Rose Hip Oil-Simply Incredible

What is Rose Hip Oil??

Rose hip oil is a pressed seed oil made from, as the name suggests, rose hips. I don't know if you guys have heard, but rose hip oil is fantastic.

Why I love it? 

 To cut a long story short,  I've always had weird blemishes on my legs, and after trying everything I could think of to get rid of them, this has been the only thing that's worked. This is amazing for dehydrated or ageing skin too. You can get it in any chemist and it worked wonders for me. It's usually pretty cheap and it works for so many different skin problems.

I swear it's made so much difference to my skin and I'm not going to go blabbing on about it too much, but if you have any scarring, dark spots or redness, I really think this could be a solution for you. It smells lovely and makes for the most relaxing fragrance when heated. 

If you have skin problems and find this worked for you-I'd love to hear all about it! ♡♥

The Mascara That Will Never Let You Down

I did a post recently about a mascara I have been loving, but I decided that one of my all time favourites needs some recognition too. I've been using Thick and Fast by Soap And Glory for a while now, but I always come back to this.

Why I love it: 

This is L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black and it's amazing. It's brilliant for adding tons of volume, length and it lasts ages too. To be honest it does exactly what it says on the tin. I love the wand, and it hasn't made my eyes water once! It applies evenly and elongates lashes without making them look too clumpy. It doesn't dry out for ages either and you can build it up from a subtle day look to full on night look too. If I had to compare it to any high end mascara, I find it's almost an exact double for Diorshow. I have them both and I actually prefer this one a little more! 

It's easy to find and seems to be on offer quite a lot-I really recommend everyone tries it!

Better Than Fake Lashes-Model Co Fibre Lash

I love the way fake lashes make my eyes look, but I try not to wear them too much. I just can't deal with all the fuss. My sister got me the most amazing mascara though, and I  have a feeling I won't need to wear fakies for a long time! This is the Model Co Fibre Lash mascara and I think it's fantastic.The packaging is so pretty and professional looking, and I was sooo excited to try this out. 

How do you use it?

The instructions said to use the lash extending mascara first, and then brush the lash fibres carefully over the mascara. I find it best to leave the fibres set for about 20 seconds, and then apply another layer of mascara. The result is longer, thicker, clump-free lashes that last aaages!

I'm so so impressed with this product, especially since my eyes are irritated easily, and this hasn't hurt them at all.

NYX Butter Gloss

I love love LOVE NYX! It's such reasonably priced makeup and I can't get over the quality.

Why I love the butter glosses:

I'm sure you've all heard of them by now,  but if you haven't, all you need to know is they're creamy,  so nicely pigmented, and they dress up any makeup look in seconds. They're so true to the colour when applied, and if you have very pigmented lips like I do, you'll be so surprised at how well the colour shows up! They're perfect if you have dry lips like me (I can't wear matte lipstick most of the time-boo!)

These will run you about 6 euro but they're worth every penny considering there are some lip glosses I've gotten in the chemist that are twice the price and not half as good.
Perfect for a night out, once you buy one you'll want to try them all.
