Him & Her Gifts

Hey Fabulous you, if you follow me on twitter you'd know it was my anniversary on the 17th, my husband and me did a little gift exchange so id thought id share them with you. I gifted my husband the Dior Fahrenheit gift set with includes Eau de Toilette 50ml, Shower Gel 50ml & Deodorant Spray 50ml & Pouch. Its his favourite so got him that. He got me a Prada Candy & Lacoste shades. Iv been wanting the Prada Candy for a while so I couldn't wait till my anniversary so actually got it few weeks before my anniversary but its an anniversary gift. I am not the best person to describe smells so il give that a skip but if your looking for gifts for your special someone or a family member/friend id defiantly suggest checking these out.


DIOR Fahrenheit £44.94

I would suggest getting the 100ml as I was very disappointed with how small the 50ml was.

PRADA Candy £36.50

The shades are from TK Maxx but I cant find it on the website. The original price was £99.99 however being sold for £24.99, such a bargain.

Hope you liked this short little post. Let me know if you think you'd like to buy any of these for your loved ones.

L'OREAL Skin Perfection 15 Second Miracle Cleaning Oil : REVIEW

Hey Fabulous You, how have you been? Iv been extremely busy had no time what so ever to blog. Have so much to blog about but just no time to post it up. Anyways I am not going to go too much into all of that and bore you,il get straight to the review.

I usually don't fuss about makeup remover as I love using my olive oil or just plain warm water. So I personally don't even know much about the makeup remover out there in stores. Was in superdrug the other day and was looking around when this caught my eyes. I had no intensions on buying it as I don't use makeup remover like I said. However there was a little voice in me that said 'go on try it'. So I was an obedient little girl and bought it. Dint know how to use it, as in was I to use it directly with my fingers or on a cotton pad. I tried it both ways & worked in both ways.

About The Product

Its a cleansing oil which works in 15 seconds. Instantly dissolves make-up, even waterproof. Re-balances and purifies for healthy looking skin. Lightweight and non-greasy. Its suitable for all skin types.

My Thoughts

I wont really say it works in 15 seconds but it works really fast. Yes it dissolves make-up really well including waterproof makeup. I could be wearing the heaviest makeup and its removes it all. It does leave my skin feeling cleaned & makeup free. It is very lightweight, and glides on your face really smoothly like an oil is suppose to. I don't agree with the non-greasy bit. Now I have oily skin & this is an oil so its gets even more greasy for me. Even thou it leaves my face greasy it still does make my face feel & look clean. Besides the greasiness it does really well on my oily skin. After applying it to my eye area it does leave my eye a little blurred haha but any oil would do that. Doesn't burn the eyes at all. Has a lovely fragrance, I just love the fragrance.

How I Use It

I use it in two ways actually. One is by applying it on a cotton ball, keeping the cotton ball pressed to my eyes for some seconds till it soaks into the eye makeup & then just wipe it off my eyes. Second is like how it says on the instructions of the bottle, pump up some on my finger tips & massage it all over my face concentrating more on my eye area, and wipe off with a cotton ball. Now the instructions on the bottle says to rinse off with warm water after use, I don't do that, I just use a wipes to give my face one gentle wipe down & it does perfectly well for me. To get the little bits from the corners of my eyes I just take a dry cotton bud n wipe it off. You do need to be careful when pumping the oil out of the bottle cause you get quite a lot of oil pumping out with each press.

Would I Repurchase It?

Yes I definitely would. Its an excellent product to have. Its my 1st ever makeup remover iv ever bought & have no regrets at all.

Those are views on the L'OREAL Skin Perfection 15 Second Miracle Cleaning Oil. Hope you found it helpful. If your looking for a new makeup remover to try il definitely suggest to try this. Apologies on the second picture of how it works, but it was my only way to show you exactly what it does. Let me know if you liked the review. Thank you for reading.

My June Empties

Hello fabulous you, how are you doing this lovely weekend? I went to have my shower this morning and realise I had quite a few things in my cupboard that have finished. Dint think anything of it really, but while having my shower (where all the real thinking takes place) I thought why not do a post on these beauties as I love most of them. Wouldn't be fair enough if I love them so much and not share them with you. I don't have too many empties but enough to have a post put up. SO il get straight to it.

Cleansing Wipes by Sainsbury's, Nivea-In-Shower Moisturiser,VO5 heat defence, Aussie 3min miracle, Sure deodorant, Exfoliating face scrub, Peaches & Clean face wash.

Soap & Glory Peaches and Clean 4-1 Wash-Off Deep Cleansing Milk£8.00

OMG if you know my blog you will know how much I love this. I am so disheartened its finished, infact I finished this wayyyyy to fast. I love it so much that I used it like it was running out of fashion. Use it as a face wash, face mask, spot reducer, makeup remover. Its my all time favourite beauty product. I have been to the nearest boots about 5-6 times now and they don't have it but they do online. It's pricey but for the amount you can do with it I would say its completely worth it. You can actually make this last longer unless your like me who cant get enough of it if you like it.

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Reconstructor Deep Conditioner £4.99

This is no stranger to many. The bottle says 'helps transform dry, damaged hair into manageable & shiny locks in 3minutes hmmmmmm do I agree with that bit?? ID say yes I do to a large extent. Don't expect drastic changes in any of the above but yes u will notice a difference. It does have a fragrance. I cant really say much about this product as m still getting to know it more if you know what I mean.

