TOP PRODUCTS OF 2012

Hello Chicas!




How are we all? Hope your year has started off great eh?


Alas, Im rather late with this post but  just thought I would do a post of my favourite products of the past year! Hope you enjoy



Lush Rub Rub Rub Shower scrub- 
Very gentle on skin its packed with rich mineral sea salt and organic lime
The colour and scent of this is wonderful smells like ocean breeze IMO.I use it once a week 
it leaves my skin polished and smooth without drying

Lush Bubblegum lip scrub
Not only does this smell sweet like candy and taste yummy it keeps my lips in a great condition
Made from Caster sugar and Organic Jojoba Oil it does a great job of
clearing dead skin and flakiness from lips leaving them moisturised and smooth

Argan Oil 100% Organic
This Oil is fab,I have been using it for my face,body and hair.
It has so many benefits to the skin 
It also helps in promoting hair growth and fading acne scars
I have noticed improvement when I used it on its own or mixed with face and body creams
Nowadays Im using it mainly for my hair and I love it

Victoria Secrets Body scrubs in Pure Seduction and Aqua Kiss
I really am a fan of Victoria Secrets beauty products
I forgot to include body mists in the photos. 
Their body scrubs smell wonderful and they leave my skin feeling  very smooth without being dry



Lancome Teint Idole ultra 24hr foundation #10
This is current Holy grail for me,I love this foundation 
Its everything I look for in a foundation,lightweight,doesnt cake off,
doesnt break me out, doesnt look like a mask,love the finish and coverage 
U can see my review here

Becca Cosmetics Mattifying Primer
I love this primer,its so mattifying and helps reduce the look of my enlarged pores. It keeps my t-zone looking shiny all day
U can find my review here


Sleek Rose Gold blush
A dupe to the famous Nars Orgasm blush,its a gorgeous peachy pink shade with golden sheen. It is very pigmented and gives skin a healthy glow




Nars Taos blush
Nars Taos is my to go blush- its a desert rose blush with shimmer
*This is such  beautiful,colour- kinda dark red-coral with shimmer
Its smooth and has has great colour payoff
The pigmentation is Amazing,it makes me glow and look very healthy
It blends flawlessly u can never go wrong with Nars IMO


Nars Taj Mahal blush
Can tell I love me some Nars hey!
Taj Mahal is avibrant tangerine orange blush with golden sheen. Texture is very smooth,it gives skin a subtle glow,Its perfect for those with deeper skintones but those with light skintones can still  find it  useful but using a very light hand. I tend to reach for it during spring and summer 

K by Beverley Knight contouring Blush in Flame
A deep warm amber blush infused with gold sparkles,it gives a lovely flush of colour and is perfect for everyday use


Lancome Mousse Eclat cleanser
This was my cleanser of the year
The light-as-air foam activates with water to create a truly luxurious cleanser. Its fresh formula gently cleanses away makeup and impurities to clarify the complexion leaving your skin soft,radiant and healthy looking
I would repurchase in the fute you can find my review here

Lush Tea Tree toner
I have resorted to using this every now and again when I feel a blemish/spot popping up. I love it.
I think this is particularly effective for oily/combination and blemish prone skin
It is also very good at refreshing my skin
Antiblemish and antifungal tea tree helps banish imperfections


Lush Ocean salt face scrub
-Made from lashings of sea salt to scrub and clean,Organic limes to brighten and avocado to soften the skin. It has a salty and fruity scent but didd not break me out or cause irritation. I mainly use this scrub for my face but it can also be used  on hands and feet.
  • I love the Lush Ocean salt because it exfoliates my skin whilst removing dead skin without leaving it tight. It really leaves my skin feeling smooth, moisturised and radiant
