Dream and Love: August 2014

Maroon theme outfit of the day

Feels like autumn is here in the UK although we are still in august! I have already started to wear my autumn clothes including coats and scarfs lol! It is so cold and raining quite a lot these days!

Luckily for me, I am off work this weekend and spending time with my

Boyfriend so of course we are outdoors and that means there's photos of my outfits via all my social networks!

This is today's outfit of the day!

Maroon theme with black leggings!

Simple but feminine!

Nars Summer Limited Edition Set

So glad to get my hands on the latest Nars set 'More More More' ! This set includes a choice of 2 colours, pink and black .

I have been waiting for my nearest Selfridges to stock up on this but luckily I managed to grab my set from Selfridges in London last week whilst I was visiting!

Each set consists of 3 items, lipgloss, nail polish and lipstick plus, the beautiful shiny glossy box to store it all in!

The set that I got was the hot pink colour set 'Climax' which includes a fantasy pink legendary Schiap - featuring a nail polish, lipstick and limited edition lip gloss. The 3 items comes with the lacquered box to match all for just £37.00! Each item added up would be about £45+ therefore for this set, it is a bargain!

I just love how pretty the box is and also the product colours, I can't wait to use them all!

Smashbox lip plumper review

I think fuller lips look so much better as it makes me look more feminine - personal opinion that is! Obviously depending on the whole out look .

I recently travelled and picked this lip plumper by smashbox at the duty free store! For less than £15 I was instantly drawn to see how it would work! (RRP £18)

There is 10ml of the product in a tube form, I use this only a few times a day with or without lipstick.

This contains berry-c complex, ginger mint, ginkgo biloba, pomegranate seed antioxidants, revitalising marine botanicals and nourishing avocado oil for colour and shine!

There is a clever technology in this product as it also has a slight pink in colour when applied to the lips but it comes out clear from the tube - it adjusts to your skin tone but I just think it is the same colour for everyone. I guess it's a nice glossy lip product for a quick look as the colour is adjusted in a few seconds only.

Pro's:

* lip plumping effect

* small size perfect for travelling

Con's:

* consistency is too sticky

* shade maybe too pink for some

* very shiny and maybe too shiny for some

* tingling sensation may irritate those who have sensitive skin

I personally think it's a fun product and definatly my ready-to-go product but I wouldn't buy it again because I don't think it benefits me as much as I think.

There are also other ways to make lips plump without Botox so I will try them.

Microdermabrasion without pain is possible! How??!!

Microdermabrasion is becoming popular in salons because it shows results, depending on your skin type of course. I have had the opportunity to try it and it was an experience but not so much my favourite as it was painful - I wished I didn't have such sensitive skin! However, there is an alternative!

Nu skin has a range which can help the skin to looking younger by tackling problematic areas as well as helping the skin to becoming even and reducing dark spots which is damaged by the sun harmful rays! Even when I apply SPF on a daily basis, I do enjoy being in the sun for long periods and then I develop the dark spots which may turn into cancer cells.

The equivalent to microdermabrasion is the polishing peel to use in the comfort of your own home, The aim is for you to feel at ease and pay only a fraction of the price compared to being in salons or buying expensive tools!

The polishing peel is super easy to use and as you can see, my skin glows afterwards - this is within the hour! When I wake up, my skin is glowing with confidence ans when I apply my make up, it's so much smoother!

For less than £30, the tube contains 50ml of product which you can easily get 10+ Uses out of which is a fraction of what you would pay for a treatment at a salon. Clinically proven to be equivalent to a professional microdermabrasion session, Polishing Peel features Pumpkin Enzymes to resurface, soften and polish the skin and Bentonite Clay to remove dull skin cells and toxins.
