♥ Review - Soap & Glory Clean on Me Shower Gel ♥


Today I am going to share with you my thoughts of my favourite shower gel, it's by Soap & Glory and if you have ever tried any of the Soap & Glory products then you will know how amazing there products feel, smell and well look...

Product -

"Fragrance with Soap & Glory's addictive signature scent and rich creamy texture, we're classifying Clean On Me™ Creamy Clarifying Shower Gel 500ml with 'must-have' status.
Apply a handful of Clean On Me to damp skin, rub it into a thick, luxurious lather, and then rinse.
Soap & Glory™ formula are not tested on animals, only very picky people." From product page at Boots Website.

How it Works? -

This shower gel isn't just a normal shower gel it's got a built in body lotion, now I still use a body moisturiser when I get out of the shower. But you really just use it it like a normal shower gel.. for once I don't know what to say!


Packaging -

Also like any Soap & Glory product it has super cute packaging with the colours of pink and silver. I also has a pump but it doesn't distribute a lot of product so therefore it takes a lot of pumps to get enough!

Price -

This is £5.50 from Boots.


Overall Opinion -

Overall I love this it leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. It is also a large bottle 500ml so it lasts a long time! I can't really think of much more to say but it really is amazing!

Hope you enjoyed! Have you ever tried this shower gel? Comment below!

♥ Furry Friends TAG - Part 2 ♥

Today I am coming to you with part 2 of my Furry Friends TAG, I will link part one here. I am going to get straight into the questions so ..... meet Macy! WARNING - Cuteness Overload! Lots of pictures!

1. What is your pets name?
Macy
 
2. What kind of pet is it and what breed?
 Macy is a golden Labrador

3. How long have you had your pet friend?
  1year and 3 months
 
4. How did you get your pet?
 We got her from a breeder that specialised in Labradors
 
5. How old is your pet?
1year 6 months

6. What are some quirky things about your pets personality?
She is very clingy whenever you get up even just to get a drink she has to follow you around and then she collapses to the ground and goes back to sleep - that is another thing she likes to sleep. She also is very attached to my other dog Lucie and follows her around and wants whatever she wants.

7. What does your relationship with your pet mean to you?
Like what I said in part 1, if you don't have a pet you won't understand but I am very protective of them and love them lots!

8. What are some of your favourite past times with your pet?
There's lots of little moments but nothing to much as we have only had her over the year but she is a "unique" doggie! But if I had to chose properly the car ride home where we nicknamed her korma as she is good at producing stinky smells! Oh and she cant really bark she sounds more like a seal when she does decide to make a sound!

9. What are nicknames that you call your pet?
Macy-Moo, Moo-Moo, Korma

 

I hope you enjoyed! Macy is defiantly a unique doggie and has her own wee personalty. If you like this type of post let me know and I can do more of them, also if you have any suggestions for posts you would like to see then let me know in the comments!

♥ Furry Friends TAG - Part 1 ♥

Hello... Today I am going to do a Tag that is a bit different but something I think you will all enjoy! I am doing a tag about my furry friends which happen to be my dogs, I have two dogs and so I will do this in two parts! Any before I start blabbing on I will get into the questions ... stay tuned for cute doggy pictures!


1. What is your pets name?
Lucie,
 
2. What kind of pet is it and what breed?
Black Labadour,

3. How long have you had your pet friend?
4years 7months,

4. How did you get your pet?
From a good quality breeder, we ordinary had her sister (we named her Keira) but she has a heart murmur so it was thought she would need extensive medical intervention within the next few years and she would need someone their for her 24/7 which we would find hard to do. We let the breeder know incase any of the other pups had it aswell, she said she would happily take Keira back and she would keep her and take care of her as she also has kennels and so she would be their when ever Keira need her and therefore it was better for us to have Lucie.
 

5. How old is your pet?
4 years 9 months

6. What are some quirky things about your pets personality?
She is quiet but she is very energetic when she wants to be, she loves her bones and teddies as much as she loves her bed. She also loves to just sit in the car and can't go past a car without trying to get in it which makes it difficult to go on long walks!

7. What does your relationship with your pet mean to you?
People that don't have dogs won't understand this or it may seem silly to them but it means alot both my dogs are like my babies and I am very protective of them!

8. What are some of your favorite past times with your pet?
We went on Holiday up north in the country side with my mum, dad, gran, me and my two dogs (Lucie and my doggie Sophie who has since pasted away) We had a massive garden and it was amazing to go on a hoiladay and not have to worry about your doggies being safe!

