Lush Inhale Exhale Bath Bomb

I was happy to see a nice small bath bomb in my local Lush as I keep finding all these over the top ones and I wanted something nice and relaxing to pop into my bath. So in comes Inhale Exhale which is a nice relaxing bath bomb with Grapefruit, Lemon and Citrus oils infused with Rose is a nice bath bomb to help you relax.


It left my water a quite a funny colour almost like I was covered in mud and had washed it all off but inside the bomb was a little hand written note which I thought was lovely and a nice surprise!




I noticed it had one side which seemed to fizz rather quick which from the website was the Inhale half and then the Exhale half slowly dissolved making the bath indulgent and making me not want to leave! I found it really relaxed me and even though it had quite a lot of citrus scented oils it was quite a musky almost sexy smelling bath bomb. I would 100% pick this little one up again and for £3.25 it won't break the bank either!

#OxMeet A Day in Oxford

I was lucky enough to be able to attend a Bloggers event in Oxford last week which was hosted by the lovely +Adrienne Third she had planned a lovely day and I had a lot of fun! We met at Wagamama's in Oxford where I had chicken tama rice which was extremely filling and really nice, it was a nice place to meet as we were able to say hello and have a little chat before heading off.



We then walked to Crabtree and Evelyn  were we could have manicures and ask the staff about product as well as having a mooch at all there products we were also given a goodie bag. It was a great chance for me to explore as I've always missed the shop and walked passed but it turned out to be lovely in there and I can't wait to go back and buy some bits!



We then headed to Costa for a little sit down and chat before heading over to Lush were we could have a skin care reading or a go at there colour wheel. We were also treated to cupcakes and rose lemonade which was a lovely treat. I had a great skin care reading were I could ask questions and I was also given samples of some products to test at home before buying the full size product. We then got some goodie bags and heading of home!



It was a fantastic day and I had so much fun meeting local bloggers!

Browdrama Review

I have a love hate relationship with my brows sometimes they look fab and I'm really pleased and then other days I just want to shave them off! It partially because I have dyed my hair so much now my natural hair is a lot darker then my eyebrows meaning I have to draw them on or I'll look silly. I was always a pencil girl but then while in Superdrug I was having a look at the eyebrow palette's when the Browdrama from Maybelline caught my eye.



I picked up shade medium brown as that is what I would class my hair as and I wanted to create a brow look which matched my hair. The Browdrama is a Sculpting Brow Mascara so the brush is just like a mascara brush which the same sort of liquid that you would get in a mascara. I find as it has a large brush is makes it really easy to use, I brush is along my eyebrow and then just take my finger and very gentle brush over blending in again to dark or to light areas.



I love how it makes my brows look and feel, I was worried that putting on a liquid it would go hard on my brow and look unnatural but it didn't it left my brows soft. It also shaped my brows and added hair to areas I needed some more hair added. I was impressed as it lasted all day and didn't wear of after a day at work or a day walking round down. The only downside is how hard it is to take of, even my bioderma has trouble and I feel the need to really scrub at my brows which worries me about what damage I may be doing!



17 Blow Out Mascara

This mascara was a product in my Boots Beauty Calendar and has been a bit of a nightmare product, I'm just not a fan of the whole mascara and not really impressed by there range of make up so I would 100% say I have a love hate relationship with 17 as a brand.



The mascara is a Volumise Sculpt Tease Mascara with 12x volume in colour black. The one thing I hate about this product is the brush, it's way to big and holds way to much product so when applying to my eyes I got product everywhere! and almost stabbed myself in the eye. Another thing is the overall size of the product is rather chunky and big so pretty much takes up a large place in my make up bag. I also found the black wasn't much to rave about either it came out nice but for a mascara that is pretty big headed I would of thought it would be a richer darker black.



If you want to find or test this product out for yourself it's available at Boots, Has anyone else just had no luck with this mascara or is it just me?


Right Guard Deo for Women

A bit of a different post but today I thought I would review a Deodorant, I've had problems in the past with deo's and am always weary of trying out new ones as my armpits are super sensitive and if I use the wrong product it causes a reaction so bad I'm left in pain for around 2 weeks. So for me finding the right deodorant is almost a beauty priority, I came across Right Guard and thought I would give it ago after another beauty blogger had review it.



It boasts to have 72 hour protection, tackles wetness and protects against white, yellow and oily stains. I would say after using it for around 2 months that the statements are quite correct and I've experience so problems of major concern with this deo. It has a nice neutral scent and isn't to strong and overpowering, I did however find it seemed to take ages to soak in so I was left in just my bra for around 30 minutes or so on quite a number of occasions!

I would 100% recommend this product and as it's available in most low cost stores like Savers and Body Care it costs around £1-£2 which is great for a product that works so well.
