Fake Up The Wake Up! | Benefit Fake Up Concealer in Light

Published by Danniella Josephine

This review has been overdue for a very long time! *slaps wrist* I know you will have already seen TONS of reviews of this already buuut did those reviews feature deliciously funny humour and GIFs? Tehe. If you cast your minds back now, I attended my very first blogger event – the Benefit Fake Up Launch Party. If you can’t remember me waffling on about that, here is the link. At that event I was very kindly gifted with all three shades of Fake Up… Today I am going to be reviewing Benefit Fake Up Concealer in Light. Click Read …

Lifestyle of The RICH AND FOAMOUS? Not For Me, Thanks…

Published by Danniella Josephine

Can I start off by saying I’m so sorry for going AWOL on you all last week – I had such an awful week at work and I couldn’t face sitting down and blogging. As it’s Bank Holiday tomorrow (which means no work, yay!) my mood has considerably improved and the creative juices are flowing. They say: Almond and honey milks, oat extract, and our soft and frothy M-SUDS™ MoistureBoost system leave skin clean, supple and irresistibly scented. The next best thing to waking up to the smell of fresh baking is taking a shower with RICH & FOAMOUS™ Body …

Worth The Hype #1

Published by Danniella Josephine

We bloggers love to hype up beauty products. When we find something good, everyone has to know. *Lumpy Space Princess voice* ERMAGERDTHISPRODUCTHASCHANGEDMYLIFEYOUGUYSYOUGOTTABUYTHISLIKERIGHTNOW. Today (or perhaps tonight?) I thought I would share with you the products that I love and that I think are worth the hype. This in turn is indeed “hyping” them up. What are we like, eh? Just can’t help ourselves.. The Soap and Glory Breakfast Scrub is my favourite scrub ever. It is apparently Soap and Glory’s toughest, grittiest and perhaps scrubiest scrubscrub (that isn’t a typo… it’s just funny to say) and is right at the …

Oops! I Seem To Have Slipped and Fallen For The Hype… | Bioderma Sensibio H20 Micelle Solution

Published by Danniella Josephine

Last month as part of my cruelty free series, I reviewed the B. Pure Micellar Water. Despite it being £4.99 and BUAV cruelty free I didn’t like it *boos from the audience*. I mentioned in my review that as I didn’t get on with it, I was now wary of trying Bioderma in case the same happened again. Some little wizards saw this and offered me the chance to try it for myself. Bioderma Sensibio H20 Micelle Solution ツ is a 3-in-1 cleansing water that promises to eliminate impurities without drawing out moisture from the skin. Using soothing and decongesting ingredients, …

ECOTOOLS Cellulose Facial Sponges

Published by Danniella Josephine

I thought I would do a rather quick and snappy post about a new addition to my skincare routine – the ECOTOOLS Cellulose Facial Sponges. I received a sample of Liz Earle Deep Cleansing Mask with a Cleanse and Polish purchase. With that, came some facial sponges that you were encouraged to remove the product with. I was hooked. I began to use the sponges for other products (and the Liz Earle mask has been shunned to the back of the cupboard). During my cruelty free month I was racing around Boots, excusing purchases “for the blog” (like we all …

Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream

Published by Danniella Josephine

I’ve been blogging for over a year now and I still don’t have a clue what my cuticles do apart from ruining my Talon Tales posts… *hmph* They say: Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream gives your needy nails a helping hand. Nourish and moisturise nails and cuticles with this intensive, natural treatment. A touch of lemon oil makes your nails smell incredibly clean, healthy and beautiful, naturally. I say: Oh cuticles, y u straggle and make my nails look so grimy? My friend Brittany told me that you were supposed to push them back or snip them off… This lead to the following chain of …

Figs and Rouge Wild Cherry Balm

Published by Danniella Josephine

Put down that Vaseline! They say: Ultra-hydrating & Multi-tasking. Figs and Rouge 100% Natural – Nourishing Balm keeps lips delicious & super soft throughout the day. I say: I had seen Figs and Rouge floating around on a few blogs and it wasn’t long before I had given into the hype. It’s inevitable. There is no point in me attempting to fight it any more. I suffer with dry, scabby, completely unattractive lips and most lip balms just do not work. I’ve tried Blistex, Vaseline (ugh), Chapstick, Nivea… the only one that has worked so far has been my beloved Palmer’s Cocoa …

Benefit b.right Triple Performing Facial Emulsion

Published by Danniella Josephine

Dearie me, it has been a while since I popped a review on here isn’t it?! *hangs head in shame* Hopefully this post will make you forgive me… *puppy dog eyes* I do not like the cone of shame. They say: You may not know you’re dehydrated, but your skin does. Benefit b.right triple performing facial emulsion SPF 15 PA++ hydrates, protects & comforts the skin with an oil-free, lightweight formula I say: If you trawl through the dusty archives of my blog, you will see that one of the first, very badly written posts was a review of the b.right …

You ignore the obvious signs, kid yourself – “just one more day!”. This is my product. (I’ve been getting a bit creative with PicMonkey lately.. ooh la la!) They say: Maybelline Dream Matte Powder Ultra fine pressed powder, delivers an amazing air-soft feel and silky texture Magically matches skins texture, never dusts up or settles into lines. I say: I think …

Review: Soap & Glory The Scrub Of Your Life Body Scrub

Published by Danniella Josephine

Ever since I wrote this post (another post to rewrite… *cries*), I can’t stop singing BABY LET ME SCRUB YA DAAAAHN, THERE’S SO MANY WAYS TO BUFF YA so much so that I should just hurry up and release it as my first single. They say: It’s thick, it’s foamy, it’s fantastically fresh, it’s satisfyingly stuffed with just the right ratio of scrubbing beads. Scented with our Original Pink™ fragrance. I say: I’m slowly but surely working through the Soap & Glory scrub ranges. I need to have a scrub in my bath time routine or I begin to feel …