9. What are nicknames that you call your pet?
Lucie-Loo, Wosie (she is a scardy cat!)

*Lucie is a bit blad, she is allergic to 8 types of dust mites! Not 1 but 8! *

I hope you enjoyed, it was a bit different but change can sometimes be good! I will have part two up soon where you will be my "puppy" dog Macy, I will put a preview photo down below. I you like this change and I would if you would be this if you have a pet!

♥ Taylor Swift People's Choice Awards 2013 Inspired Make-up ♥

Since I have neglected uses for a bit I am coming back with a lot of passion and fire! And I thought I would treat you all to a make-up tutorial, I seen a photo of Taylor Swift at the People's Choice Awards and well as always she looked stunning! Her dress was by Ralph Lauren, her hair was tossed in a soft updo. Taylor's make-up was well flawless (of course) her eyes were smokey and the rest of her make-up was very natural.


- To start off I am going to use Benefit - The Porefessional Primer, this primer is great at minimising pores and is a great base for foundation and will also help your make-up last all day or night,
 
- I am then concealing any imperfections and dark circles as Taylor's skin is flawless, I am going to use Collection - Lasting Perfection Concealer,
 
- Taylor's skin was also very matt looking so I am using Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation and to set the foundation I am using Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder,

- Taylor's brows hadn't had much done to thing, all I am going to do is brush through them to get a nice shape and use a Mac - Wedge lightly to fill in my brows,

- From the looks of it, it doesn't look like Taylor's make-up artist did much or any contouring so I am just going to use a light bronzer just to give my skin a little bit of colour - I am using Bourjois Chocolate Bronzer,
 
- Taylor's blush was gorgeous and I am going to use Mac - LadyBlush Creme Blush, this gives a very similar effect,
 
- Taylor's highlight was very subtle so I am going to use a powder which is Elf - Healthy Glow Bronzing Powder in Luminance,
 
- I am then going to apply a primer all over my eye lids to make the pigments in the eyeshadow more vibrant, I am using my favourite Urban Decay - Primer Potion in Eden,
 

- Elf Six Eyeshadow Palette in Natural
- Mac Woodwinked Eyeshadow
-Coastal Scents 78 Eyeshadow and Blush Palette,
 
- I am then going to be using my favourite liquid liner Soap and Glory Supercat Liquid Liner, and I will be drawing a thin to medium line following my natural eye shape, you want it to be noticeable but not to thick.

- I am also putting Soap and Glory Smoulder Khol in Black on my waterline and blending it out with an deep purple brown eyeshadow from my Coastal Scents Palette,
 
-If you wanted you could put false eyelashes on but if not you can now curl your eyelashes and then apply lots of mascara on your upper and lower lash line. The mascara I am using is Clinque High Impact Mascara,
 
-For my lips I am going to exfoliate my lips and apply lipbalm so that my lips are ready for the lipstick,
 
- The lipstick I am using is Ysl - Rouge Volupte Lipstick in 1 Nude Beige,
 


I hope you enjoyed and if you are going to try this look then tweet me your pictures on my twitter the link will be in the side bar --->

Tell me what your favourite look from the Peoples Choice Awards and if you want me to re-create another look I am happy to take any suggestions in the comments below!

♥ Guest Post - PrettyLittleFashionista Favourite Nail Polishes ♥

Hello I’m Kirsty and I blog over at Prettylittlefashionista. Becki asked if I would write a post for her as she has been busy lately and therefore unable to post. Becki has written quite a few guest posts for me so I was happy to repay the favour. I thought I would share my current favourite nail polishes with you.
 
17 Gemstone
This nail polish is such a pretty burgundy colour and it is great for autumn and winter. It applies really well and lasts a good few days before it starts chipping. I only paid £1.49 as it was in the reduction section and it has been a great bargain.
Essie Bikini
I love this colour it is such a pretty blue. Although it is more of a spring/summer colour I have been wearing it a lot this month. I got this from Fragrance Direct for £1.99, I recommend this website they have some great discounts and the delivery is fantastic.
Essie Navigate Her
I am not usually a fan of green nail polishes but I find myself really loving this colour. Like all Essie nail polishes it applies really well and only 2 coats are needed. It doesn’t chip easily which is fantastic.
Barry M Vivid Purple
This is a gorgeous deep purple colour. I got this for Christmas and I have been in love with it ever since. Barry M nail polishes are of a high quality but they are only £2.99. This is a really lovely colour and I definitely recommend it.
 
* Update - Hi, Sorry I have been mia I haven't stopped for a minute! I had been busy becoming an auntie! And I am also begging something that is very big for me and that will be announced very soon! I will be resuming to normal three posts a week as of now! I would like to say a big thank you for Kirsty for writing this guest post for me! - Becki x * * I also can't get photos to work I will put the photo on my instergram! *
