Hello you beauties!

So it's time again for another subscription box review! As you know I usually love this Look Incredible box (apart from a slightly disappointing box last month) so let's see what I think about it this month.

Price of box is £18.99 per month. And £2.50 P&P

There are 5 products in this month's box

This box is worth £75.98

The brands included in this box are: Stila, The Body Shop, Ciate, NARS and Bareminerals

The first item I noticed in this box (because it was a big one!) is the Body Shop White Musk Soft Body Polish (£15). I am really excited about this product as I love the Body Shop products and I love skin care products. It smells great and I can't wait to use it!

The next item I noticed (and originally got very excited about) is the NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil (£15). However, I got the shade 'Tender Night' which is a lilac-y shade. A lilac shade for your lips!? I'm all about wearing purple shades, but dark shades, not lilac! However, when I tested it, it is extremely light which means it's perfect if you just want to add a little bit of shimmer to your natural lip colour.

 I then noticed a Stila product in the box, and I love the brand so I was really excited to see it. However, the overall product is not the best. It is the Stila Colour Balm Lipstick (£16) and while I love lipsticks, I own so many that I really do not need anymore. Also, it is not the easiest thing to use as it is quite large so hard to control where the product actually goes. Also, I'm not a massive fan of the shade. I got the shade 'Avery' which is a reasonably light pink shade, which I do not think is right for the autumn/winter months at all - it would've made sense if we had got this product in the June/July/August box instead. On the lips, luckily, it isn't too bright and I am sure I can use this quite a bit in the spring/summer months next year, and I might be able to use it a little bit over Christmas. It also smells like peppermint, which I love!

Next I pulled out the Ciate Feathered Manicure Set (£9.99). I own so many Ciate nail polishes and nail sets now that I won't need anymore nail polishes for months! I do love nail art but the amount of nail art sets we've been given from Look Incredible and Ciate over the past few months is starting to annoy me. I will try this out soon however, and I will let you know my opinion of it.

The final item in the box is something that they actually put in the May box. It is the Bareminerals Ready Blush (£19.99). In May, I received one in the shade 'The Whisper'. I do love this product but I am annoyed that it is a repeat product. This time, I received the shade 'The Indecent Proposal' which is a similar nude shade to the first one I owned, but with a bit of shimmer to it. I feel like this will be perfect as the festive period approaches. Although I am disappointed that it is a repeat product, I am overall very pleased with this product.

While this box has not been the most exciting box I have received to date, I am overall quite pleased with all the products in this box and I am sure I will be able to incorporate them all into makeup looks one day in the future.

I will be back on Wednesday with another post for you!

Hello you beauties!

Everyone who wears makeup knows how much the contents of your makeup bag can change between the seasons. So I thought it was only right that I would bring you an updated post on what is in my makeup bag this season!

1. Foundations and BB Creams - with the weather cooling down, I'm finding it easier and much more pleasurable to wear heavier coverage bases now. I have always enjoyed wearing the Garnier BB cream as it offered great coverage whilst still being lightweight, but I am also really enjoying using the Bourjois Radiance Reveal Healthy Mix foundation.

2. Concealer - I'm only really using one concealer at the moment, and this is the Collection Lasting Perfection concealer. I am loving this concealer because, during the colder months, I feel like my skin looks extremely tired, and so this concealer is really good at covering up my dark circles and blends very easily.

3.  Powder - as per usual, I stick with my usual and favourite powder, the Rimmel London Stay Matte powder. I never really use anything else regarding powder.

4. Bronzer - I am still using my favourite bronzer which is the Benefit Hoola Bronzer. Some things never change!

5. Blush - At the moment, I am loving the MUA blushes as they're so cheap but extremely pigmented. I also love the two Bareminerals blushes that I own, which are more neutral toned than the pinkish toned MUA blushes, so I use these all for different looks.

6. Highlight - Ever since I first bought it, I have been loving the Sleek Solstice highlight palette and it is all I use for my highlight anymore.

7. Eyeshadows - Maybelline Colour Tattoos are my favourite eyeshadows at the moment. This is simply because I have such adorable autumn colours of them, and they're so easy to apply.

8. Mascaras - There are two mascaras that I am using a lot during the autumn. They are my favourites the No7 Exceptional Definition mascara and the Princess Marcella Borghese Superiore State of the Art mascara. I find that both give me just as much volume and colour and curl as I want.

9. Brows - I am loving using the Freedom Brow Pomade in the shade 'Blonde' at the moment but I am also loving the Soap and Glory Archery brow tint and pencil in the shade 'Love is Blonde' as I don't always have a lot of time to do my makeup so I find the pencil a lot easier to use. I am also using the Seventeen Clear Definition clear mascara to set my brows.

10. Plum/Purple lip liners - Of course it'll be plum/purple shades at the moment. It is autumn after all! I own two of these lip liners which I do use a lot. These are a Makeup Revolution one in the shade 'Vamp' and a Laura Geller one in the shade 'Chianti', and both lip liners do an extremely good job.

