fit into your bag and not take up the full suitcase.


So below I have the Galaxy Eye Palette & the Hollywood Eye Palette
So here is the swatches for the Galaxy Eye Palette.
This is my favourite palette out of the two. I just love the colours in the palette and is great for a night out. When I done a look using this palette I was pleasantly surprised with the black shade. As you can see the black is so pigmented but is so easy to blend out and I can say this for all of these shades.
Defiantly Recommend.


 So here are the swatches for the Hollywood Eye Palette.
So this palette is more for everyday. Perfect palette for someone who just wants simple colours or new to makeup and wants to try something but a bit scared. The colours are so pretty and blend so nicely. I will say the the lighter colours don't show so well on my skin but enough to give a great look.
        

So below are the Date Night Lashes
  When you buy the lashes it comes with glue which is the standard glue and is great as does the job and dries clear. The lashes are so pretty and make my eyes look so large and open and they are a great size and for me don't need trimming which is amazing for me.   
 Love <3






Below we have the Afternoon Tea Lip Gloss

So this is now my new favourite lip gloss. I just love the colour it is so cute. It is a sheer pink gloss and is very glossy and I love how it isn't sticky as there is nothing worse than hair getting stuck in your gloss.

Thank you so much for giving this a read. Let me know what your favourite item is. <3
