A Short Review On "So Eco Face Brush Kit"





I discovered "So Eco Brushes" out of the blue, literally.  I saw the packaging and it caught my eye so, I picked it up, had a quick look and I was already drawn in to buy it! Scince I do need some new make up brushes I thought I'd give "So Eco Brushes" a try. 

First of all, the whole look of the brushes looked formal and easy to use. The brushes are all recycled and the makeup brush handle is made out of the sustainable material bamboo. Also, if you're not very good at knowing which make up brush is used for what, at the very end of the brush its labelled with what the brush is meant to be used for, for example, the big fluffy brush (which I call it) has "blush brush" written on the front ,so, I know that its meant to be used to apply blusher to my face!




Also, in the box, the brushes came with a little travel case, which, I thought was a nice and neat idea. Its good if you're going on holiday and just generally a good idea to keep all your brushes together and not get lost, because, most of my brushes get lost and vanish some how!










Ive tested out these brushes for about a week now and I'm very happy with my purchase of these brushes. They are incredibly soft and the bristles from the brush head doesn't fall out easily! I would recommend "So Eco Brushes" to anyone starting out new to make-up and brushes. 

I would give "So Eco Brushes" 4 stars out of 5
  
Stars given to this product out of 5: ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 

What could of made this product even better would be, getting more brushes in one box, maybe 6 brushes instead of just 4

I found the "face Brush Kit" On Amazon and it costs only £9.60 at the moment!

Lippys I like


Todays blog post is going to be about the lippys I like/ lip scrub.


The first product I will be reviewing about is the "Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub". This product is basically like an exploiter for your lips, all you do is rub it onto your lips, then, lick it off and apply some lip balm after. It really couldn't get any easier and it leaves your lips really soft,because, it rubs off any dead skin you may have on your lips. The BubbleGum lip scrub costs £5.50 To find the "Lush BubbleGum Lip Scrub" click on here

I apply this lip balm called "Balmi" after I use the lush "BubbleGum Scrub" ,because, i just find this lip balm works the best at completing the softness feel to your lips. The Balmi costs £3.33 To See The "Balmi Lip Balm" Please Click On Here


Infront is another lush product called "It started with a kiss". This product is a red lip tint, once applied to your lips it shows up a pretty strong red colour. I personally, try avoiding putting too much on at a time. It started with a kiss lip tint costs £5.95 Click here to see "It started with a kiss lip tint" -Lush

Behind the lush lip tint 'It started with a kiss' is a lip balm called "Babylips cherry me". Babylips is from the brand 'Maybelline' which I have mentioned before in my previous blog. Maybelline do  many different viriaties of babylips,but, the 'cherry me' is my favourite. Because, although it looks astonishingly red looking in the colour, it doesn't come out on your lips that strong, its got a hint of redness to it whilst moisturising your lips. This Babylips costs around £2.99 Click On Here To See The Maybelline's "Babylips Cherry Me"



This LipGloss is from the brand "BOBBI BROWN" Its a kind of coral colour (mix between orange and pink?) and its called "Tangerine". The one reason why I love the brand BOBBI BROWN is ,because, they do loads of different varieties of shades and colours and I surely guarantee, that you'll find a shade that will match your skin tone and complexion and will look generally amazing on you. This BOBBI BROWN LipGloss costs around £25.71 (UK Pounds)To See "BOBBI BROWN TANGERINE" LipGloss Click On Here (You might have to click through the colours to find it)


 This lippy is called "Lasting Finish Colour Rush" when put onto your lips, it does turn out a pretty strong pinky colour, so, I wouldn't recommend putting too much on your lips at a time, but, if you put on a little bit, it does turn out a nice colour pink on lips. The "lasting Finish Colour Rush" costs £5.99 To Find The "Rimmel Lasting Finish Colour Rush Balm" Click On Here


I like this this "Revlon" lippy ,because, it doesn't come out too red and drastic, it comes out on your lips as a soft red, not too much of a bold and strong red. The Revlon lippy costs £7.99 To See The "Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain" Please Click On Here

July Favourites

July favourites

First of all i would like to introduce some body spray's, yes, we all use it well, hopfuly!... 
Most of the body sprays i use are from "hollister", as you can see, I'm slightly obsessed with hollister, but, theres one 
that isn't from "hollister" and its from the brand "Soap&Glory". The body spray i like the most is probably the second in from the left hand side.
Which is this one
I think this a great refreshing smell especially for the upcoming summer! Also, its not so over powering that you're chocking to death whilst spraying it over your body/clothes, but, on the other hand strong enough to be smelt when close enough.   
The "Soap&Glory" scent (first bottle on the right hand side of the picture) is quite similar to the hollister special addition scent (pink hollister bottle third in from the left) Its got a slight fruity smell to it! which is nice, however, can get a little sickening personally if worn too frequently.
The "Socal" hollister body spray (first on the left) Is the original smell of hollister! it smells exactly like the shop! (and if you haven't been in hollister before you should! it smells amazing, but, be aware, it is pretty dark in there!) Finally, the last of the body sprays for this julys blog is... Hollister once again... "Beacon's Beach" spray. Now, this is a hard smell to define and put into words, I guess, it kind of smells like lynx with a twist to it!

Secondly, i would like to introduce you to my favourite facial make-up products.

All these products I use on an every day bases and these products are great for sensitive skin! Because, i have sensitive skin, at first i was worried that i might be allergic to these products, but, luckily i wasn't! (but, please, if you do have sensitive skin ,or, are allergic to any make-up products, do a test patch of each product before using them on your face! now, i wouldn't want you looking like a puffy puffer fish!
I first of all use "rimmel's BB cream" which is a great first base for evening out your skin. Its a sort of cream, but, with a hint of colour to it! Its not too drastic like foundation can be. I would recommend this product to anyone who's new to make-up because, its light and doesn't show up too strong, also, it lasts quite along time, you only really need to use a pea size dot for each section of your face you're applying it to. This product costs around £6.99 (in the UK) To see Rimmels BB cream click here

Secondly, i apply "maybelline dream matte mousse" Which is a perfect top cover over the "Rimme's BB cream" I Believe it just gives a smooth finish look to your face. As you can tell, "maybelline dream matte mousse" is a mousse which at first, i was un sure about, however, now, I've grown to like it! I've only recently brought this product and I love it already! This product is a little more on the expensive side its price is £7.65 To see Maybellines dream matte mousse click here
This concealer I absolutely love. Another great product from "Rimmel" I would describe this product like a concealer ,but, shaped as a lip stick, its easy just to pop into your bag when going out. If you've had a bad night sleep ,or, just got black circles under your eyes just dab a little bit of this concealer under your eyes and rub in and those circles that were under your eyes are gone! This concealers price is £4.49 Click here to find the Rimmels concealer
To finish off your look just use some of "Rimmel's stay matte" powder where you feel the need to, you don't need to use the powder ,but, i prefer too, I use the "body shop" brush to apply the powder. You can buy the powder from this link: Click here to see the Rimmel stay matte powder I believe the price is around about £3.99
I brought a little set of brushes from the body shop it was about £13.50 you can find them at this link: To find body shop mini brushes please click on here