11. Finally, plum/purple lipsticks/lipglosses - Again, more purple. These shades of lipstick are all that I wear at the moment when I go out. I have 4 lipsticks of these shades. These are the Laura Geller in the shade 'Cab Crush', Topshop matte in the shade 'Beguiled', NYX intense butter gloss in the shade 'Spice Cake' and the Maybelline Colour Drama Lip Print in the shade 'Vamped up'. These are all great lipsticks and colours, and I would definitely recommend them.

So that was my everyday makeup bag post for autumn! Make sure to let me know what you have in your makeup bag this season.

I'll be back on Saturday with another post for you all!

Hello you beauties!

It is well into autumn now, and the weather is getting colder, so it means that it is the perfect time to start lighting candles for casual use. I'm quite strange when it comes to autumn, as I still love using very summery scents during this time, but I am quite determined to give you my genuine favourite autumn scents.

1. Apple cider
This just screams autumn to me. Apples, perfect for the autumn, makes me think of autumn festivals, such as apple bobbing, and also those cold nights sat in pubs trying to keep warm by getting drunk!

2. Cinnamon
While some people may see this as a more winter scent, I love lighting cinnamon candles in the autumn too as we transition between the two seasons and I start getting excited for Christmas.

3. Pumpkin
This one just screams autumn, as Halloween and autumn are the ultimate power couple. I love lighting this during the night of Halloween either while I'm getting ready to go out for a great night and to get me into the mood for Halloween, or if I stay at home to try and relax.

4. Coffee
Whilst I have not seen that many coffee candles, I love having this scent lingering during the autumn months. It reminds me of those hot drinks I need to warm myself up with after a long day at school/college while sat in front of the TV watching an amazing Halloween film.

5. Wood-y
What better than the scent of wood and bonfires on that crisp autumn night? If you don't have any plans, just light a candle of this scent, close your eyes and imagine you're sitting by a crackling bonfire with all your friends. It'll make you feel so relaxed, I promise.

So those were my top 5 autumn scents. Feel free to comment and let me know your favourite scents!

I'll be back on Wednesday with another post for you all!

Hello you beauties!

And again, it is time for another beauty box unboxing! Like normal, first is the Look Fantastic box. So let's get on with it.

Price of box is £11.25 per month (if 12 month subscription). No fee for P&P

There are 7 products in this month's box

          The brands included in this box are: Oskia, Mio, Polaar, Murad, Laura Geller and Alterna

As per usual, we were given the Elle magazine, which I have actually started to read now!

The first item I pulled out of the box was the Murad Intensive-C Radiance Peel, which comes as a little 10ml sample size. It promises to brighten the skin and leave a glow. I am quite excited to try this out as I always love trying out new face products.

The next item I found was the Polaar The Genuine Lapland Cream, which is a decent 10ml sized tube of lip balm. I am always looking for great lip balms as I suffer from quite dry and cracked lips. This smells of berries too, which means it is great for the autumn and winter months.

Next was the Mio Liquid Yoga, which is described as being a restorative bath soak. It is supposed to help ease tension and muscle aches while encouraging an atmosphere of relaxation. I rarely have a bath - I tend to opt for a shower as it is quicker - so I might not get chance to use this product, but I might try and find time to try it out as soon as I can.

Then, in the box, I found the Oskia Renaissance Mask which I am extremely excited about as I love a good face mask. It smells great and is very easy to use so I am looking forward to using it more in the future.

Next is the Alterna Caviar Moisture Intense Treatment which I am happy to receive as I do not have the best hair so I am always looking for ways to improve it. We get a decent sample size in this box (25ml) and I am looking forward to seeing if it does give my hair the moisture boost it promises.

The final item is probably the most exciting item in the box. It is the the Laura Geller Pout Perfection Waterproof Lip Liner. A Laura Geller product!? I received the shade 'Chianti' which is a lovely Mauve Cherry shade, and is perfect to use with those plum toned lipsticks. Now that I have started wearing darker lipsticks, this lip liner is a perfect addition to my makeup collection.

So overall I really did love this box this month. The addition of the lip liner made this box even better and I am excited to try out each product.

I'll be back on Saturday with another post for you all!

Hello you beauties!

Everyone loves having their own wishlist - I really don't think you could ever own every single thing that you want! So I decided to give you all my wishlist so far!

1. Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara.
I have heard many great things about this mascara, and I love the Too Faced brand so I am really keen to try out this mascara.

2. Spectrum makeup brushes
Brushes are probably one of the most important parts of makeup application, and so I'm always in need of amazing makeup brushes. I would love to own some Spectrum brushes as they look like such good quality and are so pretty too!

3. Too Faced Sweetheart Blushes
I seem to just love Too Faced at the moment! These blushes are so cute and I love the fact that you get 3 different shades in one. I may also have to try the cheaper Makeup Revolution versions.

4. Romwe Sweaters
While I'm trying to ban myself from buying any more clothing, I have found myself looking through the Romwe website and have fallen in love with the sweaters they have! I find the need to buy more sweaters as I don't own many and the weather is getting much colder.

