Handy Beauty Tools

I frequently talk about makeup and skincare but something that is far less talked about is the tools which we use behind the scenes. So here are 12 of my most used beauty tools.

Top 10 Under £10 - Makeup

It's all well and good being recommended expensive high end beauty products to try but let's be honest we all want to be able to find amazing products that actually do what you want at affordable prices! So here are my top 10 makeup products easily available from Boots or Superdrug for under £10.

Sunday Stuff : Makeup Clear Out

I think its really important to regularly go through your makeup collection, regardless of whether its small or large, and throw out old products that you no longer use or are long past their expiry date.

Review: Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara

The Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara is currently very popular in the world of beauty. When it comes to mascaras I'm pretty picky. Mascara is my holy grail makeup product, and I think a good one makes a world of difference to how awake and fresh you look. For a mascara to 'wow' me it must lengthen, volumise, separate, hold a curl, last all day (and night) and not flake or smudge on me. A lot to ask for, yes I know, but I never said I was low maintenance!

Sunday Stuff: Makeup Sponge Cleaning

One of the questions that I'm most frequently asked is how to clean a makeup sponge. So I thought I'd dedicate a post to it as I'm sure there are many of you who would like to know some ways to keep your makeup sponge in tip-top condition and bacteria free.

Review : First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads

Some skincare products take a while to show results, however this is an exception! The Facial Radiance Pads from First Aid Beauty are amazing... and I don't say that lightly! I noticed a difference in my skin after only one use! There are 60 pre-soaked round pads in the tub that exfoliate, tone and brighten your skin as the packaging suggests.

My skin looked more glowy and felt unbelievably smooth the following day! I couldn't believe the results were so quick! I've been using them for about 3 weeks now and I know they will be something I will continue to repurchase as I've been using them every evening after cleansing my skin before applying any serums, oils or moisturisers to my face.

I really notice a difference if I forget to use these as my skin doesn't look as healthy and glowing.

If you have bumpy, uneven skin, or would like your skin to be more radiant then  I would highly recommend you give these a try.
