Though temperatures have been cooling lately, for the last couple of weeks the heat has been real. With highs in the mid-twenties and up, and the sun beating down hard every day, it’s fair to say that my skin has…
Empties: RIP Rimmel London Wonder’Fully Real Mascara.
There’s not really much to add from my previous post about this mascara. In short, this mascara changed my life (I’m not even kidding) and gave me the lashes of dreams! If you missed that post or are interested in…
Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Night Pads Extreme.
Acids are EVERYWHERE at the moment. It seems as though every beauty outlet, blogger and their dog is talking about the wonders of acids and how they can transform your skin. Among the sea of wonder acids that promise to…
Empties: RIP Beautiful Textures Rapid Repair Deep Conditioner.
Raise your hand if you believe in love at first sight. *Raises hand*. Why, you ask. Because of THIS deep conditioner. From the moment it touched my hair, I knew I was on to a winner. My hair reacted extremely…
Empties: RIP Fresh Vitamin Nectar Vibrancy-Boosting Face Mask.
Wow. Just wow! Was this face mask a game changer or what? Though I’d had my eye on this face mask for a little while, it took some time for me to muster the courage to actually buy it. There…
Nivea Express Hydration Body Lotion.

Empties: RIP Mega Growth Deep Conditioner.
When I first tried this deep conditioner last year as a sample, I remember being disappointed at how little product was in the sachet. Despite this, I found myself loving the conditioner, and knew that had there been more, I…
Why I Stopped Wearing Benefit They’re Real Mascara.
Aka why the grass is not always greener on the other side. The short answer: because it made me break out and I’m pretty sure it was behind my now infamous rash at the beginning of the year. It’s funny…
Empties: RIP Fresh Black Tea Firming Overnight Mask.
While I’m admittedly probably too young to properly reap the benefits of this mask, the sayings: “always be prepared” and “prevention is the greatest cure” assures me that when I’m reviewing this product again in twenty years, my thoughts will…
Empties: RIP Soft & Beautiful Botanicals Ultra Nourishing Deep Conditioning Repair Masque.
Where do I start? Perfectly thick, creamy, nourishing, soft and just an absolute dream, I don’t know where my hair would be without this repair masque. When I first shared my mid-use review, I was clearly in love with the…