5. Darker nail polish shades
I have a LOT of nail polishes. I really do. But a lot of them seem to be quite summer-y shades, and with autumn here and winter approaching, I really need to buy some darker red and plum/purple tones ready for the festive months.

So that was my current wishlist! I hope you all enjoyed reading it, and feel free to share your own wishlist with me.

I'll be back on Wednesday with another post for you all.

Hello you beauties!

As you will all obviously know, we all have our makeup items that we swear by, ones that we don't know if we can live without, ones that we will definitely repurchase in the future. Well, here is my list!

The Rimmel London Stay Matte powder is honestly the only powder I use. And I know there are probably other great powders out there, but I feel like this one does a brilliant job and its really cheap too so I will definitely buy it again.

I bought my first Soap and Glory archery brow pencil and tint not too long ago, and it has become one of my favourite products in my collection. I struggle to find good brow products for me, as I have naturally blonde hair but darker eyebrows, but dark eyebrow products make me look stupid, but the colour of this brow pencil in 'Love is Blonde' is just perfect for me, and I will buy another one when my current one runs out.

I got my first No7 Exceptional Definition mascara in a Look Incredible box a few months ago and since then I swear it's the only mascara I ever use. It's perfect for those natural 'no makeup' makeup looks. I have actually already repurchased it, ready for when my current one runs out.

I never have much luck with bronzers, so when I first purchased the Benefit Hoola bronzer, I was a bit worried in case it didn't suit me, meaning I would've wasted a lot of money. But it's the perfect bronzer! It's very subtle meaning it is perfect for contouring and doesn't turn orange either.

My first ever lip crayon was by the Collection brand, and even though they're only cheap, they're brilliant products. They're actually quite moisturising and give a great colour pay off. The one in the shade 'Cappucino' is actually my fave lip product of all time, and I have actually already repurchased one because my current one is almost gone!

Now, saying I would repurchase a Topshop lipstick might not be the most logical thing I could say, as I only own one, but because of the amazing quality of the one that I own, it means that I would not say no to buying another one. The one I have is a matte one in the shade 'Beguiled', which is a plumish red colour. Those are two things I used to hate - mattes and dark colours. But this lipstick made me love them as it's not too drying and the colour doesn't run or anything like that.

Finally, I would definitely repurchase the NYX Intense Butter Glosses. While I don't usually wear lip glosses, because of the colour pay off of these glosses, I would say they are more like liquid lipsticks. While they don't dry completely, they don't actually feel sticky and don't run either, which makes them so lovely to wear.

Make sure to let me know what things you will repurchase and perhaps try and persuade me to buy them myself!

I'll be back on Saturday with another post for you all!

Hello you beauties!

Well, yet again, it's that time of the month again so here I am bringing you my 6th monthly favourites post. Where has the year gone!? At this rate, it won't be long until Christmas is upon us (and I really do hope it hurries up).

1. Purple/Dark Red lipsticks
Autumn is here, which means that everyone has brought out those dark lip colours yet again. I have never used lipsticks that weren't nudes or subtle pinks before, so when I purchased my first purple lipstick this time last month (a Topshop matte lipstick in the shade 'Beguiled'), I really did worry. What if I looked stupid? Luckily, I managed to pull it off, and have brought multiple other dark lipsticks since then and wear them every time I go out. And now, I can't imagine not having dark lips - I love it.

2. Sleek Solstice Highlighter palette
Yes, I did finally give into the constant nagging in my head that was telling me to buy this product. In a way, I knew it was good before I bought it, as many, many people always say very positive things about it. And now it has to be my favourite highlighter ever! It can be very intense sometimes though - one time I put so much on by accident that when I took a 'selfie', all I could see was the highlighter in the picture!

3. Long Sleeved T-Shirts
Now that the weather is cooling down slightly, I have been wearing long sleeved t-shirts a lot. I cycle most places, and so I hate wearing coats while doing so, but feel the need to have a layer covering my arms, so long sleeved t-shirts are perfect. They're great if you want to go out at night too and not take a jacket.

4. Pink Grapefruit scents
I know I mentioned this slightly last month when I spoke to you all about hand creams, but the scent I have been loving most recently is pink grapefruit. It's just a lovely fresh, fruity scent that allows me to cling onto summer whilst we transition into the colder months. If I'm completely honest, I feel like I'll still be wearing this scent at Christmas!

5. Fruity peel-off face masks
Again with the fruity scents! With my skin getting a lot drier as the weather gets colder, I have relied so much on face masks this month to keep my skin feeling refreshed. And I swear by peel off masks, as they're so much easier to use, less messy and I also find that they dry quicker too. I always feel like I have great skin whenever I use them, and you can buy some great ones from Superdrug for only 99p, or my other favourites include ones from H&M for only £1.99

So I've not really liked much this month, and hopefully that'll change for next month - I really want to be able to write about more for you all! Let me know what you have all been loving this month, or even what you haven't been loving!

I'll be back on Wednesday with another post for you all!