Nivea In-Shower Body Moisturiser £2.37

I can go on with praising this product. I just love it. My very 1st blog post was a review on this product. Its perfect for you if your a busy body who most times doesn't have time to moisturise or is in such a rush forgets to moisturise. Just leave this in your shower, apply after your shower, rinse off & trust me your ready to go. Even after shaving apply this and you don't need to moisturise once your done. Doesn't leave your skin feeling greasy or covered in a layer. A product I will continue to buy.

VO5 Frizz Free Crème £3.89

Not a fan of this. Wont be repurchasing this. Its doesn't nothing it says it will do. Dos nothing for my hair atleast. I just use it on days when m at home after a hair wash. I wouldn't use this and go out anywhere. Leaves my hair looking greasy, feeling greasy. Just doesn't do it for me. Glad its over. Tube says it leaves your hair super sleek however not on my hair. Does have heat defence in it. Fail for me.

Superdrug Vitamin E Face Scrub £2.99

Its a superdrug make, does my face so good. Its a face scrub that consist of oatmeal. It exfoliates really well. Doesn't leave my skin feeling dry & stretched. Just a little bit of it can be used on the entire face. My face feels soft, clear & fresh after every use. I use it once a week. I have few dry patches on the apples of my cheeks, this doesn't bother it at all. Will defiantly repurchase this.

Sure for Women £0.99

Sorry I couldn't find the link to the exact one I use, but this was the closet to it. I cant do without this. I always have this with me. it just makes me feel sooo freash on your hottest or coldest days. Lovely fragrance. Lasts long, so cheap In price. Cant go wrong with this at all.

Cleansing Wipes by Sainsbury's

Sorry I couldn't find the link to this one aswell. Its a cleansing wipe by Sainsbury's itself, cant find it on the siansbury website don't know why. This happened by chance, I was at my aunt's place and wanted to wipe my face as I had forgotten to carry my face wipes with me, and she gave me this to use & I loved it instantly. It removes eye makeup so easily with out having to rub or scrub. So gentle on your skin. Its the best face wipes iv used (besides baby wipes) Will look around for the link and leave it as a comment below.

These are my empties for the month of June. If you'b done a blog post on your empties leave a comment below with the link id love to read it. Have a lovely day & weekend, m off to make best use of this amazing weather.

The Battle Between Concealers

I love concealers. I remember concealer being my very first makeup product I ever bought. Unfortunately I dint know the difference between cream & liquid concealers. At the moment I don't have a major collection of concealers but have 5 which I think is quite a lot (or maybe not)The concealers I currently have our Rimmel Stay Matte, Miss Sporty liquid concealer, Collections 2000, Maybelline Fitme & Boi-Ing from Benefit.

From Left to Right
Rimmel Stay Matte, Miss Sporty liquid concealer, Boi-Ing, Maybelline Fitme, Collections 2000


Rimmel Stay Matte

My very first concealer ever. Like I said before since I dint know the difference between cream & liquid concealers I dint know this wasn't the one for me. I am not going to talk negative about it just cause it dint suit me, if I knew it wasn't for me I wouldn't have bought it. If you have dry under eyes, this isn't for you cause it tends to get cakey & doesn't blend smoothly. I have even tried applying it just as iv applied my moisturiser thinking it would blend in smoothly but unfortunately it doesn't. It gets patchy on the dry areas. I have tried using it to cover blemishes and dint do me good either. This just isn't for dry skin.

Miss Sporty Liquid Concealer

My guardian Angel. Well I don't know how to explain how much I love this concealer. Blends in so smoothly under the eye. Covers blemishes really well. Gives a good coverage. Lasts longs, doesn't leave face cakey or patchy. A little bit goes a long way. Comes with Vitamin E & C. I don't like a completely coverage look, so on many occasions I have used this concealer as a foundation. I have mixed the concealer with my moisturiser and applied it all over my face and its gives my skin look covered yet natural. Even when applied all over my face it doesn't leave my face looking cakey at anytime of the day. Its a concealer I would always rebuy.

Boi-Ing

This was gifted to me when I bought a mobile. I don't think I would have ever bought it on my own as its so pricey. Id love to own every single Benefit product but unfortunately my pocket doesn't allow it. I am glad I dint buy it cause then it would have been a waste as I am not a fan of this concealer. Doesn't blend smoothly, I find, it drags my under skin when trying to apply it. Tried many different techniques to apply it thinking it would work one day, but unfortunately it hasn't. So for me its doesn't nothing good.

Maybelline Fitme Concealer

Its a concealer I don't love nor do I hate. I don't know if its the concealer or my skin but there are days its glides on so smoothly and there are days when it just makes me look like a freshly plastered wall. To get it right I have to do a lot of blending. Its not a concealer I can just apply under the eye rub/tap my fingers across and it sets in. I have to blend it really well. If I drag it under the eye it sets into my fine lines making it look larger than anything. I have to really gently tap it and blend it in for it to set well. So wont be buying this again.

Collections 2000

The reason why I bought this is cause I was looking to try a new concealer and all I could hear and read people talk about was collections 2000 concealer. I like this concealer. Blends well on my skin. Can get a bit cakey if not powdered properly. Just a little covers quite a lot. Covers blemishes really well. Fills in the fine lines under my eyes making my skin even. Works best as a brightener. Over all a good concealer. Will repurchase it.

These are my favourites & not so favourite concealers. What's your favourite concealer? Comment down below and let me know.
