Avon Colour Trend Plump Out Mascara

Avon Colour Trend Plump Out Mascara- £4.50

(Now I got my Avon order delivered yesterday and I was going to do a haul blog post but I decided to review each product individually so I can go into detail about each product)

Now I have very mixed opinions on this product and I'll explain why. 

I need a new plumping up mascara, the length of them doesn't bother me but volume is something that I crave and I do believe it has done this very well, as you can see from my fabulous side by side comparison (Yes my eyeliner was so on pain I could stab a man haha)

As you can see my lashes are plumper and longer which is brilliant! But... Yes, sadly there is a but, the application process was rather frustrating for me and I will explain why. 

When I got the catalogue it didn't have any pictures of the applicator so I was a bit sceptical about buying it, most plumping or volumising mascara's you see around have huge wants and for a person with small eyes I just can't use them but then I was like "Wellll for only a few quid I can't exactly complain, I'll get what I pay for and I've got nothing to lose" so I bought it and to my pleasant surprise, the applicator was small and was perfect for my eye!

But this morning when I went to apply it to my lashes I was a tad diss appointed, the mascara is a very wet formula and I really don't like mascara's like that, they stick my lashes together and I end up with black dots all over my brow bone when I'm applying it...

But at the same time I'm willing to put up with that because of how it made my lashes look, they were bold and defined and long and very volumised! And the best thing? They lift and curl it put into my lashes stayed all day! 

Usually if I want nice curled lashes I use a lash curler but I didn't need one at all this this mascara because it did it for me. I even cried for a bit today and it stayed on.

It is also the kind of mascara that comes off beautiful with a cotton pad and some moisturiser. 

I would definitely recommend this to a friend

Until next time

Vintage Hearts UK Clothing

So last Friday I ordered an outfit from a Big Cartel shop called Vitage Hearts UK who specialise in custom made vintage clothing. They have a wide range of clothing from Hippy Atire to retro jumpers, each piece is unique and beautiful!

They also do outfit offers and I found one and instantly fell in love. It's a skirt, strapless CropTop (I cannot spell what it's actually called, I'm sorry, I'm illiterate) a scarf and a bag. All together it cost £18! £18 for the entire thing

Yesterday my clothes came (3-5 working day delivery which is standard) and along with the outfit they also sent me a free bracelet!

 Now I honestly think the clothes are beautiful, great colours and lovely material, especially on the skirt. It's soft, has a slight stretchy feel, it's also light and flowy and is definitely my favourite piece. The clothes even have that vintagey smell that I adore on old things. 

But I have to say one thing does sadden me and that's the size of the top. On the website it says Size 8 but it honestly feels bigger. I have an odd body size, it's between a six and an eight so finding clothing is difficult enlighten and as gorgeous as the top is, it's too big (I guess it's time to bring out the sewing needle)

Apart from that though I have no complaints, the clothing is great, they were delivered on time and I think I look fab in them.

Biotin&Collagen Deep Conditioning/Thickening Hair Mask

Biotin and Collagen Deep Conditioning Thickening Hair Mask- £1

So my New Years goal was to take better care of my body, inside and out and because of this I decided I'm in very much need of a hair cut to get rid of all the dead, split and damaged ends so that my hair can start getting healthier (down side to having magic coloured hair is that it gets crazy destroyed hehe) 

So after the hair dressers I figured it can't harm to go and buy some new hair products, treat my hair you know? So along with a new shampoo and conditioner (I'll review in the future) I also bought this hair mask. 

FIRST IMPRESSION

since buying it I've used it once and I have to say, I'm very impressed so far. 

It has a light smell, kind of like a generic conditioner smell, not overwhelming or chemically. 

The consistency is like most other hair masks I've used, thick/smooth, kind of creamy. It is a bit oily when you first touch it but it doesn't feel that way once on your hair. 

It goes on like a conditioner (you do not need conditioner when using this product) after shampooing run it through roots to ends and them I massaged it into my scalp, a healthy scalp is a happy scalp.

You leave it from 7-10 minutes before rinsin off with clean water (so if you're having a bath, run fresh water or stick your head under the shower) 

Now depending on your preference, you dot have to leave it on for this long, depending on your hair length, type, how deeply you need/want to condition it for, you can wash it off when you want. I only left mine on for 5 minutes then afte it was rinse out I ran my hair under cold water then let it air dry, once dry my hair felt incredibly soft, healthy and thick just like it was supposed to. 

PRICE/WHERE TO BUY 

Best thing about this product? It's only £1. Yep! That's right! One little pound for 250ml that will last you months (depending on how often you use it) and it can be found in the shampoo/conditioner section of: 

-Quality Save

-Home Bargains

-B&M

-Pound land

And probably other related retailers. 

It also comes in the form of a shampoo, conditioner and hair oil so if you don't like masks their are other choices for you. 

If you try it let me know what you think of it!

I'm sorry it was such a rambly blog post but I hope it was helpful.
